Humor: December 2003 Archives

From the blog today, this exchange in the comments section. For those unfamiliar with the Blog For America site and its conventions, "the bat" refers to the baseball batter icon that gets posted every time there's a fundraising challenge on the site. The goal is to fill the bat as quickly as possible. Meeting the goal ahead of schedule is called "breaking the bat."

Stumbled across this tonight:

Poem Written After Much Contemplation On The State Of The Californian Economy

I will cut your taxes
And increase spending
Like I think I should
I don't know what it is
That I am smoking
But it sure is good.

This, and more, can be found on the Chortler's website

Was just at a dinner party where I was introduced to:

The video for Electric Six's "Gay Bar". Near-naked Abe Lincolns in leather... mmm. (Edited to add: the band's website is nearly as funny as this video. A piece about winning the Kerrang! magazine award describes the event thusly: "The award, a clear slab with a yellow K on it (good thing they didn't win two more, eh?), was presented by The League of Gentleman. 'I'd like to thank God and my record label,' said Valentine trying to keep it real. On the ride home, Dick Valentine and M. heard 'One of Us' by Joan Osborne and simultaneously realized how little the award actually means in the grand scheme of things."

Then I came home to an email giving me the website of these Ukranian dudes who are convinced that the federal government goes around putting computer chips in people's brains. (Not to be confused with chips on shoulders or sticks up people's b***)

Going to bed now...
