Pepto’s #GotUCovered

AiXeLsyD13 — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 00:48:58 +0000

Heh. Sorry for the TMI. If this bothers you, be glad you didn’t see my delirious lack-of-sleep & fever-induced Facebook post yesterday.

When was your last Pepto moment? #GotUCovered—

@Pepto coated all the stuff in my stomach the other night, so when I eventually puked it was all bright pink.—

Pepto!

At any rate, don’t be fooled that Pepto-Bismol will stop you from puking. Apparently I caught some stomach virus that’s going around. I think now my wife unfortunately has it (after she so graciously cleaned up & nursed me back to health). I believe my grandma had it a week ago, and now we hear that Bethany’s uncle has it. It’s nasty & going all around. Wash your hands!

So, Pepto-Chili may not be a good idea… (aixelsyd13.wordpress.com)

Tres Delinquentes [Mazes]

AiXeLsyD13 — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 23:00:59 +0000

Not feeling well yesterday, so I ended up drawing a bunch of mazes. Like with the others, post a link to the solution in the comments, or email a photo or scan to me at world.and.lunar.domination@gmail.com.

Are you getting these? I have had a few people interested, and a bunch of people “liking” the posts, but no results so far. If you take the time to print & solve this, I’d appreciate if you left the solution (or a link to the solution) here in the comments, or you can email it to world.and.lunar.domination@gmail.com. Take a photo with your phone, or scan & send it.

So I said I’d start naming the mazes. I’ll call this one Sidewinder. I have no real reason for the name, other than I simply drew it “sideways” instead of longways on the paper. Like the other mazes, if you take the time to print & solve this, I’d appreciate if you left the solution (or a link to the solution) here in the comments, or you can email it to world.and.lunar.domination@gmail.com. I can work from a scan or a photo. If you want to snail-mail the solution to me to scan, you can do that too.

I’ve just slowed down, I haven’t stopped. Here’s yet another maze that I’ve been doodling for the past couple of days. You’ve seen all the other mazes, right? It seems like that’s all I was posting for a while. I should maybe start naming them. Any suggestions?

If you’re adventurous enough to print & complete this maze (or any of the others), I’d really appreciate a scan or a photo posted here in the comments (or a link to it), or emailed to me at world.and.lunar.domination@gmail.com.

My Food Allergy Responses Graph

AiXeLsyD13 — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 02:00:51 +0000

Inspired by the Food Allergy Fun graph of responses that Tiffany gets when she tells people her child has a food allergy, I made my own graph. These are the typical responses that I, as an adult, get when I tell people about my shellfish allergy & try to give a brief description of the dangers of cross-contamination.

This is what I hear all the time.

The Actual Best Rock Guitar-Dominated Intros of All Time According to the Ultimate Authority, Me.

AiXeLsyD13 — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 00:00:09 +0000

Well, I said I was gonna do it. I eventually got around to it. Here it is. I guess I should call this something other than “The Actual Best Rock Guitar-Dominated Intros of All Time (Not Chosen by Idiots)”. But as a mediocre semi-professional guitarist, I am an authority. Right?

“Master of Puppets” – Metallica ==::: This riff slaps you in the head. Thunk! That’s what it does. To your head. Maybe it’s not as shrill as “Seek and Destroy” or as renowned as “Enter Sandman”, but it’s a hell of a way to bring you into a song. There’s no easing, no build-up, just smack smack smack/blazing riffs and screaming about how drugs are bad!
Slash

“Welcome to the Jungle” – Guns N’ Roses ==::: This one owes as much to the delay effect as the riff, but wow it rocks. It opens up one of my favorite albums. I had to include it.
“Sweet Child O’ Mine” - Guns N’ Roses ==::: Legend goes that Slash hated this warm-up riff, and that he thought it sounded like circus music. It’s a good thing Slash had Axl & the rest of Guns N’ Roses to keep this on around. Who doesn’t love this playful riff?
“Paranoid” – Black Sabbath ==::: I play this riff 9 out of 10 times when I pick up a guitar. Why not? It’s fun. Iommi is a genius. It’s been covered by Megadeth, The Dickies, Avenged Sevenfold, Type O Negative, Green Day, Metallica, and bar bands everywhere.
Tony Iommi

“Sabbath Bloody Sabbath” – Black Sabbath ==::: I always feel like this one is underrated. Everyone talks about “Iron Man” and “Black Sabbath”, but this is a damn cool riff. Recognize. (“Supernaut”, another of my favorites, could go here too…)
“Sunshine of Your Love” - Cream ==::: It sounds like Clapton is playing an army of guitars here. I believe Jack Bruce came up wit the riff, inspired by Hendrix. It’s an incredibly powerful riff. (Even if you change it like Living Colour did.) It’s iconic. It’s rock. It’s blues. It’s heavy. It grabs you.
“Rock You Like a Hurricane” – Scorpions ==::: Here they are. Everyone my age remembers this riff. I was never a huge fan, I think I have a greatest hit’s CD, but this riff is still classic.
Stephen Egerton

“Long Distance” – All ==::: It’s my list. I’ll include killer punk bands if I want. If you don’t know this riff, you should. In fact, a bunch of All riffs could go here. Stephen Egerton has a sound where you know it’s him when he’s on guitar. He’s got a totally underrated incredible guitar voice.
“Crazy Train” – Ozzy Osbourne ==::: It’s in that commercial. It’s been played by marching bands. It’s been covered by Pat Boone. It’s in our collective consciousness. Randy Rhoads was a madman, and this is an incredible riff.
“London Dungeon” – Misfits ==::: This is a great gloomy riff, and one of the few things the Misfits churned out that wasn’t a power chord. I like the recording from the ill-fated 12 Hits From Hell album that never was. It’s got Bobby & Doyle on guitar, & producer Robbie Alter on guitar overdubs… I dunno who came up with the riff. It could have even been Glenn or Jerry.

I’m sure if I were to make a list tomorrow, it may contain different songs. What did I miss? Give a link to the YouTube video in the comments below.
