My posts were deleted, not just one of them but both. In both I mentioned a certain guy was a half sexual and that he hated a certain member who has a lot of power whose name starts with a D.
Haha didn't say it but seriously what I said wasn't half as bad as what I said to the guy himself before he called me a name and blocked me.
Bubble wrap is fun, not funny but I find myself giggling as I hear pop... pop... pop.

One site I remember had the words "worksux" in its URL. When you clicked on, a loud voice shouted, "Hey everybody. I'm looking at gay porn!" This was immediately followed by hundreds of jpegs flooding your screen with gay porn.
You couldn't closed the pictures fast enough. Your only choice was to unplug the computer before anyone saw it.
I miss that site.

For those of you who don't know, "Rainbow" was a highly successful children's television programme broadcast in the United Kingdom from 1972 to 1992.
The programmed was a little like Sesame Street but more basic, the characters were actors wearing suits along with the male presenter and occasional 3 musicians..
This site contains a script actually written by the actor who played the ZIPPY character.. Apparently, there used to be a tradition in UK Television where actors and technicians would write and produce Christmas tapes lampooning their shows just for themselves.. Sometimes, these little zany shows would be sent to rival networks and shown at Christmas Parties when the staff was getting drunk..
The script from the RAINBOW kids TV show is notorious because of the double entendres and rude suggestive remarks by all the characters.. This site used to host the video clip of the lampooned show but ITV (Independent TV in the UK) forced the webmaster to remove it or face legal action..

Damn that's fucking funny, is this really a kids show?
Yep, it was a real show for kids.. Exactly how you see it in the video..
Obviously the show wasn't like this with this kind of material..
Apparently, the guy who plays the character ZIPPY wrote the script for this episode, it was intended for the Christmas Party and it got shipped out to other Independent UK TV Stations and started a trend.. The Cast and Crew of other TV shows started making them and passing them a round much to the annoyance of the TV Bosses..
Very funny, a classic!!!

Right off the bat the chick at the beginning (who I'll call Mope Master because she looks like she's about to cry in every scene) gets the beat down by her ex-human now-zombie husband. So then she bails and gets in a car wreck because women can't drive. Then Ving Rhames threatens to blow her head off, which is cool. They meet up with some pregnant chick and you know it's going to be bad news because everyone hates kids.

I am currently working and have been working on a screenplay for the last 2 years. I have much of the research and am just about finished with a layout. The story is a science fiction fantasy based movie, which will spread through 3 Trilogies. (9 Movies). I am looking for someone to become partners with. Someone who can help me fill in the blanks, and help write the actual screenplays. I am open to new ideas and just need to take some of the weight off. Has serious marketing potential and is an amazing story. If I had to compare the story, I would say its Lord of the Rings meets Star Wars and Harry Potter. Once finished the partner and I would pitch it which I do have some contacts already. Serious Applicants only please.

While not a humor site dlisted.com reported an incredibly funny story about Paris Hilton. Apparently, the blonde bimbo is recruiting contestants for her new reality show I Want to be Paris' Best Friend. At recent New York City auditions, only forty people auditioned for the show.
I repeat that funny part: only forty people auditioned for the show. And this is from New York City where you can get a couple of hundred people to audition for the show Kick Me In My Balls.
I can only hope that this is the start of a trend where people realize that Paris is nothing and that she will disappear from the face of the Earth.

Translation and Advertising
- Clairol introduced the "Mist Stick," a curling iron, into Germany only to find out that "mist" is slang for manure. Not too many people had use for the "Manure Stick."
- The Dairy Association's huge success with the campaign "Got Milk?" prompted them to expand advertising to Mexico. It was soon brought to their attention the Spanish translation read "Are you lactating?"
- An American T-shirt maker in Miami printed shirts for the Spanish market which promoted the Pope's visit. Instead of "I Saw the Pope" (el Papa), the shirts read "I Saw the Potato" (la papa).
- Pepsi's "Come Alive With the Pepsi Generation" translated into "Pepsi Brings Your Ancestors Back From the Grave" in Chinese.
- Frank Perdue's chicken slogan, "It takes a strong man to make a tender chicken" was translated into Spanish as "it takes an aroused man to make a chicken affectionate."
- The Coca-Cola name in China was first read as "Kekoukela", meaning "Bite the wax tadpole" or "female horse stuffed with wax", depending on the dialect. Coke then researched 40,000 characters to find a phonetic equivalent "kokou kole", translating into "happiness in the mouth."
- When Parker Pen marketed a ball-point pen in Mexico, its ads were supposed to have read, "It won't leak in your pocket and embarrass you."The company thought that the word "embarazar" (to impregnate) meant to embarrass, so the ad read: "It won't leak in your pocket and make you pregnant"

Einstein in Heaven
Einstein dies and goes to heaven only to be informed that his room is not yet ready. "I hope you will not mind waiting in a dormitory. We are very sorry, but it's the best we can do and you will have to share the room with others" he is told by the doorman.
Einstein says that this is no problem at all and that there is no need to make such a great fuss. So the doorman leads him to the dorm. They enter and Albert is introduced to all of the present inhabitants. "See, Here is your first room mate. He has an IQ of 180!"
"That's wonderful!" says Albert. "We can discuss mathematics!"
"And here is your second room mate. His IQ is 150!"
"That's wonderful!" says Albert. "We can discuss physics!"
"And here is your third room mate. His IQ is 100!"
"That's wonderful! We can discuss the latest plays at the theater!"
Just then another man moves out to capture Albert's hand and shake it. "I'm your last room mate and I'm sorry, but my IQ is only 80."
Albert smiles back at him and says, "So, where do you think interest rates are headed?"

"While this man is not your roommate he does pop around from time to time but best not to waste yourself on him as his IQ barely reaches 40".
"Well how fascinating" exclaimed a clearly excited Einstein "How wonderful it is to finally meet you, how is Transformers 2 coming along?"

Wow! Unreal eh?!!!
I actually haven't had "a burger" in a long time. I've adopted many lifestyle changes which include my attraction towards high quality fresh foods as well as the use of staples such a peas, beans and lentils and the whole wild rice, couscous, on and on.... kinds of foods where the key is a kind of simple complexity if that makes sense.
I just don't like the heavily processed foods and never have. I always liked to cook for my neighborhood kids and provide a lot of soups and stews and homemade pancakes and homemade what-have-you, but using the best ingredients I could afford, (which was always subsidized by my usage of thrift stores for clothing and such thereby releasing more money for foods for my kids and my neighborhood kids).
The food industry is an industry. It seeks to seduce us with "what tastes really good", but what they give us is actually very low in quality and we develop a "habit" of frequenting places like McDonalds.
Sorry Ronald, but your day has come and the Grim Reaper is coming for you as everyone is beginning to see past your facade.

Hilarious and actually quite interesting from a writing point of view.
Thanks for posting that.
It was a superb deconstruction of the film, but it was also quite revealing about the whole process behind it.
Had to feel for Lucas in that preview screening. You can tell they all knew it was shit.
It's a horrible feeling at any level.
It really does drive home the point that less is more. The more complex or convoluted things are, the less they become. Keeping things tight and simple allows all the subtleties to come out. It magnifies everything somehow.
I love George Lucas, he's created something that I think is truly incredible. The problem is he became everything he despised. He hated the studio system and somehow he became it, adopting all their worst idiosyncracies.
One thing I will say though is that the novellists have ironed out almost all the flaws in the prequels. They've created a great back story that fills in all the holes and added depth to all the major characters who were so flat and lifeless on the screen.
Watching the films again having read them is a completely different experience.
That doesn't excuse the simple errors that should have been avoided in the films, but it's interesting to me. Star Wars has developed a way of re-defining itself in a way I've never witnessed before in any film or literature.
In the same way that the prequels change the reading of Darth Vaders story, the novels are able to continually refresh the films.
Even characters like Darth Maul who had no discernible character in the film have solid backstory and his death becomes quite tragic.

I'll never watch watch the sci-fi channel again. These fucking assholes have no fucking clue what they're supposed to be doing. Science fiction is suppose to make you imagine what's in store for us. It's suppose to make you imagine what science is capable of. It's not supposed to be to be about giant fucking piranha taking down helicopters.

Phil, come on man. It's barry williams breakout role. I can't believe they showed the special effects in the trailer. Maybe if they left it to the imagination, it would have been only half hilarious. Not to mention that they had to tell us that Tiffany and Paul Logan are in it as well. Woulda left that info also.
What's Paul Logan's address? I wanna send him a check for $50.00. He must need it if he did this pile o shit.

Hi Matt,
Now you've got me on this one. The background in this is from what? Is it Blondie? Lena Lovich?
What a way to torture someone who's been writing themselves into Hell.
I think the track in the back is from Blondie. Yeah!
After a search, I'm right, but it doesn't help Jimmy Max Green get his job back or Gabriel RaZON deal with his condition.
Ahh... so bittersweet to be writing Thief and unwriting Thief. Unwriting. Is that rewriting?
Uff! I'm studying and taking some time to watch John Cusack. I love his world. Especially because he walks the line, like Johnny Cash.
Here Matt, is the track you had me wondering about:

A pop up ad from the Predator cartoon led me to a site providing a questionnaire to see if I am possessed by a demon.
Here's my results:
You may be afflicted with a demon known as MIITAKK Miitakk is the demon of complacence and slothfulness – many initially afflicted with this demon stop making an effort in any aspect of their lives. Without exorcism or care of any kind those possessed by Miitakk will suffer from bedsores, atrophy of the limbs and other ailments of the immobile. Signs: often those possessed by Miitakk take on a nearly catatonic state, and it is difficult to get them to respond. However, if the afflicted is prodded too much, they can suddenly become violent. Touching cool water causes those possessed by this demon to feel a burning sensation.

Hey all, I haven't been writing a lot of scripts recently, but there's still a creative output.
Here's a video with me from my improv troupe:
The idea for the videos up now is that you can send them to people on facebook so that you don't have to say anything yourself. That's just sort of a gimmick though, really, as they all get too specific for that to be of any real use.
Anyway, I hope I didn't waste 34 seconds of your time.

So by this bird's logic, Japan was full of athiests?
On a sidenote about the EQ, the local newspaper here - or shitrag as I call it, not that I buy or read it, I saw this at a cafe - had a front page about Japan which read:
3/11
'Nature's terror attack on Japan', or something like that, with pictures of the water smashing buildings.
I was disgusted - but not surprised, the producers of the paper truly believe the Gold Coast is some sort of nirvana on earth and we are privileged to live here - and was thinking that any American tourists who saw this trash reporting would feel outraged, in likening a natural event to 9/11.
I'm surprised Al Gore hasn't piped up yet, claiming this EQ is caused by climate change.

You're overlooking one slight detail
Quoted from The Bible
For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve. 2 Corinthians 11:13-15
That's all I'm gonna say on this subject.

"Nobody has the right to worship on this planet any other God than Jehovah. And therefore the state does not have the responsibility to defend anybody's pseudo-right to worship an idol." --Rev. Joseph Morecraft, Chalcedon Presbyterian Church
"This is our land. This is our world. This is our heritage, and with God's help, we shall reclaim this nation for Jesus Christ. And no power on earth can stop us." --D. James Kennedy

Dear S.R. if you can research the name of Jesus in Aramaic, I'd really appreciate it because our English language didn't exist back then.

I guess I didn't hear that. Had the TV on. Well, then it's official. She's obviously claiming to be a Christian. Then again, the Devil presents himself as an angel of light, too, and he knows the Bible front to back. So there's one of three things going on with that young lady in the vid.
#1) -She's a false apostle.
#2) -She's a sincere Christian and means well, but she put her big foot in her mouth and doesn't know when to shut up. (gee, who's that remind you of?)
#3) -She's a crackpot
I'm willing to bet #2 Oh well. Nobody's perfect. But I'll tell you one thing. Whenever a disaster occurs it's always the Christians who are first to step up and help. Can we end this conversation now or is this gonna be another marathon debate?

You're absolutely right, Phil. That's religion. But JESUS isn't about a religion. He's about as loving relationship. The Pharisees were religious and Jesus called them a brood of vipers, straight to their faces. He told them they're white washed tombs with dead men's bones inside.
So, please try not to confuse Jesus with religion. He's one of the good guys. He's just gotten some really bad PR over the years. But here's the good news -- when he comes back he's gonna straighten it all out. Revelation 19:20-21. Revelation 21:4.
