Joe(y)'s Definition-O-The-Day
Jill-Off - The female version of jack off; unassisted autoerotic stimulation. Most of the time, this substitutes any need for bitches or hoes which they could have taken back to their crib to bang up the ass. The guys at the gym had such hot bodies, that she got so worked up and had to jill off to relieve her tension.
2008 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Nominees
Billboard has released the nominees for the 2008 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction. They are: Of these 9 only 5 will be chosen for induction and YOU KNOW Madonna better be the first!

Crafts For Any Time Of The Month
WOW!!! This is like one of the most ingenious craft sites we have ever seen. We've been browsing through and checking out the awesomeness that is Tampon Crafts. We especially love the seasonally appropriate Halloween Crafts. Check out the Tampon Ghost & Bat (pictured below). They also show you how to make: and more.....
Simply amazing!
Friday Retrospective : Tears For Fears
We are so happy its Friday, its been a terribly busy week. Today's retrospective is Tears For Fears...why? Because "Everybody Wants To Rule The World". If you dont know Tears For Fears we suggest you invest some time and acquaint yourself. From Wikipedia:"Tears for Fears are a popular English pop band formed in the early 1980s by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, which emerged after the dissolution of their first band, the mod-influenced Graduate. They were initially associated with New Wave and the burgeoning wave of synthesiser bands of the early 1980s, but quickly branched out into mainstream chart success. Tears for Fears have sold more than 21 million albums worldwide (including over 8 million in the USA alone)."

GIRAFFE FIGHT!!!
We are posting this video for 2 reasons. 1. Its cool.
2. We want to know what the people behind the camera are planning on cooking with giraffe meat after one dies.
The Office - TONIGHT
Our favorite show, "The Office", premiers tonight at 9PM with a 1 hour episode. In anticipation, we present to you The Best Scenes of All Time..... Enjoy and be sure to watch "The Office" tonight.
A 6-Pack of Wine
It was bound to happen. The people over at IronWine have broken through to the other side. They've made the ultimate device for "portable" wine. WINE IN A CAN! Though it is not available in the US, yet, we are eagerly anticipating an ArtWalk where we can be sophisticated enough to walk around downtown with a brown bag and a can of wine!
ComplimentBot 4000
Are you having a bad day? Do you need reassurance and affirmation? Then click over to ComplimentBot 4000 for a dose of good ol' flattery and praise. We felt so warm and fuzzy inside when we got this adulation.....
Of course, we hear this all the time.
Joe(y)'s Definition-O-The-Day
Jukin' - Participating individually, or with a group, in the more active aspects of urban nightlife. Term encompasses both dancing and non-dancing participation, sexualized and non-sexualized. It suggests, but does not imply, the use of drugs or alcohol. Most of the time, this gets them many bitches and hoes which they then take back to their crib to bang up the ass. "Hey stunna, we goin jukin' tonite? I need to retox."
Separated At Birth
Unfortunately, the one picture we were able to get of the waitress/Amy Winehouse clone at Harpoon Louie's was pretty crappy, but you get the gist.
Staff Meeting Review and Pics
We had a FANTASTIC staff meeting last night at Harpoon Louie's (4070 Herschel St.) and have a plethora of new ideas for the fall. Stay tuned for that. The beers, the burgers, the fish sandwiches, the jalapeno bottle caps, and onion rings were all wonderful. Our waiter Jacob was the bomb (thank god we didn't get Amy Winehouse's retarded twin - more later). Anyway, looks like we will be heading back to Harpoon's way more often. OH!!! A side note....you can also get chili on ANYTHING you want, even a chili caesar salad (YUM)!

Bionic Woman - Series Premier
Don't forget to set your DVR's for tonights premier of the new Bionic Woman on NBC at 9PM. We've already had the pleasure of watching and have to say its pretty good. In honor of Jamie Sommers check out the opening credits from the original Bionic Woman.
Joe(y)'s Definition-O-The-Day
Procrasturbate - "I was supposed to proof and edit a 260 page report then send it to the printer by 5pm, but I procrasturbated instead."1.) To waste time (procrastinate) by pleasuring oneself (masturbate), putting off other work that one should be doing by masturbating.
2.) To screw oneself (figuratively) by not doing work when one should be.
Most of the time, this subsides the urge to get many bitches and hoes to take back to their crib and bang up the ass.
A Bucket O' French & Saunders
We told you guys a few weeks back in THIS BLOG that Dawn French & Jennifer Saunders of Absolutely Fabulous and French & Saunders fame had a new show coming out. Well, "A Bucket O' French & Saunders" is now showing on the BBC and we have a clip from the premier episode. Check it out...

Joe(y)'s Definition-O-The-Day
Emorexia - The latest craze, where emo kids are super skinny...mostly from just not eating anything. they seem to feel the need to be skinny so that they can wear girl pants, that are so tight their package is almost non-existant. Most of the time, this gets them many bitches and hoes which they then take back to their crib and are too sad to bang up the ass. Did you see that boy over there? I think he has emorexia.
No More Peanut Butter Jelly Time
A St. Johns County school has decided to ban peanut butter from its campus due to a students allergy and some parents are angry about the decision, as are we. Click Here to read the story from News4Jax. All we have to say is.....
Panhandle Patti Sighting
JC staff member Mark spotted Shaky (AKA Panhandle Patti) at one of her most frequented intersections, Forest and Park Street, and she was up to usual tricks. The begging aside, we are wondering.....what fabulous shirt is she wearing today? Is she wearing her vintage Max Headroom/Power 95 T or her brand new Rooms To Go T that she got from Erica? Let us know your prediction and maybe we'll have another submission today with the correct answer.
Reminiscing
Fritos Supports Our Troops
We haven't checked out ebay in a while, so check out this gem. Its titled "Fritos Chips Shaped Like Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon" and the auction ends on September 27th. Now one thing we must point out is that the chip actually looks like a "Support Our Troops" ribbon because Fritos are yellow.
Staff Meeting Tomorrow Night
Tomorrow night we are going back to Harpoon Louie's in Avondale for our staff meeting. The last time we went we had some pretty bad service and the beer was flat, but we hope that things will be better this go-round. See you tomorrow night!

Vienna Garden Restaurant
Last week (for our staff meeting) we were planning on testing out the new Vienna Garden Restaurant at the corner of King and Forbes in Riverside. However, after perusing the menu, we decided to save the experience for another (more intimate) time. Mostly due to the overwhelming entree prices. Well, over the past week several staff members have patronized the joint and every single one of them had terrible things to say about the experience. Most notably the horrendous service! Other complaints include the beverage (beer) sizes, cold food, and the price. We aren't really surprised by any of this seeing as how the building used to be a convenience store. Oh....and apparently the place has not been zoned for their patio, so we suspect that the City will be getting involved at some point. If you want to go our for a nice dinner.....we suggest Preservation Tap & Chophouse Here's the menu faxed over by Vienna Garden Restaurant, we apologize for the crappy quality.
7 Reasons To Watch Heroes
As most of you probably know, season 2 of Heroes premiers tonight and we have 7 Reasons To Watch from our friends over at PopCrunch:
We can't wait!!!
1. A New Villain More Powerful Than Sylar
2. Hiro Gets A New Love Interest
3. Shorter Breaks
4. “Claire Bear” (Hayden Panettiere)
5. Time Travel
6. New Heroes with New Powers
7. Cliffhangers Will Be Resolved
Free Music
Starbucks and Apple are teaming up to bring customers free music. Between October 2 and November 7, Starbucks customers can receive "Song of the Day" cards redeemable on iTunes for a complimentary song that has been selected by Starbucks Entertainment. But....is it really free when you just paid $7 for a coffee?
Riversh*tty Brunch
The Jacksonville Confidential crew took a trip to the Southbank yesterday for brunch. Most of us had never been to the River City Brewing Company (835 Museum Cir.) breakfast so we decided to give it a whirl. It was pretty much doomed from the moment we walked in the door and requested a table for 8. The hostess, who we coined "Cruella Deville" was rather bitchy and seemed to be really put-off by our request. After about 30 minutes of waiting around, we were finally escorted to our table. Once seated we waited another 10-15 minutes for our drink order to be taken by our server Evan and then an additional 5-10 for the drinks to actually be delivered. After we quenched our thirsts we all waited around dumbfounded wondering if we could go ahead and serve ourselves at the brunch buffet.....our server never did give us the go ahead, so we took it upon ourselves to start feasting. The buffet consisted of the usual brunch items (scrambled eggs, home fries, a pasta dish, chicken, salmon, shrimp, crab legs, fruits, breads, sliced meats, waffles and an omelet station). We all loaded up our plates and sat down to taste the bounty. Needless to say, nothing was stellar. The scrambled eggs were totally gross and the chicken & salmon dishes tasted exactly alike....like shake-n-bake. The home-fries were undercooked and hard, the bacon was all clumped together and rubbery, and the sausage tasted like it was right out of the freezer. Maybe some ketchup and hot sauce would help? 4 of us requested condiments and only 2 small ramekins of ketchup and one small bottle of Tabasco were delivered at first; we eventually weaseled our way to two more ramekins. So, okay..its time for round two. We were all pretty much done with the breakfast type foods and made our way to the seafood station (which consisted of shrimp, cold crab legs, and strategically hidden hot crab legs). The seafood was pretty okay, the crab legs actually turned out to be our favorite thing on the menu and we all refilled our plates several times (we also felt that by eating so many MAYBE we could recoup the expense of the brunch - we'll get to that in a minute). As the plates stacked up (yeah, the service was totally suck ass) and our beverages continued to drain (even the water that tasted like it was right out of the St. Johns River), we were all getting a little restless and demanding. After we finished up we, of course, had to ask for our checks. The checks arrive and we were a little blindsided by the already included 19% gratuity (for our party of 8 or more). Yes 19% added for a BUFFET. AND...not only was the 19% added, IT WAS ALSO TAXED!!! Thank goodness there were customer questionnaire cards included, we all filled them out and the place got terrible reviews. And you know we took some pics too.....

Deee-Lite - KNOW THEM!
We are infatuated. Here are a few vids from Deee-Lite, if you dont know them you are lame......and need to be taught a lesson....so here! -
The Editor Still has his Japanese Import of this remix.
Holy Sh*t!
So...a few JC members were just drinkin' some beers and reminiscing and we decided to look up some Deee-Lite videos and we cant effin believe it! We found a video from a tour that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US had attended back in '94 at Club 5. Though this isnt from the Jacksonville leg of the tour, we all saw this performance (at prolly 3am may we add?), somewhat.
Technical Difficulties
We are currently experiencing technical difficulties with our internet service. Please bear with us. Death to NUVOX!
Wha Eva Maury
That stupid "Leave Britney Alone" homo was on Maury yesterday to defend his/her video. Do we really want to see this person get famous? Rumor has it that Chris Crocker has already signed a production deal and will have his/her own show sometime in the near future.
We Hate Them
Oh geez......yet another "band" (or should we say group?) reunited. The Backstreet Boys are back....again. Here's their brand new video, "Inconsolable".

Welcome To Jacksonville
Check out "Blog Devotional #19" from Chris Jones, CEO and Founder of Inspirational Experiences Ministries. Chris "claims" to be hoarse from visiting Wild Adventures Theme Park, but we have a sneaking suspicion that its from something else..........
The Most Awesome Game Ever!
We want to introduce you to the most amazing game ever...the Puchi Puchi Bubble Wrap Game. Pictured below, the Puchi Puchi Bubble Wrap Game is a new electronic version of everyones favorite past-time, popping bubble wrap. Click Here to read the full story.
Joe(y)'s Definition-O-The-Day
Farting Terms - A Milestone in a new relationship where both parties male and female feel at ease when breaking wind in front of one another thus getting quite accustomed to it. Most of the time, this gets their bitch or ho to come back to their crib to bang up the ass. "You've been with that chick for a long time and youre not even on Farting Terms yet? Do you have to go the bathroom every time you need to rip one?"
Kate - Joey did this!
PSA
We did a little grocery shopping at Publix over the lunch hour. While we were there we made sure to invest in a few Green Bags for here at the office just in case some of the staff members need to do a bit of shopping. The Green Bags are AWESOME, they hold a ton stuff and are extremely durable (not to mention they are the hottest new accessory). For just a mere $1.49 per bag, you too could invest in a few of these re-usable totes and play a part in preserving our environment. Click Here to read more about Green Bags.
Consumer Consequences
Check out this neat little "game" from the people over at Market Place called Consumer Consequences. Heres the gist from American Public Media:
Click Here to play the game.
Consumer Consequences is an interactive game designed to illustrate the impact of our lifestyles on the Earth. It's part of American Public Media's™ special series, "Consumed," which explores whether the modern American lifestyle is sustainable in the long run. (Stay tuned to this site for more "Consumed" content).
Consumer Consequences will ask you a series of questions about your lifestyle, and as you play, it will show you how many "Earths" of natural resources it would take to sustain all 6.6 billion humans… if everyone lived like you.
Keep an eye on the background graphics of your in-game world as you play. They'll slide across the screen like theater scrims as you answer questions to illustrate what your "world" of consumption would look like. They'll reflect the waste you produce… the infrastructure (commercial, residential, industrial and transportation) you require… the energy (fossil, nuclear, and renewable) you consume… and how your lifestyle impinges on forests and other undeveloped land.
The impact of your lifestyle is calculated based on the "ecological footprint" model created by our research partner, Redefining Progress. Learn more about ecological footprinting or about the calculations that underlie Consumer Consequences.
Consumer Consequences lets you compare your lifestyle with other players and gives you a chance to modify your choices and reduce your footprint.
Here are The Editor's results.
The Aquarius Mission
The Aquarius Mission 2007 began Monday and will continue through September 23rd. Four live webcams are set up for you to follow the mission, plus two cameras attached to divers and a surface camera.

World renowned sponge biologists Dr. Niels Lindquist and Dr. Chris Martens will provide a first hand look into how reefs interact as a real life colony in this ecosystem, and the many daily issues that impact them. Watch as they perform their scientific experiments with sponges to better understand these complex organisms and what they have to tell us.

Joe(y)'s Definition-O-The-Day
Pirate Dice - Nasty Teeth, usually yellow or brown, possibly with some missing.

Reminiscing - Pirates
We are re-posting this blog from a few weeks ago because we found it rather pertinent to National Talk Like A Pirate Day". We LOVE the idea and wonder if this could also work for Jacksonville? Of course, we don't really have any connection to the sailors of the Caribbean but wouldn't it be fun to walk through downtown and gawk at the pan-handling pirates? We vote YAY!Mayoral candidate Sloan Bashinsky in Key West has a proposal for "cleaning up the homeless". He asserts that Key West should exploit its connection to the infamous sailors of the Caribbean by dressing up its city workers or the homeless as pirates.

National Talk Like A Pirate Day
