Holy Fuckballs Don't Ever Try This
I've always been a fan of brave people, but these guys go right up to that brave/crazy line. You may think they've crossed it all the way to the crazy side, or you may think they are right on that line, depending on your taste for adventure. Personally, I think that these well meaning people have crossed that line just over to the crazy side.
I can understand having passion for your profession, but I'd be damned if I understand why anyone would take this sort of risk. I mean the images are amazing, I can only imagine how it must feel like to swim with them, to just freely stalk the oceans with them. This sort of thing takes incredible mastery of your craft. You not only have to be an expert diver, but an expert cameraman, and have a very deep understanding of great white sharks, and balls the size of the fucking earth.
Holy shit! I mean look at that video, not only are they swimming around sharks with no cage around them, they don't even have diving equipment on. That's right, Fred Buyle and William Winram are doing this thing on deep breaths of air. Turns out that this is a 'thing' that incredibly balsy people do for kicks. Its called "Freediving", and there is reasoning to their madness. Well, at least some reasoning. Without the diving equipment they don't have those attention attracting bubble that form above them. A good question that many of you are asking yourselves is 'What happens if the sharks get curious anyway and want to come by to see what the fuck is up with this 'monkey' in the water?' As it turns out the answer is, 'the divers grow bigger balls!!!':
"When we dive with them we adopt a proactive behavior, which means we don't act as prey, and if a shark comes too close we stand our ground and even move towards them," Buyle said. "By doing that, there is mutual respect relationship between the divers and the sharks."
That's an approach I use in the 'hood'. I'd shit my pants if an actual shark 'rolled up on me.' But kudos to these people who are clearly braver than I am in this aspect. Click this Grind TV blog to get a better understanding of what these guys are doing.
Governor Gone Wild
Haley Barbour was a very highly regarded governor of Mississippi. As we all know, governors are able to give out pardons to current convicts that basically lets them out of jail and forgives their crimes. Well, this guy took that right pretty damn far. As his term was finishing up he released over 200 people, and over 20 of them are murderers.
I have no idea what is going on in Mississippi, but that is just insane. The pardoning process itself should be controversial. One man being able to just wave his magic wand and have any person released at his will is a little scary. However, I'm sort of glad this happened as hopefully people will begin to take a closer look at this 'right' not only in Mississippi but all over the nation as well.
I can almost understand some people convicted of fraud or whatever, being let go because they donated money to your cause at a certain point, or you owe someone a political favor. I can even understand letting go of the football player's brother. I absolutely feel that it is wrong, but at least there is a line of reasoning there. I mean, it is irresponsible and corrupt, but I can see where a person may be persuaded to let them go, but to let killers loose because they worked in your mansion, is just too fucking crazy for me.
A gentleman known as Mugen said it best, "That is fucking crazy. All the governor's people that may have ended up in jail can now get out, but my cousin Pookie who was caught selling weed ain't getting no fucking pardon. Just because he won't go into the Mayor's mansion and be his slave doesn't mean he doesn't deserve to be pardoned. He ain't dangerous, his worse trait is that he gets the munchies too goddamn much, and that fat fuck Mayor is letting convicted killers out. Fuck him and everyone he looks like."
Trailer Park
Wrath of the Titans - This is the sequel to Clash of the Titans that starred Sam Worthington (Avatar, Terminator Salvation). Clash of the Titans was just 'OK' as an overall movie. As an action movie, it kicked quite a bit of ass. This sequel at least seems to kick the first one's ass in terms of action. I mean, look at the rock guys that literally come crashing in to battle, or that 'two torsos for a pair of legs'-guy. This looks like a bad ass movie. I hope that the story is better than the first one, but the at least in this trailer looks pretty kick-ass.
Prometheus - Ridley Scott (Alien) goes back to the genre that helped make him legendary. This movie was originally going to be a prequel to the Ridley Scott classic, "Alien". But as it turns out, even though it will have similar stripes, it is its own different animal.
