Earworm: “Child of the Rain” by The Omen (prod. by JDiablo)

I’m sorry, for all you people that love our blog and especially look forward to my posts, even moreso, my Earworms. (Although The Big Cheese’s posts are fun to check out, so yes, check those out.)

Today’s Earworm is a little gem that I found on the ever-so-dreaded Tumblr. Tumblr is a very dark place. I hate it so, but I love using it for cool pictures and fun posts. Anyway.

The song is called Child of the Rain. It’s an underground rap track.

Like I always say, guys. My music library expands constantly. Every single day my tastes change.

The beat is nice and smooth, the lyrics are very fluid. It’s on repeat right now.

Go on. Have a listen. (CAUTION. EXPLICIT LYRICS. Also, in no way do The Big Cheese and I promote the lifestyle that may or may not be represented in the song. Enjoy life cautiously.)

Chocolate Covered Onion

This is out there, and yes, the thought of onions and chocolate is not quite appealing, my buddy and I had to try this. It was very dissapointing. The chocolate crumbled off when you took a bite, and the skin was still on. I think if they used smaller onions where you can just pop it in your mouth whole would’ve worked better.

This shot was also included in Womensday.com’s online article about wierd chocolate covered foods. I think if it had bacon, it would be better.
Best way I can describe this is, if you bit an onion, and took a bite out of a Hershey chocolate bar.

This is also one of my most viewed shots on Flickr, and it’s gotten a lot ‘ew’ comments when I show them the photo.

Earworm: Die Young – Ke$ha

It’s been a while since I posted an earworm, and I don’t know why, to break my earworm hiatus, I pick Ke$ha.  I guess it’s just been stuck in my head for a while for unknown reasons.  I’m not a big fan of hers, but it seems like I like her songs enough to actually listen to them.  It’s a nice mainstream beat, so…..

Grand Theft Auto V – Trailer 2

Seeing this new trailer makes me want this game badly!  I never got around to playing GTA 4 as much as I wanted to.  At the time, I was going through some personal problems, and even now, I can’t seem to pick it up and play it again.  I played the PS2 variants, and played them thoroughly, and in the process, had a good time in doing so.  Seeing GTA 5 and the way it looks graphically, and thinking back to when I first played GTA back in the 90’s show’s you how much the industry has jumped leaps and bounds in the last decade and a half.

This is a Rockstar game, and they rarely make duds, (in fact, I can’t think of a game that they made that totally sucked ass) and I can already foresee this game being totally awesome.

The Sess resurfaces!

Former G4TV personality, and editor in chief of games content, Adam Sessler has joined Revision3.  It’s nice to see him back in action, and frankly, since his sudden departure on X-Play, I stopped watching it pretty much. I guess the timing was right for him since now, X-Play is gonna be cancelled at the end of the year, and G4TV is switching gears.

To be honest, it’s been just 2 original shows, and a lot of re-runs of Cops.  Anyway, here’s the Adam’s announcement below.

Good to see you back Adam!

Random photo of the day – November 12, 2012 Instagram Edition

Sunset over the lake.

I have a love hate relationship with Instagram. I love it for it’s quick and easy edits on photos, which makes ho-hum cell phone shots into pieces of art, and I hate it cause it’s a quick and easy way to edit photos, and makes us photographers that put hours in the digital dark room processing/editing shots look bad.

In any case, it does show off the one thing a photographer has that cannot be replaced by apps, and what not..and it’s his vision.

I hope you enjoy this quick shot I took over the weekend whilst enjoying a 6 mile walk.
