DUMB DAILY NEWS

Get into it, Get involved...

No Quarter is a hell of a blog. The latest post is concerned with the US Media's overwhelming coverage of the student massacre at VATech and their ulitmate diversion from what should get top billing on every Headline News Update, THE SENSLESS AND CONTINUOUS DAILY MASSACRE OF IRAQI CITIZENS!!

Late Night with Barack Obama

Last night Barack Obama was a guest on Late Night with David Letterman. I'm not sure who I came away liking better. Letterman can be a smart fellow when he wants to be. I found that Obama has got some brains also, or at least he's really good at faking it. That's not to say my vote is going to be an Obama vote. I'm just saying I could picture him as president and it made me feel like it might be a nice change to not have some bumbling retard as the spokesman for this country of ours. The more I think about how badly Bush has fucked up this world, the antsier I get sitting around waiting to get him out of office. In my haste, I managed to find some time to make this collage of the effect George Bush has had on this little round world of ours.

Returned to Sender

Every so often we run into problems at the post office. For various reasons we have stuff that you ordered sent back. Usually it's because you forgot to give us your complete address. We have a few returns sitting here at headquarters. If you've not received your order after a few weeks, drop us an email cause it may have been returned.

The Black Pearl. Arrrgh...

If you've ever have the pleasure of travelling to Grand Cayman, a lonely little 21 mile island in the middle of the Caribbean, make sure you make your way over to the Black Pearl Skatepark, Johnny Depp's private skatepark. He dresses like a drunk pirate and skates a longboard with a sail on it. There's even a three legged dog that gives you rum and punch.



Since TVM002 has now sold somewhere around 10 million copies, we were able to fly first class to Grand Cayman for a drunken weekend of beer bongs, drunk christ airs and Dan Drehobl. Oh, shit, wait...nevermind; that's the Shotgun Video from Thrasher.



Ok, we really went though, and to put it plainly, the place is just heavenly. The second biggest cement skatepark on the earth (it was the first, but there's always some asshole who's gotta build something bigger, and of course we're heading there next); it's still so big that you would be wise to stay for a week.

Kylesa's Evil Clay Army

TVM002 was supposed to feature a sweet little interview and live show from Kylesa. Turns out the sound on the live part kinda sucked pretty bad. All we had was an interview, and that's not what we're all about. We cut the piece in hopes to make something amazing in the future. However, if we hear from enough of you Kylesa fans, we might stream the piece here at Transitionvm.com.

Until that happens, here's their brand fuckin' new video for Hollow Severer.

Clearification

I've been waiting to post this, one of my favorite websites, for a while. It's like the time had to be right. I selfishly had to absorb all of the humor out of it first and then, and only then could I allow you guys to get in on it. I suggest just sitting there and listening for a bit and the watching the short movies. Then go back and do it again.

Bouncing Boobies

No, TVM hasn't turned into a porn site; however, seeing as we are skateboarders by birth, we are very interested in the laws of physics. Considering that we also have a fondness for boobies, we found this website to be most educational. Check out the "Boobie Bouncer" to truly gain an undertanding of a ladies breasteses on the go.

Too Smart for TVM!!

If you live in Gainesville, you probably have at least one boring friend that sits at Leos all day and does the crossword; two for 25 cents in the Florida-Times Union... err, uh... not that I'd know from experience or anything. Even if you don't, I'm sure this boring behavior is universal. So, this friend of yours thinks he's real smart cause he can do the LA Times on a friday. Think again, asshole! Solve this puzzle at 16across.com (click the image above) and the next time you're ordering your soy chai latte, turn up your nose and scoff at the dim and pretentious buffoon unaware of your superior command of lexicons and syntactic processes.

Danish Anarchopunx Don't Fuck Around!

In the last few days punx in Copenhagen, Denmark have been battling the police in protest of their squat, Youth House, after it was siezed, vacated and handed over to a church organization. Here's the story from the side of the anarcho group and here's the story as reported by the man, CNN.

TVM's sites of the week.

I could spend all day reading the plethora of interviews on Punkbands.com, including one by yours truly. As a matter of fact, I really just go on there everyday and read the TVM interview, then I look in a mirror and say "you go, girl!" Is that wrong?

This is a site designed for children, but seeing how poking a dead cat with a stick is still more fun than going to the opera or looking at furniture, we're completely addicted to linerider. If you're retarded like we are, just hit play and choose the pencil.



I originally visited BoingBoing thinking I had found a link to another amazing Asian porn site; however, I was pleasantly suprised to find one of the best info blogs on the wacky world wide web.

In the case that you're really smart, here's TVM translated into french.

You like those punk bands, huh?

Check out Klaus' giant cataloge of live band fotos.

I'd write "This billboard is a bomb!"

Now isn't this something right out of Minority Report? Last month, Mini placed interactive electronic billboards advertising its upcoming new Mini Cooper models at locations in New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Miami, and they're able to read RFID information off a key fob the company's distributed to Mini owners.

The owners themselves specify whatever information (irreverent or otherwise) they want to be shown on the billboards, and when it's transmitted to the billboards, that phrase is displayed up in lights for all to see.

Seems like a pretty good idea until you realize that you're carrying around a tracking device just to have some fun with a billboard or two. Weird. (gizmodo.com)

AM! Still loves Julie, and Brooklyn!

Yes, it's true, we're not all as hip as the Williamsburg kids who walk into light poles because their noses are buried deep inside the new issue of MRR. If we were, we would surely have been at this secret AM! show a few nights ago. One more reason to thank the sweet baby jesus for the internet!

Ian takes the stand against the proposed DC curfew.

Kickflip a Fucking Nissan!

Seriously, could tv get any better than this? I know, there could be a lot more sex and violence in this commercial for you non-skaters, but if you've ever gotten a hole on the side of your shoe from ollieing, then you know what I mean.
