nitro circus – behind the scenes with the globe of death
Against his better wishes, Dave Carnie left the cozy confines of his office in December to attend the Nitro Circus shoot involving the “Globe of Death,” a spherical steel cheese grater that is typically used for carnival-like motorcycle performances. Early on in the day, Monte Perlin, the stunt rider who was kind enough to share his big ball with the Nitro crew, treated us all to a display of how one person could stand in the center of the sphere while he ripped high-speed circles around them. Right away, Rick Kosick decided that before the day was up he was going to get Carnie inside that ball. (more…)

a top 10 video countdown to new year’s eve
Unfortunately, due to family obligations of a more responsible nature, I will not be burning down my inner house tonight in celebration of the coming new year, but I am guessing most everyone else out there in the world will be partying like it’s 1999. Only it’s not. Remember all that “Y2K” hullabaloo? What a hoot that was. An anti-climactic hoot, yes, but I can still only imagine what a rockin’ time it was for movie scripts, computer sales, and members of the Montana Militia. But don’t worry. Doomsday will be back in style come 2011 and it will surely be the apocalyptic party theme du jour as the Mayan calendar closes up shop on humanity. In the meantime, we’ve got three long years of laughs ahead of us, so live it the fuck up! Accordingly, here’s a playlist consisting of some of our favorite wasted occasions throughout the years (or at least the ones caught on film). And, should old acquaintances* be forgotten once again, let’s just chalk it up to the janitorial effects of alcohol—out with the old brain cells and in with the new. Happy New Year, everybody!

I think the kid needed to cuss more and maybe slam the sandwich into his mom’s face, but otherwise, well played, well played indeed

No, don’t just buy a cake and a tube of icing and do it yourself. No, make a big stink about it and cause a hassle. You’re making a point. You need to let the people know.

This one actually made the rounds just before Thanksgiving, so I apologize if this would have appealed to your Thanksgiving Day menu.
