If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

Holy Hannah. The president of Pakistan is on the Daily Show.

Jon Stewart must just sit around giggling at what his little comedy show does.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Why is there such a fascination/obsession with the Mona Lisa ?

The Phantom Limb addressed this issue in an episode of The Venture Bros. He said it's only famous because it was once stolen. He also compained of it being tiny.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

T.O. tried to overdose.

NYC is thinking about banning trans-fats.

When I first read that, I thought they were thinking of banning farting on the subway.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Happy Birthday, Nicole!

I wish I had the moment I told DH what a Dirty Sanchez was on film--it was gut-busting hilarious. That being said, "Oh, Screech."

My head goes 'splodey with the NIE stuff.

The AP is reporting the GOP has picked the Twin Cities for their 2008 presidential convention. Looks like we're in the clear and I won't have to get the hell out of town.

Owen's quoting Geico commercials now. DH nearly cried and made me promise to teach him to say, "Life comes at you fast."

Chicago's been batting around the trans-fat ban as well. Considering how well their foie gras ban is going (not well at all), I'm guessing they're not going to push it too hard.

This is awesome.

I remember the Christmas a bunch of my cousins and I all tried to teach the first of the cousin-sprogs (who was about 20 months at the time) to say "We bad, we bad" like Richard Pryor (Silver Streak had just come out). We also were teaching him the hand gesture switch of going from the OK sign to a thumbs-up, but when he went from the OK sign to flipping the bird instead, we just cracked up and gave up. His mother wasn't too thrilled with us treating Timmy like a trained monkey, but he was soooo cute chirping "We bad! We bad!"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Nothing is more fun than training toddlers to do funny things.

In other news, a restaurant by my house has a big sign that they have Ramadan Special Iftar Boxes for $4.99. Is it weird if I get one? I don't know what's inside, but hey -- five bucks!

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Jesse, I vote you satisy your value-driven curiousity and get the box. But you have to report back on what's in it, and what the general deal is.

It's educational! And thrify, kind of.
