You all know about that musical phenomenon called “dubstep” right? You know, the music that some people love and some people describe as a musical nightmare? Well, if you haven’t heard of it, I invite you to check out what is probably the most iconic of dubstep tunes, and I’ll allow you to decide for yourself weather or not you like it.
I’m linking you to a song here with this link here. (The craziness begins at minute 1:17)
Regardless of your conclution, I believe that BeardStep is something we all can, nay, we should all get behind. Why on Earth wouldn’t the next musical phenomenon have something/everything to do with facial hair? I can see no reason. You can see no reason… There is no reason!
p.s. If for some odd reason, you’re interested in who created the sound portion of the BeardStep video, you can check him out here. His name is British Luke Dyton the 3rd of the United Kingdom. (LDUK)
p.p.s. Also, if you’re in to knitting, that sweet knit beanie that is so prominently featured in BeardStep, was hand crafted especially for me by the wonderfully talented Eliza Jarvi of pinewappleboyfilms, and Platoon of Power Squadron. (The greatest web series to ever exist.) You should check out her blog. She makes awesome stuff!
Thank you all for your patronage. Blah.. I am just awful at concluding blog posts.
First and for most interbone, thanks for putting up with my relentless ability to not follow through with things. Finally, the panther vote is revealed! Also, a whole bunch of other nonsense. Oh and about the youtube layout business, I realize that we’re all going to be switched over to the new layout soon, honestly, I was just looking’ for something to talk about as a conduit for some jokes. :) But if you really wanna vote on it, here is a poll right below!
Thanks a buttload ch’yall!
Bye.
Alright now, this is getting redonkulous, but I’m shutting down all comments until I can figure out how to control all the god forsaken spam that I’m getting on this site. The various Captcha plug-in’s that I’ve tried to install haven’t done a g’dang thang mang. Infact, the method in which I’ve managed to shut down my commenting system is by installing a Captcha plugin that flat out doesn’t work so hard that it just breaks my websites ability to accept comments, so while you may think you’re commenting, and completing an elementary mathematical equation to “prove you aint a robut”, it’s all for not. And that’s a real big bummer city town.
So, I’m really sorry to all you excellent legitimate commenters, and I will miss you dearly until I can figure this out. If you have any good suggestions, send me a message on youtube or you can tweet it at me via the twinterbone…. or login via Facebook and comment. That still works.
Also, I’ll be changing the name of “Daily Kitten” to Semi-Daily Kitten, because lets just face it people, I can’t keep up with the daily uploading. If you haven’t noticed, not keeping up with things is kind of my thing. Yet you still watch my videos and comment on my website and for that I am eternally grateful and will continue to try to get better at keeping up with things that I say I’m going to do. I have collected a good batch of about another months worth of pictures, and they’ll be going up shortly. You may as well hold me to that, but I can’t guarantee you’ll emerge from this leap of faith satisfied.
Merry Christmas to you all.
Alright, so, I couldn’t help but take note when this ad started popping up all over my website…

Yikes!
It’s since vanished from my site, (I know, sad!) But while it was here, it inspired the idea for the above update video, so for that I am thankful, honestly now… it’s really worth taking a look at the website the ad went to. I especially like Mr. Augusts. Three sexier dudes have never put on the badge!
Anyway, I thought it would be fun to make my own version of this calendar, seeing as how I do have a plethora of cats laying around, and also seeing how I am super sexy all the time, how could I not do it?
Mr. Naughty November is big-time youtuber Travis Betz AKA TheReceptionist. I highly recommend you check out his amazing videos. He’s the real deal!
Anyway, don’t forget to keep voting till Friday @ noon for where the Panther will be permanently mounted!
Where should I mount the Inspirational Panther?
Total Voters: 877
UPDATE:
Nice, the ad found it’s way onto my video. 
Greetings The Interbone!
So the panther has long since had a special spot to call his own. In fact, he hasn’t had a spot on our walls since two whole apartments ago! That’s several many months-years I tell yah! So let’s put that to an end right now shall we? First, if you haven’t already, watch the video above. Then, vote in the poll below.
Where should I mount the Inspirational Panther?
Total Voters: 877
The poll will be open ’til Nov 11, 2011 @ noon.
You can vote once per day, so I invite you to come back and vote as often as you want.
While you’re here, (this is sort of the un-offial launch” of my re-designed website) why don’t you take a look around. Tessa and I are going to be uploading a brand new photo of Sgt. Grumbles and Soy Sauce, every day until there are no more days left… In the world. That feature, creatively, is called “Daily Kitten!”
So feel free to check that out, comments on the photos will be eligible to become the title of that days photos. So, get out your funny suits, and start commenting.
Again, because I hate it when you have to sign up and register for websites, here at van awesome.com, you don’t have to sign up for anything. If you have a Facebook account, then you’re already logged in via Facebook, if you don’t want to do that, then you can comment as a guest. Simple dimples.
Thanks again for making the effort to come here and vote, you can subscribe to website updates via RSS. I can’t wait to find out where the Panther will be delivering his special brand of inspiration from this point forward.

As you may or may not know by now. My cat, the interbone sensation, “BonkBonkBonkBonk!” very unexpectedly passed away.
I suppose I’ll go into a bit more detail here about what exactly happened. Tessa and I went out on our Sunday afternoon shenanigans, namely shopping, eating, shopping and eating some more like we do pretty much every Sunday. We were out probably no longer than 3 hours. We returned home, and for some reason I head straight back into my office, I think I was wanting to pet Bonky as we’d recently groomed and bathed him. So he was bound to be extra soft and awesome. Anyway, I get into my office, and I see poor bonky, laying unusually still at the base of my desk. Somehow, I just knew. Something wasn’t right.. Bonky was in trouble.
I walked over, and slowly moved my chair away from where he was laying, he didn’t move at all. Then I saw his face. I just knew. There were things that used to be on my desk scattered around him, and there he lay… gone. Tessa and I rushed him to the vet. Holding on to any hope we could possibly find in our minds. But he was gone.
We can only theorize about what actually happened to him. We think maybe he had some kind of freak accident, possibly completely or partially missed my desk while trying to jump up. Maybe it was something else, maybe he was on my desk when something happened to him, maybe a heart attack. It’s really hard to say. We didn’t think about ordering an autopsy until it was too late.
The grief we felt was unbearable. I felt lost, confused, anger, guilt… I felt empty.
As hard as it was to do, Tessa and I decided that night to make a video letting everybody know what had happened. That was the hardest video I’ve ever made. We knew lots of people really liked watching Bonky, but we had no idea how much he meant to so many people.
The response and outpouring of love and support from the entire interbone was really overwhelming. When all said and done, between profile comments, pm’s, and video comments, we’ve received well over 2000 letters from people telling us how much Bonky meant to them. They continue to roll in and we’ve flat out lost count.
He truly was an amazing cat.
I honestly can’t remember ever being sadder. Thank you everybody for all your support. You’ve really helped Tessa and I.
So to Bonky, it’s been just over two weeks since you left us. I miss you more than I can express. I think somehow you knew how awesome you were. How special you were in life and death. While you were here I called you a pet, but now that you’re gone I know you were so much more than that. You were my friend, my boy, my quadruple Bonk. And you will never be forgotten.
-Joe
So, I’ve never been much for actually blogging. But I think I’ll give this a shot. Maybe by putting my thoughts down onto “paper” it will inspire me to get back into vlogging. I imagine that I’ll be writing a bit about Bonky, and his unexpected passing. God I miss him.
I suspect that I’ll be fairly self deprecating in my writings. Cuz sometimes making fun of yourself is funner than making fun of dorks. (You can shout “DORK!” at dorks!)
Tessa and I have started a diet to reduce our environmental fingerprints. And of course my environmental fingerprints I mean bellies and boo-tangs. Plus you poop less when you eat less. And that’s probably good for the environment. Tessa looks great already, her involvement is mostly supportive. I however need to lose more than you weigh. Yes you, even if your fat my statement holds true.
Fact is, I’m a master of camera angles, and so people can’t really tell what I look like in my videos, but trust me my interbonian friends, I am no kind of skinny. My arm is bigger than your leg. Yep. YOUR leg.
I’m disappointed in myself, no not because of my central bulbousness, but because I noticed the little red “you spelled this word wrong line” under the word “interbonian” and then got frustrated that spell check didn’t offer me the correct spelling for interbonian. “No guesses found” even?! For shame spell check.
For shame.
