For the Love of Cereal: Toucan Sam Gets Inked… 2

Posted on July 24, 2009 by DJC

Tattoos are everywhere. Everyone from the checkout girl at Trader Joe’s to your straight-laced sister who got her first tattoo (a standard girlie butterfly) when she turned 40. There are blogs dedicated to the high art of inking your skin and the sad world of bad tattoos. If you read this blog, you know I am a fan of tattoo culture and it’s extroverted artistry. For more on that, you can dig through the Cherrybombed archives using the Tattoo You link. But I digress away from the point of this post. The inky-ode to breakfast cereal.

ToucanSamTattoo
Toucan Sam tattoo by Nate Hough of Maine. And don’t be a douchebag and steal Nate’s image to use in your own shop.

This Toucan Sam tattoo by Nate Hough is one of those tattoo’s that falls into the “I’ve never seen anything like that” category. And that is no easy feat given the fact that we’re talking about my eyes here.

CaptainCrunchTattoo
Ahoy there Cap’n inky!

I was really hoping to find Cap’n Crunch’s pirate nemesis, Jean LaFoote for this entry but, no dice. At least LaFoote didn’t go home empty-handed after all those years of trying to hijack the good ship Guppy. LaFoote eventually got his own cereal the short lived Cinnamon Crunch, somewhere around 1992.

DigEmTattoo
Lip smacking good ink.

Dig ‘Em was the amphibious mascot for Honey Smacks. Honey Smacks was like the Jolt Cola of breakfast cereal. Last year, Consumer Reports slammed Dig ‘Em and his Honey Smacks after researching showed that the lip-smacking, honey flavored puffs were comprised of more than 50% sugar.

RiceCrispiesTattoo
Snap, Crackle, POP get inky…

I’m actually not surprised to have found a Rice Krispies tattoo. Snap, Crackle and Pop were advertising gold and even recorded their own 7″ (you can find they on eBay occasionally for $5 – $12 bucks). The elfin trio also stared in their own cartoon short in 1939 called Breakfast Pals. To say nothing of delicious phenomenon that is the Rice Krispies Treat. Which, just like everything else these days, now has a bacon variation.

boo-tattoo1s
Boo Berry stoner ink.

Blueberry flavored corn cereal with marshmallows? Now that is some stoner concoction. The voice Boo Berry was inspired by the actor Peter Lorre, who despite the Internet rumors, did not lend his voice talent to the series of Boo Berry/Count Chocula/Franken Berry commercials during the 80’s. Mostly because Lorre died in 1964. If Lorre had been alive, I’m sure he would have been game to voice the little blue ghost after doing movies like Casablanca and The Maltese Falcon. Then again, Lorre was also appeared in Muscle Beach Party so I could be wrong…

CountChoculaTattoo
Count Chocula tattoo reworked…

Here we have a forever homage to the Blackula of breakfast cereal, Count Chocula.

TonytheTigerTattoo
Tattoos are Grrreat!

Of course I dug up a tattoo of Tony the Tiger! And yeah, it really does bring out the tiger in me. Grrrrr…

Welcome to the World of Zardoz…! 0

Posted on July 24, 2009 by DJC


Trailer for the 1974 movie, Zardoz staring Sean Connery. How Connery came back from this flick to play Bond again in 1983’s Never Say Never Again, is beyond me.

Welcome to the very sexy, shirtless, NRA loving future world of Zardoz. A world where guns outnumber shirts (and proper pants for that matter) by at least 50 to 1. And, because I know it crossed your mind already, Charlton Heston was busy trying to convince a post-apocalyptic world that Soylent Green is PEOPLE!, so Zardoz director John Boorman (Deliverance) naturally went with Connery. That’s my theory anyway, and I’m sticking to it.

What The F*@$ is Paula Abdul Talking About…? 0

What the F*** is Paula Abdul Talking About? From Jimmy Kimmel Live.

As a general rule, you will never see the words “Paula Abdul” on this blog. However, this Abdul parody from the Jimmy Kimmel Live show this week is hilarious. And while I don’t want a sip of whatever crazy juice Abdul is sucking out of her ever present Coke cup, I’d love to know what it is, just so I can avoid it.
