Michael Vick should have read this Cookbook

There he is, king of the hill, one of the most exciting and well paid dudes on the turf. Trained to crush the skulls of his fellow fellas, and he's excellent at it. So for evening entertainment he watches small critters crush each other... no real surprise there. What really offends though is all that meat gone to waste. A perusal of PuppyBeef.com might have saved hundreds of hungry people - think of all that meat going to waste, it's a crying shame. Bosintang is a national favorite in Korea, and I really think that as part of his ongoing, seemingly endless penance, he should be made to cook up a few batches. There's a great looking recipe here and of course wikipedia's reference of cultural canine cuisine is extensive. In the mean time enjoy your reinstatement into the NFL and of course only bash human skulls from now on.... although word on the street has it KittyBeef.com is the next big thing...

oh yeah, and in case no one else has told you, Michael.... you're black. that's right, you're black, and while white boys may cock fight... you are not white. you are going to be made an example of.... now sic em'

SOLUTIONS - TYVEK TOWER

The Landmark Hotel is creating lots of controversy in our fair City of Charlottesville. Opinion is weighted that in its present state the Hotel is a depressing eyesore. We at C-B.com have a different view. We love the look of the setting sun peeping through the steel girders at dusk and the appeal the building has as an industrial space like no other in the area. We say forget the luxury hotel with boutiques! Wouldn't it make a lot more sense as an industrial art complex using the mall accessible first-floor entry space as a gallery? One could envision the building as is with solar glass instead of walls, a system of smelting furnaces on every floor, centered in the building and a swimming pool on the roof.

This town is packed with insipid, uninspiring, slacker artists who dabble in finger-painting, trash art, and the like. We C'Villains are seldom exposed to monumental, industrial sculpture, metal casting or any other form of industrial art. What do we get? We get Councilman Satyendra Huja's Fart-In-Place. Nick Currie of the New York Times wrote in an article reviewing Ex-Alumix, a vast refurbished aluminum smelting factory in Bolzano, a city in the Italian Alps, "Who knew that abandoned work spaces could be so beautiful?" Manifattura Tabacchi, a decommissioned tobacco factory in Rovereto dating from 1854 now houses art and Industrial Art and Design was transformed from a burned-out store front on Minneapolis' northeast side. Buffalo's Grain Elevators: Wonders of Industrial Art are seen by many as distinguished works of industrial art. The old C&O coal tower would be a wonderful space if renovated. Unfortunately it's nothing more than a 'crack' tower for years and as a result, a double murderer once made it his home.

Creative thinking is in order or the Tyvek Tower is on the road to being a 'crack' hotel. Halsey Minor filed a breach of contract and fraud suit against Lee Danielson and Lee Danielson intends to counter-sue Halsey Minor. That could take years. In the meantime this little Dali-Domestica has a bird's-eye view from her rooftop garden of the setting sun peeping through the steel girders at dusk.

Overtime Over 72 - John McCain's Old

"Do you know any 72 year olds who work overtime?" No preface as to why given, the question sparked a great bit of humor on the jobsite as folks tried to remember 'ole so and so... We came up with one guy 74 years old who still works, although no overtime.... NB - he was on vacation at the time of the interviews...

Seriously. Old short guy. Versus mature fit guy. The presidency is a physical thing. The toll it takes on a body is extreme. George Bush went into the office with a resting heartbeat of 43 - that of a collegiate athlete. Now he looks old too... So here are the woodies, roofies, pipes, diggers, stoneys, sparkies and the rest giving their two cents on a basic, simple question.

F the downtown mall project

the short of it - go to http://www.mydowntownmall.com/contactus.htm and let them know their plan to spend 7.5 million on bricks and other b.s. is bogus.

CVille is gonna drop 7.5 million on downtown mall repairs... $200,000 a year would maintain it nicely - equivalent to 38 years...

Last time I went to a city hall meeting it was "well, we'd certainly like to put that $500 crosswalk in at Buford elementary school, to prevent kids from risking traffic accidents.... except we don't have the money right now. You understand, we can't spend the money if we don't have it..."

On the other hand maybe they're full of it...

Tell them to shut up and do as little as possible - they don't do too much well...

Remember the 10 million dollar visitor center - 6 million spent in planning....
3rd Street - one year to brick one block...
the $400,000 "free" speech wall...
Court Square - 2 years to renovate 2 blocks... over budget and FUBAR.
And now they're gonna repave and renovate the entire downtown mall in 5 months.

These jokers have already spent close to $1,000,000 planning this. Just picking themselves and having endless meetings and bagels and probably no less than a few gallons of coffee per person. $1,000,000 bucks. That is a lot of crosswalks for a lot of kids. That's one $1,000 laptop for 1,000 kids. That's money these fools have already spent - put the boo in boondoggle ....

Thank you, Lionel Estavoyer, you sucka

It's been almost four months since this site got an update. Knowing life and schedules it could have as easily been four years. Well here's to quality over quantity, and so to our wonderful readers we now may share the dirt, courtesy Lionel Estavoyer, who had the audacity to call the author of this site a coward in a short email sent June 3rd 2008

il suffit simplement d'un peu de courage pour inscrire un nom. Ca n'est pas plus compliqué. Et pour ma part, vous donner le mien ne me pose auun problème. Bonne journée. L.Estavoyer

And really, honestly my first thought was to write back some decent nominally clever response explaining why normal, rational, capable Internet literate humans often use aliases rather that their real names. And then Guns 'n Roses came on the radio. And that changes things.

ALOHA M. Estavoyer,

On the one hand I might read your catty email and reply politely in French to explain why placing one's name and other personal information on the Internet is not the best plan. I might cleverly devise some way to call you a full-blown (no pun intended) fool so quietly only a few, perhaps not even you, might hear it.

On the other hand, listen up sucker, you've been had. Chances are she sucked you off and now you're wondering what that itchy rash is and when it's going away. Could be herpes; it often flares up in the summer time and when emotions get hot, so try to stay cool and calm. I recommend you go to your local dealer and score something strong, you may need it. Swallow a double dose, have a beer, and Man Up.

All that aside next time you're in town let's meet up. Granted I won't be taking you to the C$O on my dollar (http://avenue.org/afc/BookFestival2005.html), perhaps Durty Nelly's though (http://durtynellyscville.com). And I promise not to kick your bitchy little ass.

ALOHA,
Anson D. Parker

So it's like that. Get in the ring.

sultan of slushee's wins election

the sultan of slushees has won the city council election. c'est la vie

Sarkozy is a genius, Obama is a slum bum.

Sarkozy, we in Charlottesville love you! Lesley Stahl got personal, and you got outta there - c'est finit! Sante! It's obvious Stahl was trying to get in your pants, her thin charade about your wife was clearly a ploy to discuss your behavior below the belt... what a slut! Anyhow, 60 minutes is a terrible show and only dummkopf's watch it. Your ratings are certain to rise up on both sides of the pond. Trust me, real American's don't ask about wives, girlfriends, or mistresses unless absolutely necessary - how declasse! Encore, Encore!

Obama - you showed up in C-ville with your white stretch limo and little blinking lights on the side. Big pimpin in the south, huh? Your welcome reception came from a punk "you bring an apology for that Virginia Tech trash talk?"
of course not. Your posse looked around sheepishly and you acted like nothing was said. Your ego could fill most rooms, and probably got a nice stroking at the amphitheater... if economic violence and physical violence are the same thing... well I got a $1 and it's like Axl Rose said "Get in the ring mfr"
