Tom and Nick Maniwa talk indy wrestling [12 Nov 2009|11:45am] nickmaniwak5 http://www.themvzone.com/videos/sb4/Tom&NickManiwaTalkSideshowWrestling&IPWSuperJuniorTournament.mp3 Tom & Blank is back once again, as this time I sat down with the most nifty fellow in the entire world, one of my best friends, and the best independent wrestling sound engineer in history, Nick Maniwa! He took an indy wrestling voyage throughout central Indiana this past weekend which led him to Sideshow Wrestling in Nashville, IN and the Insanity Pro Best of the Super Juniors Tournament in Indianapolis (a show that included B-Boy, Ricochet, Flip Kendrick, Billy Roc, & Chuck Taylor, amongst others), so we talked about it. The discussion topics included crazy ladies in podunk towns who go to wrestling shows, modern mixed big person/midget tag matches, whether circus-themed wrestling could work as a niche ironic product in bigger cities, Super Chicken Tickets, show pacing issues, the importance of decent video production quality when trying to sell DVD's, B-Boy's hugs, and Dick Towel. Everyone else is, after all. 90+ minutes of friendliness and cleanliness! post comment

24 Hours of Twitter... [11 Nov 2009|11:56pm] kingdomjames 09:29 is now watching the final table episodes of the World Series of Poker. IVEY IVEY IVEY!!! # 10:35 watching WSOP final table. Ivey eliminated by Moon. Damn. Now rooting for Darvin Moon to take this thing. # 10:40 beglieter gone a the hands of Darvin Moon! Hurray! Fuck that Wall Street bastard! #wsop # 10:47 WHAT IS MOON DOING? He just doubled up Joe Cada AA vs. K9. #wsop # 10:50 Saout knocks out Schulman. Down to four-handed at the Final Table. #wsop # 10:55 Saout crushes Buchman to earn half the chips in play. Almost 90 million in front of the Frenchman. # 10:59 Buchman with A5 is all in vs. Moon with KJ diamonds. 49 million chips at stake. Moon hits a K on the turn. Buchman goes out in 4th place. # 11:03 Shortstacked Joe Cada goes all in with pocket 2s and Saout calls with QQ. Duece in the window to give Cada the set. Cada takes chip lead. # 11:06 Cada vs Saout again. Cada's AK vs Saout's 88, with Saout going all-in. RIVER KING and Cada knocks out Saout. #wsop # 11:13 Moon takes 23.5 million chips in the first hand of heads up with QQ vs 99 # 11:15 Moon pairs his Queen on the turn to take a 30 million chip pot and retake the chip lead. Cada is rattled. #wsop # 11:18 Cada improves to two pair on the turn and Moon folds. Cada retakes the chip lead in a good recovery. #wsop # 11:20 Moon's AJ vs Cada's AQ. Moon makes a monster re-raise to scare Cada off the hand. #wsop # 11:21 J9 vs J9. Now to watch the betting strategy in action. #wsop # 11:22 Moon's $15 million bet scares Cada off what would have been a split pot. #wsop. # 11:26 Cada makes a pair of 9s and Moon makes the mistake of going all-in with an up and down straight draw. Cada takes the huge chip lead. #wsop # 11:29 Moon gets antsy and calls all-in with suited QJ vs Cada's pocket 9s. Moon can't hit and Joe Cada is the youngest WSOP champion ever. #wsop # 11:32 Gretzky got traded? # 11:33 @WPTSEUSS - Paul, I ABSOLUTELY avoided your tweets just so I could get up this morning and watch this and enjoy it without knowing. # 11:39 Sorry to bore y'all with days-old #wsop results but thought I'd try and enjoy my morning before life holds me down and ass-rapes me. Again. # 11:44 It's time for a shower and a nice 4km walk to the Silver Snail for this week's comics. Then I'll come home and try to be normal for a while. # 11:46 Though I must tell you, I am seriously considering giving full, stark-raving madness as a life option for 2010. Normal just ain't working. # 11:54 @djb192688 - The bigger insult is that as Life fucks you it leans in close and whispers "I own you" in your ear. Life taunts as it rapes. # 12:53 @WDMnetwork - Thank you as always, bro. You help make my life a little easier four days a week. # 12:54 @WPTSEUSS - yeah Moon just went nutty at the final table. He wasn't the same guy who played 8 days in the summer. Close but no bracelet. # 19:26 Imagine that this tweet is me screaming the word "FUCK" as long and as loud as you've ever heard before in your life. That's how I feel. # 20:06 @djb192688 - I don't drink anymore or else I would've been into the Bushmills before work yesterday. # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter post comment

24 Hours of Twitter... [29 Oct 2009|11:56pm] kingdomjames 15:58 watching last night's South Park. Is there really a "Whale Wars" show on American TV? # 16:10 @RonnieWK - I went on YouTube and watched a segment from an episode of WW. It hurts my feelings to now know that THAT show actually exists. # 16:16 @officialsjk - and the captain is Canadian. We set him adrift for being a douche and he came up with the show while at sea. # Automatically shipped by LoudTwitter post comment
