Star Trek or Star Wars? Which one is better? Unless you're a die hard fan, you could probably care less. Me personally, I've never gotten into Star Trek, but I hear good things. Watch as these guys give their take on the age old uber nerd argument.
Never knew those scrolling letters were so dangerous. Always wondered where they went though.

He's Running Over People!!!
To quote one of my favorite football blogs, "Herschel Walker is the Alpha Human." I couldn't have said it better myself. Last Saturday, just weeks shy of turning 48 years old, Herschel undertook a challenge that came under both fire and praise from critics and fans everywhere. Herschel stepped in the ring as an MMA fighter on a major promotion. Some said that he had no business in the ring. Many were upset to see an amateur on Strikeforce, the closest competitor to the UFC. Most were just curious to see if he had it in him. Herschel just wanted to compete in the sport he loves. And he did just that...
While it wasn't the most exciting fight, Herschel dominated his opponent. Critics say he fought a weak opponent. Well no shit Sherlock. This was his first fight. Meanwhile, his opponent had 2 pro fights under his belt. Walker just didn't want this fight to be a circus act like Jose Canseco's was.
Overall, Herschel proved he could compete, even at 47. He brought eyes to a sport that wouldn't normally have watched. He trained like a mad man at one of the top gyms around. He took the fight seriously and dominated his opponent, just like his glory days on the gridiron.
Herschel's trainer, Javier Mendez, said that if Walker started in the sport at 23, he would have become the single greatest mixed martial arts fighter of all-time. He called Walker the second best conditioned trainee ever, next to Cain Velasquez. Cain is considered by many the best conditioned heavyweight in the sport. Walker owned the football field in his day and I for one am happy to see him taking a stab at another sport I love. Will he ever hold a championship? No. But he will win his fights, and he will do everything in his power to prove he's not to be taken lightly. Just ask Bill Bates or Greg Nagy, who our both now "that other guy" in a Herschel highlight film!

A Lasting Impression
I love a good impression. I love Christopher Walken. I love the song Like A Rolling Stone. Watch and enjoy as a friend of mine, Luke Johnson, brings all 3 into harmony.
One day Luke will have his 15 minutes of fame and hopefully much more. I'll be proud to say I know him and brag how he would entertain me and my friends while we played cards. You can say how you saw him here and enjoyed a good laugh. For a more serious side of his music and to truly appreciate and support him, visit his Myspace account here. Catch you on the B side Luke.
UPDATE: Just a small taste of his phenomenal talent:

Friday Night Jam
It's fourth of July weekend and so Friday night jam is getting it's patrotic on. Here's two great songs to put the proud American in back into you. Enjoy your fireworks and hotdogs.
I know alot of people think Toby Keith used the whole patriotic thing to make money and revive his career. Ya'll can kiss my Marine ass. Like him or not, his music puts chill bumps on the bodies of troops everytime it's played. He makes them feel appreciated during a time when too many Americans don't seem thankful at all.
