As An Occupier, Do you Quit When a One Day "Zombie-Crawl" Out Draws Your Fringe Movement You've been Working on For Weeks?

Zombies of all ages, shapes and fake blood types converged on the 16th Street Mall on Saturday for Denver's 6th annual Zombie Crawl. Daniel Newman, the 31-year- old founder of the event, estimated that 12,000 zombies were in or near Skyline Park an hour and a half after the crawl began. Many participants took the opportunity to parody the Occupy Wall Street movement. Justin Smith, 28, Valerie Rudden, 29, and Nick Pantier, 28, all from Denver, came to the event as "zombie-occupiers." They wielded cardboard signs splattered in fake blood that read, "corporate greed did this" and "coming for the 1 percent." "We aren't here as hard-core Occupy Denver people," Smith said. "It's a good movement to support and raise awareness of, but we are just down here for fun."

Clearest sign yet that the Occupy movements aren't going to catch on with regular, every day, main street Americans? When an organized Zombie-Crawl, not only A) Mocks you, but, B)Out draws you for a one day event when you've been protesting for a month in some locations.

Seriously, 12,000 people for a one day crawl? And you didn't have to camp out in a tent for weeks on end to achieve that number? Maybe you occupiers should appeal to these freaks, huh? How many people are at Occupy Boston on an average day? 500-1,000? 1500 at most? So tomorrow I could publish fliers, maybe get news attention, and tell everyone to show up on the Greenway on Saturday in full Zombie costume, and that would out draw your rinky-dink movement? That's probably the most damning evidence yet that this movement just isn't going to catch on...People would rather dress up as Zombies and stroll around the city aimlessly than hang out in a smelly tent town working on vague and all encompassing protests.

Keep up the good work occupiers. 

By the way, Kudos to these people that went balls out as Zombies, they look legit, like Hollywood movie legit.

My Two Cents on the Boston Area Day Spas Busted for Prostitution

Day spas raided for prostitution, drugs: MyFoxBOSTON.com

BOSTON (FOX 25 / MyFoxBoston.com) - 45-year-old Terry Mussari plead not guilty to charges of deriving support from prostitution in Brockton District court today. The Stoughton woman allegedly offered to provide an undercover State Police trooper with 12 women who would perform sex acts at a party in return for a payment of $1,720, a prosecutor said in court today.

So this has been the big story in Boston the past two days, and honestly I couldn't have given less of a shit about it at first, big whoop a chain of day spas were busted for prostitution, what else is new? But then two things happened, 1) Details were released about the police sting, which are absolutely ludicrous, and 2) Stories about annonymous tips kept getting released.

We'll start with the police sting, which apparently was some kind of elaborate scheme involving a bachelor party all coming for massages and happy endings...this one is strictly on the owner of the spa for stupidity...Never in my life have I heard of a bachelor party booking trips to the day spa, you've got to know something is up when a dude calls in for appointments for himself and 10 of his closest friends. It's just fucking weird, even with the promise of happy endings. Maybe it's just not my bag, but the last thing I'd want to do on my bachelor party is hang out at some day spa while all my closest friends take turns busting a nut, that's just a weird way to party.

Secondly, who the hell are the annonymous tipsters? What's their deal? Like I've already said, this isn't exactly my scene, but I'm not going to rush off and report a masseuse to the police for offering a little extra at the end. Just a simple no thanks and I'll be on my way. I mean, you have to go out of your way to report this to the police, this isn't a quick and simple 911 call, you've got to find the local police number, call in, go through their directory of various officers for various different crimes, leave a message (because god forbid a real live person answer the phone at a police department for once), and hope they call you back...All told, you're probably filing your police report like a week to two weeks later, all over some girl offering you a quick tug? Hardly seems worth the effort. 

Come Dove Hunting In Mexico! They'll Provide Armed Police Security for All Gringos!

Putting aside the fact that it's hard to believe Dove Hunting was a fluourishing tourist attraction in the first place, I'd say its about time that Mexico gave up on trying to attract tourists for a while and focus more on maybe eradicating tourist murdering drug lords.

When it's to the point where you have to assign me a newly created armed police guard for my dove hunting excursion, it's probably safe to assume I won't be getting on that flight. Hey, thanks for the effort Mexico, but as a general rule of thumb, if I'm carrying around a gun, and still don't feel safe enough and require a police detail, it's just probably not worth the risk.

Not to mention that you had to go out of your way to create a completely new police force because your last police force were basically body guards for the drug cartels.

And who are the complete nutbags signing up for this new police force? I'm pretty sure you'd have to pay me a hell of a lot more than 3x the regular police to turn down a bribe from Pablo Escobar...Like yea, $1,800 a month in Mexico is pretty damn good, but these guys are probably still better off taking the bribe. I mean $1,800 means nothing when you're dead in a shallow grave.

PS: This guy at the .30 second mark isn't helping your case...Another general rule of thumb for tourism is the guy trying to sell me on my vacation shouldn't be 10x more frightening than the villain in No Country For Old Men...this guy is fucking terrifying. No way in hell I'd go on a hunt with this man.

My Completely Rational Hate For Cecilia Cassini

You know how you just have irrational hate for some people? Like there's no real reason for you to hate them but you just do? This isn't that. This is the most rational hate I've ever had in my life.

Jesus H. Fuck you little girl. And I know how terrible of a person that sentence made me, but this isn't your average child. This girl is a class A bitch. Like Lohan's character in Mean Girls would be a tame version of her...she's definitely got her parents bunking in the kids room while she takes over the Master Suite. Could you just act like a real person? You're like a gay man trapped in a child's body, it's so fucking weird.

And honey, I hate to tell you this, but you've got clothes like a dickhead. Just because you stuck tinkerbell wings on the back of a dress they sell at Target doesn't make you special. It means some fashionista with an eye for little girls thought your dress was cute and need an "in" to get close with you. You can't just go walking around looking like a Disney fairy in real life outside of Halloween week.

Easily the best part of this girls life is going to be the day she shows up on page 6 of some gossip rag all strung out in her mug shot...but at least you'll look totally cute in your ridiculous clothes...

See, completely rational.

A Quick Mark Sanchez Rant, Just to Get It Off My Chest

He 100% sucks...Like there's no getting around it. That wasn't even close to his worst play yesterday, probably cracks the top 5 but its definitely not the worst...And the Jets still won! What the fuck!?

Honestly, this guy made some kinda deal with the Devil. I've never seen a worse quarterback consistently have his team pull games out of their asses to save a guys job than the Jets have over the last 3 years...By all accounts Sanchez is one of the three or four worst QB's in the National Football League...I'm not looking at stats to back this up, strictly the eyeball test, but I'm sure if anyone really challenges me, I can find the stats, he blows, which as a Pats fan, I'm happy with. But as a fan of football, I can't stand it. This guy makes Akili Smith look calm and confident.  That happy feet routine of his drives me insane, irrationally raises my blood pressure every time I see him do it, I can't even imagine what it's like to route for this team while he's doing it.

And the sad thing, for Jets fans, is that they keep winning. Sounds ridiculous, right? But it's not...The best thing for the Jets as a franchise would have been to have this team lose the last two games, they'd be sitting at 2-5 and Rex would have had no choice but to bench the Sanchize...Instead the team keeps lifting the kid up, winning just enough games to allow him to keep his job, despite the fact that if this team had a halfway competent QB in any of the last 3 season, there's a strong chance the would have one Lombardi Trophy. 

It's to the point where I'm fairly certain Pete Carroll is going to have a press conference any day now just to announce that he still doesn't think Mark Sanchez is ready for the NFL, three years in. He's easily the worst USC QB in the NFL, and Carson Palmer through 3 int's in less than half a game yesterday...That's how little I think of Mark Sanchez.

Rant over. (I just proof read this, my blood pressure rose just reading it outloud...I mean really can't stand the guy)

Golden Corral Has a Chocolate Fountain...Has the CDC Been Notified?

I don't know if this is a new thing for Golden Corral or not, but I have to assume it is, because if this thing doesn't spawn the creation of some kinda brand new global killer plague within the next 6 months, I'll be flat out shocked.

Have you seen some of the people who dine at these strictly buffet style restaurants? Not exactly the picture of health. Now it's bad enough we've got them reaching in and grabbing food out of trays that have been just sitting there under heat lamps for hours on end, now we've got them dipping said food into a chocolate fountain, with that chocolate just recycling itself over and over again...The first Leper that visits one of these things is going to kick off a zombie apocalypse all on his own...just flakes of skin spreading through everyones chocolate.

I can't take it anymore, I'm gagging just  sitting here looking at it.

Most Fish in Boston Restaurants is Mislabeled...I Couldn't Care Less.

Boston - The sliver of raw fish sold as white tuna at Skipjack’s in Foxborough was actually escolar, an oily, cheaper species banned in Japan because it can make people sick. The Alaskan butterfish at celebrity chef Ming Tsai’s Blue Ginger in Wellesley was really sablefish, traditionally a staple at Jewish delicatessens, not upscale dining establishments. Those were among the findings of a five-month Globe investigation into the mislabeling of fish. It showed that Massachusetts consumers routinely and unwittingly overpay for less desirable, sometimes undesirable, species - or buy seafood that is simply not what it is advertised to be. In many cases, the fish was caught thousands of miles away and frozen, not hauled in by local fishermen, as the menu claimed. It may be perfectly palatable - just not what the customer ordered. 

Maybe I'm in the minority here, but I honestly don't care...When it comes to fish, Salmon is pink, just about everything else is white and you can call it whatever you want, I thought everyone knew that.

My feeling is, if you're sitting there telling me you can tell the difference from one fillet of fish to another, after its been seasoned, baked, fried, grilled, etc...Then I'll tell you to your face that you're full of shit. I mean the investigators didn't figure this out by eye balling it or tasting it or anything, they had to go back to the lab to run DNA tests on the fish! That's insane.

Basically my philosophy is, if the fish is over $15, I'm not buying it...because it all tastes the same. You could fish whatever creatures inhabit the Mystic River, fry it up, maybe throw some Cajun spices on it, put it on my plate and tell me its exotic Vietnamese Catfish, and I'd smile happily and devour it. Couldn't care less.

The only people who really care about this are the fish snobs getting ripped off for paying $20+ for a piece of fish they could've caught off the Tobin.  The people who order a fish because it sounds fancy...I buy fish if the seasoning, style, and sides sound good.  I've never once thought, mmmm, I need a piece of plain-jane Cod...No, I want that Cod beer battered and served with fries, and if you subsititute Haddock for that Cod to save money, that's fine by me, I won't know the difference.

Cod? Haddock? Tuna? Snapper? Don't know, Don't Care

The Witch Hunt Continues: Joe Torre (Mr. Yankee) To Investigate Drinking Habits of Red Sox Players

Official Album of the 2011 Red Sox Clubhouse

ARLINGTON, Texas — Major League Baseball executive vice president of baseball operations Joe Torre said just a few minutes ago that his office will look into the drinking that was going on during games in the Red Sox clubhouse this season. “It’s something we’re concerned about, just to make sure that we get all the facts and that’s my area,” Torre said. “I know I have plans just to talk to some people.” Torre said there not yet any set plan for what MLB's investigation would entail. "It’s something we’re going to look at and find the best way to approach it, let’s put it that way," he said. "That’s one thing where I feel comfortable, the fact that I played and I managed. I have no problem talking to someone in regards to baseball, whether it’s behavior or otherwise.”

Oh, thats freaking Rich...Mr. Joe Yankee is going to investigate the Red Sox for BeerandChicken-Gate? Like we as fans haven't been through enough with the team tanking right into the history books, the ownership throwing Tito under the bus (and then slamming it in reverse to really make sure they got him good), Boston's two sports radio stations having a competition to see who can cover the team in the largest pile of dog shit, and our Boy Wonder GM tucking his sack back, admitting he made mistakes, and fleeing for a fresh start (I don't hate Theo, he's got the right to work wherever he wants, but leaving the team in shambles doesn't rank highly on his career list of achievements, that's all).  

Now we've got someone I, and most Red Sox fans I assume, associate as closely to the Yankees as they do Derek Jeter, leading an inquisition into the drinking habits of the Sox players...Under the guise of having to be role models for kids who watch the game.  Like anyone really believes that shit...

1) Kids don't watch baseball. It starts at 7:15 and ends after 11 most nights, hell, the Word Series is on after my bedtime, and I'm an adult. 2) The players openly chew tobacco during games, no one says a word...I guess it's not as big a deal as drinking, it only causes cancer, no biggie. 3) It took well over a decade for the league to attempt to irradicate performance enhancers, the fact that they've launched an inquiry into these drinking allegations after only 3 weeks is probably the fastest the commissioners office has ever worked.

No, I'm pretty sure this is just Bud Selig's chance to take down the Sox a peg (who I'm fairly sure he dislikes after routinely flaunting MLB's Draft slotting guidelines, and carrying out the compensation negotiations for Theo like an unreasonable fantasy owner). And what better man to head up the investigation than Joe Torre, Mr. Yankee himself, just to stick it in the fans and ownerships craw.

Occupy Boston Tagging Up the City, Menino About to Go All 2007 Aqua Teen Hoax on Their Asses

Official Shitter of the Occupy Movement

Boston police are investigating a rash of graffiti in the city's financial district that appears to be in support of the nearby Occupy Boston movement. Police say nearly two dozen locations, including banks, were hit over the weekend by spray-painted messages that say things such as "End the Fed" and "Tax the Rich." Some of the graffiti includes a capital A in a circle, a symbol used by anarchists. Police say they have made no arrests but are looking at surveillance video from the area. Protesters from Occupy Boston are living in a tent city on the edge of the financial district. Some protesters say vandalism is counterproductive to their goals and they don't condone the graffiti.

Cue all the overly liberal friends of yours from college claiming conspiracy today! I haven't logged in to Facebook yet but I can think of three people in my feed that should be all over this and I'm almost guaranteeing that 2 of the 3 will blame Menino or the Boston Police for the Grafiti, using it as a set up to disperse Occupy Boston.

Because it would be absolutely unfathomable to think that out of 100's of people living in tents in the middle of down town, not one of them is a bad egg who would lash out in an illegal way in support of their cause. Impossible, just wouldn't happen, right guys? Out of all those people down there making creative posters all day long like it's their job (oh yea, it is...), it would be way too much of a stretch to assume a few of them are into tagging.

Glad you guys had fun while it lasted, but I'd say your time has just about run out. Menino will tolerate a lot, spitting on female coast guard members, absolutely ruining the Greenway which just happens to be the best park in the city, listening to Marxist chants from entitled students and chuckling, and even paying for police detail overtime, but I'm pretty sure when you lash out like immature children or adults that never grew up, that's where Mumbles will draw the line....Lest we forget the guy basically called for martial law in 2007 when some guerilla markters for Aqua Teen Hunger Force went around pinning up Lightbrite pictures of cartoon characters...I'm pretty sure he's going to throw a shit fit once he ties this grafiti back to the Occupy Camp.

Of course all this would've been avoided if you'd rented a hall a couple weeks ago and let leadership organize your group and run it like a real organization instead of a bunch of ragamuffins.
