This is pretty self-explanatory. It’s also perfect if you just don’t have much time in your life to read a really long and complicated book like the bible. Enjoy.

Really, how can I not post this video from yesterday’s Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade? It’s funny and has a lot of significance, at least in the online community where I spend much of my time.

Plus, its funny to hear how not in touch people on TV really are. So, sit back and enjoy.

I’m trying not to get much into politics these days as I got far more worked up during the last Presidential election and was very disappointed at the outcome. So, this time around, I’m taking a more hands-off approach and just voting the way I want to vote and not making too much of a big deal about it.

Still, when I see some interesting and funny stuff out there about the election or about a candidate I feel deserves some serious scrutiny due to her complete lack of qualifications for the job she’s running for, I feel obligated to present what I find for your consideration.

So, in that spirit, here’s Monty Python alumni and all-around funny guy John Cleese offering his insight on John McCain’s current running mate. Enjoy.

I think this week’s video is pretty self-explanatory. In short, it made me laugh out loud. That doesn’t happen very often these days. Although, last night’s VP debate made me chuckle once or twice. Sadly, even though it wasn’t quite the horror show I was expecting (and not-so-secretly hoping for), it was still entertaining.

However, in spite of a relatively strong start for Sarah Palin, in the end Joe Biden won the debate primarily by staying on-message and actually answering questions instead of deflecting them, being the calmer voice of reason and assurance and linking McCain with George Bush a much as possible. Which, given the state of the country right now, pretty much means McCain can’t possibly win. At least I hope so.

Enjoy the video.

Today, let’s watch a video that combines two of my favorite things: Batman and financial turmoil. Well, in truth, I’m pretty much only a fan of Batman. Financial turmoil, on the other hand, isn’t that fun. Let’s just hope things start to get better come November.

Until then, have a look at this relatively clever Dark Knight/George Bush mashup.

This is pretty funny and features some pretty good performances (at least by potato standards).

Enjoy and happy Turkey Day all. 

I find this funny so I thought I would post it here. Other than that, I am currently busting my butt to meet various deadlines and doing exactly what I feared I would do — not post here much. Well, even as I said I hoped to keep up I knew in the back of my mind that I may have been biting off more than I could, well, chew.

Anyway, I will still attempt to post here as much as I can but with all the Cinematical and Comic Book Resources stuff going on, I hardly have time for LAist — let alone this here blog. Still, it would be nice to be able to do what i said I was going to do. I’m trying. I really am.

Until then, enjoy this little bit of video and I hope you get a laugh from it. Oh, one more thing. If you happen to be in San Francisco at MacWorld Expo in January, feel free to say “hello.” I’ll be there checking out all the latest Apple goodness (and maybe even an iPhone). You never know what might happen.

Now this is useful. Go here for the full scoop. Now, I’m off to get me some cool Mac threads!

hopefully this will be as funny to you as it is to me even if yesterday was actually a lazy sunday. and, if you are ever in new york, the cupcakes at magnolia bakery are quite good. in fact, you could even say they are crazy delicious.

plus, check out andy samberg’s other stuff at the lonely island site back when he was just a local LA funny guy that hadn’t hit the big time yet on SNL. i’m especially fond of the ‘bu. good stuff. or, if you prefer other chris parnell goodies, get a load of farm slut.

All the best for 2006. now if the damn rain would stop. this is getting ridiculous.

i think that covers it.
