The demoman now has my approval. How can you say no to those glowing eyes that glowing eye?

Avenge me! (My favorite shot by far)

Ok, that shot was pretty cool.

Should have looked behind you instead of shooting me.

What’s that in the distance?

That cold war era radiation does wonders for Heavy’s ego.

What’s the use of being 300 feet tall if you can’t dance.

How about witnessing the same man now mentally handicapped running amok along the city sidewalk? Well, boy are you lucky that you’re my friend and visit my blog-o-blag! I recorded these videos with my character (who I’ve lovingly named Hector Ricky-Bob Santiago Camaro) during some Skate 2 play and recently rediscovered them on the Skate.Reel site.

Feel free to watch the rest that I’ve uploaded here.

Also Crank 2 came out the past weekend as did the CD for the Original Soundtrack done entirely by Mike Patton. I’m happy to say that the music is exactly as Patton as one would expect and is a fantastic work of art. It sounds the most similar to Fantomas with a bit of Mr. Bungle. It works extremely well on it’s own as well and I highly recommend heading over to Amazon or iTunes or your music distributor of choice and giving it a listen. The entire 32 track album is great, my favorite at the moment are the main theme, “Chelios”, “The Hammer Drops” and the fantastic polka “El Huron.”
