Antelope Horns In The City

antelope horn

Yesterday while walking on 1st. and Linden st. in Downtown Long Beach a guy was standing on the corner playing an Antelope horn. He was just standing there looking at the sky and blowing it. He looked like he was trying to summons the gods to change the weather or maybe he was calling for help to his animal friends. Either way he was not playing anything in tune nor did it resemble anything close to music.

I bet this guy thinks he is really good but has no idea what he really sounds like kinda like how people are surprised when they hear their voice on an answer machine. I then turned to my friend Chris and said, I bet this guy shows up on one of thoughts shows showcasing his talent in-front of David Hasslehoff.

Either way it was the most random thing I have seen in Downtown L.B.

We are in our last few hours of freedom while driving in Los Angeles. Starting tomorrow if you don’t have your “hands free” device while driving and on the phone L.A.P.D. will give you a ticket.

I’m still using my ear piece that came with my iPhone, so I’m covered… but the rest of you had 22 months to prepare! I did go to the apple store and pick up a bluetooth ear piece for my wife… they only had one left in stock!

Don’t be the first one to get caught with out one!

Biri Biri Kaze Hiki Wanko aka Shocking Sick Puppy!

Bandsai subsidiary Mega House has announced the August arrival of ‘Biri Biri Kaze Hiki Wanko’ which roughly translates too ‘Shocking Sick Puppy!’ This could easily be the greatest game ever created!

The Toy puppy, who has caught a cold, drools a concoction of slime and plastic germs. Players must extract these germs using the tweezers without letting the metal part touch the slime, an act which produces a buzzing shock. The player who collects the most germs wins. Play continues by loading the mess into a compartment in the dog’s head. This is like Operation but grosser and oh so so so much better.

I collect weird games and I think this one will beat out my current fave Gooey Louie where you have to pick boogers from Louie’s nose without making his brains pop. I need this ‘Sick Dog With Rabies’ game. I need it bad. I will have this ‘Kujo: The Game’ in my possession come August time!
