Well kids, we made it to fifteen! I can’t believe you have tolerated me for this long, but I tend to think it’s only because you like seeing us open your stuff on camera, and not because you think I am a talented on-air personality. Either way, we are fifteen strong now, and are aiming for a “Sweet 16″ sometime in the near future. I can’t thank you all enough for all of the sweet stuff that you send us. We have gotten some great (and, to be fair, some not so great) gifts over the last year-and-a-half, and we could not have done it without all of your love and support. (more…)
Today is my 30th birthday, and as Trip Taylor so eloquently put it a couple of days ago: “Welcome to Deadsville.” I can’t say that I totally understand what he means, but I do think he’s jealous that he’s got a decade on me. I tried to tell him that he’s lived more than I, and trust me, he has… but I digress. My usual rambling text will be cut short this time and I’ll just let the video do the talking so I can go out and party like I am still 29. We literally have an action-packed mailbag this time with lots of special appearances, ranging from our usual suspects (like Crash and Wolfie) to those who like to elude camera as much as possible (Josh). We even have Chris Pontius and Loomis Fall stop by for their first mailbag appearance ever! (more…)
Following in the footsteps of our master wordsmith, Sean Cliver, I decided to use the 13th installment of the mail to not directly talk about the mail at all, but instead to plug a great, somewhat forgotten record from 1995 by my friend Loomis’s old band, Wax. The Thirteen Unlucky Numbers album is currently out of print, but you can score used copies for a very affordable price and it is well worth it. Oh, and while you are at it, you might as well check out Loomis’s newer solo efforts, available directly from him (should you catch him walking the streets of Hollywood) or on iTunes. Just remember to please not touch him. Loomis is generally not a big fan of human contact. (more…)
Hey everyone! Presented above for your viewing pleasure, please find the newest installment of the jackassworld viewer mail. For this round, we had quite a bit of stuff to open that had been amassing as far back as Christmas, so rather than dilly-dally, we got straight to the task at hand and started digging in. Sadly, that means that this installment is absent of any fun “mail tips” this time, as well as a bit scant on celebrity appearances. Regardless, we did get a lot of awesome stuff, and that should make up the difference. (more…)
Hello everybody! I would first like to take the opportunity to thank everyone this past year that has sent our little organization some love in the mail. Our mail deliveries have completely run the gamut and have included everything from original paintings and drawings to puppets, gadgets, T-shirts, kind letters, nice cards, profane (but well-meaning) notes, letters, Beelie-Bops, stuffed animals, postcards, kidnapped dogs, male thongs, bears in cans, and even baked goods. It might not always come across as well as it should because some of us are not used to receiving gifts from people we have never met, but I guarantee you that we absolutely enjoy every piece of mail that graces our post box. In other words, when one is really masterful at dick and fart jokes, the social skills usually suffer. (more…)
