Be safe, but keep it mind, it's really funny when you shoot bottle rockets out of your ass. Always a party/bbq pleaser. Always.

With the price of gas, the state of the economy, and the expanding gap between the wealthy and the poor in our country, it's great to see that it doesn't matter what comes out of your mouth because if you're getting paid, you're getting paid! And that's freedom!
A correction needs to be made to the livingproof blog today. (see WHAT AN ASSHOLE ! ! ! ) Today's most outrageously undeserving ASSHOLE award goes to RUSH LIMBAUGH. Please step up to receive you're paycheck, which, instead of being used to solve our recession crisis, research environmentally friendly energy sources, feed the hungry, or save the world, is being given to a man who is openly and very adamantly opposed!!! to the aforementioned causes. Good call America.
So if you haven't already heard, it was just announced that our main man Rush was just given a contract that guarantees him $$$38MILLION.FUCKING.DOLLARS.A.YEAR. And that doesn't even include the 9 figure bonus he gets just for agreeing to receive $$$38MILLION.FUCKING.DOLLARS.A.YEAR and have the freedom to say anything he wants about whatever. This is so nasty that even he agrees saying, "I'm having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have."

...
I'm sorry. Let me scrape my jaw off of the floor right quick so I can go on to explain why we love him so much:

• He's doesn't think that scientific evidence has properly proven that global climate change is at all a possibility. I mean me neither. Is that snow? In July? Weird.

• He LOVES feminists stating that "Feminism was established to allow unattractive women easier access to the mainstream of society." And abortion... damn he loves it.
• He's a supporter of capital punishment.
• In regards to the torture and abuse at Abu Ghraib he strongly supports the troops. Releasing pent up negative energy on prisoners is def OK! After all they're "just having a good time"
• Oh. And he's extremely racists.

What's not to love? It's a good thing he's the face and voice of the Conservative Party. But for the record, he doesn't support either Obama or McCain... only Hillary. But Premiere Radio Networks - the company dishin' out the big bucks to call Limbaugh their own in order to keep the good ol' fashion radio in competition with new aged Internet and satellite radio - openly supports McCain. It's whatever though because they've already proven it doesn't matter what he says. They keep him because he's so much fun to hate! In fact, of the reported 14 million listeners per week, over half reported being of an unfavorable opinion of what he says. So I might be making things up but does it seem like he's being paid to say ridiculous things so that people can talk about how absurd he is? Hmmm. Well, while I struggle to make a buck, enjoy your $38 mill Rush! CLEARLY you deserve it.

Our friends over at KCDC Skateshop just released a Vans Chukka Low in collaboration with Neckface. Only 100 pairs were made, only available at KCDC. Complex has a nice little interview with the woman in charge over at KCDC, Amy Gunther. In it, she talks about how the collabo came about, receiving Neckface's mail, and a line of artist series shirts done exclusively for the shop.

Happy Birthday, America! 10.Deep has a present for you: a special, limited to 200 pieces release of Murko in a Patriot color way sporting a t-shirt with a delicious message on the back. Also, as an added bonus, he's got an even more special "Patriot Murko loves America" video:

It's Remember Whensday again! Check out this week's Remember When?

With an over abundance of superhero flicks popping up this summer Will Smith and the Hancock crew decided to give it a whirl. With IRONMAN, THE INCREDIBLE HULK and WANTED already out it had a huge list to climb especially with IRONMAN being as successful as it was.

i wouldn't say that it was as good as IRONMAN, but it holds it own. the movie sets the tone within the first 5 minutes. the movie starts out with a not quite sober Hancock trying to sleep on a public bench. unfortunately his slumber was interrupted by a young kid who awakes our hero and says "Hancock . . . bad guys!" (while pointing at a TV set in an electronic store front showing a high speed police chase.) Hancock slowly wakes up obviously with a splitting headache and says "So! . . . you wanna a cookie?" the kid replies with "your an ass hole! . . ." with this you get the basics of the first half of our movie, Hancock the Asshole, but it makes for a hilarious and entertaining first half. the rest of the movie isn't bad and Jason Bateman actually does a really great job with his character.

over all i enjoyed the movie and say it ties for 2nd among the summer hero movies with the HULK. unfortunately for all the said hero movies that released so far this summer the one with the best chance to knock IRONMAN off its thrown is due to release on July 18th, and that of coarse is BATMAN : the DARK KNIGHT

It's that time again. Summer. When Philadelphia shrugs off the cold shoulder it's been wearing all winter and welcomes with more than open arms the swarms of eager tourists that flock to see all the places and shit that people did back in the day when our country was but a young bull. Long story short: Philadelphia loves tourists more than fat kids love cheese cake... or cheese steaks! ba-dump bump! Lucky for us, we're stuck in the heart of the oldness of our city here at the 2one5 office. This means you can't walk around without being bombarded by school aged children quacking at you from the boat/bus duck things, rounding a corner and running into an old woman carrying a basket and dressed head to toe like she's from the 1800's, and lunchtime parades of everyday people being guided into battle - drums beating - with wooden rifles on their shoulders. It's weird man.
But now they've taken it too far. Philadelphia we see what you're doing. And, now that we do, we're no longer subscribing to the magazine you keep heckling to us!!! Nope.
Benjamin Franklin and Betsy Ross are getting married. For real. You can come. The entire city (but really those tourists lucky enough to be in town for the WELCOME AMERICA celebration) are invited. Ok so it's not really Betsy Ross - the woman responsible for the first American flag ever sewn - nor is it the real Benjamin Franklin - the over achiever we cherish here in Philadelphia for his kite with a key in the lightning, electricity and bifocal inventing, founding father-ism. It's just the funny little actor people who get all dressed up and into character. Isn't it cute. What a historically funny pun! I, for one, am utterly disturbed by this. And I'm afraid I might be the only one. Here's what's wrong with this situation. I will be using the money sign system. $$$ = wow they're reallly taking advantage of these tourists. $$= that's prettty sneaky. & $= fair game.:

• Benjamin Franklin is 46 years older than Betsy Ross. Well. In real life they were. That's a little too Lolita for me. Ew. $$$ for historical inaccuracy

• When the people responsible for roping in the tourists and making the big bucks for the city caught wind of this unbelievably opportunistic occurrence, they begged the couple... or more like told the couple, they were having their wedding during the Welcome America celebration. That's a full year before the couple had planned. $$$ for being dictator-esq

• They invited the city. It's in front of independence hall. It screams Patriotism. $ fair enough

• They're making them get married in full costume! In the heat of the summer! $$ that's just cruel.

• Nobody in the city actually knows this is going on. I don't think we received the invite. Thanks. $$

YAY America. WELCOME. We've swept our streets, painted over our graffiti and put our guns away. Just don't wander too far away from the liberty bell / independence hall area. $$$$$$

well with hearing only good things about this movie and seeing other reviews that gave this flick high ratings i expected a little more, BUT (and thats a huge but) it is an awesome movie to watch. the concept and plot are a little lame but the action in this movie is amazing. if you like high action and are one of those people that don't mind the whole bloody shoot em up type movies then defiantly check WANTED out.

Well for those of you who don't know who Remi Gaillard is he is a french born prakster, who is famous for disguising himself in order to gain access to certain events. in one case he posed as a Lorient football player in the 2002 Coupe de France final match. it went as far as him holding the trophy and giving a television interview.

well hes at it again.

thanks to wooster
