I went and saw Cloverfield last night.
It was an o.k movie. Little story line, visually appealing graphics. There were warnings about motion sickness, which I laughed at, until I had to close my eyes for 30 seconds during the movie to keep from barfing.
Basically it's another American Godzilla movie with a new twist.
What I did not know, or follow, was all the build up and fake sites that lead up to the movie.
I've found the 3 main ones from just googling certain words that kept popping up from a youtube video teaser.
This led me to find Tagruato. A drilling company, and producer of SLUSHO!
And finally the evil terrorists trying to bring it all down.
T.I.D.O Wave
I think I fully understand where the horrible monster came from, but I don't want to ruin it for everyone.
I always think this stuff is kind of lame, and then I find myself sifting through all the clues and having a bit of fun.

Fuck shit dick ass cunt
Oink went under.
I'm a little upset.
Now when you go to the site you will find this.
And I found this online:
British, Dutch police close file-sharing website OiNK, arrest its alleged manager
6 hours ago
LONDON - British and Dutch police shut down what they say is one the world's biggest online sources of pirated music Tuesday and arrested the website's 24-year-old suspected operator.
The invitation-only OiNK website specialized in distributing albums leaked before their official release by record companies, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry said.
Many among OiNK's estimated 180,000 members paid "donations" to upload or download albums, often weeks before their release, and within hours albums would be distributed through public forums and blogs across the Internet. Users were invited to the site if they could prove they had music to share, the IFPI said.
The IFPI said more than 60 major albums were leaked on OiNK so far this year, making it the primary source worldwide for illegal prerelease music.
Prerelease piracy is considered particularly damaging to music sales as it leads to early mixes and unfinished versions of artists' recordings circulating on the Internet months before the release.
Police in Cleveland, in northeast England, said they were tracing the money generated through the website, expected to amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The arrest of a 24-year-old IT worker at a house in Middlesbrough, northeast England, followed a two-year investigation by Dutch and British police and raids co-ordinated by Interpol.
Cleveland police said the man, whose name was not released, was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and infringement of copyright law.
OiNK's servers, in Amsterdam, were shut down by Dutch police, the IFPI said.
"OiNK was central to the illegal distribution of prerelease music online," said Jeremy Banks, the head of the IFPI's Internet Anti-Piracy Unit.
"This was not a case of friends sharing music for pleasure. This was a worldwide network that got hold of music they did not own the rights to and posted it online."
The IFPI is spearheading an international fight against all forms of Internet music piracy amid declining sales of physical CDs. Recorded music sales have fallen by more than a third internationally in the last six years.

The best part about it, is this:
Check out that ratio!!!
Fuck you stupid IFPI.

A dick in your face.
I recently contributed to this "zine", it's call a "A Paw In My Face". I think the name comes from some indie band, I'm not entirely sure.
This issue's, and supposedly last issue, topic was "love". I chose to write about my un-dying passion for garage sales, and tight bros. I was approached to write something via e-mail from former Red River instructor now buddy Chris, and fellow class mate - now Red River instructor Meagan.
I'm not too happy with the result of my contribution, but I feel it stands out to the rest of the writings/drawings/bullshit in the zine.
Here's my piece, it's entitled "No More Good Buys". I originally wanted to do an entire zine of garage sailing finds and adventures, but I'm lazy and no one would care anyways.
I was hoping next summer to make a documentary about garage sales and the weirdos that spend their entire life hunting for a living.
If you want to view the entire blog you can look here.
Or if you're one of the lucky few you'll find it at your local hip/head shop.
