You Think What?

You read it here first…word on the street is  the producers of the upcoming BigotPalooza have added more names to the upcoming performance schedule.

When the political road show comes to your town, and according to our sources it will be coming to a public venue near you before November 2010 Election Day, that religious zealot and xenophobe extraordinaire, Terry Jones of Gainesville, Florida will be included on the program. (more…)

The word on the street is Ken Mehlman is joining the rodeo clown from Faux News Channel,  the guy who isn’t sure he wants a theocracy because he doesn’t know what one is; along with the grifter former Governor of Alaska, as well as Don Imus, you may recall he’s the over-the-hill radio DJ with a way with words to describe young black females;  along with disgraced comic, actor, performer Michael Richards the man who really knows how to call a spade a spade, along with that self appointed arbiter of bad advice and poor judgment Dr. Laura “She’s-Not-A-Licensed-Psychologist-Or-Psychiatrist-But-She-Needs-To-Be-Under-The-Care-Of-One” Schlessinger, when they will be touring the country in the coming weeks to help gin up the Repuglican Party faithful in preparation for the November mid term elections.

Tell your friends you read it here first. Plans are in the making for a national road show featuring all of America’s favorite racists. (more…)

We’ve long held the idea that watching news programs, any news programs, is a collossal waste of time. We especially find it true that anyone who is among the thousands millions who watch FoxNews Channel on a regular basis does so only to increase the lack of intelligence quota. or theLIQ. (This acronym when followed by the letters O-U-R are the reason so many people are watching Fox News Channel and come away far less informed than they were when they began watching the news programs offered by the cable news channel…) (more…)

We recognize how busy everyone is; that despite 24 hour news outlets repeating the same story ad nauseum there may be a couple of people who were out of town since this story of the debacle in the Gulf emerged. (more…)

*A Mexican Dog Story

A Canadian man says his pet disappeared after he checked the animal with Delta Airlines for a flight from Mexico City to Detroit.

Josiah Allen, a Canadian man from Ontario, told a popular consumer web site, Delta Airlines offered him an apology and a $200 credit for any future travel with the airline.

Allen said he and his girlfriend rescued the stray dog while on vacation last month in Puerto Vallarta.

“We took him to the vet’s, got him all of his shots, an eye infection treated, two baths to clean him from hundreds of dog ticks that were covering his whole body, and gave him the name Paco,” Allen said.

According to Allen, the nightmare began when the couple attempted to check Paco with Delta for their connecting flight to Detroit. Allen said a Delta agent, Althea Around, told them the pet carrier they purchased for Paco was not big enough. He added that the airline only accepted the carrier after he and his girlfriend signed a waiver releasing Delta of any liability if Paco was injured. (more…)

Everyone complains about the overload of news and information. Much of what we see and hear is just so much unnecessary baloney. If your source for news and information is one of those 24 hour cable news stations, then you’ll instantly recognize the characteristics and style of reporting made light of in the video. It’s tough to fill everyday 24 hours a day with valuable news you can use.

We want to thank our cleverly comic friends at The Onion for providing this wonderful, and on some level salient, video piece spoofing the news. They’re telling it like it T-I-S!

When Simon Cowell, the infamous, mostly astute about assessing talent, judge on the teevee reality show American Idol said during an audition when he heard General Larry Platt’s original tune “Pants On The Ground” …”I’ve a horrible feeling this tune could be a hit”, we agreed. We did not have a horrible feeling because to us the lyrics make sense and the tune is catchy. We ;like it.

Rather than dismiss Larry Platt as just some old guy who received a benevolent 15 minutes of stardom, we found him interesting enough to conduct some research.

We found he is an American treasure. He is a part of living American History. (more…)

Apple has unveiled its latest product in the “iP__”line of electronic tools.

There has been much buzz about the new iPad, which looks to us like a big-A phone for old people.

We found this video produced about three years ago by MadTV around the time the first murmurs of an iPad product were heard. We concur with the opinion expressed by the off the wall writers at MadTV.

Watch an enjoy… (more…)

We came across this funny video of a ridiculous looking flotation device. According to the reporter the item was designed in 1912 to be used for flotation in case the traveller is on a sinking ship.

Notice how the anchorman is unable to control his laughter.
We think it’s hilarious, too. Enjoy!
