Neighborhood Defense League Cleveland

It’s all over the news, the web and the radio. The Neighborhood Defense League has made a name for themselves.  Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Personally, I think this is a good thing. It’s a way to deter crime. Even if those signs that they posted around West 117 and Detroit deter one violent crime, this group has done their job without even having to resort to violence to stop a crime. I give these men and women a lot of credit that they have the nuggets to organize and take back the streets of Cleveland.

I haven’t seen the crime in Cleveland this bad in years. From innocent people getting shot on their porch playing cards, a senseless beating on new years eve, to a man getting shot while pumping gas, the crime is ridiculous and pathetic.

One can complain about crime all they want, but it takes action to curb it. This is exactly what the Neighborhood Defense League is doing and I’m glad that people are finally getting sick of all the crime going on in the city.

Heck, just last week I had my car broken into. The idiot who broke into it tried to steal it by peeling the steering column. Too bad this thug didn’t realize that the ignition was on the dashboard.

I want the Neighborhood Defense League on my street, but I’ll never know if they are on my block since they are underground fighting crime in this Gotham city.

Cleveland Neighborhood Defense League

Found a flyer and website for the Neighborhood Defense League. The Neighborhood Defense League flyers were found on Detroit Ave in Cleveland. It looks like a vigilante gang is about to start rounding up thugs on the streets. Good for them.

It looks as if they just put up a web site. I can’t wait to see what they post in the future. Crime is high in Cleveland and I hope they use all the tools they can to round up the criminals.

I hope these people do well for Cleveland. The police need all the help they can.

Watch out criminals, thugs and druggies! The Neighborhood Defense League is watching, kicking ass, and taking names.

The Sopranos - Cleveland Style

Hey, it’s the daily bragger and I love the Sopranos. I hated to see the series end. I was a fan from the very beginning and was hoping that the show would continue. That’s old news. The show ended a long time ago.

However, with my creative mind, I did a little remake of the Soprano’s opening sequence. It’s the Sopranos Cleveland Style. My little parody on the Sopranos show. Hope you all like it. Enjoy!

msplinks - How do you get your link to work on myspace?

myspace-msplinks msplinks - How do you get your link to work on myspace?What is msplinks and how do I get around them?

Msplinks is a bunch of code to mess up your links on myspace. Go ahead and put a link on your myspace page and unless it is an approved site (photobucket or youtube) your visitors are going to get a big warning about spam and viruses.

I found a way to get around this. I’m going to give you free and easy advice. I’m not going to write an ebook about this or charge anyone for this information because I really don’t like myspace. I don’t like how they manipulate links so that they don’t count as inbound links when it comes to SEO.

What I did to get around the whole msplinks mirage was to add the application “RSS Reader.” The links on this application are direct and they don’t scare the visitors to death with a big warning page. If you are familiar with RSS you’ll know what I’m talking about. Look at my myspace page www.myspace.com/dailybragger and you’ll see I have the Reader App. If you click on these links in the reader they work great and there is no big warning to your potential visitors.

If you found this information useful ,digg it or leave me a comment.

I hope all of you that have read this found this very useful.

Thanks.

On a lighter note

If you are looking for the car video it’s right below this post.

I think that I’m really living my life through the eyes of my wonder son. He loves skateboarding On a lighter note and so do I. Maybe one day he’ll become filthy rich and have an unlimited amount of money doing what he loves to do. Maybe one day he can become a famous person from Cleveland. On a lighter note He’s quite a skateboarder now and he’s only five. However he likes to act a fool on the skateboard. I think he does this on purpose so that all the girls at the skate park “ohhh and ahhhh” over him.
While we were at the skate park on Monday, my son was lying on the skateboard and moving himself across the cement with his hands as if he were on a surfboard. Then some kid comes out of nowhere and jumps over my son and successfully lands a trick. Thank goodness. In this video you can hear the nervous laughter  On a lighter note between my wife and me.
Enjoy the video. You might have to watch it over and over because it’s quick.

Don’t worry about this stuff below. I’m just testing out some code below.

Video - Attempted Car Theft Gone Wrong (Hello Bus)

Thief breaks car window.

Welcome to Cleveland, Ohio. Yeah, I live in this amazing city. I guess there is more good than bad here, but when the bad hits…it smacks you in the face like brick covered in smelly cabbage shit. This morning when I was getting ready to take my five-year-old to day camp, my son noticed that the passenger side window of the car was broken. Then after I did a double-take, I noticed that the steering column was busted, the ignition was torn to shreds and the car looked like a New Orleans Wal-Mart after a hurricane.

The person who did this is extremely that lucky I didn’t see this happening in progress or I would have hit this person with a stun-gun and then duct-taped them to a tree naked with a sign on them that read something awful. I probably would have filmed the world’s greatest bondage movie of all time. Well, not really, but when you’re angry, you’re angry.

The economy is bad enough. Bullshit like this makes it worse, especially for all of us.

I guess I’ll be taking the bus again for a while.

Thanks.

Michelob Ultra Lime Cactus Beer Review

Ahhhhhhhhh. Michelob Ultra Cactus Lime is a refreshing beer. There is just enough lime to tickle your taste buds and leave you feeling refreshed. I don’t feel so guilty drinking this beer because it’s lo carb. Drink up and feel guilt free. This beer is great for keeping the carbs in check. You may even get some excersice drinking this beer in a club because you’ll be dancing like a fool after about 8 of these!





I really don’t like shaving. But I do it anyway.

This is my gripe video. I really don’t like to shave. It’s time consuming and clogs the drain. The ladies got it easy.

Johnson Smith - The ads from the comic books

the-dailybraggerglasses-300x117 Johnson Smith - The ads from the comic books Do you remember the advertisements at the back of a comic book? If you’re in your 30’s or older, you’ll remember the ad of that creepy guy holding his hand out in front of him while wearing some bizarre glasses. Those were the x-ray specs. One day, I had my mom order a catalog for me. Then when it came in the mail, I would daydream all day long about the products in the catalog. Today, the catalog has 1000’s of products you will not believe exist.
ThingsYouNeverKnewExisted.com
Those ads were from the Johnson Smith Company. In 1905 Alfred Johnson Smith, started selling his novelties and practical jokes in Australia. The company was officially founded in the U.S.A. in 1914, when Mr. Smith shipped his first package from Chicago.
Australia to Chicago was to be the first of several moves…
The Johnson Smith Company relocated to Racine, Wisconsin in 1926. Nine years later the company made a mid-depression move to Detroit, Michigan with the intention of starting a Canadian subsidiary across the Detroit River. Those plans were abandoned with the outbreak of World War II. The company remained near the Detroit riverfront for nearly 35 years, until it moved to Mt. Clemens, Michigan (a Detroit suburb) in the early 1970s.
In 1986 the company made an exciting move to Bradenton, Florida, to a specially-designed building that enables us to serve our customers with state-of-the-art technology and service!
This story is not without sociological aspects and influences. During the 1920s and 1930s, practical jokes and home hobbies provided an escape for people wracked with economic struggle brought on by WWI and the Great Depression. Their 700-page catalog provided hours of “escape,” fun and fantasy for the depressed nation, even without having to place an order! Even today Johnson Smith hears from people who remember the catalog and the “relief” it provided! Today, the Johnson Smith catalog is known as Things You Never Knew Existed…And other items you can’t POSSIBLY live without! Johnson Smith - The ads from the comic books and still brings hours of enjoyment to people across the country.

Video - So I tried skateboarding

Okay, so I tried to skateboard. I’m 35 with a few extra lbs. My son is almost 6 and loves skateboarding. I attempted to skate and I did pretty good. But after I fell I decided on a new way to skate.

Here is the video of my attempt.
