VACATION!
Hey gang,
We're taking this week off to work on our next failed television project:
We're currently in a fierce battle with the network to determine how many mature vagina closeups we are allowed to show on Saturday mornings. (The network is demanding at least five per episode.) Anyway, we'll be back in a week. See you turkeys later!

DESTROY ALL MOVIES LESSON 1: OVERVIEW (OR, VICTIMS OF A TOUGH SOCIETY)
From the sound of it, Zack Carlson & Bryan Connolly's 'Destroy All Movies: The Complete Guide To Punks On Film' sounds like an impossible (and insane) project to conquer. Chronicling every appearance of a punk or new waver in virtually any movie ever? Interviews that go as deep as a conversation with Kirk Thatcher, writer of the punk song 'I Hate You' from the bus scene in Star Trek IV? Over six years of research and 600 pages total?! And what's this? You want me to help make sense of if all in a seventeen-minute culture jam? You're on! Honestly, Zack is the most lovable cook you will ever meet (he still has a real ball-pit in his house!) and did an amazing job helping me get the footage for this together. And if you live in LA you can meet the guy in person for Cinefamily's TWO DAY FILM FEST MELTDOWN. Class of 1984 (w/ Mark Lester in person!) Times Square, D.O.A; The Day My Kid Turned Punk!, and so, so much more. Your pal Ghouly Skooly will be there, and I say let's sleep on the couches like a bunch of crusties and spit on the staff all weekend long. I'm going to assume they'd be into that for effect.

2.5 MINUTE REVENGE OF THE RED BARON
Mickey Rooney is kinda like the Dolph Lundgren of the 1940's.
AND!
The wonderful folks at Wham City are doing a comedy tour and it is coming to Chicago this Sunday, November 14th at 9 PM! And motherfucking EIT! is opening for them! Seriously, this is going to be a night that you will feel with all of your being. Either come to The Hideout (354 W Wabansia St) or miss out on the comedic weirdness of David Bowie, Showbeast, Dan Deacon, Egg Schrader (an actual egg), April Camlin, Tim Allen, the Creepers, and so much more. Buy lots of tickets now! Don't forget to bring those fourth and fifth eyes of yers. Yul need 'em. And if you don't live in Chicago, go to one of these other places and see this show (sadly, EIT! will only be at the Chicago show). Booya!

DEMON ALERT!
Just because Halloween is over doesn't mean we can relax, people. We must be ever vigilant or the demons will possess our livestock and steal our social security money.
UPDATE: now with sound!
From the ever-inspirational Wiser family series.

DEFENESTRATION NOW
This is it. My namesake and my legacy. I hope you like the sights and sounds of breaking glass as much as I do.
A special thanks to Mr. Deelite at The Immaculate Consumption for his invaluable assistance. Also thanks to fifty cent rentals and a lengthy period of unemployment without which this wouldn't have been possible.
UPDATE: I probably should have mentioned this is just the abridged version so it's not a complete history of film defenestration. The full version is over thirty minutes. Seriously.
