Metal Moment Update
This is just a short, quick note. Manowar is giving us a taste of the Dio tribute album they're compiling, "Magic - A Tribute to Ronnie James Dio," on their website. Basically, it's just a few seconds of their cover of Heaven and Hell, but it's not bad. The blurb also says that the album should be available for download soon, so I'm keeping my eyes open for it.

The Kaiser Manifesto
I find it hard to believe, but this marks my 100th post on the Ablogcalypse. I started this blog early this year and I've already gotten this far. I'm pretty amazed at myself.
But, my Steel Legionnaires and those who bear witness to my might, I have only begun. This is only the tip of the iceberg. The Ablogcalypse cannot be stopped! There are many more things on the horizon and I have lofty goals for this place. It's time we take this to the next level.
The preparations for phase two are already in motion. I am armed with new content and am about to unleash some new regular segments on an unsuspecting world.
But there's something else I want. I might have hinted at this earlier in my musings, but my primary goal is not to create the most motherfucking awesome site in the blogosphere. That's just gravy. My purpose in this dimension is to dominate this Earth, just as I have done in parallel universes. As usual, the going is slow at first. I must pool my resources and build the foundation of my inevitable rule from scratch. Once the groundwork is laid out, though, things start to pick up.
First, all the dickheads, douchebags, and asshats will be driven to extinction. Then I'll turn the world economy on its head, making things like old VHS copies of movies starring Tom Selleck and those rubber frisbee-looking things that you use to open jars the most valuable commodities on the planet. Of course, I'll have bought out every dollar store in the world by that time, so that I have the market cornered on these resources. Civilization will start to crumble from the center. Governments will be helpless to do anything in the midst of the chaos. People will look for new leadership and they will find it - in me. As I ascend and bring my brand of order to the world, many things will change. The Earth will not be what most people are used to. As Mako used to say, "Let me tell you of the days of high adventure."
At first, there will be those who oppose my rightful place as warlord of Earth. That is where my loyal Steel Legionnaires come in. Though they are small in number now, they are unparalleled in might and will. One day, they shall number in many thousands and will rise to quell all who would usurp my rule in fire, blood, and steel. They will not annihilate them entirely, because, from time to time, we will need them to retailiate so we can crush them again. I wouldn't want the Legion of Steel to get bored too quickly.
The dress code will change significantly as well. Men and women who are in the peak of physical condition will only be allowed to wear battle armor or a loincloth and nothing else. For those who have body image issues, I will give them the option of wearing tunics and trousers or skirts. I don't want people feeling insecure about how they look. I am a progressive thinking warlord, after all. I will also allow women who opt for armor to wear less bulky armor that covers the bare minimum of their body and is easier to remove, should they ever be in an emergency situation where they must get naked.
Guns will be outlawed! Guns are for pussies. If you want to kill someone, you do it the old fashioned way. Anyone wielding a gun in my presence will spontaneously combust from my pure contempt for them.
I also will incorporate a very strict environmental program. Not only will we help bring endangered species of plants and animals back, we will genetically alter them so that they kick so much ass that no human will want to fuck with them. Loggerhead Sea Turtles will be engineered to be 1000 times their normal size, have indestructible armor, and the ability to fly, just like Gamera. Condors will have razor talons that can tear a human in half a second. Sea Otters will have psychokinetic powers that can tear up a great white shark from the inside. My own personal elite guard will be partially made of Grizzly Bears with steel jaws, Timber Wolves with ice breath, and Siberian Tigers with dragon wings. And don't forget the Pandas. They will be equipped with the greatest martial art techniques and have a taste for human flesh. You wanna mess with Ling-Ling now, motherfuckers?
There are also concers about the ozone layer. I say we destroy it. Why? So that the polar ice caps melt and we can thaw out all the Mastodons. That's right, I'm bringing the Mastodons back and, yes, I'm giving them laser tusks.
The world I create in my image will be a dream come true. You too can be a part of that dream. Go to the sidebar on the right and join the Steel Legionnaires. Fight for the side of awesome. You'll get all the coolest armor and weapons and dibs on all the hottest ladies. Don't let the world steal your dreams. Let your dreams steal the world!
Oh, and don't forget to send me gifts of tribute, you know, things that are awesome, for my 100th post celebration. You can leave your gifts in the comments or email them to me at Kaiser.Crowbar@gmail.com.
One more thing: When I celebrate my 100th post and reveal my plans for world domination, I listen to Manowar!

Kaiser's Metal Moment - Manowar!
When I ride my fire breathing metal six legged horse into battle, I listen to Manowar. When I bury my battle axe deep into the skull of a demon to save the captive beautiful maidens who were to be his blood sacrifice, I listen to Manowar. When I survey the massacre before me as plumes of blood mist spray from my dying enemies into the stormy sky, I listen to Manowar. When I'm bowling with the Titans of the Cosmos and I annihilate pin after pin with my sphere of bowling doom, I listen to Manowar.
Manowar has been kicking ass and blowing speakers since 1980 with music that invokes epic battles and remaining true to metal. Being true to metal has always been important to the guys, as they have refused to compromise their ways. Record executives and critics in the US have always criticized them, but such people are False Ones and must be destroyed by steel.
Regardless of how mainstream music views them, Manowar is still going strong, thanks to a loyal following in Europe, Japan, South America, and, to a lesser extent, the United States, where most people would rather listen to shitty music instead.
Not only is Manowar the purest of metal music, they have some of the most epic album covers. Epic warriors standing over the field of battle, surrounded by beautiful, scantily clad women and the iconic Manowar sword in hand is a sight to behold.
The music is always hard and loud. They've been known to break their own records for loudest concert numerous times. They even performed for 5 hours straight at one time. Truly, they are the kings of metal.
But do not take my word for it. Listen to the thunderous sounds that will bring out the warrior in you. Their songs are a war march and their chorus a battle cry. Warriors of the World Unite!
To all my metal brothers, Hail from the Kaiser!
