What's with the names?

If you thought Snakes on a plane was swell of a name, you should know that there is a new one called Aliens in the attic.

I want them - katana

PBS had this documentary about katanas. Please add this to the list.

coheed & cambria.

Love the way the song starts off. Wish I could embed them here, but try youtube anyway.
Oh, this is from yet to be released movie 9

It seems they are from Nyack, NY. Should probably pay them a visit.

Workplace

"open offices - which intensify the noises and interruptions of others - increase the irritation factor in the workplace" says jonathan littman, author of book "I hate people".

Though I haven't read the book, I like the name.

Is that right?

And recently we have seen a slew of print ads, TV placements and almost everything in between for Sands, a casino based out of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

A casino in Bethlehem, is that right?

If you were about to open a spanking new casino, would you name it house of meat? Would you name it after the birthplace of David? And spend serious money, $743 million ?

What were they thinking? Let's open up a place where people throw away some money and establish it in a city called Bethlehem and actually promote with the name Bethlehem intact? That should bring in a lot of people.

That's two off the target demographics. Awesome!

Gentlemen of the Road

"This is not to say that I have never had adventures: I had my fill and more. Because adventures befall the unadventuresome as readily, if not as frequently, as the bold. Adventures are a logical and reliable result - and have been since at least the time of Odysseus - of the fatal act of leaving one's home , or trying to return to it again. All adventures happens in that damned and magical space, wherever it may be found or chanced upon, which least resembles one's home. As soon as you have crossed your doorstep or the country line, into that place where the structures, laws, and conventions of your upbringing no longer apply, where the support and approval (but also the disapproval and repression) of your family and neighbors are not to be had: then you have entered into adventure, a place of sorrow, marvels, and regret."

A fine book by Mr.Michael Chabon, one can buy the book here or anywhere else.

Come on Mr. Chabon, goyim enjoy your books too!
