Cherrybomb’s rescue cats Iggy and Woody (brothers), age 2.
My very rocking, animal loving BFF, Surly, reminded me today that during the month of December the Seattle Humane Society will be offering free cat adoptions and Kitten adoption fees are reduced to just $50. I don’t know about you but, after seeing photos of Mickey Rourke buying a dog for his girlfriend from a pet store earlier today, I needed some positive spin.
Mickey Rourke and his 24 year old niece girlfriend buying a puppy at a Manhattan pet store yesterday. For Rusty and LP.
Now before you get all mushy looking at this photo of this nice old man buying a puppy for his niece, save it. Someone needs to get Ingrid E. Newkirk of PETA some Valium and a Snuggie because this is a photo of animal rights activist and puppy mill hater Mickey Rourkebuying a puppy for his 24 year old Russian girlfriend at a Manhattan pet story yesterday. Sacrilege! Man, I know pussy will make you do all kinds of crazy things but, buying a puppy from a pet store after having a long history of canine advocacy is just too fucked up for words. Earlier this year,after posing for a PETA ad that encouraged dog owners to fix their pets, Rourke went out on his porch and shook his fist at people that purchase animals from pet stores:
I think if the public is more aware of fixing their animals, of not going to the puppy store – which I have been guilty of – they wouldn’t be putting so many dogs to death each week.
Although it pains me to type theses words, the power of “this is total bullshit!” compels me…
One of my favorite punky trio’s, The Electric Kisses will open this super-sonic Sunday show at The Funhouse tonight. The Kisses will be giving a bunch of their new material a spin before making way for the crunchy goodness of TheColoffs. Matt Mayhem headlines this garage-y gig, bringing his one man band, Apple Jacks and hot dogs all the way from Idaho. Did I mention the cover is only $5? Don’t miss it…
Metal icon Ronnie James Dio has been diagnosed with the early stages of stomach cancer. Less than two weeks ago, Dio cancelled the European leg of the Heaven and Hell Tour and was admitted to a hospital for an undisclosed illness. Dio’s wife Wendy said that the 67 year old vocalist’s medical treatment will start immediately at the Mayo Clinic. Another source close to Dio, That Metal Show host Eddie Trunk, said that following his recent diagnosis, Dio confessed to him on the phone that his days of having “a few drinks” are most likely “behind him”.
Here’s wishing The Rainbow in the Dark(not to be confused with “The Motherfucking Rainbow”, Steven Tyler),Ronnie James Dio a speedy metal recovery.
Dave drinks 100 shots of beer in 100 minutes. Clearly, Dave knows how to party…
In this video, a guy named Dave attempts to drink 100 shots of beer in 100 minutes. At shot #65(around 2:47 in), Dave barfs. Then following shot #66, (approximately 10 seconds later), he barfs again. At shot #85Dave does an impression of Grand Master Flash. At shot #95 (which, unknown to Dave, was actually #102) he mumbles that he “has to work tomorrow”. Ultimately, Dave ends up drinking 107 shots of beer in 100 minutes. Like I said, Dave knows how to party.
Here’s a hint. If you’re doing something illegal, it is definitely not a fucking Kodak moment.
Eight students from the University of Wisconsin were ticketed following a sting conducted by the La Crosse Police Department using Facebook. The La Crosse PD used a phony profile, complete with a photo of an attractive college age girl, in order to gain access to the students FB profiles. The police were then able to ticket and fine eight students $227 (!) for underage drinking, based on photographs they found in the students Facebook photo albums.
During a reading for his new book, Under the Dome, Stephen King revealed that he is working on a sequel to his 1977 novel, The Shining.
Doctor Sleep, the working title for the frightening follow-up, fast-forwards 40 years and catches up with Danny“Redrum”Torrance. Danny is the son of the original books main character (played by Jack Nicholson in the movie version The Shining) frustrated author, insomniac and ax-wielding maniac, Jack Torrance.
The Mother Fuckin’ Rainbow is ready for tomorrow, are you?

I know I’m at least a day behind on this one but, I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one running behind at the moment. Anyway, this is some pretty happy shit.
Thanks to Stacey for the link (that she sent yesterday).

Despite claims made by Steven“The Motherfucking Rainbow”Tyler during a Joe Perry Project show in New York, Joe Perry said last night at the AMA’s that he is moving forward with plans to keep Aerosmith going. With or without Steven Tyler. Yawn, I mean, said The Perry:
The band’s going to be working with or without Tyler. I’m working on it right now.
Mind you, this is coming from Perry as he walked the red carpet last night at the American Music Awardslooking like this. Perry’s latest comments follow statements of concern for Tyler’s current state of sobriety made by Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer last week.
Despite his past struggles with substances, after looking at these photos of Tyler at a Parkinson’s Disease Benefit this past weekend in New York, I’m not quite ready to stage an intervention for The Motherfucking Rainbow. Yet, anyway. I would however like to stage an intervention for Joe Perry’s mouth. His lips have been on a bullshit bender since August.
