New and Old School

New Stuff

Genius! Tag Team is currently working on a remix.




Old School

When Bubb Rubb and Lil Sis demo the whistle tips for the camera, how close to that pickup do you think they got? And note the stop sign they blow through during the demo.

Tap That Ass Like Gregory Hines!

The irrationality of a thing is no argument against its existence, rather a condition of it.
--Friedrich Nietzsche

I did have a great holiday, and thanks for asking, J. Interesting how a certain someone couldn't be bothered to pick up a phone and call a certain someone else on Xmas, nor send that someone, say, a jovial text on New Year's Eve, or proffer a nice fruit basket on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, but okay, sure, why not, I'll let bygones be bygones. No need to expect what's clearly foolish to expect--like perhaps that a certain someone could be halfway civil to another certain someone, pour exemple.

Moving on. Yes! There has been a distressing lack of posts here at Tag Team Back Again, and yes, I feel absolutely terrible about it. But all has not been an empty void! There has been a reason! There will be payoff! For there have been scurryings and happenings, as they say, "behind the scenes"--for beyond this thin veneer of a screen, of pixels, of a hastily constructed blog, and past, into the wild lawless land of zeroes and ones that make up Cyberspace, there have been murmurs, rumors, whisperings of something coming, something coming to Tag Team, something that will change everything, that will remake not only this blog but all blogs, that will be looked back on as a Moment. It is too early, too early by far, to say more--but be aware, dear reader, friend, that it is coming--and that when it does, J. and I will stand triumphant and unified, while all others cower and gasp, their mouths held open by awe.

Perhaps I should rephrase: This thing, this thing just mentioned--well, it shall happen if a certain someone finally gets off his lazy ass and actually does something to help another certain someone, with this second certain someone feeling at the moment like he's doing all the goddamn work for this stupid fucking blog and like he's just about ready to throw in the goddamn towel already, just to clarify things.

An appropriate response

I wanted to wait until after the yuletide season to respond to Erik's last post. Sorry about the lack of posts recently.

In his last post, Erik alluded to a recent disagreement we'd had in very vague and disarming terms ("There have been some, shall we say, "issues" between J. and I over this blog. Yes, already."). I assume this was a premeditated, preemptive move that he hoped would position and couch these "issues" we've had in an innocuous light in all of your minds. My hopes were that the nog, sweaters (with bells on them) and the voracious over-consumption that comes with the holiday season would in some way reveal the path of forgiveness, help me forget about these "issues," or, at a minimum, help me craft a civil, appropriate response.

Unfortunately, since Santa doesn't exist (that's right Erik...you fucking baby. That guy whose lap you plop onto every year whining about the newest PSP firmware update and Hello Kitty backpacks is just some drunk dude in a suit), my hopes for such a gift were not delivered. So, it is my decision to simply talk about it no more. I am moving on. I accept your apology Erik, so go ahead and keep it to yourself; I don't want to hear it, so don't bother. That is my preemptive action. What's done is done.

For all you (2) readers out there, I am sorry about this. Since this appears to be the only way Erik and I can seem to communicate with one another these days, I guess this is what it has to be.

Hope you all had great holidays!
