I like the song “Rush” by Tom Sawyer

VH1 is at it again. This time they are polling for 100 greatest Hard Rock Songs. To be honest, it is so lame because VH1 thinks that The White Stripes is any good at all. Are you kidding? What’s next? Jack White is better than Eddie Van Halen; wait a minute, The Rolling Stone Magazine said so.

Asides from that, VH1 wants the world to know that there is this one band called “Tom Sawyer” and their song titled “Rush” in the poll.

One would think that VH1 has some people watching out for any typos. What’s next? “Megadeth” by Peace Sells and “Metallica” by Enter Sandman.

I’ll Give You 110-Percent!

I was listening to Leo Laporte’s The Tech Guy Show and looking at the show notes.

It says:

“Google looses search ground in June.
Google’s share of the web search market is down to 61%. What is that other 49% using?”

Let’s see. 61% + 49% = 110%

I get it, it’s just like Bender who is made of 30% iron, 40% dolomite, 40% titanium and 40% zinc, with a 0.04% nickel impurity.

OK, it’s a typo on Leo’s Show Notes. It might get fixed by now.

  • saw “Sex and The City” movie and TV series

To mitigate this, go watch the DVD again, or if you don’t have it, buy one now meatbag!

Dear Admirer,

Thank you for taking the time to write to me, Bender.  Although I deleted your email without looking at it, I’m sure it was very boring.  Write again soon!

Your robot pal,

Bender

P.S. – If you buy less than eight copies my DVD, you’re a cheapskate.

Aloha, Friend!

Bender Bending Rodriguez here, better known as the Robot King. Did you know that the Hawaiian word “Aloha” can mean both “hello” and “goodbye”? However, in the following usage, it only means goodbye. Aloha, jerk!

Yours truly,

Bender

P.S. – Please buy my DVD. And once again, aloha. Jerk.
