Another “so bad that it’s good” moment, I love the karate chop at 0:22, proceeded by the double hand back punch (is there a name for that move?). William Shatner has some pretty impressive street skills, given that he did get his butt kicked by the dino-alien-space monster. Wait, did I just spoil it?
While watching the news last night, I was informed that Captain Phil Harris passed away due to complications from a stroke. For those of you that don’t know of Phil, he was the Captain of F/V Cornelia Marie, a crab boat featured on Discovery Channel’s Deadliest Catch. Being raised with a commercial fisherman (though I never got into it myself) a lot of my childhood was spent down at Fisherman’s Terminal in Seattle, where Phil’s boat was moored during the off season.
When we were finally able to sign up for satellite TV, Deadliest Catch became an instant hit in my household due to nostalgic reasons. Capt. Phil was one of our favorites. The guy was tough as nails, yet as sincere as one could imagine. I send my condolences to his sons (who were a part of the crew), family, friends and fans.
It appears that massive amounts of traffic on their website has crashed the database servers, though I’m sure they will be up and running before too long…it can be found here.
RIP Phil, you will be loved and remembered across the world.
I was going to hold off until his birthday later this month, but couldn’t wait. I’m sure a lot of you are familiar with Mitch Hedberg, but if not…you need to check him out. The guy was a comedic genius with a delivery like no one else. With that, I thought I’d share some of my favorite Mitch jokes. RIP Mitch, you were one of a kind.
I was at this casino minding my own business, and this guy came up to me and said, “You’re gonna have to move, you’re blocking a fire exit.” As though if there was a fire, I wasn’t gonna run. If you’re flammable and have legs, you are never blocking a fire exit.
Advil has a candy coating. It’s delicious. Then it says on the bottle, do not have more than two. Then why do they have a candy coating? I cannot help myself. Let me have ten Advil, I have a sweet tooth.
One time, this guy handed me a picture of him, he said,”Here’s a picture of me when I was younger.” Every picture of you is when you were younger.
A lot of times, I’ll drive for like 10 miles with the emergency brake on. That doesn’t say a lot for me, but it really doesn’t say a lot for the emergency brake.
Whenever I walk, people try to hand me out fliers, and when someone tries to hand me out a flier, it’s kinda like they’re saying, “Here, you throw this away.”
I was walking by a dry cleaner at 3 a.m., and it said “Sorry, we’re closed.” You don’t have to be sorry. It’s 3 a.m., and you’re a dry cleaner. It would be ridiculous for me to expect you to be open. I’m not gonna walk by at ten and say, “Hey, I walked by at three, you guys were closed. Someone owes me an apology.
This product that was on TV was available for four easy payments of $19.95. I would like a product that was available for three easy payments and one complicated payment. We can’t tell you which payment it is, but one of these payments is going to be hard.
You know, I’m sick of following my dreams, man. I’m just going to ask where they’re going and hook up with ‘em later.
When you go to a bar that has a black light, everybody looks cool. Except for me, because I was under the impression that the mustard stain came out.
I wish I could play little league now, I’d kick some ass.
I’m against picketing, but I don’t know how to show it.
I used to do drugs. I still do, but I used to, too.
I find that a duck’s opinion of me is influenced by whether or not I have bread.
This shirt is dry clean only. Which means…it’s dirty.
