I’d never heard of AikiJujutsu before today. It’s awesome because it depends on the energy of the attacker, rather than the strength of the defender. A Veteran on one of the blogs I’ve been following recently (Blogmocracy, aka LGF2.0) said he likes it because it gives one the options of annoy, hurt, or harm, depending on the level of the attack. Hit the Gurgle/Utoobage buttons for more.
Speaking of the military, here’s Bill Murray at his peak. No way could anyone have pulled this off in real life, but it’s still classic. (After this scene, the rest of the movie sucked donkeys.)
This is very cool… except for the weeny beards that kinda negate the coolness. [Found here.]
I was about to post a video of Electric Flag, but this is even better: Buddy Miles with Buddy Guy in the U.K in 1969. Looks like they’re playing with Paul Butterfield’s band, prior to the blues revival in the U.S.
More Buddy Miles, this time with Jimi Hendrix, 1970. Beyond the valley of cool. (We’ve got a great photo of Buddy Miles coming up tomorrow. Stay tuned.)

Everything was very cool … apart from those beards.

plane– No, Stripes wasn’t a bad movie, but the 2nd half seemed to be alot of really dopey filler. Maybe I need to watch it again. Animal House was kinda the same way.
