Doblajes de Trino

Posted on June 24, 2007 by EL CHAVO!

It’s amazing how quickly the internet can connect you to things you had no idea even existed. Check out this trajectory I happened upon today:
Bandini of The GreatTaco Hunt writes a post about a taco truck in Eagle Rock that has a veggie taco on the menu. Interesting. And they even have a myspace page. Scrolling down thru the comments, one of their friends embeds a hilarious video clip détournement of the sci-fi tv show Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea only this reworking is focused on themes of homosexuality, janitors that are tired of cleaning up shit, a werewolf that needs to take a crap, and finally a message to use condoms to help fight aids, and all of it in Spanish. Lots of sick jokes later, and non-stop laughter on my part, I do a search to figure out who the hell is responsible for this tasteless but hilarious video. Turns out this and other clips were part of the Mexican tv show Blanco y Negro, where Trino, now known for many of his comic strip characters, did lots of reworkings of old video clips.

Posted on June 10, 2007 by EL CHAVO!

Now, now, kids, let’s not start laughing at the name of this restaurant, we are here for some serious gastronomic research, there will be none of this silly and juvenile snickering at the poor choice in name by some local restaurant owner. (Ha, ha, he said fanny!) Besides, we’ve already done that. Well, sort of, since this one is on Main St. and not on Broadway like the other one, but there seems to be some sort of connection between the two according to this sign..

Spotted on a street in LH, some sort of comical IED. So this terrorist comic walks into a bar and proclaims “I’m going to bomb!”

Groan.

I’ve heard from a few people in LH that Queen’s Bakery makes good cake. I found out recently that they sure fucking do! You’re not going to find anything fancy here, just that simple keki LA people have come to expect for those special occasions that require a sugar-flour-fruit concoction: the popular strawberry cream cake. Made popular by Phoenix Bakery, the strawberry cake is the definitive birthday party cake, though some folks go crazy and mix it up with bananas, or even mango! Queen’s has those crazy options, sort of.
