A cigarette...or was it coffee? I dunno, it was one of the two.

Infantry Sniper. HHC Co. 1-18 IN, 2nd Brigade, 1st ID, US Army. I love rattling off my whole job title, only because it's damn near a run on sentence.

Haven't been on here in quite a while, due to work, deployment, etc, but I feel the best way to return is with some updated photos. http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/524192_10151031205087088_1223718663_n.jpg http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/s720x720/396319_1838357526943_1418296192_n.jpg And a non-army related one for good measure: http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc7/s720x720/293294_10150983602102088_41234747_n.jpg

I got 5 seconds into the trailer before I was like, "Dude, f**k that noise." Shit looks scary as hell.

Act of Valor Trailer This movie, being released in February 2012, stars an actual ensemble of active duty SEAL's, and is apparently based on a true story of tango-dropping, HALO-jumping, double-tapping, door-kicking awesomeness. I have extremely high hopes for this film, and perhaps it will finally present to me a military film where I don't watch it and go "Aww, that's bullshit." *cough* The Hurt Locker *cough* Kinda makes me think about dropping an SF packet...

Ah man, another one of these movies? Well, I guess I didn't need that sleep anyway... Looking forward to it!

As far as good opening acts go, I saw Muse open for U2 in '09 and it was absolutely legit. As for Rush, I think I'd have a joy-gasm if The Mars Volta toured with them. And if both bands had a jam session...oh man...imagine a La Villa Strangiato jam with TMV...Omar and Alex trading off solos...That'd be incredible.

Y'know, this guy never fails to make me smile. Geddyfan13, I salute you.

Nope. I carry a .45. I'm usually very easy to get along with anyway, but the 2 people I've ever had to point my civilian weapon at got the point ant popped smoke. Fist fighting is usually over something stupid. I like to think I'm above it.

Go the F**k to Sleep

Falling squarely in the latter camp is the currently un-named project that Mastodon guitarist Brent Hinds is working on with Dillinger Escape Plan guitarist Ben Weinman, former Mars Volta drummer Thomas Pridgen and ex-Jane's Addiction bassist Eric Avery. That's very good news for fans of forward-thinking rock music. Since the members of the project live on opposite sides of the country, progress been a bit slow. "We tried to get together and do an album, but there's been no time," Hinds recently told Noisecreep. "We want to record crazy stuff and Ben is working on that, but it's been hard to get together." Even though the project is officially nameless, Hinds wants to call it Giraffe Tongue "because they look sick." Yes, he's speaking about the actual tongue of a giraffe. We Googled an image of one and they are long, gray and, to borrow a phrase from Hinds, sick! Hinds is also hard at work promoting his Fiend Without a Face and West End Motel projects, as well as recording a new Mastodon album. Mastodon released a few song titles from their forthcoming album, one of which is 'Blasteroid,' which we told Hinds sounds like either a medical condition or a celestial body. "It is a combination of both, wrapped up in a video game," Hinds joked. http://images.cheezburger.com/completestore/2011/5/18/96c075b0-ec37-4c6d-b643-43e33ae90dbe.jpg Seriously. This is so awesome.
