Dead Weather at the Wiltern

I saw The Dead Weather last night at The Wiltern. It was an amazing show, but I wasn't sold on the group till Jack White picked up the guitar.

Of course, my view looked nothing like that. I knew I had cheap seats but it turned out I had bought the seat furthest from the stage. This video is closer to my view.

Nonetheless I went home happy.

Freedom Force - Ab-Man

Meet Ab-Man.

We don't know the Ab Man's name but we do know that he manually rearanged the muscles in his back to create a working jetpack. His abs of steel are bulletproof. In his own words, "What has two thumbs and is built like a tool shed? This guy." You see, he's like a tool shed because that's where all the hoes is at.

Freedom Force - Frans Rayner

Meet Frans Rayner.

Frans Rayner once shifted all of his pressure points into his butt. This made him effectively invulnerable... unless you punched him... in the butt.

Freedom Force - Death's Waiter

Meet Death's Waiter.

When you die you go to a restaurant with the worst service ever. You wait for centuries without ordering. The waiter will seat you now.

Freedom Force - Bee-Man

Meet Bee-Man.

When we first met Bee-Man we watched him get shot to death. No really it's in his first appearance. He hasn't even been resurected. It's not part of some mystical origin either. Since then we've seen flashbacks where he gets tied up by Maurice, the pompitous of love, and his gangsters of love. Can his sidekick dog, Buzz, save him?

Freedom Force - Mongo, The Chainsaw Ninja

Meet Mongo.

Mongo wields two chainsaws, often as nunchucks. This is impossibly scary. Have you considered the implications of this? Have you. Dr McNinja couldn't even beat this guy. He had to have him called off by Mongo's leader. Nobody beats the Chainsaw Ninja.

Freedom Force - Hortense

Meet Hortense.

Dr McNinja's ex-girlfriend Hortense secretly works for King Radical. Don't tell nobody. If Dr McNinja is like Batman (he wishes) then she would be his Catwoman. She operates on the other side of the law, but the emotions are still there. Weird squirmy emotions that ninja's aren't supposed to have.

Freedom Force – Martin

Meet Martin Birding and Marty Monster.

Martin Birding runs the Monster Mart chain of grocery stores. He grows into a big and purple ogre when he wants to. When he's angry or stressed out he can lose control. When Martin loses control he becomes the unstoppable Marty Monster. When he's transformed he gets dumber. So dumb that he'll sign just about any paper you put in front of him. That's a bad thing for a business man.

Santa Monica Pier part 3

I went with Froggy, his sister, and her friend to the Santa Monica Pier yesterday. Yes that makes it the third time I've been there. It's a favorite spot for me. This time we rode the Ferris Wheel! It was surprisingly cold at the top. Enjoy the pics. Video available soon.

Lost and Found

We went to Leo Carrillo again today. Lots of fun as always. While I was in the car on the way there I noticed that a bunch of pictures on my phone that I thought didn't save. You would have seen all these on the blog before so I thought I'd put them up now and let you figure them out.

Freedom Force – Mitzi McNinja

Meet Mitzi McNinja.

Mitzi will kill you. I'm not saying that she will kill you if she has to either. I'm saying that she will be the one to kill you. It may look like cancer or a rogue meteor but I assure you that it was really her. She married into the McNinja family and has taken her role as mother to it's extremes. Her expertise are pickled beets and precisely aimed demolitions. Both are deadly.

Gordito is a young boy who's father died in a circus accident. He wields his dead father's guns and grew a mustache from sheer will. He rides his own raptor named Yoshi. That makes him the coolest twelve year old ever.

Freedom Force – Dark Smoke Puncher

Meet Dark Smoke Puncher.

Sean McNinja chose the name 'Dark Smoke Puncher' as his ninja name. No seriously. He hides the fact that he is a total geek from his dad. His big brother, Dr McNinja, thinks that he is a toolbag. He wants to be a technomage.

Freedom Force – Dan McNinja

Meet Dan McNinja.

Dan McNinja is ashamed of you. It’s true. His son is a Doctor and he still isn’t good enough. Look at those eyes. Look at that mustache. Do you see the condemnation? That mustache has authority. The kind of authority that only a father who is also a ninja can wield.  He once set himself on fire, “because they can’t grab me if I’m on fire.”  Have you done that? I didn’t think so.

New Freedom Force – Part 7 – Ghoul

Meet Ghoul.

Ghoul is very hard to kill, since he is essentially already dead. Only the total disintegration of his body can permanently kill him. His limbs, if torn off, can be reattached or, in time, grow back. He does not feel pain and is immune to disease, poison, and radiation. Ghoul can communicate with the spirits of the deceased, even those who have been dead for tens of thousands of years. He can, in some cases, also sense a person's imminent death.

The California Science Center

I went to the California Science Center today. It's not as good as the Children's Museum in Indianapolis. Then again, nothing is. They had a great section on identity that had a kiosk that would transmogrify you into different genders and ethnicities. Check out my gallery to see what they did to me.

New Freedom Force – Part 6 – Prototype

Meet Prototype.

Jimmy Ruiz was hired by a company called Ultra-Tech as a corporate spokesman/mascot named Prototype. He had devices surgically implanted in his body that enabled him to cybernetically control a suit of powered armor which enabled him to fly, fire blasts of concussive energy, and which greatly amplified his strength. Ultra-Tech had discovered that Jimmy was an Ultra that could supply his own energy, reducing the size of the powered suit. As Prototype, Jimmy Ruiz became a member of Ultraforce, helping defeat Atalon.
