The Flasher
Monday, 02.08.10 @ 12:03PM
Three older ladies named Rose, Gertrude and Mildred were sitting on a park bench having a quiet conversation when a flasher approached from across the parking lot. The flasher came up to the ladies, stood right in front of them and opened his trench coat.
Rose immediately had a stroke. Then Gertrude also had a stroke.
But Mildred, being older and more feeble, couldn't reach that far.

We Love xkcd

You may remember the Discovery Channel's very popular jingle I Love the World. Randall Munroe of xkcd was inspired and did his own version featuring memes from his webcomic. Then Elaine Doyle and Olga Nunes produced a video that recreates xkcd's comic using the original tune, featuring a cast of prominent and not-so-prominent bloggers.
Neil Gaiman, Wil Wheaton, Cory Doctorow, Lawrence Lessig, Bruce Schneier, Jason Kottke, Google Zurich, Hank Green, MC Frontalot, Patrick & Teresa Nielsen Hayden, Mr. Toast, Miss Cellania, Team Genius, Phil Plait, Allan Amato, Maddy Gaiman, Charissa Gilreath, Belinda Casas, Chuck Martinez, Jeremy James, Joanna Gaunder, Lee Israel & Octavio Coleman Esq. of The Jejune Institute
I am honored to be in such august company. You'll find a complete listing of who's who line by line at Olga's site.
Above
Monday, 02.08.10 @ 08:00AM Amerloc reminded me of a site I featured a long time ago, but I haven't checked in with on a while. My First Dictionary is a blog that features one word at a time in a deliciously skewed manner. This entry is for the word "above".
Not a major entry today, but it's amazing what you
can do with a spare comma.
(Thanks, Amerloc!)
Won't You Be My Neighbor?

I never watched Mister Rogers. I understand that an entire generation of internet users worship him, but this video compilation is just plain creepy. (via Everlasting Blort)
Boudreaux and the Devil
Monday, 02.08.10 @ 12:02AM
Boudreaux died and was on his way down to Hell.
In anticipation, the Devil turned up the thermostat to make it extra warm for Boudreaux. When Boudreaux arrived, the Devil asked, "Hey Boudreaux, how do you like the heat down here?"
Boudreaux says, "Mais, it's just fine. It reminds me of Bayou PonPon in July."
That made the Devil mad. That night, he turned the thermostat up all the way it could go. Man it was hot! When Boudreaux woke up, the Devil asked him, "NOW how do you like it down here?"
Boudreaux says, "Mais, it's fine. It reminds me of August on Bayou Lafourche."
As you might expect, that made the Devil all the more mad. Well, that night, he turned the thermostat down all the way it could go! The whole place frosted over. Icicles started forming from the rafters. When Boudreaux woke up, the Devil asked him, "How you like it NOW, Boudreaux?"
Boudreaux, shivering, through blue lips, says, "Mais cher, I'm one happy Cajun!"
The Devil was infuriated! He yelled, "What do you mean you're one happy Cajun?!!"
Boudreaux, still shivering says, "The Saints done won the Super Bowl!"
Yes, it's a rerun from less than a year ago, but under the circumstances I though it appropriate.

Here it is the weekend, and one of my articles from last week was finally submitted to Digg! You could help me out by going and voting for the post, but be sure to click through and look at Heart Shaped Valentine Meals first (even if you read it Thursday), or else it looks like I'm rigging the vote. Thanks!
A Job Interview
Sunday, 02.07.10 @ 12:02PM
A blonde walks into the police department looking for a job. The officer wants to ask her a few questions....
Officer: What's 2+2?
Blonde: Ummmmm... 4!
Officer: What's the square root of 100?
Blonde: Ummmm... 10!
Officer: Good! Now, who killed Abraham Lincoln?
Blonde: Ummmm... I dunno.
Officer: Well, you can go home and think about it. Come back tomorrow.
The blonde goes home and calls up one of her friends, who asks her if she got the job.
The blonde says, excitedly, "Not only did I get the job, I'm already working on a murder case!"
