Ashcroft, Evans Resign From Bush Cabinet.
Really? Seriously? This isn’t an April Fool’s day joke, right? No, no, it’s November. Can’t be a joke. But I’m stunned. Ashcroft resigned. I think I might cry.
Oh, and when I say “Get out!!!” I do it with the Elaine shove and everything. It doesn’t work otherwise.
If you watched last season’s Amazing Race, you are familiar with Brandon, and his decision to not shave his head for one of the challenges because he is a model. Well, here he is – full head of hair (that I don’t think is really that good looking) – in a Target Weekly Ad!
Oh, has he made the big time or what?!?
By the way – the new season of The Amazing Race starts on November 16th! If you haven’t checked the show out, what are you waiting for? It rocks!
The latest Jeep Cherokee commercial has a rather interesting disclaimer at the bottom after a Jeep comes flying out of a volcano:
“Dropping a vehicle is only safe in commercials”
Uhm, yeah. Ok, if you say so. Because really, commercials are pretty similar to reality, and I don’t think dropping a vehicle is truly safe any time, is it?
I was expecting the TiVo to be recording Last Comic Standing tonight. After all, it is the finale episode. Instead, I find “Father of the Pride” on. What? Where is the funny stuff?
I check the TiVo’s recording list – it says that it isn’t recording the show because it’s no longer in the lineup. Yeah, noticed that. “Father of the Pride” is ok, but not what I want to watch tonight. Where is the comedy?
Then I went to the website. “Watch the Father of the Pride Marathon TONIGHT to find out who is the Last Comic Standing.” WHAT?!? You want me to watch this instead of the finale I have been looking forward to? Are you guys serious?
I back the TiVo up to 7:00 to see if there is anything there. Just a commercial telling me that “Last Comic Standing will not air tonight. Watch Father of the Pride to find out who won, and the episode will air on Comedy Central later this week.”
This makes no sense, and I’m really annoyed. Why would you replace the final episode of the show with a bunch of Father of the Pride reruns? I just don’t get it.
And is it just me, or after everything that happened to Roy, isn’t it sort of creepy to have a show with him as the main character in animated form? I mean… I don’t know, I’m sure he’s ok with it (otherwise it wouldn’t be on), but it just seems odd.
UPDATE: They posted the winner information on the Last Comic Standing site and … whoo hoo! I wanted him to win!
Mike & I are in the midst of a profound debate right now. We need your help. Please leave a comment and let us know what you think…
Are Fred & Barney from “The Flintstones” more like Lucy & Ethel from “I Love Lucy” or like Ralph and Ed from “The Honeymooners”?
