Going bugfuck

2002-02-13 16:06:04+00 by Dan Lyke 6 comments

[Copulating Bugs] After titling yesterday's picture I've got the opening riff to AC/DC's Back in Black running through my head. Luckily this replaces "The Song That Never Ends" ("...it just goes on, and on, my friends..."), but either way it's gonna drive me absolutely... ahem... bugfuck. Sorry. These two were out in Valley of Fire, about an hour north of Las Vegas, Nevada. And yes, another toy on the list when I win tonight's $125 million lottery is a good long macro lens.

I wasn't sure where to put this (here or with your Olympics rant), but I thought you'd get a kick out these bits harvested off of MetaFilter about Danny Kass, one the three US snowboarders to medal at the games:

All you halfpipe haters might reconsider after reading this brilliant quote: Olympic victories are supposed to put athletes on Wheaties boxes, but maybe not this time. "I'm going to be on the Count Chocula box!", Danny Kass (U.S. Silver Medalist) yelled. "Count Chocula!!!!"

It helps if you know that Danny Kass is this little punk of a 19-year-old from Jersey. He's the only boarder I know that doesn't plan a routine for the Olympics, he just drops in and rips.

he also said in an interview last night that he was wearing headphones during his run, and had AC/DC's HELL'S BELLS playing in them.

Ya see, if more Olympic sports were like snowboarding, and if the US would let the top competitors into the country and (I'm not sure on the current status of this) keep the ski associations the hell out of the snowboarding politics, Winter Olympics would be cool again!

Nope. No winners for the big jackpot.
