Cannibal Warlords of Liberia In Britain, the civil war in Liberia tends to get little to no press, unless Naomi Campbell is testifying about her blood diamonds.

Wrestling is Awesome XIX: Brainbustaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!!!
The brainbuster itself is a very simple yet immensely effective move. Add the corner turnbuckle and a generic luchador, and you have an awkward looking move than looks like it will probably break your neck. Inventive and viscious. Ole! Continue reading »
Thursday Thive: Nirvana Album Tracks
Oh Nirvana. Everyone knows, and everyone loves the big songs that came from their albums. Nirvana were a hell of a lot more than a singles band though, and the strength of the songs that would make up the rest of their albums was often astounding. Here’s my top thive. 5: ‘Scentless Apprentice’ (In Utero) … Continue reading »

Feed Me Kobasice
For some reason yesterday, I walked all the way out to Zemun. Thats a 6 km walk for those who don’t know. Sure, it isn’t much, but for a man of lack of total fitness, it is absolutely crippling. Still, its a really nice walk, all the way along the Danube river with a great … Continue reading »
