Donkey Game

Everyone may have played a donkey game a time or two. Though, the below image raises some serious questions. Questions like, why is the kid in the picture wearing a pirate's eye-patch? Is this the son of One-eyed Willy? Does he think the donkey is a ninja, and what is he going to do with that paint brush near that poor donkey's butt? Lastly why is the donkey so happy? Even more lastly, why do I have a picture of this toy? I thought this was supposed to be a fun, child's game.

New Heehaw Jones video I just discovered

I was just looking at Heehawjones.com and discovered this ridiculous new video .



This next part I was forced to put on this blog because of some legal stuff regarding Heehaw. Basically, we have to sell these shirts for Heehaw Jones due to what his lawyers called "defamation of character" regarding his appearance in Enter The Donkey and Night of the Living Donkey. So, here it is, $12.99 a pop.

Buy it here, I guess...
Effort.tv Store

Oh, I heard that Heehaw is going to make another public appearance at a Night of the Living Donkey & The Green Race Movie showing in Knoxville, TN. It's at River Sports Outfitters on Tuesday March 11th, 7:30 PM. I'm sure he'll be trying to sell more shirts and wanting to sign autographs for everyone. I guess that's what pro paddlers do.

Secret is out, defend yourselves

Now that the secret is out about the zombies it's time that every paddler knew how to defend themselves if faced with the horrible fate as all of the Night of the Living Donkey cast. My friend Damon Bungard was generous enough to pass on the following link about defending yourself against the undead. http://www.fvza.org/zdefense.html
This is obviously good information for any person, kayaker or not. Really, this should be part of swift water rescue training, aca instructor certification, cpr training, pre-algebra and a laundry list of other curriculum.

At the premiere last night some folks were asking about the video soundtrack. You can check it out at iTunes.

Keep an eye on the WorldKayak.com site for more premiere dates for the video. WK ambassadors will be hosting NOTLD showings and some of them will be in conjunction with The Green Race Movie.
