I’m stoked that the Somali Pirates have been kicking so much ass lately. First they gank a boatload of Russian tanks probably headed for Sudanian Genocidelandia. Now they’ve hijacked a Saudi oil tanker. Elsewhere, they’re freeing Japanese hostages and collecting yen booty!!!

Monty python animated a canardian vampire interviewing a dead hippy. Stop wars yo…

In case you didn’t read the newzzz today [post, ht], America is at new highs in both our prison population and the percentage of our population in prison. We’ve smashed our records. We’re the worldwide champs. Most overall people in jail - 2, 300, 000! What’s up now, China? 1/99 Americans in jail! […]

Well most of us working stiffs here at the FV Ashram have to work today because we work for brutal overlords that hate civil rights. But that does not mean that we do. So at least take a few minutes out of your day to listen to the Good Doctor give his most famous speech […]

John Redden (and some silent partners) bought the Barbary in Fishtown and it just re-opened the other night. For what we’ve heard, the place is going to be really sweet and the DJ booth/soundsystem are going to be next level. 
The whole deal’s got me wondering if other bars/clubs/lounges are a bit worried, since John’s Socket and Hands & Knees […]

Huzzah! The Mets fell apart and now the Phillies are headed to the playoffs. My vampire ass definitely fears the curse, but perhaps this could be our year!

You heard it here first. That’s what our secret sources say at FV (foxtrot victor) Cuba Base Camp. We’ll get back to you with any proof. Not that you’ll need it if/when CNN is all over this shit. Either way, rumors are fun. We scooped the world. p.s. RIP Miami!

So as we wrote last week, we here at the FV Fun Palace got our bloody hands on a couple copies of Bioshock a full week before release thanks to the screw ups at Toys R Us. I’ve been playing the crap out of this game and i’m going to tell you a bit about […]

Why do some stay dry while others feel the pain? What makes you turn your head the other way? What raises your neighborhood insurance rates? Why does the bell curve blame the baby’s DNA? Chocolate Rain of course. If you have not heard of Tay Zonday and his song Chocolate Rain, I gotta ask what […]

This should really be pissing people off but no one even cares. The United States Army is putting it’s FPS game “America’s Army” in arcades around the country to recruit your children grown men to fight for the rich white guys in charge. Because you know war is just a game and no one ever […]

Cue that Amebix record: Remember a while back when two train hoppin’, soap dodgin’, circle-that-A types stomped another punk rocker to death on the roof of a West Philly squat and then hightailed it out of town before the long arm of the law could nab them? Well, guess what…they got CAUGHT!

OK i lied. My main man Dennis Kucinich is putting his interns up for adoption to help fund his fledgling campaign. Even though the man is the sanest person on the Democratic ticket with the best ideas he is also the man with the non-white-soundingest name, has a peace symbol in his logo and is […]

Everyone’s favorite non throwing quarterback has just be indicted for dog fighting charges including, trafficking animals, buying animals strictly for fighting and the biggest attention getter, TRAINING and BREEDING PIT BULLS FOR FIGHTING PURPOSES.

Fuck the 4th of July. This is Independence Day. Live free, America!

Our main man Andy over at Reference Library emailed me a link this morning i just had to share. Remember the old HBO bumper before movies? I know i didn’t have HBO either but some of my friends did and that intro is etched into my brain. Ah, the little HBO city and space ship […]

Every one’s favorite vocal Philadelphian racist, (you need to see his showcase of motorcycles covered in Confederate flags, which is extra odd since he’s a Yankee!) Joey Vento is featured currently on the front page of BBC News. Señor Joey, the owner of Geno’s Steaks is once again in the limelight due […]

Blam! Philly just hit 200 murders in 2007.  That’s pretty pathetic.

I am an Apple Computers kind of a guy. I have (but never use) an ipod, I’ve had 3 powerbooks, a powermac, I use a macmini at home and an imac G5 at work. But let me tell you this, the iphone is a piece of garbage. Sure it looks kind of pretty on […]

 
My name is Brian Labuda and I hate the Christian Right.
