In "I can't believe they actually printed that" news, a man pleads that his manly parts were too inept to accuse him of flashing. Now, there's a defense I've never heard…
AT LEAST there weren't pictures… But man, sometimes journalism is seriously going down the toilet.
There's something missing in the world, and I can pinpoint it: there's no Daily Show right now because of the writers' strike. I just wish these media moguls would ante up to the demands, because it's fair. And, it's just… fair. No more explanation needed.
Enjoy this clip where the writers have made sure to keep their craft while still ripping on the insanity of the moguls who can't just give in a few extra dollars.

Some call Stewart & Colbert's absence "bad for democracy." I think I would agree…
The only thing that I can say for this is… Oh. My. Redneck. I swear, it's not like this all over the South, just the "special" places.
I've got fifty bucks that puts that photo at a NASCAR racing event…
As Amy Winehouse says, ‘They try to make me to go rehab, and I said, no, no, no.’ Apparently, the following fella went to rehab ‘down there in Alabamer’ [which clearly means he's not from the state, right?] and says that he will not do cocaine… however, he will drink that Tequila, and his girlfriend better watch out. This clip was TOO hilarious to not share.
Ahh, old videos, southern accents, and horrific senses of style… well, as Forrest Gump said, ‘they go together like peas and carrots.’
Thanks to my long-ago college friend, the Fisherman, here’s a fabulous video that can do nothing but make you laugh. And sometimes, you just need a laugh. 
Where it’s apparently a slow news day at CNN, they showed video of black bears congregating in a New Jersey backyard around a hammock, just after a video about an 18-wheeler carrying bees overturned in Montanta. The bears were successful in climbing in and taking a little siesta. I thought it was hilarious and amazing that it was caught.
When I checked out YouTube, I discovered that black bears and hammocks seem to be a trend out in rural areas. Here’s a hilarious clip, not only because of the content, but also because of the voice-over, which just happens to be in Japanese.
Because, let’s face it. It’s always funny when someone falls out of a hammock, no matter what species.
Ahh, a hammock. I need to be in one and take a respite. The lake is calling…
In conclusions, bees… bears… battlestar galactica. I can’t wait for ‘The Office’ to start back up.
There are a few pics/screenshots that have made me incredibly happy this week (and for a few weeks, anyway).
Seriously, how can this not make you laugh. And now I’ll have trouble seeing them normal at any point in the future. This is now my point of reference.
Football season starts this Saturday, but I can’t say that I put a lot of faith into any coach that might wear this kind of hat to practice. Honestly, how can you respect that?
This week’s weather… The rain and cooler temps look fabulous to me, since I’ve almost died of heat stroke and the disappearance of rain for the past few months. Maybe this will decrease our drought level, to say the least.
You know, when you teach your children that 9-1-1 is only for serious help calls, you never know what a 4-year-old might consider as ’serious help.’ For some (including me), math is a subject that requires bringing in the reinforcements…
Don’t freak out… but, you should know that for 2 1/2 hours tomorrow (Saturday, July 21), VP Dick Cheney will have ‘the power’ as stated by Constitutional precedent of the 25th Amendment, while President Bush is having a routine colonoscopy. Seriously, who makes one of those a routine? And, WTF, Dick Cheney will be the most powerful man in the world. It may only be 2 1/2 hours, but that is some scary stuff.
Tonight also opens up further scary hours for millions that will be in line for the new Harry Potter book. I’m not one of those… I’ve never read them or seen the movies. But, I can’t believe that there are actually grief counselors set up for tonight in the case that Harry Potter dies in this book. You’ve got to be kidding me. Grief counselors for a fictitious character? I believe the world has gone batty.
In the last of the scary news, one report in the WaPo shows that D.C. water is safe to drink from the tap, while another paper states that there are unsafe toxins in the water. Of course, the latter is easier for me to believe, especially in light of the fact that the Potomac River is home to male-reproducing fish.
Breaking news from Birmingham: Driving amid SUV soccer moms on the cell phone while on the interstate could lead other drivers to a plea of insanity. Seriously folks, people here can’t drive… and the ’southern kindness and charm’ quickly disappears once a southerner enters a vehicle.
It seems that all of this would have been a lot funnier were it last Friday (July 13). It would’ve put a nice spin on things…
Here are a few links to share, some funny, some not as funny:
