The Frank fam was rolling deep in Greenpoint last Friday when Klever & Tittsworth wrapped up their exclusive “Kleavage” tour at Studio B. The heads were out… the beats were hard… the roof caught fire… all that good stuff. Peep all the party pics at Tone’s excellent homepage, here.

Special shout outs to Mishka, Worship Worthy, Good Peoples and The Taste Crew — teamwork gets ‘er done.

Bobby Fischer, a high school dropout from Brooklyn who became the most famous chess player of all time, died yesterday of kidney failure.

After becoming the world’s youngest Grandmaster at 15, and scoring a Cold War victory for the US by defeating Boris Spassky (the Russian world champion) on national television in ‘72, Bobby went a little nuts and began spitting venom like a snake.  He renounced his US citizenship, alienated the world with anti-Semitic radio rants (even though he’s Jewish himself), and praised September 11’s terrorist attacks on his old hometown as “wonderful news.”

We’ve decided to ignore that last part of his life. Before then, Bobby was a King. He was a prodigy, from humble BK origins, who rose on nothing but skills. He brought chess to the public eye, even gave it some swagger — he compared pro chess to pro boxing, and acted accordingly.

“Chess is war on a board. The object is to crush the other man’s mind.”

Notorious for his raw bravado, he famously psyched his opponents out during matches and took pleasure in their defeat: “I like watching them squirm,” he once told reporters.  Basically, when he was on top, dude was the most badass chess champ possible. 

The harder they come…

Seems like childhood memories are the theme of the day…

DuckTales was the only Disney TV ‘toon we’d ever fuck with.  Uncle Scrooge always came correct… he rocked the spats and the private jets, made his fortune as a globe-trotting treasure hunter, and kept his assets so liquid he could swim in them… plus, you know he only drank the illest single malts money could buy. 

They probably edited out his Cubans.

 As an homage of sorts, the heads over at Fatal Farm in LA (who’ve made a name for themselves by taking unusually inventive liberties with retro classics) have reimagined McDuck and the curious relationship he had with his niece and nephews….  It’s unreal.  Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

Next check out this gem Frank151 unearthed from the Disney vaults… 

The Beagle Boys got a cut of their own on the 1982 kids’ exercise tape Mousercise — it’s called “Get the Money” and it’s ripe for copyright abuse.  If anybody out there wants to chop this up or give it the Bmore treatment, please do so — and send it back to us, so we can all share the goodness.

Remember the way you felt, waking up in the morning on a school day… your moms is shouting at you ’cause you slept thru the alarm again… you don’t have any of your homework done… the girl you’ve been feeling just switched school districts… you spent all your lunch money on a dime sack at the beginning of the week, so you’ll have to bum snack food off a friend….

And that’s how it felt every day. 

Last week, 10-year-old Mexican schoolboy Diego Palacios decided he wasn’t gonna take it anymore. 

So, instead of getting up and going to school, Diego superglued his hand to the bed. 

Good, creative solution — too bad paramedics were able to get him unstuck in just minutes.  Kid only bought himself a couple of hours.  Apparently, superglue isn’t the solution to every problem (but we applaud Diego’s efforts).

Taser International, Inc CEO Rick Smith says the company’s new line of tasers and accessories are intended to “provide a personal protection option for women who want fashion with a bite.”

Yes, they certainly do bite.  

Check out their uber-fashionable new consumer tasers, with tasteful titles like “red hot” and “fashion pink”… and the cleverly named ”Leopard”. 

Besides bags, t-shirts, polos…and practice targets (you need to practice tazing??)… the company just released a taser holster with a built-in 1GB mp3 player… because you don’t wanna hear a fool screaming when you’re tazing him.  Turn the volume up.

The first :08 seconds or so must be the craziest crash footage we’ve seen in a long time…

Almost as crazy as the fact that dude gets up and walks away afterwards.  We’d hate to be that cab driver.

Big shock.  Anyone who strolled by this work site over the past few weeks could’ve predicted something like this going down.

The sad part is that whatever cost-cutting bullshit the Trump crews are pulling down there led to an innocent concrete worker’s death.  Someone should start an anti-Trump foundation in the guy’s name.
