Who gives a damn? Certainly not me. Best GIF file, ever!

Click on the file if you don't see what's so funny. I laughed so hard my lunch came out.

TMI? Well, click on the file and see what I say to that...

Hulu - the best kept secert? Best of SNL clips I saw, tonight...

Am I out of the loop? Hulu truly is a much better way to watch TV and movie clips. The quality is a lot higher, never grainy. And you never have to worry about clicking on something that turns out to be not what you expected...

Thanks to Hulu, I can follow SNL again, and just in time for a better, much improved SNL as well. I don't remember when it started, but for a while SNL sucked big time: it was turning into Mad TV. But now, it is actually funny again. To be absolutely honest, and I cannot believe I am admitting this! I never quite got the humor of Will Farrell. I mean, Will Farrell on SNL. I loved him in quite a few movies, Old School being one of them. (A classic in my book!) And the Anchor Man is not bad at all. (Another classic in my book!) But Will Farrell on SNL I didn't quite get. I did laugh like hell, but I didn't know why. More Cowbell being a case in point... (Is this blasphemy?) I felt guilty laughing so hard, worried that any second someone would ask me point blank, "Ok, it is funny, but why?" Worse yet, what if the question were, "It's not funny. Explain to me."

The boys and I did some Youtubing on Hulu tonight. We laughed out loud at the SNL Digital Short, "People Getting Punched Right Before Eating". I laughed till tears came out of my eyes, but somehow I didn't feel guilty. It was funny because it was random. As my 11 year-old said, "It is so totally random. It is awesome!" I guess that is this generation's standard for humor now...



Another great piece is the SNL commercial for Taco Town. It is funny because it has a grain of truth to it, and it sort of makes you look at reality, and go, "Yeah, that's kind of ridiculous what Taco Bells passes for food..." Watch this, it is funny!



p.s. The boys and I thought the 2 SNL clips were so funny that later when we chatted with Dad who's away on business via Gmail Video Chat, we showed him the clips by pointing the webcam at the monitor (because Hulu does not work in China...)

By the way, Video Chat right from inside Gmail is truly awesome, and super easy to set up. Thumbs up!

Got Bacon? Thank goodness for people who have too much time on their hands...

A colleague of mine sent me a cryptic link, when I clicked on it, it showed my company's website with a big piece of fat juicy glistening bacon on top. I haven't laughed so hard since the last time the same colleague sent me the link to "Sad Trombone" (which sadly seems to no longer exist?) 

 

Check out Baconlicious...  or this one...  (ok, the second one is kind of mean, but I cannot help it!)

 

 

 

 

Ah, I love Dilbert! Need to look busy while at work in the economic downturn...

Wally creeps me out, but he does sprout some truth sometimes.



I need one of those coaches...

New Website I dig (this morning): Just Hear It (great search interface for random songs...)

Thanks to ReadWriteWeb this morning, I am in the know for a brand new website for searching random songs on the interweb: Just Hear It.  Their tag line is:

 

Any Song. Legal. Free.

 

Legal is definitely a plus.  Free is a must!

 

This will be a great tool for when you need to show junior that great song in your youth.  When I searched for "I've Never Been to Me" (don't ask me why...) though, the results shown included a few YouTube clips.  I don't really mind since the one clip turned out to be quite funny.  Ah, nostalgia. 

 

 

 

 

What's the strangest-looking package you have ever received in the mail?

Goodies: this one from my fav radio station (actually the only station I listen to, other than the station that starts playing Christmas music in October...) and one of my fav magazines:

 

Wired Magazine wanted to find out 9 years ago, so they started the "Return to Sender" Contest...

 

Wired Magazine's nine-year "Return to Sender" contest challenged readers to send any "mailable" item through the postal system without packaging.

 

"During the nine years of Wired's Return to Sender contest, we received some weird stuff in the mail: broken hard drives, a 5-foot felt "long tail," a wooden DNA helix, and an 8-track player containing an Engelbert Humperdinck tape. The rules called for readers to send us any mailable object; if it came in an envelope or a box, it was disqualified. Winners had a photo of their entry published and received—drumroll, please—a Wired T-shirt. Oh, and immortal glory."

 

Read more to learn how you can send your own POOP (permissible objects of postability)!

 

The same concept of POOP is behind this company called "Send a Ball": quite literally, you send a ball via mail!  I guess someone out there should be able to start a new company with a different sort of POOP...  (Ok, not the REAL kind, IYKWIM...)
