  • Rockadelic said: I may be wrong, but I think what's fishy and what you're glossing over is we don't send armed troops to collect debts from citizens...ever. Well, apparently you do, at least when the debtor is connected to an armed mili…

  • HarveyCanal said: ...Of course, all I would need to do to change all of this is start believing everything the New York Times throws at me... Yeah, the New York Times is for wimps. Real men get their news from infowars.com
  • The only fragment of what could be called reasoning is the collapsing towers looking like a controlled demolition. Don't you think that it would have been much easier to demolish the towers in a more un-controlled looking manner? Like place all char…
  • HarveyCanal said:To the question of: How could anyone think these were hoaxes? Let me get this straight. You are so curious that you haven't even tried Google? If you do try Google you get a pretty clear picture of the dubious and half-…
  • I celebrated Record Store Day by illegally downloading a bunch of punk and rock to be blasted at the gym. Pretty much all Record Store Day products I've ever seen are nothing but a waste of perfectly good plastic.
  • Conspiracies are so 1980s... with the wealth (probably the wrong word here) of news and information available today, most people stopped giving much of a shit about anything a long time ago. OK, they still cultivate some conversational, recreational…
  • Rockadelic said: Al exploits human guilt and puts cash in his pocket.......to me that's worse than the detriments of Industrialization. I don't know... the "exploitation of human guilt" is probably as old as prostitution and both are concep…
  • The entire global warming discussion is intellectually dishonest and total bullshit any way you look at it. I mean to think that the degree of pollution we caused since the beginning of industrialization did not cause any severe effects on the chemi…
  • I once heard a part of an Al Gore speech about how urgent it was to take action if we would want to make sure that "humans will inhabit this earth forever" and I immediately felt a deep and unsettling chill. What a truly horrific vision this would b…
  • How do you guys rate Vancouver in comparison to Montreal? I have to say I'm quite a bit of a Vancouver fan. Most amazing seafood. Then it's a short ferry ride away from Vancouver Island which I visited once for 2 weeks and was like some sort of a Lo…
  • DustedDon said:95% of the Death Waltz releases are incredible but you're right the NY Ripper art is kinda janky.... I mean the genre of euro exploito movies is just packed with incredible, original artwork and imagery from the era... in most c…
  • HarveyCanal said: Guns are to protect individual selves as well as to protect us collectively from tyranny. You can't want freedom and not want individuals to be free to own their own guns. I'm not against gun ownership per se but I'm …

  • I had a dj gig there some 3 (?) years back. Great, local charcuterie, forgot which place but the best I ever had outside of France and great wines (my host was a sommelier). Next day pre-party bbq with more amazing food, killer party at great, Haiti…

  • LazarusOblong said: Give Ken Bruen and Charles Willeford a shot. And absolutely Derek Raymond's "Factory" series. I'm a huge fan of Charles Willeford and Derek Raymond so I just went ahead and ordered two Ken Bruen novels...
  • Horseleech said:I never had Percebes, do you just saute and eat? They're incredibly tasty, there's a reason why they're 50,- Euro a kilo in Spain or Portugal (way above the market price for lobster). I've only ever seen them boiled and wouldn'…
  • Flomotion said:A bowl of these, a good, cold vinho verde or a quality beer and I'm in heaven. I know that Portuguese explorers/traders were eating percebes in the Americas in the 16th century ... mostly found in Europe I think but they crop up …
