Sunday Funnies










Comments

I'll miss the Colbert Report. Guess I'll just have to start taping the Late Show instead.
I had heard of how bad CNN had gotten with its nonstop Malaysian airflight coverage, but didn't get to experience it until this past Monday when my mother and sister took us to a restaurant...and then again on Friday when I went to another restaurant and it was on the TV. It seems like it's always "Breaking News" too, but probably even moreso for the families having to have the constant reminder.

Oh, that one of Marois with the bag on her head is just TOO FUNNY! Love the Mad Man one and the Colbert one too.

Be interesting to see if he drops his persona for his new show and just what his real character is like.

There's something really wrong with the news media when they term "still haven't found the plane" breaking news.

That Marois one this week had to be my favourite.

Ah Dufus, how I have missed thee. And yes, it's all about the coverage.

This just in: tyne black box batteries are dead.
Great funnies Dufus. And I feel guilty for admitting that I'm so tired of the Flight 370 coverage. I feel for those who have had their hearts broken, but seriously, all the coverage is doing those poor family and loved ones NO FAVOR.


Great Colbert funny! I hope he does well.

Imagine just what's been spent on the search that never seems to end.

My Back Pages - November

I know, I know, I know I should have reported in before now. But sometimes real life just gets in the way. I attempted 5 books in November. I say attempted because I slapped a big DNF (did not finish) on Neal Stephenson's Cryptonomicon. I just can't seem to get into this guy. It's the second or third of his I've given up on, Not so the other four, starting with a biography of Stephen Stills called Change Partners. This followed by a hilarious biography of the guy responsible for National Lampoon called A Stupid and Futile Gesture - How Doug Kenney and National Lampoon Changed Comedy Forever. I ended the month reading yet another biography, this one of the man behind Rolling Stone magazine,. It was called Sticky Fingers: The Life and Times of Jann Wenner and Rolling Stone Magazine. A fascinating read. So last month I hit the magic number 50 I'd imagined for myself back in January. If I roll this month into my yearly total I'm at 54 books. And I still hav...

The Polka Dot Door

A long time ago, when I was 22, my first child was born.  That kid grew up on a little Canadian kid's show called Polka Dot Door, produced by the TV Ontario network.  And Dad, more often than not, sat through those shows with his little one. Nine or so years later when a brother, and a year after that when a sister came along number one son was moving on to Knight Rider and The Dukes of Hazzard.  But there was a nice overlap where his siblings picked up where he had left off with Polka Dot Door.  And Dad was right there to welcome them. So you're looking at a Polka Dot Door veteran.  The show began in 1971 and ran to 1993.  I didn't watch the full run but I did get in my fair share.  The formula was pretty simple.  A young male and female host, which seemed to change every week, sang songs, told stories, made crafts and generally did their best stimulate little brains.  The show opened as follows... Imagination Day!  Oh boy! ...
