Stolen from www.understand-a-bull.com...

The Pit Bull is probably the most misunderstood dog in the United States. People see them and cross the street out of fear and try to ban them from their cities. Why? Simply stated, lack of education on the breeds. The public only sees negative stories in the news. Pit Bulls are wonderful dogs in the hands of responsible owners just like any other breed. As with any dog, there will always be irresponsible owners and poorly bred dogs. That does NOT mean that all of these dogs are evil! The majority of domestic violence in the US is caused by men, are all men considered evil and dangerous, No. Then why would all Pit Bulls be dangerous because of a few bad owners?

For hundreds of years Pit Bulls were bred to fight dogs, certain traits were bred into the bloodlines for that purpose, high pain tolerance, high prey drive, etc. However a quality that was never bred into Pit Bulls was human aggression. Human "aggressive" dogs were undesirable as these dogs required extensive handling prior to and during their fights AND most of these dogs were also family pets so no human aggression was ever tolerated. Dogs that exhibited human aggression were typically killed, meaning that only human friendly lines were perpetuated and desired.

It has been said that a Pit Bull never met a stranger. They love and adore humans. They want so much to be apart of your family and spend time with you watching tv, walking, driving, etc. I have seen severely abused and neglected Pit Bulls who see you coming and they can't wait to be petted and loved. Even after the abuse, they want nothing more than to be with a family of their own! As with any breed there are exceptions to the normal temperament and behavior. We see this in humans as well, there are good ones and bad ones.

This Hits my Heart...

I seen the Hate Factory boys posted something about the BSL in Denver and Aurora. This is a real touchy subject with me. Wanna get me fired up talk bad about Pit Bulls or the US Military. I am a proud owner of two wonderful pits. It is sad to see Ignorant fucking politicians kill off a whole breed of dogs in a city based just on the way they look.I wonder if there is a Politician in Denver with the last name HITLER. I put a photo of my two dogs with my niece. When are people gonna get it, the killer is on the other end of the leash. FUCK DENVER POLITICIANS! I have some guns that need to be shot, I dare you yuppie scum to try and take mine.


Proof that Guns Prevent Crime...

Messing with the wrong dude on his way to work Dumbass protesters. Sorry it's in Portuguese.

Pure Awesomness...

So I got a print of this movie a while back at a show. Have yet to see it but it looks Freaking Cool.

2 more days...

Timebomb Tuesday...

Soundgarden...

In 4 weeks Soundgarden will release their first album since 1997. A band that to me was much more than average grunge of its peers at the time. Kim Thayil didn't just bang on pawn shop guitars like so many from the era and he was even named one of the Top 100 guitarists of all time by Rolling Stone a few years back.

This picture was in the February 1995 issue of Guitar World magazine. I remember seeing this image and thinking it was so cool. I was so entrenched in playing bass, skating and doing drugs at the time that music like The Melvins and Soundgarden made perfect sense. The funny part now is that I'm not in a band anymore, I don't skate anymore and I put the drugs aside 10 years ago, but I still listen to The Melvins and Soundgarden.

Corrosion of Conformity...

This song got my day started this morning. Some people will argue that the original CoC was better, but I dig the shit out of the Southern rock version led up by Peppar Keenan.

Matching colors...

Often times less is more when it comes to paint. The matching frame rear springer legs and body work on this Shovel are a good example of how you don't have to have 100 colors, fish scales, lace and rainbows. For another example look at Chopper Dave's Super Freak.

Warren Johnson...

So here is some video of Warren testing at Route 66 Dragway. The old man as my Pops used to call him.
So I got my stuff back from Kendall Johnson today. Stoked as hell. Now my heads are getting done. I am updating my cam chest to a late model style. I am going with a 585 252 bob woods cam. Compression releases in the heads due to the close to 11 to 1 by the time I am done CCing the heads. I think Warren Johnson's machinist might be doing my heads. Warren is a Pro Stock legend. I will be finding that out in a couple days. I also got these awesome slim risers from Low Brow today the things look tough as nails. Can't wait till this is all over with. Ready to ride my motorcycle being down in the summer sucks balls.
