In Communist Russia, Blog Reads You

Greetings comrades, remember the Iron Curtain? Of course we all do, but what was it really like on the other side? I don't know and this won't answer it, but it will let you know which rock bands were forbidden in the USSR in 1985. Only in Russia you say? Well hold on there bucko, there are some parallels with the PMRC's Filthy 15 from the same era. Land of the free indeed.
.
But maybe if the Russian government would have kept such strict controls on the media in their country we could have avoided this mess that is Russian Thug Life. It's good to see that thinking you're cooler and tougher than you are is something that transcends languages, nationalities & borders. I'm sure right now in a galaxy far far away some group of wanna be gangstas are flashing gang signs in a photo in front of the intergalactic equivalent of a Civic with shitty decals and spinner hubcaps for their latest photo shoot.
.
But times change, check out these then and now pics of St. Petersburg. And this here is supposed to be the world's craziest intersection from St. Petersburg. I don't know if it's the craziest one out there, but man that's one choppy crazy video of car crashes captured by a traffic cam at that intersection . . . and it's got Confusion Corner beat all to hell. Tell why is this so hard to navigate?
.
I don't know about you but I'm thinking the Russian government should lower Vodka prices because apparently this is what happens when Russians get bored.
.
Although here's something that's doubly near and dear to my heart. Check out these awesome pics of how an enterprising Russian modded a Camaro Mad Max style. The car looks to be a 2nd Generation Camaro, but the hood scoop is off a 4th Generation SS.
.
Got a scientist fetish combined with a thing for Eastern European beauties? Well you're in luck because here's Russia's Miss Atom, the beauty contest open to workers in Russia's nuclear industry.
.
It might not be recent news, but who wouldn't do just what these Russian fisherman did when they thought that the 200 pound strange looking squeaking beast the pulled out of the Sea of Azov that they thought was an alien - eat the damned thing. And to think I know people who won't eat a ling because they look too disgusting.
.
Well das vi danya comrades until the next time.

Bbrrrraaaaaiiiiiiiinnnnnnnsssssss

Well if the internets don't just keep getting better & better.
.
If you want proof, check out Zombies or Not which is an undead version of Hot or Not, Rate My Ride or Rate My Rack. And while we're talking Zombies how's about a nice article featured both on Cracked and Zombies or Not, how 7 iconic movie characters would do in a zombie attack. I thought it was worth the read, but I'm often thinking and planning how to get through a zombie invasion and/or World War Z.
.
If you're looking for help getting through WWZ yourself perhaps you can look to this novelty Zombie Survival Kit for some inspiration. Or maybe this one up for auction on eBay will help? My only piece of advice is remember, you never have to reload a blade. Thank you Zombie Survival Guide your practical advice and case histories may just save my bacon yet.
.
And here's some good news for the Zombie Movie Fan, it's reported that Peter Jackson, maker such fine pieces of classic cinema as the Lord of the Rings trilogy and Dead Alive (the custard scene will be with me forever), is to direct a Nazi zombie time travel movie. Now if that's not a movie with epic win written all over it I don't know what does.
.
He may not be a zombie (yet) but last week the wrestling world lost one of its greatest managers of all time, the one the only Captain Lou Albano. Paul Heyman has a decent good bye article to the Captain on his website here with some fond memories and a bit of insider information.
.
PS - I swear it wasn't me that did this. But I do think it's funny.
