Thank God, I can't hear a thing!
Thank God, I can’t hear a thing!

The weekend approaches, and I just realized I hadn’t posted any music videos in a while…

Hey! Where you going? Get back here! It won’t be that bad, really…

Ok, maybe a little bit.

First up, what do get when you pair an iconic performer with an equally iconic TV show theme? I don’t know, but if you find out let me know. Instead listen to this:

Disapproving Rabbits, lolcats, icanhazhotdogs, Misery Bears, cats with box fetishes, and now a cat who’s famous for her sour puss!

It just goes to show ya, the internet will make anyone, or anything, famous for a week or so.

Why can’t you do anything colorful Gracie? Oh good, she’s licking herself.

wormholeA wormwhat? A whathole?

From The Argus:

Council bosses have been left mystified after reports that a portal to another dimension has opened in a residential street in Brighton.

A member of the public reported to Brighton and Hove City Council that the “wormhole or vortex” had opened up in Montreal Road, Hanover, on May 2.

They made the report via the website Fix My Street which is more typically used to report potholes, dumped rubbish and broken lampposts.

The anonymous poster said: “I was recently walking my affenpinscher (a toy breed of dog) around the Hanover area of Brighton when I noticed that a wormhole or vortex has opened up on Montreal Road.

“On closer inspection it seems to be some kind of portal to other times, places and dimensions.

“I would have investigated further but I was concerned my little dog would be sucked into it.

“Is this meant to be there? At first I believed it might be part of the Brighton Festival but I believe it could be a hazard to the general public. I look forward to your response.”

They followed this up with a report on Thursday, explaining: “The other day I reported the presence of some kind of wormhole or vortex on Montreal Road.

“I went past the other day and it seems to have got worse – it is now emitting an unsettling yellow light and a large snake appears to be emerging from the wall.

“I am concerned this is a passage to another time or dimension, and if this snake is anything to go by, I’m worried what else may emerge from the wormhole. Can anyone suggest a course of action to take?”

Brighton and Hove City Council told The Argus they will not be investigating the report.

Thank your lucky stars you’ve only got that enormous pothole in front of your house to worry about!

They See Me Rollin’…

They hatin’.

Well, these days, I don’t so much roll as ooze. Oh well, I guess it happens to

Ol' time granster...ahem.
Ol’ time granster…ahem.

all of us eventually. One day you’re immortal, invincible, dynamic—in other words, young—and the next you’re wondering why you walked into this room for the third time.

Seriously, is it really necessary for everything to go south at once? Is this just God’s sense of humor at work? First the back goes, then the knees (or vice versa), then the short-term memory, then the long-term memory, then the eyesight, the waistline, the hairline, the dew line, the fishing line…what was I saying? Oh yeah, it sucks getting old.

e-Cheers!

Matt Groening based the character of “Barney” on me. True fact.

Na zdravie! Cin cin! La Chaim!

I have been known to indulge in adult beverages on rare occasions—ahem—and like most people, I don’t like drinking alone.

Well, now the good folks at Budweiser (the sole reason for the continued existence of St. Louis) have made it possible to drink with all of your bestest buddies, even those you don’t know yet, every time you raise your glasses in a toast.

Introducing the Buddy Glass, the world’s first social networking pint glass! Hooray?

The idea behind this bizarre use of “because-we-can” technology, is that when you clink glasses, you automatically connect with others doing the same thing on Facebook. This is accomplished via a chip embedded in the glass.

Reaction has been mixed.
