Beatallica and Mama Z retires

The Beatles and Metallica fornicated and mutant children of rock were born…they were raised in the Netherlands and they call themselves ‘Beatallica’…please enjoy their song, “Everybody’s Got A Ticket To Ride Except For Me And My Lightning”.                 . . .On a completely different note, if you happen to [...]

Tax lesson from Dr. MZ

I found that song that’s been bouncing around my head like a pogo stick with ADHD. It’s one of Go Home Productions’ older mashups. Click here to hear the whole thing or a snippet in ‘Now Playing’.
Today is the deadline for your U.S. Federal and State taxes, my people. How the hell did the [...]

Story of survival; with Raman

Here’s an unbelievable Shackleton-esque story about a little girl, a car accident and Raman noodles.
I can’t get enough of this f’ing song and it irritates me that this is the only version I have cuz these f’ing Brits talk over and down to it in fear of a lawsuit. But it mashes two pop songs [...]

I’m in Delaware

Ricky Gervais of BBC’s ‘The Office’ was on Fresh Air on NPR yesterday — great interview…he’s like a 15 year old kid living inside a middle-aged Briton. I randomly caught it on the way back from a shoot in Delaware — You can check out all 22 hilarious minutes here… (not the easiest to obtain, [...]

Another cause of road rage

I saw this plate in traffic this weekend — I wanted to ram my car into it…if she was the President or owner of the network, that’s one thing, but if you’re a fan of a particular cable network, your license plate is not where you advertise it.. that’s a cause for road rage. Instead, [...]

Mad propz to Air Supply

Last night brought Super Karaoke Finals at Champps in Fair Oaks. (The spelling irritates me but it is indeed “Champps”.) Unfortunately I wasn’t allowed to enter the contest, because it was only open to the winners in March, so the guests at “Champps” had to make do without “Hootie” for an evening. The first poor [...]

Seinfeld webisode & Carrot Top lives

These are kinda funny: Jerry Seinfeld starring in a Jerry + Superman ‘webisode’…watch ‘Uniform’ when you get to the main screen…you’ll need about 5-7 mins of ‘you’ time to watch.
In the little bit of ‘me’ time from jobby-job I had yesterday evening, I finally setup my TiVo last night in my new pad–sans phone line [...]

Tapas & we’re going streaking

Mad props to Mr. Ryan Shea owner/operator of Muppethouse Enterprises, Inc., hoster of martyz.com, who last week made a completely seamless transition of all martyz.com info to a much more powerful computer now based in Dallas, Texas. Yeehaw!
I thought the March winds were supposed to be “in like a lion and out like a lamb…” [...]

MZ off to C’ville

So I’m living in Centreville, Virginia now and I gotta say that I’m psyched to have so many amenities close to me (Drycleaners, used bookstore,grocery, Baskin Robbins, etc.) but all of these amenities sit erratically in a massive, haphazard maze of 8-12 strip malls with a 5 mph speed limit combined with speed bumps and [...]
