LIKE BROTHER LIKE BROTHER

When you grow up in the same room as another man, you get close…real close. My brother Neil (aka Butchy) and I shared a room our entire childhood. I was admittedly embarrassed about this growing up, but thinking back it was a real highlight of my life. As a result of this confinement, my brother and I have developed one douchy personality that we both share. We both have different interests, hobbies, waist size, and ball sacks, but when it comes down to it we are the same.

Nowadays, I live in Manhattan and my brother is attending college in Rhode Island, needless to say we don’t share the same room. However, every once and a while I believe our brains get on the same wavelength and as a result we engage in the same specific odd behavior.

A prime example of this behavior happened recently. My brother forwarded me an email that he sent to the Nabisco Corporation. He wrote this email completely intoxicated, he had a drunken urge to make a complaint with the Nabisco Corporation. Neil’s complaint was based on a famous Mitch Hedburg joke. Here is the email he sent:

I have a serious issue with the holes in your crackers. I feel like you are systimatically stealing precious cracker from the consumer with every bite. they are still delicious, and I love you for that. I want more effing cracker. Assholes.

Love,

Neil

Clearly a drunken email. Equally as funny is Nabisco’s response:

Nabisco completely ignored the goofiness of Butchy’s comment. And this is how all corporations respond to email’s like this. If you want proof of that check out this drunken email I sent THE DAY BEFORE BUTCHY’S to my cable provider:

I have RCN and I am so disappointed. The service is terrible and the customer service is even worse. I hate you, you are pathetic. To top it off you don’t offer USA HD, and now that WWE is HD I can't watch it. What a let down. I’m going to go kill myself, Benoit style. Your pathetic.

Sexually yours,

Dan Black

P.S. your pathetic

You see the similarity? No? are you dumb? oh, you were kidding. Here is RCN’s response:

RCN ignored a customers DEATH THREATS! It doesn't matter that it was blatant comedy. Anyway, I am not sure what possessed my brother and I to write these emails within a week of each other, I like to think it’s for a reason. One thing is for sure, both of these corporations don’t have a sense of humor.

PROFESSOR DBAG



I am an Alumni of the very mediocre University of Delaware. My school provided email address is Dblack@udel.edu, for the obvious reason that my name is Dan Black. However, there is a professor named David Black, you see the dilemma already? I received email from students all the time thinking that I was professor Black. At first I was real annoyed, but then I decided to just play along and fuck with the students a little bit. Here is an email I received from a Udel Student and my response…

Professor Black -

I missed class last Thursday because I had decided to withdraw from the class. I met with my advisor and have since decided against it. I know I missed homework assignments but I was wondering if I could turn them into tomorrow for you to just look over. Thank you for your time. See you in class tomorrow.

M. Snyder


Dear SNYDER,

NO, ONCE AN ASSIGNMENT IS MISSED, YOU ARE OFFICIALLY TAKEN OFF THE CLASS ROSTER. IF SOMEHOW YOU SWINDLE YOUR MEASLY CARCASS BACK INTO THE CLASS, I WILL FAIL YOU RIGHT AWAY, UNLESS YOU DROP OFF A HAVANA LIME BURRITO FROM CALIFORNIA TORTILLA IN MY OFFICE AT 14:00 MILITARY TIME. YOU ARE THE WORST STUDENT EVER, WITH THE LAMEST EXCUSES. ID RATHER WORK AT HAPPY HARRYS OR SLAM MY BALLS IN A CAR DOOR THAN DEAL WITH YOUR PATHETIC EXCUSE CATALOG.

BY THE WAY, DO YOU HAVE A COPY OF ENYA'S GREATEST HITS. I JUST GOT IT, ITS PHENOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMNAL. ITS ALMOST AS GOOD AS THE SOUNDTRACK FROM DUNSTON CHECKS IN. REMEMBER LAST WEEK WHEN WE WENT SURFING IN DEWEY. THAT WAS AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE CHICKEN PARM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SORRY FOR THE DELAY!!!!!!!/ROENICK RETIRES

SORRY FOR THE DELAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For the 3 of you that complained, DanielBlack.com will be updated wayyyyyy more frequently from now on!!!! I fucking promise son!!!!! Also, I am trying to make this page interactive, so don’t be shy write in, doesn’t even need to be relevant, I just want to hear what you are thinking. Start by responding to this…


ROENICK RETIRES!!!!!!

After 18 seasons, NHL hockey star Jeremy Roenick has announced his retirement from professional hockey at the age of 37. Roenick was a nine time All-Star and became the third-leading American goal-scorer in NHL history, with 495 goals. Who gives a fuck! Well, actually…I kinda do. Normally a professional athlete retiring means about as much to me as Elton John’s song about Princess Diana. However, Jeremy Roenick’s retirement is different, because….uh…um…it makes me think of stuff. Yeah! That’s it, sorry no big reason. Heres that stuff:

- NHL 94 on SEGA Genesis: That game is so “money” and more specifically, as Swingers so accurately portrays, Roenick dominates that game. The Chicago Blackhawks are the team to be in NHL 94, and its no secret why. Roenick’s wrap around is deadly. “It’s not me whose good its Roenick, he’s good.” Vince Vaughn can attribute a sliver of his success to Roenick’s ability in NHL 94.

- My hockey Jersey Collection: In 1995 I used to wear NHL jerseys all the time. Nowadays, it’s not cool to rock hockey jerseys, but in 1995 it wasn’t cool either. However, I thought they were the shit (“the shit” terrible expression). But the best part of all is that I didn’t wear them to class or to actually play hockey, no no noooo. I wore these Jerseys out on the weekend when I was going to hang out with girls. Better yet, if it was the winter I would wear a turtleneck underneath. My favorite jersey was a Blackhawks Jeremy Roenick jersey. It was an authentic replica of the jersey that Jeremy Roenick actually wore, except for one minor detail…instead of Roenick, the back of my jersey said BLACK. That’s right, I customized my Roenick jersey to wear with a turtleneck to hang out with girls. I was trying to trick 5th grade girls into thinking I was a professional hockey player. And not just any player, I wanted the ladies to think I was actually Jeremy Roenick.

Jeremy W’s Room – My dear friend Eric’s older brother, Jeremy, was a huge Jeremy Roenick/Blackhawks fan. My guess is because both of their names are Jeremy. Jeremy’s room had a Roenick poster hanging over his bed and a hockey stick signed by Roenick in the corner. More importantly, I saw my first porno in this same room with all my friends. Oddly enough the male porn star in the video looked exactly like my dad. Still to this day my friends think my dad is shadily a porn star.

GOOD LUCK TO JEREMY ROENICK ON ALL HIS FUTURE ENDEAVORS. THANKS FOR BEING A PART OF MY LIFE!

DID JEREMY ROENICK HAVE AN EFFECT ON YOUR LIFE, OR DOES HIS RETIREMENT MAKE YOU THINK OF ANYTHING!!!!!! IF SO POST A COMMENT, if not POST A COMMENT STILL!!!!!!!

KENNY G THEORIES!!! keep em comin!

YESSSS!!!! The responses keep rolling in:

Oh, God - - I've stayed at Kenny G's Malibu seaside estate so many times; I hope it wasn't me while in the throes of the act of love. You kind of lose control of your lovemaking in Kenny G's place. ~ Billy Poorten, Esq.

"Dude, the culprit is right there in the story. Maybe throwing protein bars at children is the only release Mrs. Kenny G has nowadays." ~
Anonymous

"The answers right under ur nose in any ordinary dictionary... Ken- Perception; understanding....... everything that someone with autism does not have.... Its Kenny G himself." ~ Anonymous

Genius! KEEP ON SENDING IN YOUR THEORIES!!!! I am going to send these into the Los Angeles Police Dept.

if you are confused read post below for clarification...

KENNY NEEDS YOUR HELP!



This past week one of America's top cultural icons was involved in a very tragic situation. Of course I'm referring to the extremely handsome, curly haired, mild mannered Soprano sax player, Kenneth Goerlick, better known by his unmistakable stage name Kenny G. Back in the early 90's you would be hard pressed to find a heterosexual male who lost his virginity without the aid of smooth jazz courteously of Mr. G.

On June 23, some hooligans trespassed onto Kenny G's Malibu beach side estate and decided to launch Powerbar's and Hershey Kisses off the 50ft balcony. One beach patron was injured by these harmful snacks, Brooke Porter a 9 year old girl needed 4 stitches in her head. Brooke was at the beach with her family including her 12 year old brother who suffers from Down Syndrome and Autism. Kenny G's wife covered all of the medical expenses.

These fiends are still at large, and I think its our duty to unmask the culprits of these heinous crimes. That is why I am asking any readers of this site to please write in any theories they might have on who threw these snacks at young innocent Brooke Porter via Kenny G's balcony. Send an email to dblack121@gmail.com or just post your theory directly in the comment section. I will post all entries on the main page of the site. ONLY YOU CAN PREVENT KENNY G RELATED INJURIES!

Here is what I think might of happened….

It is common knowledge that NFL quarterback Doug Flutie has an Autistic son, and is one of the top spokesmen for the cause. Mr. Flutie is such an advocate of autism, that he actually hates children who don't have Autism. I mean who makes an exclusive cereal for autistic children? Seriously! Also, there are only a handful of men who could successfully nail a target from 50 ft up, Flutie being one of them. My theory is that on June 23, 2007 Mr. Flutie threw a perfect spiral at the Porter family's only healthy child's head, with the intent of making poor little Brooke retarded. Just like his attempts at the championship, Flutie failed. Oh and also, Doug Flutie hates Kenny G.

OR

I hate to constantly mention Chuck Norris, but if his piss really is Red Bull, than he clearly wouldn’t hesitate to throw away a perfectly good PowerBar. Oh and also, Chuck Norris hates Kenny G.

OR

Anyone with the first name Ken, Kenneth, or Kenny, and whose last name begins with the letter G - C'mon this one is obvious, id be bitter too.
