all modern military fighter jets pucker their assholes; in this one the assholes (thrusters) can pivot around, like if you were to strap rockets on your boots and steer some by aiming your feet... anyhow, thats why its kind-of a big deal, and the reason why it can flip around in a loop in like 2 seconds.

So? The Russians can pucker the assholes on their planes as well as their pilots. Big whoop.

Did you know that some invertebrates (like the octopus and cuttlefish) have a colorless blood that turns green-blue when oxygenated? Instead of iron, their respiratory system makes use of copper to transport oxygen. The theory is that in cold, high pressure, low-oxygen places this mechanism functions more efficiently.

hey man, had you seen this? think it was posted before? http://www.videosift.com/video/Dacari-and-Donells-Demo-Tape-twisted-and-brilliant

Its nice to meet a like-minded soul on the old superhighway. Thanks for dropping me a line.

The two heavy sifters on here I have found to be most consistently awesome are plastiquemonkey and farhad2000 (tellingly, plastique oversees 'art' and farhad 'obscure' in case you hadn't noticed). Plastiquemonkey in particular always seems like she's just one step ahead of me, where I'll just hear about somebody cool and notice she posted 3 videos of them a year ago. Unfortunately, also like me, she disappears for months on end, posting barely anything. Issykitty, Deano, deputydog also post great stuff, along with a number of other people...

I went through your videos. I like your style. That band Supercar has a few things on Amazon but they run upwards of 55 dollars for an album. Are they that obscure?

I imagine all the old Supercar is import-only, without a U.S. label releasing it. They broke up a few years back, too, and I don't know if much of their stuff has been re-released. I remember a friend had a dvd of their last concert, I think called 'Last' or something. Some of the members are doing solo stuff now, so you can look around for that.

This guy is also a supercar fan, so you might want to ask him whats up with getting their cd's. http://www.videosift.com/member/JAPR

*obscure like whoa

I was speaking on an instinctual tip. Where is the value in preserving the unborn fetus of a stranger you'll never meet? What natural behavior could be extended to this extreme? ... leads back to the question as to why so many creatures are highly social.

In reply to this comment by Farhad2000:

As to preserving gene pool, I think that's too wide to even consider, if that was really the case then those very same pro-lifers would adopt African babies living in utter poverty to provide a chance for them to develop properly. That never happens. I find the whole movement to always possess an inability to see the issue beyond the sanctity of life, which even then is ironic for while one wants babies to live we support wars that kill so much more, yet had the conditions of rape or incest applied to them the tables turn.

hell-yeah it was voiced by colbert!

I see you changed the tags on my Ace and Gary video - Was that voiced by Colbert?

Are you saying there are pro-war news stations? Oh, you mean pro-Iraq war; Fox News. Well sure, Fox News could show funeral processions for fallen soldiers or hospitals full of Iraqi civilians after a bombing run... the footage exists, but we both know why they don't.

I think you should give the NewsHour a chance sometime if you havn't. Its no-frills national and world news free of opinions and commentary. I first really started watching it because their embedded journalists were letting the soldiers do the talking (instead of some asshat in the greenzone giving their opinion). If they have a slant thats against people dying, well, I would hope that is just a reflection of the default human condition.

That's good to know, but don't you think that a Pro-war news station should be doing that?

... not a PBS watcher? NewsHour with Jim Lehrer closes with name, rank, and hometown accompanying a picture of every fallen soldier as the news is broken and pictures are made available, each shown in silence for 5 or 6 seconds.


In reply to this comment by MarineGunrock:
I'm not saying that each one should have a detailed write-up - but would 15 fucking seconds really hurt that bad? Rank, name, location and event of death - Is that really so much to ask? Regardless if you support the war or not, you should still care about the troops.
