Yo Dawg, I Heard You Like Tanks
Sat, March 13, 2010 
It looks like Xzibit was touring Russia recently and got his hands on this beast. A Moscow businessman bought this armored personnel carrier and had his ride pimped. This amphibious vehicle gets the wheels churning with a 5.5 L diesel engine. If the main four wheels aren't enough for you, there are four more tucked under the center which deploy at the push of a button to help over obstacles (zombies). If rolling around in this isn't quite enough fun for you, it's also quipped with all sorts of gadgets including: multi-speaker sound system, GPS, TV, DVD, night vision, sonar (for the amphibious adventures), and a periscope. Yeah, a periscope. It's registered and street legal, which means we'll more than likely be seeing some video footage of this guy having a bad day at some point in the future.

Trololo Singer Edhuard Khil Reacts to the Parodies
Fri, March 12, 2010 
Three Fridays back we celebrated the greatest day of the work week with the original Trololo song. Since then the song has been stuck in my head non-stop. You would think I'd be kind of upset by it, but I've learned to just accept it as part of my brain. We celebrate this Friday with an interview with the man himself, Edhuard Khil.
You couldn't ask for a better response.
