Conan the Destroyer (of bad Comedy)

I've always thought that there are 2 kinds of people in this world. People who enjoy Conan O'Brien and people who enjoy Jay Leno. I stand firmly in the O'Brien camp. I don't know if it makes me a snob, but I consider "Jaywalking" an attack on humanity.

Further reading on the subject here. The article makes me think he very much needs one or two female writers on his staff. Talk about a dream job...

Skills to Pay the Bills

I totally need to learn this guy's routine so that I can wake up later than like 5:30 every morning. I especially enjoy the pants shimmy. Although, not as much as that one lady in the audience.



Come on people, let's make the pants shimmy a cool new party trick. Or maybe they can write a song about it. It has to be better than this.

Paper Heart

Kind of excited to see this:



Although, it could run the risk of being too adorable. There is a fine line.

From A to A

Started trying to listen to the artists on my ipod in order and the band Afghan Whigs still rocks my socks after all these years.



Air will likely be the soundtrack to my walk home



I will be very proud of myself if I can manage to get past C with this little experiment.

One Angry Man




I came across this affidavit this morning and had to laugh. It looks like a joke, but in my experience people do get this testy about jury duty, they just don't put it in writing to the Court.

Heather and I actually have a wall of shame at the office that is filled with things we've come across that made us laugh. This has been placed among the other documents, which include a rental application in which an applicant lists the reason for leaving his former address as "followed a girl" and a photo of a unit taken at the time of the tenant's move-out. The photo is of the unit's bathroom and documents all of the items that were left behind including a pair of BVDs in the center of the room. The underwear is arranged in a way that we imagine the Sheriff was pounding at the door and someone literally jumped out of their BVDs and ran. Actaully, now that I think about it that may be more sad than funny.

I'll give you something to swine about...



Quite frankly I am just plain tired of the media hysteria that has ensued over the last few days with respect to the Swine Flu. Don't get me wrong, pandemics are serious, but in this particular instance rather than fanning the paranoia flames, perhaps we should be putting this strain into perspective. Did you know each year 36,000 people in the U.S. die of complications related to the standard flu? To date, one person in the U.S. has died due to Swine Flu.

Did you also know that the World Health Organization was expecting this, apparently we were past due for a pandemic since they occur ever few years. Luckily, it was caught fairly early and it's epicenter is Mexico rather than a third world country without the means of containing the spread of the strain.

Bottom line, all y'all media peeps need to chill.
