My dying wish is for an owl/camel hybrid, which I call camowl.

The Ugly Ball.

Wondering just what the Hell you're looking at up there? Click here to find out. I'll tell you this -- it's got something to do with Bonkers candy, something to do with Madballs, something vaguely to do with robot watches, and nothing to do with the fact that I keep lighting cellophane wrappers on fire and mistaking them as "lukewarm" enough to touch, thus rendering much of my right arm bubbling and blistery. It's the Ugly Ball, and it's here.

I had the loose eyeball madball and that was all we could afford, however our dire straits did allow me the pleasure of shopping at a local bodega (think 99 cent store but owned by spanish people) where I picked up a strange knock off, it was like a madball but in baseball bat form. It was made of pretty resilient stuff for a two dollar toy and I’m sure my family has it somewhere, it was neon yellow plastic and was bugg eyed with worm fixtures. On another point does anyone remember if Mad balls had any restraunt tie-ins because I have a plastic cup in the shelf above the sink back home.

I like pants.

I never had Mad Balls or Bonkers.. I was into Amazin Fruit and chocolate. Lots and lots of rich black chocolate.

I like the robot clip. It made me squeal with joy. Fianlly. Porn on my computer.

That can be seen.

I’ve actually done some research on the current "blog" subject of pants. FACT: Both Hoover and James Earl Ray wore pants FACT:All appointed Nazis were ordered to wear pants (except for the youth guard) FACT: In the text THE ELDER PROTOCOLS OF ZION pants were mentioned as a means of dress FACT: KKK members believe pants to be more dignified FACT: Pants as we know them were invented by the second century alchemist Satana Pantoni FACT: Jesus most likely did not wear pants FACT: Boston bishops DO.
People I ask you to make your own judgement but the facts overwhelmingly support his highness except he seemed to get the gender wrong…..oh crap.

I like pants. I like girls who wear pants. It’s good to wear pants, because, otherwise, girls would have nothing for me to get into. Unless they were naked all the time, and that’s no good because one does want a bit of mystery.

Not to mention, no one wants to see their aunt Helga with no nether-clothes. Ew!

I’ve been painting all weekend so the fumes may be getting to me.

Otherwise: I remember having one packet of Bonkers and thinking that they were too disgusting for words. And I never ate any again. I liked Mad Balls though. They were good little useless consumerist tchotchkes.

I remember bonkers… greatest candy of the 80′s… but, didn’t they used to come one flavor to a pack? I seem to remember chocolate, grape, and strawberry, but where did this 3 flavors to a pack thing come from? Also, Matt, i purchased a movie this weekend that I think you would enjoy… it’s called "Monsturd". If anyone can find a copy of this movie, I would definitely reccomend it for at least a rent. It’s one of those movies that’s just so bad that it’s funny. I think it climbed into my top 25 of all time.
