Spiderman tattoos and why they're awesome...

Well, I'm a Spiderman fan. Not so much of the movies (although I did enjoy the first one), but the comics have always entertained me. I've even got a few classic collectible ones. I think the most fan-boy-esque Spiderman possession is a very cool Spiderman baseball jersey. With all that though, there is no way I could ever beat this guy. His tattoos are a statement of love that I could never hope to match. Take a look:

Now that is a hardcore fan right there, let me tell you! If you want more info, take a look here.

-Salem
I've finally down-graded from fan-boy to fan. Thank god for tattoo freak!

Connections...

So today has had an interesting start for me. We got a visit from a long lost family member today (my cousin to be specific) and I was informed about her family. Turns out that I'm rather closely and directly related to Brisbane's current head of the Ethical Standards Command, Assistant Commissioner Alan Davey. Indeed, he falls into the category of second cousin. This comes as a bit of a shock to me for many obvious reasons...

Is it ethical of me to wear a bomb-squad shirt? I hope so...

Not that he'll see it here...

Well, this is getting sent all over the place and there's a good chance that you've already seen it, but I still like it. I'm primarily posting it up for Visure, but to be honest, he probably won't watch it here. He can't get to the interwebs from his workplace and since he doesn't bother checking much that's happening on-line at home, his membership here is mostly honorific (that means he's a member only in the spirit of including one of my closest friends in my activities). Anyhow, this one is for you Vis, I hope you like it if you ever see it here.



If it wasn't that they use VB, I'd swear that this was perpetrated by the people behind the "Australia" episode of the Simpsons...

The More You Know!

cash advance

Just thought you'd like to see how we stack up to the other web-sites. Aren't we amazing? I think we could have hit 'Genius' if I hadn't posted that story about the bear. Live and learn I suppose. We'll try again next year/100 posts, whichever comes first I guess.

I Be Postin' Like A Pirate! Yarr!

So it be International Talk Like a Pirate Day. This be a good thing. Me whole office has been Pirate-a-fied, from the buxom young lass at reception to the bilge-rats down below deck. I have me flint-locks and cutlass with me and the Jolly Roger is flyin' high above me desk, yarr!

I hope all you lubbers out there got to enjoy the day as much as me and me crew here have been. It's good to be the Pirate King!

The lass in reception can count herself lucky too. I were goin' to post her picture up here, but knowin' she's not up for those kinds of shenanigans, I be decidin' against that course of action. Yarr, 'tis a shame, she's a comely lass...

-Cap'n Salem
Later, I'll be seein' if I can get me hands on that reception lass' booty! Yarr!

Zombie Plan v1.1

Has this ever happened to you?

Well it still hasn't happened to me yet either. It's ok though, Zombie Plan v1.0 is still waiting in the wings. This is just a quick addendum so I can't be accused of forgetting anyone. Turns out that some of the people that have heard about our zombie plan are thinking that we may be on to something. That's fair because I can assure you that we are on to something. As such, we may have a more crowded house than I first thought. Our newest member, Sierra Julliette has decided that we're so well prepared that she'll be making her way over on her dirt-bike. I'm ok with this to be truthful. Anyone with even minor Moto-X abilities has a marketable skill when it comes to a zombie apocalypse. Let's hope she can make it to HQ without getting zombified. Good luck and welcome aboard.

We also may need to add one of my co-workers (I understands that she wishes to be known here as Crumples), this is mostly because I just don't trust the flimsy walls of her house to withstand even a glancing blow from a zombie baby, let alone a full sized one. The hard part here will be getting her through the door as our own zombie butler (a lovely chap that goes only by the name of Victor), creeps her out a bit and I can only see that getting worse during an assault from the walking dead. Still, she's tough, so I'm sure that when it comes time to decide which is worse, Victor or having her brains eaten, that she'll be able to overcome any misgivings about our butler.

With the extra newcomers, I'm sure we'll have to develop a few extra rules and maybe step up our supply raiding plans, but these are minor things. One of us will go into a bit of detail when we have a clearer idea of how the adjustments need to be handled. We're a capable kind of group so I think we're up to the challenge. My only worry now stems from a decreasing space-per-person outlook. I'm going to have to go with Frejak and Kahn though on this one as they are already formulating plans to bridge the gap between our own lovely home and the house nextdoor. Be sure to stay on the lookout for Zombie Plan v1.2 in the near future.

Come to Zombaid! Help us raise funds to complete our Zombie Fort.

New Blood

So, Kahn told me that we have a new reader. This is just a quick welcome and "Hallelujah, we're getting through!". Ok, so it's not a big audience, but that's fine. If we manage to help even one person prepare for the zombie apocalypse, then that's one less zombie that we have to kill. I should mention that we here at MB actually endorse zombie killing and zombie apocalypses wherever we can. Let's face it people, we're violent by nature and zombie killing is really the only kind of people killing that can be unequivocally deemed legal.

This is getting off topic though. Welcome once again to our new reader. Hope you enjoy your stay here and please note that if you feel like your brain has been punched with a bright red swingline stapler wielded by an angry Muppet dressed in drag and whistling 'Crazy on you', then I have achieved the desired effect.

-Salem
I wish I had a picture of that Muppet, I really do.

Rock Concert Movement #237:

Taking the audience on a Jungian journey into the collective unconscious, using the shadow as a metaphor for the primal self that gets repressed by the modern persona and also by using an underground setting and labyrinth office design to represent both the depths of the psyche and the dungeon-like isolation of our increasingly mechanistic society which prevents people from finding satisfying work or meaningful connections with others.
