Blogrolling with Mickey Rourke and the Blue God of Death

Wondering why the Academy didn't give Mickey Rourke the Oscar for "The Wrestler"? Probably because they were rightly terrified of what he'd do with an open mic. This one's special.



Tito Santana, still wrestling, still better than that punk Mickey Rourke. Mildly encouraging, in that he doesn't sound like he's going to die. It also amuses me beyond words that the heel is a computer tech named Tom.



Fairly neat little song (it's been on commercials, aka the new top 40 radio), from the second pop band I've ever seen in my life that has a harp on stage. Since my band was the first, it gets a play here. Their lead singer, of course, is more commercially successful...

Buy Michael Jackson's stuff! There's at least 50 really regrettable and legally actionable jokes to be made here, but I'm not going there. After all, the man was on "The Simpsons," you get to rock out his tunes on "Guitar Hero," and just recently, he was trying to make a 50 foot tall robot of himself. That's not the kind of person you want to annoy, really. (And yes, this whole thing really was just an excuse to post a spliced Project A-Ko clip, 45 seconds that make me love life. just because B-Ko at her most obsessed is a wondrous thing. Who wouldn't be down with a violent workaholic exhibitionist who can make Blue Gods of Death?)
