KSNO supports Harvey Dent for D.A



New viral campaign for the upcoming Dark Knight film features some pretty cool stuff including free t-shirts, stickers and even rallies for the the campaign of Harvey Dent. For those of you who are not uber nerds like me, Harvey Dent is a the DA for Gotham City and close friend of Batman, but when a criminal disfigures one side of his face he becomes the criminal master mind Two-Face.


Not necessarily insider knowledge but its really cool how the production company and writers are going about creating this prequel material and selling it to the public. It really makes me happy to see this much detail and preparation going into the film. And with the addition of Dent i can reasonably assume that Two-Face will play a major roll in the upcoming films.

More Dent Material here and here. Apparently if you email these sites they are fully functional and will write back to you, very neat stuff. Expect more things like this answer site featuring these cards to come up as we get closer.

Hooray for the GOP!


"Scooter" Libby got disbarred the other day which made me really happy. After the rage I felt with his sentence being commuted I wasn't sure how I would handle him walking away again. He was disbarred for moral turpitude, which is something I'm sure everyone in that administration could be hit with...

John McCain, every ones favorite "elder statesman" finally sealed the deal with the devil by doing a complete 180 and supporting Jerry Falwell, the same man he denounced as "an agent of intolerance" in his 2000 campaign. Looks like he realized that the only group still willing to vote for a republican candidate is the christian right. Got to at least act the part I guess...

In addition to begging the extreme right for votes, McCain also found time to do some straight talk about economics (though he admits he is unqualified in this area). In a lengthy speech McCain told those on the verge of bankruptcy to suck it up because the goverment is not going to help you.

“It is not the duty of government to bail out and reward those who act irresponsibly, whether they are big banks or small borrowers” McCain said.

This comes on the heals of rising food and gas prices and a nation so in debt it cant even breath. Im sure it was all their fault though... guess only the strong (read as Corporate) will survive in America.

Long live privatization! Long live the straight talk express! Long live senile speeches about past wars! LONG LIVE THE IRAQ WAR!

Death Cab for Cutie-"I Will Possess your Heart"

New song from the upcoming album for purchase on Itunes and stream at
http://www.myspace.com/deathcabforcutie


Brooding. Great lyrics. Catchy. Different.
I need the new one soon.
They play Red Rocks My 28 w/ Rogue Wave

The Odd Couple- Gnarls makes a new one

Let me preface this review by saying that I think Danger Mouse can do no wrong. The man has been a genius on everything from Demon Days to the Grey Album. There is not much in the main stream industry that can compete with the full power and style of his beats.


That being said, this album will not be known for one song, as in St. Elsewhere. There is no overly catchy tune that dominates the album, no one song that will sore the charts. What there is instead is multi layered songs full of great beats and amazing vocalizations that take you back to a funky and fun time.


Gnarls's strength to me has always come from their great talent with the visual aspects and a solid approach to making songs. That is to say that every song on the album works and feels polished, there is little on the album that I am disappointed in and I think, that for a sophomore album, this is a tremendous work. I can not wait to see some of the videos they came up with and I hope to catch a show from them sometime soon.

She won two more....Explative...explative...explative

The caption reads, "I don't care if am killing my party and making silly demands ('Lets re-do Florida and Michigan'). I just think I am the best person for the job and I am willing to sacrifice this election to the Republicans to prove it! And either way its a moot point, you guys owe me this position..."


No joke, she needs to quit. This can only go badly for the party...
