Here it is, the final installment of my Halloween mix: A Spooky, Rockin’, Surfin’, Halloween Extravaganza Volume 3! I hope everyone’s October is going well, and hopefully you had the opportunity to check out any of these mixes. In my opinion this one is the best out of the three as the editing is cleaner, the songs are more focused, and it once again brings those ghoulish punk, surf, and rock tunes. This continues the trend of ending the album with a Type O Negative song, and you’ll also see some familiar names returning as well.
Up next is the second set of ghoulish songs for you to play during Halloween! This mix was made last year, and its title is A Spooky, Rockin’, Surfin’ Halloween Extravaganza Volume 2. It’s kinda like a bad sequel to an already awful B-movie. You know it’s going to be a train wreck, but you have to experience it anyway! In all actuality however, this mix is edited much better than the first. The skits in between each track reflect the upcoming track far better in my opinion. This mix also ends with a Type O Negative track, which has become a bit of a tradition in making these mixes. I hope you enjoy this one, as very few people have heard it aside from myself!

It’s officially Fall. The leaves are turning, the air is getting cold, and your probably breaking out your hoodie while waving goodbye to your biking shorts till next year (you homo). Even if the good times of summer have drawn to a close, there’s always one thing to look forward to in the Fall days: Halloween! It’s my favorite holiday by far, and what better way to celebrate it than to watch some good old horror flicks and listen to some spooky music. For the past three years, I’ve been making Halloween CD’s that help me get into the spirit and this year is no different. So to celebrate this October, Miscellaneous Garbage brings to you Volume 1 of 3 horrifyingly rocking mixes to get your spooky groove on! Read on for more information:
A few days ago I started playing the new TNA iMPACT! game for the PS3. While the game isn’t that good, it has a great roster of wrestlers. One of the wrestlers that stands out is the legendary Sting who was one of my favorite wrestlers when I was a kid. Anyway, this prompted me to do a Youtube search for Sting highlight videos. After searching and finding alot of videos about that Yoga-loving fella from the Police, I stumbled onto the following video about the wrestler. Apparently this was a an old Sprite commercial when WCW (the promotion Sting had wrestled for at the time) was at it’s peak in the late 90’s. To my amusement, Sting kicks the shit out of a little kid in this commercial:
As you can see to the right, I added a links page for the sites that were in my blogroll. I’ve included a brief description of each site as well. Additionally, I cut out the Project Wonderful ads on the sidebar as they were becoming an eyesore. Hopefully that will keep things looking a bit cleaner on here!
Okay, this PC isn’t exactly "new" per se, because I built it a few months ago. However, I wanted to make a post to show you folks what I’m running. Read on to check out the specs of my new PC:
Phew, it’s been a good while since I’ve updated my old blog. Between moving on from my last job, having spotty internet access, and being generally sick of looking at a computer screen, I haven’t blogged in awhile. None the less, I’m back with a new beer review, and today it’s Kerberos Tripel from Flying Dog Brewery. So enough with the chit chat, and let’s get into the beer review!
For this post, I’m going to take a break from my oddball antics and bring to your attention a cause that I think is important. I’ve always loved animals, and I’m particularly fond of bulldogs. There’s just a certain kindness that comes from those monsters that you can’t get from any other dog. That’s why I think you should support HeavenSent Bulldog Rescue. HeavenSent is a non-profit organization based in New Jersey and Pennsylvania that prides itself on rescuing bulldogs. They function primarily on donations and they need your help to rescue dogs in need. So if you can, send a donation to these folks and show your love for animals!
Also, keep a look out sometime this week for another beer review. The good folks at Flying Dog Brewery sent me a few samples that I’m dying to try.
I received an e-mail earlier today from Dark Sky Films, saying that the original Faces of Death will be released on both Blu-Ray and DVD in a 30th Anniversary package! For those of you that aren’t familiar with Faces of Death, the film contains both real and fake footage of people biting the dust in various graphic ways. The movie was graphic enough to have it banned in 40 countries (according to legend anyway). While this film isn’t my cup of tea, I have to give Dark Sky a lot of credit for having the balls to release this on Blu-Ray! Read on for official press release:
After a shitty week or so (seems like I have a lot of those doesn’t it?), I decided that I really needed a good beer. Thankfully, luck was on my side as a brand new six pack shop opened up very close to my house. Being the complete beer dork that I am, I was obligated to pick up a six pack of some random beer and see if I could find any "gems". Sometimes picking out random beers is a crap shoot, as you have no idea if you’re going to find a quality product. I chose to pick out three beers from micro breweries here in the United States, and three imports. Today I’ll be trying out one of those imports entitled Staropramen Lager. This will be my first time tasting this beer, so hopefully this will be a discovery of a "gem" and not a turd.
