Change.

The name has changed again. Due to my total lack of interest in the American music scene past 1993, It totally eluded me that there is ALREADY a "Revolver" publication.

Thankfully, there are hundreds of different weapons out there I can rename to until I find one that some drone isn't using as a shrine to 3-Chord shoe gazer bands (such as Revolver Magazine, the tools). Don't worry, the name is the only thing changing.

Peace On Earth And Good Will Towards Whoever.

Since it's Christmas eve and I don't want to spoil the holiday by whining about how bad people act the day before Christmas, I think I'll render something more positive.

It's Christmas. Whether you're Christian like myself and look towards the sky at Christmas time or you just get into the holiday, one thing is for certain: People (for the most part) change on Christmas. Now obviously the minute they get behind a wheel it's Christmas with the devil, but there's a positive side.

For one, Charities experience a spike in donations. Oh, don't give me the excuse "Well of couse they do. There's a friggin' Salvation Army Santa on every damn corner!" It's all charities. People get this light from their head to the world and feel more positive. Yes, even the Scrooges who curse the holiday because they've over burdened themselves with gift giving via a list of 75 people they know. If they didn't want to see the smiling faces of their friends on Christmas, they would toss the list to the wayside.

Some people will say it's the position of the stars in the sky, the moon, the gravitation and other celestial factors. Still others will site obligation and guilt as why people give more at Christmas. I prefer this explanation from "The Christmas Attic" by Trans-Siberian Orchestra:

"There is something about this night,
That the Lord has arranged,
That reaches deep into our souls,
And causes us to want to change."

Merry Christmas.

PETA Pissing Me Off...

Read Full Story Here.

PETA needs a clue. I mean one that comes in the form of a 50 pound sledge-hammer. Not only are they telling little children that "Mommy Slaughtered A Kitten" but they were also on the radio recently saying that "...milking cows is cruel and un-usual to the animal." Are you f'ing serious?!?!

I suppose they're right. We should probably just let the cows DIE instead of being milked.

If you're going to have an organization that protests something as controversial as leather wearing, meat eating and other things that require a dead animal to accomplish, you should at least find representatives who don't have demonstrations using "...Vandalism, destruction of public and private property that often lead to arrests."

Its the same thing as the anti-war people. They have a point to make about peace, and so, they set fire to buildings, throw rocks at police, and cause general mayhem. Ok, um, where was the peace message exactly?!

PETA is lead by a bunch of out-of-touch, rag-tag, java sipping hemp bag toting lunatics - wait those are the same ones who protest war, hmm - who don't understand an organized presentation. They would rather try to assault people's senses with graphic pictures and fire. By the way, if a Pro Life advocate can't get results with a picture of a mangled fetus, it's sure as hell not going to work with an animal.

Get a clue, stop losing your audience by launching tac missiles at them.
