George Carlin

George Carlin has passed on. He has shucked off his mortal coil and joined the Choir Invisible. I don't think he rates a "Raise a Glass", but I did think I would add a few funny quotes from him.

"You can tell a lot about a person by what they'll do FOR $10 and what they do WITH $10"

"Ever wonder why at the end of every package of bacon there's always one weird piece of bacon? "

"Ever notice when you blow in a dog's face he gets mad at you, but when you take him in a car he sticks his head out the window?"

"What do dogs do on their day off? They can't lie around--that's their job."

--"I like using words that have never been used together before, like 'hand me that piano.'"

Says it all

I guess this makes me a cynic.

Best Frasier Episode Ever

I think this just might be the funniest three minutes on television.

Are Canadian Coins Bugged?

It's tin foil hat time people. While this is for real, I doubt that anyone would get much information about me by following my money around.

A Little Late for the Holidays

Here is a heart warming tale of the holidays from the archives of Dave Barry. As Dave says, Happy Holiday Retail Purchasing Season to all.

Another Funny Video

Here's another favorite video of mine. I don't want this to become another goofy video site, so I will try to limit it to just a couple of my favorites. This is the guy who played Biff in the Back to the Future movies.

I'm Torn

Here is an update to my all time favorite You-Tube type video. It is a mime (David Armand) doing Natalie Imbruglia's "I'm Torn". Like most people, I have a general aversion to mimes, but this guy is just great.

Bongo News

While we are laughing, you might want to try Bongo News. As their Masthead says, "More people get their satire news from Bongo than from any other sauce".

I like the article proclaiming that since Paul Mcartney's divorce, and the death of the other two Beatles, Ringo is now the richest Beatle.
