Best email correspondance of all time - In which Matthew Baldwin makes us all laugh, once again. My favorite comment:
“You have raised the wiseass bar for all of us.”
Joan’s Broccoli Madness - If I had been drinking milk when I first viewed this picture, said beverage would have sprayed out my nose.
A message for you - Please, have some dignity, folks. (Thanks again, Matt!)
The O RLY Owl - I laughed very much outloud when I first saw this picture. Thanks, Matt!
10 Things I Hate About Commandments - The classic movie remixed into a trailer for a comedy.
The Emperor finds out about Death Star mishap - Thank you stop-motion geekery.
Tom Cruise nearly fails to open a door - On the fastest production car in the world … I think you’ll remember which one that is (hint: I linked to it recently).
Church Sign Generator - Well, this is genius. “Ever seen those signs in front of churches with the moveable letters? Ever wanted to rearrange the letters to make your own church sign? Well, now you can.”
LeBron James On Pace To Become Youngest Player To Turn 22 - The Onion satire - how you put others to shame with your brilliance.
Ice cream cone turner - This is almost as bad as the “bugle emulator,” which allows a guy to hold a bugle to his mouth at a military funeral, and have “Taps” be electronically played. Technology is so stupid sometimes.
My best title for an image yet.
Huge Block Of Ice Falls From Sky In Oakland - My favorite part is from the end of the article:
“Big balls of ice sometimes fall from the sky without any real explanation.”

I was going to write a post about how I thought the headline “orange juice futures looking promising” from the Wall Street Journal was funny … but the paper has since gone out for recycling; and when I think about it (like many posts), it really was not the greatest idea. That said, there were a couple of other things that made me laugh the past couple of days. If I could only remember one …
Reading Plato’s Republic, I called Mykala over to share a passage with her about Plato saying “But I am too stupid to be convinced by him.” I never got there because the “him” was Thrasymachus. Now, while reading the passage, I went with the pronunciation Thrassy-maykuss, which caused both of us to halt a minute or two later. “What?” Mykala asked, genuinely puzzled by my pronunciation. “I was just trying to read through it and get to the point,” I replied. Mykala took one glance at the page and said, “Oh, Thrasimakiss.” Stunned silence from both sides.
Don’t get me wrong, I do like WCCO Channel 4 News. It is the number one rated newscast in the Twin Cities, as it well should be. Consider one of its competitors, Fox 9 news, which has reported on (and aired “teaser” portions promoting) such life-changing issues as school bus drivers not showing up to work, rusty fire hydrants, and what your pets do when you leave the house. The pets piece was actually advertised on the radio the day that ground-breaking investigative masterpiece aired. Oh, and if you are wondering how Fox 9 cracked the mystery of what pets do: hidden cameras. Wow.
