Malaguena Salerosa Chingonized by director Robert Rodriguez’s band, Chingon. A more traditional version here. Great song, either way you slice it.

Heading To The Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival This Weekend
There’s a lot going on in Los Angeles this weekend. Grilled Cheese Festival, Festival of Books, Poppies… LOTB is heading out to the Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival. Food, live music on five stages and beer all on a dusty western movie set (location of HBO’s Deadwood). Done and done. Hope to see you there.
Hockey Playoffs Heat Up: Kings vs Canucks – Enjoy It While It Lasts
Let’s face it, after hockey and basketball playoffs are over the sports world goes into hibernation until the NFL cranks back up for preseason in August and opening day in September. Until then it’s going to be a steady diet of golf and baseball for the sports minded. Nothing against baseball, but meaningless mid-season games [...]
Calsberg Employees Fight Tyranny
Everyone’s heard the story of Carlsberg employees walking off the job because of drinking restrictions, yes? Umm, Carlsberg… Oops, got a little distracted.

“Rushing the Growler”

Tiger Abides At The Masters
Tiger Woods cares as much about LOTB’s personal life as I do his. It’s a bond we share. If the proof is in the pudding about what golf fans think about Tiger, than the pudding is all over the over-hyping media opportunists collective face. They jumped at the chance to profit and feast on Woods [...]
Team Fortress 2 – Law Abiding Engineer
Via Haha.nu. There’s a cool slit screen with the original…Of course LOTB likes anything that “abides.”
Vinnie Pazienza
One of LOTB’s favorite fighters is/was the Pazmanian Devil, Vinnie Pazienza. Every time I see fighters whining about money and rules – dodging fights while having the boxing establishment, from top to bottom, lie to sell pay per view fights they know are crap, I think of Vinnie Pazienza – training in a halo after [...]
Six Pack Trailer
No pun intended but, movie “vehicles” for popular music stars are nothing new. Usually they’re throw away films aimed at gift wrapping a commercial opportunity for the star. Six Pack remains charming because there’s nothing more lovable than foul mouthed criminal orphans and someone had the vision to not make Kenny Rogers a struggling musician.
