Mel Gibson is more Insane than JMC!
Ok, I’ve just GOT to replace that old blog on my site. July’s almost over already. Enjoying your summer? Did you feel all patriotic grilling hot dogs and playing with explosives over the holiday? USA! USA! Hey, why is it that people don’t let the law keep them from enjoying lighting fireworks, but they still consider themselves law-bidding citizens? They’ll say “Because it’s the law” to defend the position of other laws instead of thinking about their practicalities, but all bets are off when it comes to celebrating our independence. How many people even know what we’re independent from?
How do you feel about 20 states considering an additional “soda tax” to boost the economy? Kansas said they’d expect a 10 cent tax on 12 oz. soda to bring in
90 million dollars in the first year! You get the idea...soda is a luxury, like cigarettes...both are garbage for the body, so they think you’ll pay more for the privilege of polluting your body. Will you?
We talked about Proposition 19- California’s attempt to control and tax cannabis-on RVD RADIO last week. This may have been the most informative episode we’ve had yet, so I recommend giving the archive a listen if you get the chance. Thanks to Steve Bloom from
http://www.celebstoner.com/ for his help. The big vote to decide whether to regulate and tax cannabis or continue to waste money funding a failed plan is at the end of the year. C’mon! They arrest so many people for pot that they don’t have room to keep Lindsey Lohan in Jail! Don’t you want Lindsey to stay in Jail more than 14 days? Pot is still so dirty to talk about that advertisers are afraid to appear on my site. We advocates have a tough fight ahead of us, but logic is on our side. Actually, a recent poll sponsored by CBS shows regulating marijuana favored by 50-40%. You can see this and get more information at
http://taxcannabis2010.org/ Also, a great book to read on the subject of societal effects of pot vs alcohol, is “Marijuana is Safer so Why are we Driving People to Drink?” by Paul Armentano. Find it. “Drinking beer is American tradition” isn’t reasonable logic, it’s good ol’ boy rules, and it’s retarded.
Justin McCully and I were treated to a personally instructed YRG workout with Diamond Dallas Page. DDP’s Yoga for Real Guys has been his life passion for years and it’s hard to imagine anyone not gaining from the experience. Great stuff. We’ll be showing this on RVD TV soon. Follow Justin on Twitter at
http://twitter.com/The_Real_Nsane1 RVD TV will soon have it’s 100th episode. This ends one era and starts a new one. I have many episodes in the can so as soon as our webmaster gets on the same page as us, we’ll probably start seeing new episodes more frequently.
I still get asked when RVD TV DVD Vol 2 will come out, so let me explain with elaboration. Big Vision-being the only game in town-ripped me off by selling these DVD’s to stores, and then claiming they didn’t get paid. It’s the same situation they do with the Hardy Boys DVD, except they gave them a little something up front. Even though I knew about the Hardy’s deal and BVE couldn’t give any references, I made the choice to play ball with them. They even told me that their biggest selling wrestling DVD-Hardcore Homecoming, I believe it’s called- made tons of money but they also added that the promoter would “lie” and tell me that BVE didn’t give them much. Hmmm. Suspicious. What’s really shady, is that they pitch you on their “direct-to-consumers” market, which totally knocks out the middle man and pays you... a whopping 9 bucks per DVD! Or-as it turns out- 0 dollars per DVD! With no middle man! Big Vision straight to the purchaser! Sent after receiving payment! Zero dollars to RVD! That sounds fair, right? Sure, they’re legit guys... in BIZARRO WORLD!!! I’ve had several people tell me that they’ve had meetings coming up with Big Vision for their projects, and I have to let them know, just like I’m telling you-they suck. Not to get too personal, but everyone I know that’s dealt with Kevin Kleinrock knows that YOU are his number ONE priority... as soon as he’s done dealing with his kids. He’ll call you immediately with the reasonably requested numbers you asked for. Oh wait...I still didn’t get those? Hmm. Suspicious. Houston is the great motivator who will tell you how he’s going to push your product to the moon. In fact, he’s got RVD TV DVD Vol 1 posted up for sale right now on the very front page! Thanks Houston. I hope you make enough money to make up for Celebrity Boxing, Kimbo Slice reality shows or any other projects I can help evade your dirty little hands. Shucks. He was probably just about to send me my annual royalty check, too.
Wouldn’t that be awesome if Houston called me and went all Mel Gibson on me? Dude, can you believe Mel? If it really is him, which we don’t know for sure. What we do know, is that the guy on the phone was an ass hole.If you have a relationship with anyone where it’s normal to talk to each other like that, get out if you can. If you can’t, because it’s a sibling or parent or something, rise above and realize how insane it sounds to treat anyone like that.
Are you guys getting excited about TNA yet? I know you are.Ratings show it. Besides, if I’m getting excited about it, I know there are many like-minded fans who are feeling the same energy. A very common question I get asked is “Are you having fun?” Lately, I think it’s getting fun for all of us, isn’t it? I believe that we’re doing just about everything outside of WWE that fans could care about right now. It sure would be nice to see Paul make a return , wouldn’t it? The shit is getting good! I have fas that haven’t watched wrestling in years, tell me they’re tuning in. I told you...patience! The circle of life continues, and every occurrence is a chance to prepare for a future experience.
I’ll see all you red neck fans from North Carolina next week, as I hit Winston-Salem, Fayetville, and Concord on the 29, 30, &31 respectively.
Wait...Salem Virginia too? Oh. Well, I’ll see you there next weekend then. Salem the 29th, and Winston Salem the 30th...I wonder if Salem and Winston-Salem are related. You think Mr. and Mrs. Salem got divorced, and Mrs Salem went back to her maiden name? Whatever.
There’s been a couple of different cases where kids that came up missing or were already missing in the last couple of weeks have made successful returns. One suspect that kidnapped a little 4-year old girl shot himself and saved the world the trouble of dealing with his sick ass. Thoughtful.We can’t give up hope on anyone missing. Especially after Jaycee Dugard returned in good heath after 18 years of captivity. I had kept the address for donations that was given at the end of a TV special on her, but fortunately, she won’t need our contributions. The state of California will pay her 20 MILLION DOLLARS for neglecting to rescue her. Hey! Hey! No refunds. The police reportedly even talked to the kid while she was captive and missed the opportunity to save her. The cops showed up to a sex-offender’s house on probation, responding to a call that kids are LIVING in this guy’s yard, and they don’t bother to search his property!
WTF? Can you imagine having her life? Kidnapped at 11 years old, released with children at 29, and awarded 20 million dollars?
Wow. just...wow. Crazy.
OK, I’m outta here.
Going to the Comic Con tomorrow.
Leaving early.
Stoked.
Catch you soon.
And when I do...
BANG.
we’ll talk about DDP>
late
