Joe Elliot why?????
Category: nhl
So the Sabres home Opener is tonight and that is only one of many things going on this weekend that I don't think I'll be doing. So I go onto Yahoo and see that Joe Elliot Put the Stanley Cup upside down, the funny thing is it stood fine, maybe if this will be something that works out lucky and becomes a new tradition but I doubt it.
I will admit I'm a fan of Def Leppard so I'm a little bit upset. But my question is why have him there if he doesn't know what way the cup goes because that means he isn't a hockey fan or at least not enough of one to have seen The Cup before. Or maybe it was just a case of not knowing how heavy it really was and just wanting to put it down. If you don't care about the pictures and links here is the story but you won't be able to watch the video either from the box.

No one gave Def Leppard the Stanley Cup instruction manual?

By Greg Wyshynski

The Detroit Red Wings may be feeling a twinge of embarrassment after their 3-2 home-opening loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Thursday night, in which the Stanley Cup champions passed the puck like a remedial-level pee-wee team.

That is, until Def Leppard's Joe Elliott redefined the concept of embarrassment during one of their NHL Face-Off Rocks segments at the Fox Theater in Detroit. This is what you get for booking a band from England: Drive on the wrong side of the road, place the holiest of holy hockey grails on a pedestal upside down.

Epic, epic fail. Even Draper's kid had the good sense to poop in the thing right-side up.

This was the proverbial slow-motion car crash; like on "The Price is Right," when a contestant is about to put the $199 price tag on the tube of toothpaste and the crowd simultaneously shrieks "NO! NO!"

You saw him turn the Stanley Cup the wrong way, and you just wanted to reach through the television and flip it back before he put it down. If only someone on stage had helped him. Why couldn't the drummer have lent a ... bit of moral support?

Aw, shucks, we all make mistakes. We can't stay disappointed in a band that gave the world the arena rock magnificence of "Hysteria." Heck, the scene above wasn't even the most disturbing thing we saw on Versus tonight. This was:

NO! NO! This was the first time we had seen Brian Engblom this season, and the rumors were true: He cut and/or tamed the mullet! Say it ain't so, Swedish Muppet! This is like when your stoner friend gets a job at the bank and starts wearing short-sleeved dress shirts. Engblom chopping the mop is a harbinger of the death of hockey hair; thank god Nordy decided to keep business in the front and a party in the back.

(Partial Nudity) Halloween Costume
Category: holiday
Yes if you look at the pictures below in one or two of them you may see a little bit of skin but not much and nothing that really telly you how I'm built. My 1st Idea for a Costume was to go as a nudest. Of course I would have had a straw hat, Cop/Hill billy sun glasses and my hair slicked back. But there where a few problems with my Idea. I first tried to take pictures with an artvoice and that was way to small and wasn't even close to working so I took pictures with the paper to see how things looked and it came out ok. But here is the reason why a scraped the idea.

1. Holding a paper all party long would get tiring quick
2. Big Houses are chilly and I hate being cold
3. Girls dressing slutty is hot, I think with guys it comes off as creepy
4. I think there might be some new people coming to the party and that might freak them out with not knowing me
5. Not sure If I meet someone if the first way to meet them is good if it is naked
6. Going to get a drink would get interesting quickly
7. If I wanted to go the green room or anyplace else I would need to take my chair and TV tray with me
8. Don't want to carry a TV tray and Chair to a party
9. As Much fun as it would be to sit around naked and have all kinds of pictures taken of me and posted on here, I would rather get that why from to much to drink, HA
10. There also a part of me that thinks it just doesn't feel right for some reason

Don't worry you won't see much in these pictures they are not the ones with the artvoice (those are by special request and a $9.99 service fee, ha). [if any one does want to see those just ask and I'll send you one or post one] If I thought I could do some slutty costume with out being crepy I would, but I'm guessing on Saturday it is off to Party City. Like if I was built wide and with muscle mass I could be an E-stripper and just where a thong and paint a big E on my chest but that won't happen. I am open to suggestions from anyone if they think of anything cool.

See they weren't too bad.
metalpeter - 10/09/08 20:29
I guess I should say that you should be glad I didn't put up here the 1st test picture I took, that would be much more then risque, think art voice vs the paper .
theecarey - 10/09/08 20:23
This was a pleasant surprise. I like this publicly risque side of you, Peter. You look comfortable and confident.

although I think I blushed at first.
ladycroft - 10/09/08 08:24
holy cannoli batman!
metalpeter - 10/08/08 18:29
Thanks. Even if some of the reason why I won't be using that as my costume were not in effect, I don't know if I could really do that [I think I could maybe]. In ones room it isn't so tough, but girls/ladies are brutal (they are worse then us guys I think). I think that is one of the reasons why there are so many ladies who do porn and have cams on line and stuff. There is them in a room by the selves or someone filming and then it is put on the internet and there is that kinda distance, it isn't like they are thinking well my Teacher might see this. On a side note I used to get this catalog (not sure how) called Absolute Male it had all kinds of cool clothes and leather pants. I never ordered anything, I could tell that the clothes were made for the body builder/ pro athlete / model/ wide shoulder guys. I didn't think they would look right on me. So no nudest this year now to decide what to go as maybe a Vampire of some kind. I wish there was some way to dress slutty with out being creppy but I don't know that there is for a guy.
jason - 10/08/08 18:18
Hahaha! You kill me, Peter. I give you credit man, that takes some serious brass stones. *drum roll*

(e:Paul), I think the medical term for the old nudist boobs is "National Geographic Boobs" but someone in the industry is going to have to back me up on that.
metalpeter - 10/08/08 18:10
(e:fing) I think that what you said about the fantasy is true at least some. For some women dressing up slutty is a way to let that side out of them and use the holiday as an excuse. Maybe they want to really where some out fit made out of leather and that ties up but they don't know how to do that in there real life. Often there are two sides to people. Me for example I'm a little bit of an exhibinest but there is a side of me that is shy also. In terms of the flasher maybe it was really his stuff some guys might really be that big (I didn't see it so I could tell how big it was and compare it to porn). I don't think there is anything wrong with having a costume be part of some fantasy as long as it isn't one you really do, because then it really isn't dressing up.

(e:tinypliny) If I where to go as a nudest (not going to) it would be changing in a costume. The costume would be the hat and sunglasses and the paper covering me for those who dodn't want to see my junk that would be the costume. But it would also be a costume because (or at least to my knowledge, but it would have been possible and still is possible) no one on (e:strip) has seen me naked so it would be a form that they haven't seen me in.
tinypliny - 10/07/08 22:57
"change into that costume"

That would technically be an incorrect statement in this case. :)
metalpeter - 10/07/08 22:53
It is almost bed time for me so I will ad this quickly. One of the other problems with the nudest Idea is that I'm young and thin. Granted I have never been to a really nudest colony but the little bit of footage I have seen are people are older and heavy and not the model type. If I could do some fat suit and some fake penis and ball type thing then maybe the costume would work.

(e:imk2) Yes sometimes I am a little crazy but really being crazy would be to change into that costume at a crowded party and sit in the foyer.

(e:Paul) thanks I didn't know there was such a thing as perky nuts (they may look better in the picture then in real life not sure really)

(e:Jason) and (e:Joshua) that is all me. In terms of the warning I think it is only fair. I think that even if not nudity if someone is talking about something and there will be pictures there should be a warning. Say I'm eating dinner and you are talking about some surgery you had I don't all of a sudden want to see pictures from that, or say someone is talking about Self Suckin and that John Valby song and the joke in clerks about the guy who broke his neck that is one thing but then all of a sudden some dude is trying to blow himself, that is a lot different than just talking about the man from Nantucket (over even crazier a lady boy trying it).

So now I have to decide what else to go as. There are other costumes that wouldn't work, like the manager of Dethklok.
fing - 10/07/08 22:40
I was at a Halloween Party one year where an older man was dressed up as a flasher. He had a trench coat and some fake junk that was way to big to be human. I got the feeling though that it was more of a fantasy of his then a Halloween costume.
imk2 - 10/07/08 22:35
holy bejesus. you is craaazay!
paul - 10/07/08 22:23
nice nuts. Far to perky to have belong to a seasoned nudist. Old nudists, serious ones, seem to always have nuts that hang down to their knees. The older the nudest, the closer they hang to your knees, LOL. Just check out any nudist camp full of old men and you would see what I mean. It's the man equivalent of the saggy old lady nudist breasts which ate equally as droopy.
jason - 10/07/08 21:19
I hope those testicles are part of the newspaper prop.
joshua - 10/07/08 21:16
Thanks for the warning!

HateTheFeetLoveThePenisTattoes
Category: body art
So La Ink's new season starts Tonight and that has part of my thoughts on body issues and body art. There will not be any penis or feet pictures but here are some I found on line from LA Ink and few other body modifaction pictures. I myself do like tattoos and think they are nice. For some people it is a way to deal with something. For some it is pretty art and for some it is a way to alter how they look along with piercings or other modifications. .

In terms of people who change how they look, I think it is more of an enhancement not that I don't like how I look type of thing.

Beautiful lyrics

[Spoken]
Don't look at me

Every day is so wonderful
And suddenly, it's hard to breathe
Now and then, I get insecure
From all the fame, I'm so ashamed

I am beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring me down
I am beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring me down
So don't you bring me down today

To all your friends, you're delirious
So consumed in all your doom
Trying hard to fill the emptiness
The piece is gone and the puzzle undone
That's the way it is

You are beautiful no matter what they say
Words can't bring you down
You are beautiful in every single way
Yes, words can't bring you down
Don't you bring me down today...

No matter what we do
(no matter what we do)
No matter what they say
(no matter what they say)
When the sun is shining through
Then the clouds won't stay

And everywhere we go
(everywhere we go)
The sun won't always shine
(sun won't always shine)
But tomorrow will find a way
All the other times

We are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words won't bring us down
We are beautiful no matter what they say
Yes, words can't bring us down
Don't you bring me down today

Don't you bring me down today
Don't you bring me down today



Yes I admit that I for some reason have all ways liked that song, maybe it is the words or that she can sign not sure, but her hottness and her being hot and signing about that can't hurt either.

I do think that both guys and girls do have body image issues. I think it is natural who doesn't want to Look Like Christian Bale or Jessica Alba. I think often it is thought of just a girls issue but it isn't really. Everyone I think has stuff they aren't happy with. I won't say that everyone wants to change things about their body, but I think most if they could would. Even if you did that doesn't mean it would make things better. Some girls with small boobs want them bigger so they will get more attention and some girls with a nice large rack say that guys only notice that and that is all they care about, both have valid points.

Now on to me. I walk a lot and stand on my feet a lot, and I used to walk a lot more. Because of this my feet take a beating. My feet are nasty. Hey I'm not a foot guy but some people have really pretty feet and toes but not me stay away. I could be totaly naked in a group orgy and my socks are staying on.

As much as I love porn (I really need to go buy some new ones to). I do think that there is some harm in it for guys. Just like Hollywood images and models can be bad for girls. I'm not saying people shouldn't try to look like the pretty people. But we need to remember that the beauty is part of what got them there. This is true in porn. Now I haven't gone out and measured guys in porn and not in porn to see if this is true, but most guys in porn and large dicks and some you think "how can that chick take that it doesn't even fit all the way in, och " . One has to remember that those guys are in porn for a reason and it won't get to you, well unless you are bigger then those guys and then you are a lucky mother fucker. So you have to remember these guys aren't trying to get the girl you are trying to pick up someplace and your penis is fine. I think that is where the self love comes in. See I'm no porn star but I love my penis I really do. I know that sounds crazy but I love how it looks and it doesn't really matter if anyone else loves how it looks, but it sure does help if someone else likes it. I'm not sure where this love comes from but it seems new. Yes in porn I love seeing some girl suck off some huge guy but that isn't really the same. Maybe it is more an aprication and an exceptance of what I have and that I love how it looks. I admit it is kinda odd, but it is the truth. But it isn't all about being about me, see if it was I would love how my feet look, so I'm saying it is a visual thing, but not sure.

I think that everyone should learn to love there own bodies and if there is something they don't like change what they don't like. But it needs to be for the right reasons like they don't like how they look and not because someone else doesn't like how they look. I know that there are things about me I would change if I could, that doesn't mean I'm not happy with who I am most of the time.
1. Good feet
2. Package longer and thicker
3. Tattooes not sure of what maybe dragons or a few really cool pictures I've thought off
4. Skin that is a little darker so that I don't burn in like an hour
5. Little bit taller and a little bit wider and thicker boned

Since I lost my train of thought I guess that is it.
metalpeter - 10/10/08 18:03
It isn't her but Skully was so hot or since there was a recent movie I guess still is would be the right way of saying that. I should not that the girl with the fetish hair I think might be from an artist who might be Local named Jenifer Link and her art is for sale on line the site might be Jennifer-link.com but not positive. On a side note my lame ass couldn't stay awake for LA INK.
tinypliny - 10/09/08 21:45
Is that Gillian Anderson in the last picture (2nd from the right)?
metalpeter - 10/09/08 20:36
The tough part about liking what one has is the balance between this is what I have and can change and what I can't. For example some people are over weight and that is how they are made and they will always be that way and then some people can eat healthy and can slim down. It can be hard to say that I'm happy where I'm at but here is where I want to be. There are lots of things that can't change and I will admit sometimes after watching a porn, I don't feel good about my self (I feel small isn't the right wording either). It isn't that what I have is bad it is just that as people we compare our selves to others. Just like the pretty girl who isn't as pretty as all of her friends so she think of her self as not pretty, she doesn't compare herself to all the people she is pretier then. Not sure if that was clear or not.
theecarey - 10/09/08 20:26
appreciating what we've got can be hard- the pendulum on that swings back and forth for me. You are right on that we need a greater ability to have self love.

Elite XC Controversy
Category: sports
So last Saturday I watched EliteXC it is one of the Brands of Mixed Martial Arts, it was on CBS and is sometimes on showtime, not sure of what kind of deal they have. Ken Shamrock was supposed to fight Kimbo Slice but Ken got a cut and when he was interviewed on the show you could tell how down he was and that he thought he should be able to fight. So two people who weren't planning to fight did. I guess after the event there was some controversy about something that was said to one of the fighters and this article is about that.




Petruzelli in center of Elite XC storm

By Dan Wetzel, Yahoo! Sports Oct 7, 5:55 pm EDT


Seth Petruzelli, after going from nobody to national celebrity for punching out Kimbo Slice, went on the radio Monday. He delivered a shot potentially more powerful than anything he threw Saturday.

He said his original plan against Kimbo was to get him to the ground and exploit his weak wrestling skills and submission defense. It made more sense than trading punches with a street brawler who outweighed him by 30 pounds. Petruzelli said he changed his mind though.

"The promoters kind of hinted to me, and they gave me the money to stand and trade with him," he told "The Monsters in Orlando" radio show. "They didn't want me to take him down, let's just put it that way. It was worth my while to try to stand up and punch with him."

The quote spoke of an attempt to if not rig the fight, then make it favorable for Slice, the main star and cash cow of the EliteXC promotion.

Such an action would be a disaster for mixed martial arts as it attempts to convince mainstream audiences it isn't scripted pro wrestling or a farcical Toughman contest. If EliteXC gave Petruzelli money to fight one way, it would open itself to all sorts of investigations.

The allegation rocketed around the country, making bigger post-fight news than pictures of Petruzelli in drag (more on that later. Needless to say, it's been a wild couple of days for him).

EliteXC's Jared Shaw immediately denied the fixing charge to Yahoo! Sports and fellow executive Jeremy Lappen did the same to Sherdog.com.

Tuesday, Petruzelli said he got the story confused.

"What that meant was they offer a knockout bonus, submission bonuses, fight of the night bonuses," Petruzelli said in a phone interview. "I think it just got misconstrued. I wanted to have an exciting fight and I wanted the knock out bonus so I wanted to keep it standing."

So did they say anything about keeping the fight off the ground?

"They just said, 'we want to see an exciting fight no matter what happens.' I took it as I wanted the knockout bonus."


That explanation won't appease some conspiracy theorists, if only because the original statement sounds more believable.

Then there is the general distrust of the organization, where the cards often seem more show than sport. Although the last two televised cards were mostly strong, memories remain of exploding cauliflower ears, silly introductions and using the popular but unproven Slice as a headliner.

Besides, it's no secret Elite XC had a vested interest in Kimbo winning. Jared Shaw even charged the cage and screamed at the referee that Slice had been hit illegally. Shaw has since apologized for that reaction.

"He spent a lot of money to build up Kimbo," Petruzelli said. "If I saw one of my guys I spent millions on getting his face pounded I'd get upset also."

Then there's CBS, which gave up any pretense of journalism in favor of unseemly propaganda.

The network previously embarrassed itself by comparing Kimbo to great sports figures such as Tiger Woods. This time, Gus Johnson's declaration that Petruzelli's triumph was "the most incredible victory in the history of mixed martial arts" was laughably ridiculous.

The worst was Johnson repeating the party line that Slice didn't hesitate to switch opponents from an injured Ken Shamrock. That was simply a lie. Slice demanded a cash bonus on top of his $500,000 payout just to get in the cage with Petruzelli, according to Lappen.

"We made it up to him," Lappen said.

For a stretch, the replacement wasn't going to be Petruzelli but Frank Shamrock, Ken's brother. Frank said Saturday he was even cleared by the Florida commission to fight. Lappen said he didn't think that was true, although he did admit there were discussions with Frank.

CBS was certainly privy to that information since Frank was at the arena as its color commentator. It was never mentioned on the air though. Frank told Yahoo! Sports Saturday it was CBS officials who blocked him from taking on Slice.

When the broadcasts have no objectivity, perspective or news value and the promoters are openly rooting for one fighter and not the other, how can anyone believe anything these guys say or do?

For his part, Petruzelli said he wishes he hadn't made the original comment. He swears no one from EliteXC has called him and pressured a retraction.

The entire thing has put a damper on his sudden surge of fame. That and the pictures on the internet of him in drag, of course.

"Man, people aren't going to let those down, are they?" he said. "Everything in costumes was (for) Halloween. I always dress in crazy stuff. All the leather and that sort of stuff, it's all done in fun.

"I want to put that to rest right now. I'm officially 100 percent not gay," he said. "I've been happily married for two years and been with her for five years."

He laughed at the entire speculation. He laughed at a lot of things Tuesday. And who can blame him? Last week he was a part-time fighter who was competing on the non-televised undercard for a four-figure payout. His main job was owner of a Smoothie King stand.

Now he's an overnight celebrity after 4.59 million people watched him TKO Kimbo.

He just wishes he could do it again. He's begging for a rematch and the big payout it would bring.

"But I don't think he was receptive to that," Petruzelli said. "Kimbo doesn't want the rematch. He wants no part of that."

He said that dropping Slice with a single short right despite leaning back on one foot was no fluke and he can do it again.

While Kimbo had a reputation for taking punches from his YouTube videos - he often let guys take free shots that didn't faze him - Petruzelli said there's a big difference between a professional fighter and those dudes.

"The thing is, they are arm-punching," Petruzelli said. "It's like little flicks with their arms. There's no weight behind it, there's no turning of the hips. It's how you throw it and where you throw it.

"If we fight again, the same thing will happen."

EliteXC should make it happen. Only this time demand its executives stay seated and its broadcast partner at least attempt professionalism.

Everyone could use the dose of credibility.



I'm not sure if this is now a cover up, or if someone just misuderstood, but it is interesting to think about.

SNL and Tina Fey
Category: tv
I'm not sure why I like Tina Fey, Yeah she is hot but that isn't the only reason. She was so good on weekend update. That part of the show has all ways been good, no mater who was on the show. I think that and her being part of it are a factor. If I read this site correctly starting this Thursday at 9:30 PM for 3 weeks in a row thy will have live weekend update, I think it could be pretty interesting. I wonder if they will use anything form the Debate on Tuesday of if they will save that for Saturday.

A link to how Tina Fey is good for SNL
You might want to check it out there are other things you can click on in the story but here is the story if you just care about that


Politics and Palin lure viewers to "SNL"
By Paul J. Gough Mon Oct 6, 6:30 AM PDT

The politics-fueled ratings train of "Saturday Night Live" keeps rolling along this election season with Tina Fey's impersonations of Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin luring viewers.

"SNL" averaged a 7.4 household rating/18 share in the metered market overnights, Nielsen Media Research said on Sunday afternoon. That's within a tenth of a rating point of its September 13 premiere, which itself was the highest-rated show since December 14, 2002, when Al Gore and Phish appeared.

"SNL" is up 49 percent in the metered markets compared with the first four weeks of last season, as well as up 42 percent this past Saturday compared to episode No. 4 last season.

As expected, Saturday's show was heavy on the politics, spoofing the recent debate between Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and Democrat Joe Biden.

For the third time this season, Tina Fey portrayed Palin. Cast member Jason Sudeikis was Biden, and surprise guest Queen Latifah sat in as moderator Gwen Ifill.

Once again, Fey showed that she has cornered the market on Palin impersonations, and her insistence that the GOP ticket would be all "mavericky" gained wide traction on the Web where it could be seen in numerous video postings.

Another funny moment that seemed to strike a chord with audiences was Fey (as Palin) thanking "third graders of Gladys Wood Elementary, who were so helpful to me in my debate prep."

While the rest of the late-night shows have struggled to find their footing following the 2007/2008 writers strike, "SNL" has been on a roll ever since it took on Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and others at the end of last season.

The show's success with political satire only got bigger and better in September, when "SNL" opened early with a special appearance by Fey as Palin.

"Clearly, 'Saturday Night Live' and Tina Fey's spot-on creation of Sarah Palin is now a part of this election season," said ABC News political director David Chalian. "It does show a frame through which a lot of people see these candidates."

Ifill, who drew controversy before the debate with reports she was writing a book about the rise of African American politicians including Barack Obama, did not escape the satire.

Twice Latifah mentioned the book and the publication date, once Inauguration Day and the other Election Day, and said that it was available for preorder.

Also on the firing line were Biden and Scranton, Pa., the beleaguered northeastern Pennslyvania city that has been invoked by Biden (who grew up there).

"They did equal-opportunity bashing," said CNN political analyst Gloria Borger, noting that it wasn't just Palin who was the target of humor on "SNL."

I just wanted to add that who winds up winning the Election could have a Big Effect on someone's comedy future. For those people who can do impressions well they should really work on being very good at someone or everyone. I know Tina Fey isn't a cast member of SNL anymore but I think it is awesome that she does Palin so well. When McCain Wins (I do think he is going to win for multiple reasons like 1. Hillary fans are loyal to her and some of them will follow sarah or now that she is out don't care any more so dems lose votes 2. Lots of whites who say they don't care about race are liers and won't vote for barrack. 3. Most votes doesn't count it is who gets the most points) , I have felt this ever since it was him only and Barrack and Hillary where still fighting for the nomination; then at least maybe Tina Fey will be on SNL every so often playing Palin. I hope I'm wrong but that is just the fealing I get. In any event it is nice to see SNL get a little bit of a surge here. I wish Tina would come back and Just to weekend update she and Amy played so well off of each other.

This is the Truman show.
tinypliny - 10/07/08 21:42
Honestly, regardless of what effect the rotten duo might have on satire, this country is in for some really horrible times, if they win. From the science, health, education and foreign policy point of view, I see that as being an absolute nadir for the US and her citizens' credibility as the land of the people who encourage scientific and strategic thought. It would a be a picture perfect mud icing on the fact that a lying conniving insular greedy idiot has been allowed to sit on the throne for not one but TWO consecutive terms and people have submitted to his various money-draining policies without any resistance.
