Sledge hammer: 30 dollars
Crowbar: 20 dolars

"Safe" in the knowledge that smashing something isn't nearly as easy as it sounds, priceless.

do you just mash the keyboard with your forehead or have half of your fingers been smashed by sledge hammers?

While he does appear to write with his face, he does have a good point. At times I wonder if he is really that shit-poor at typing / writing, or if he runs a filter to mangle his words as a sort of test to see what comes of relatively good statements written in painfully bad typing / english.

Could it be that Westy is dyslexic, or just a non-native English speaker? At least you can still understand what he means, and he makes a valid point.

Westy could you enlighten us?

-wanna do an installation on a city lot....bring your tv, pay me 5 dollars to dispose of it properly- build a pyramid.....plenty of willing volunteers as the pile grows larger and larger-local news crews, what with the stripper car wash and all....

dispose of properly on youtube....picka relatively empty spot and charge locals a buck a swing with sledge hammers....reduce the bulk to mixed-media disposables.....(prob'ly be be the only one wearing a particulate mask, gloves, and basic hazmat gear...) last stop, landfill!!!

Reckon there's some money and fame in that installation??...fuck the fame,
"!!Me pagan, infieles!"

1) Smells like a dupe
2) I'm calling fake on the sledge hammer video, the the paper airplane video and the laptop-against wall video.

-There were no cables attached to the monitor when he hit it with the hammer - and why is there a hammer in the office anyway? It wasn't even on anyway.
-There were no cables attached at both ends of the monitor he threw behind himself.
-The laptop wasn't plugged in. Most likely anyone with a laptop at a desk would have it plugged in.

The first Naked Gun is great as well, but Police Squad is superior.

Sledge Hammer was another great show. I think there may be a clip on the Sift.
