Fans Askign For 1964 Johnny Cash Album To Finally Be Released

In 1964, Johnny Cash recorded an album entitled “Bitter Tears”. The album was never released, but it was written as a protest album over the American mistreatment of Native Americans.

Back in 1964 the album was released, but got little to no air time. Cash even went as far as taking out a full page ad in Billboard lashing out at his label as well as DJs. He asked them “where are your guts?”.

Ultimately the album fell into obscurity, but some supporters want the album to receive a proper release today. The album itself is actually available on iTunes as well as Amazon so it isn’t like it isn’t out there, but some claim that even die hard Cash fans have likely never heard it.

Leading the campaign is Antonino D’Ambrosio, author of the book “A Heartbeat and a Guitar: Johnny Cash and the Making of Bitter Tears” (Nation Books, 2009). D’Ambrosio, who wrote about the intersections of music and politics in his book “Let Fury Have the Hour: The Punk Rock Politics of Joe Strummer,” discovered “Bitter Tears” while digging around the Bowling Green State University Sound Recordings Archives. He describes himself as a passionate Cash fan, but this was the first time he’d heard the album.

“It would have been very easy for Johnny Cash to make a civil rights record at that time,” he says. “He didn’t. He chose to focus on the very real struggle of another group, and the album is relevant to this day.” Wonder if he knew: does extenze work?

D’Ambrosio says he’s not the only Cash fan in the dark: “I’ve met Johnny Cash buffs who have never heard of this album. While it is technically available, it’s pretty buried.” He says that he has reached out to executives at Sony, which owns Columbia Records, but hasn’t heard back. An e-mail to Sony Legacy seeking a response wasn’t returned by press time.

“People don’t talk about the struggles of the Native populations,” Carter Cash says. “Their issues get swept under the rug, and my dad tried to do something about it. No other major artist has ever made a full album about Native rights.”

Pamela Anderson Might Be on Next Dancing With the Stars

Is Pam Anderson the most popular celebrity we have ever seen in their own personal pornos? She is at least the most popular “built for sex” celeb in her own home made pronos that’s for sure. Of course why watch celebs when there are millions of women who actually are in pornos made for men? :D

Anyways, what was I talking about? Oh yeah pornos…oh wait no I wasn’t. Oh yes…ahem…Pam Anderson is reportedly going to appear on the next season of Dancing w/ the Stars as a contestant. She is the celebrity in case you were wondering ;) . I think she might need to click here to learn more about quick trim because recent pics I have seen of my lady show a lot of cellulite :( . She is no stranger to TEH SERGARAY tho.

Shutter Island Reviews Are Pretty Erratic

I have seen the traditional “Worst movie ever” ones, and then the ones where the person thinks they are some sort of great author with tons of big words. Almost all of the bad reviews I have seen though tend to have comments that the reviewer is completely clueless.

I really don’t know a lto about what this movie is about. All I do know is that Leo DiCaprio is awesome and that is enough for me to go see it. I get the feeling that the movie has some parts you need to pay attention to though, which generally accounts for mixed reviews. You know how a lot of movie goers are rather stupid. If they don’t basically hold your hand and walk you through it step by step people consider it bad. Then you get the standard “you just don’t get it” line going on. I have seen this so many times I can’t even count it on movie discussions. May as well be talkign about face moisturizers because at least that is useful.

So…basically from the reviews I have read it sounds like the DUMB people are giving it bad movies, while most legit reviewers seem to either love it, or at least consider it worth our time. This makes me pretty confident I am in for a good show :) .

Lil’ Wayne Underwent 8 Root Canals?

You have to either be very afraid of dentists, or be so damn high that you can’t even see to have a need for EIGHT ROOT CANALS at once. How do you possibly wait long enough to need 8 root canals? LOL

According to TMZ, the Tuesday dental surgery provided the MC with a whopping eight root canals. The procedure lasted eight hours and also included several redone tooth implants, additional implants and work on his grill and remaining teeth. Unreal.

Wonder if he can get some more time from jail to take care of his adult acne treatments next.

Way to ruin Tiger’s day of public apology whore.

Veronica Siwik-Daniels, known as Joslyn James in her porn films, said at a news conference she feels Tiger owes her an apology for the unwanted attention the scandal has brought her. HAHAHA…YOU ARE A WHORE. ALL YOU WANT IS ATTENTION.

“I would be open to a telephone apology from Tiger, but I really feel that I deserve to look at him in person — face to face, at his eyes — because I didn’t deserve this,” a tearful Siwik-Daniels said.

She said that she fell in love with him *cough* his money*cough* and his hydroxycut body.

TMZ posted a video of HER press conference. It is insanely funny. LMAO @ this. I mean come the **** on Tiger! Apologize to her and say that you are sorry she couldn’;t be a PORN STAR anymore because you were jealous.

Sarah Palin Upset Over Family Guy Down Syndrome Jokes

Family Guy this week poked a little fun at Sarah Palin. Add them to the list of people that do (ie. most everyone). IF you haven’t seen the Family Guy episode (I don’t blame you as I’m tired of the show too actually), Chris goes on a date with a girl who has Down Syndrome. While he is getting ready for his big date the talking baby of the show, Stewie does a performance of “Down Syndrome Girl.”

Then on the date when Chris asks about her family she replies her father is an accountant and her mother is the former governor of Alaska. An obvious dig at Sarah Palin’s family.

Palin of course is going to respond to this. On Palin’s Facebook page, she says the show “felt like another kick in the gut.” Much deeper than maybe you find on Facebook most days like diets that work.

Her daughter Bristol, also responded with “insults directed at our youngest brother hurt too much for us to remain silent. People with special needs face challenges many of us will never confront. . . . Their lives are difficult enough as it is, so why would anyone want to make their lives more difficult by mocking them?”

The oddest thing is that Family Guy is a Fox show, and Sarah Palin has just started working for Fox News. Obviously they would talk about it on air.

Nobody can possibly fault Palin for being upset in my opinion, but of course you have to watch her to see if she is going to make a fool of herself over it anyways.

On the O’Reilly Show he asked Palin why she’s calling for Rahm Emanuel to step down for Emanuel’s use of the word “retard,” while she continues to defend Rush Limbaugh, who has used a variation of the word at least 40 times.

Palin: “As I have explained, he was using satire — using the R word so he could bring to light what it was that Rahm Emmanuel was calling other people . . . “

Simon Cowell Says His Replacement Should Be Good Looking

While I wouldn’t watch American Idol if you paid me, I am well aware of the awesomeness that is Simon Cowell. Rumors say that this will be Cowell’s final season as the reason American Idol is still on the air. Basically, this means the show is going to fail miserably after he leaves because no matter how stupid this show is, Cowell is always fresh when it comes to insults..

Cowell appears to actually care who replaces him though. This person should be handsome according to Cowell:

“You have to be good looking. Secondly, you have to know what you’re talking about. I’m starting to realize with these shows that you have to put people on that actually know what they’re talking about. Rather than guessing, they really have to have experience, so that you cannot just criticize — you can offer constructive advice as well.”

I suppose he knows as well as anyone. Obviously some of the hosts they have had on are quite terrible from what I have read. The most common thing I see is that they have no clue, and I’m sure Cowell supports that.

Tiger Woods Speaks

Tiger Woods finally came out with his first public appearance since being ostracized by the media and the golf world for cheating on his wife. During this time people even tried to theorize that he was on performance enhancing drugs because he is so cut…lol

The whole situation for a celebrity is ridiculous of course. A rich guy and popular that can bang a lot of chicks isn’t actually news is it? They probably ALL probably do it. Why is Tiger so different? I mean he married a NANNY for god’s sake.

Anyways, Tiger spoke for about 20 minutes and apologized at least 20 times for being a man. He didn’t, however tell us when he was going to return to golf and destroy everyone. Hopefully this comes before he is on some sort social security disability because golf is worthless without him.

Anyone Watch Chuck?

I had never watched this show up until about a month ago when I had finished my marathon watch of the first 5 season of Lost. It left me with nothing to watch while I ate dinner, which is the only time I even watch TV.

So…I needed to find a new show to watch. Chuck was surprisingly fun. I railed off the first couple seasons and then caught up to the show about Episode 4 of Season 3 this year.

I wasn’t real impressed with the start of Season 3. Chuck just seemed like he went into JD from Scrubs mode and started acting really weird to me. IF you ever watched the new version of Scrubs called “Med School” you probably know what I mean. Man that show is awful.

Now the last episode Monday, Chuck really looked different than the whiner and the little wuss. He turned his back on a new friend by doing what a cold hearted spy would do. His first “asset”, which is what Chuck was called by his handlers Casey the bad ass, and Sarah his dream girl.

Sarah has always been fond of Chuck because of his innocence, and never wanted him to be a real spy. She was clearly upset by him doing what he did.

BUT

After watching the first few episodes this season and seeing how lame he was following Sarah around like a puppy dog that just peed on her custom slipcovers, I liked the change. I have been waiting for him to become more of a real spy. It is going to be a fine line though. What made Chuck so great was his humor. Even if he was a bit of a wuss, it played well most of the time except the start of this season.

Looks like dark times a head for our friend Chuck :( . His best friend Morgan and his sister Elle are onto him and his secretive ways. They plan to investigate him so we should get some good laughs out of that at least…lol
