Kudos to Gerber Legendary Blades

2.21.2007

Malach tells it like it is.
Malach loves his multi-tools, and has owned a few over the years. He especially loves his Gerber Multi-tools and have owned a number of them. Malach recieved this one from his mother-in-law a few X-Mases ago. Easily the best, and most expensive I have ever owned. Over the past year, it started to fall apart, eventually, the welding came apart at the plier end. I went to Gerber's website sending their support an email about the problem. They responded that same day, telling me to return it and they would see what they could do. I did, and about a week later they sent me a brand new one, and little note apologizing for the defect.

I love companies like this, and I love their products even more now. Kudos, Gerber. Too bad they don't make a Kukris . . I would be so bad ass with one of those.

Plugs.
Strip 502 of 8 1/2 by Eleven is now up. I also got Lucas all worried, my tooncast shows up #2 on google for an "8 1/2 by Eleven" search just under his site, gonna try to take over the top spot!

Also, Ben Byrd's fiction archive was updated. He has a interesting little spoof interview, Anderson Cooper interviewing Satan. It is called, appropriately Interview. Very funny.

Also, I am negotiating with yet another author to publish his work here (doing better than my lazy ass webcomic contributers), it is all worked, it is just working on the details. Perhaps something tomorrow.

A little more about yesterdays (and todays song).
Someone at work was dissappointed that I did not talk more about Rubber Soul, the Album Michelle is off of. I promised them I would tonight as they wanted to hear my opinions on it. Rubber Soul is arguably the best Beatles album, again arguably. Rubber Soul marks a departure from the bubble gum mop top, to a more artistic, ecletic, and amazing musically vision that really defined rock and roll. Rubber Soul, followed by Revolver, followed by Sgt. Pepper . . I don't know is any other band can lay claim to the kinds of music released in a three year period like the Beatles did. Of those three albums, two always appear in top 10 best album of all time list, sometimes all three. Rubber Soul also directly influenced Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys, another frighteningly amazing album, easily Brian Wilson's best stuff. Wilson is quoted as say after hearing Rubber Soul, he went right out and made Pet Sounds.

My favorite of that bunch is actually Revolver, and "the White Album" is my favorite Beatles album. Perhaps it is worth a tangent to explore the Beatles music? Many of you youg fans are only familar with their hits. I can play you some stuff that you would swear would blow your mind.

Ok, so maybe Malach is obsessed.
I actually watched some of this today, is it getting rather OJ -esque. This is gonna be fun . . . all this with Phil Spector trial coming up too . . .

Was my wife there?
Some one find out where my wife was when this happened! Also my site has been getting hit for the phrase Naked Kate . . . hehe it makes her uncomfortable. SHH don't tell here about the secret archive!

And of course, gotta get the daily Britney.
So she left rehab again, next move? Either death, Playboy, or another 55 hour marriage.

The Mood of Red Sox Nation.
Hey, IT'S JUST MANNY BEING MANNY! Won't shock me if next week, Manny shows up with Britney Spears on his arm.

Only in Rhode Island.
Yeah RI has a bunch of silly laws, so this comes as no surprise. Some other nutty stuff?
1. There is no helmet law, except for motocycle passengers, drivers do not have to wear one
2. It is perfectly legal to own fireworks, but illegal to transport them by including by foot.
3. Every dog track in the state (there are three of them) has floors and floors of slot machines, and gaming, but the do not allow a full fledged Casinos.

Biggest little state in the Union!

This is interesing.
So Tom Brady impregnation and subsequent break up with Bridgette Monyahan is national news, but Bill Belichick's 20 year extra marital affair is barely a blip on the radar.

Malach's Quote of the Day
It is what it is - Bill Belichick

I am Malach and no wonder I am getting listed as "gossip/celebrity blogs".
