    OK, that’s just damn funny.

    I’m SOoooo Facebooking this…

  2. Ella says:

    I’m going to bookmark this as my new pick-me-up YouTube clip. You know, the stuff I play at midnight when I’m so going to miss my deadline but I have a shred of hope an all nighter will see me through.

  3. LBascom says:

    Yeah, that was good.

    I liked the inspiration for it better though…

  4. Cowboy says:

    That reminds me of an old Bob and Tom guest’s song:

    I saw that a few days ago, and almost sent it to you Jeff, cause I knew you’d like it.

    KNEW it. I don’t know why I failed to email it. next time, I’ll work on my follow through.

  13. nishi's doppleganger says:

    … incessant blathering on cultural evolution and the dried up husks of corn that are conservatives devolving into single celled organisms ending with a wry sigh of regret that Jeff is no longer cool or edgy… and dumass xtians bracketed with a pointless link to some mind numbing dance music for happyfeet …

  14. Carin says:

    jeff – everyone, a good read here.

    taste:

    The new class transition to linguistic, cultural, and technocratic expertise unfolded during the profound shift toward a symbolic service economy—new class ascendancy took place during the era of the dramatic decline of manufacturing and the concomitant shift of unionized labor organization primarily into the public sector—and it privileges capacities of semiotic manipulation over material production or even military prowess. Its signature contribution to foreign policy is “smart power,” a term that nobly implies that boots on the ground are dumb and that some—still elusive—strategic rhetorical eloquence will make enemies vanish without ever firing a gun, since language is its ultimate power.

    A man who assaulted a female police officer with his penis has been fined. Marium Varinauskas, 28, tried to strike the officer on the head with his penis when she was called out to his flat,

    but she got out of the way.

    “The accused got to his feet and was standing over the police officer exposing his penis and thrusting it in her face, forcing her to take evasive action to avoid getting struck.”

    Annella Cowan was told that the Lithuanian had now quit binge drinking because of the incident.
