Too busy to do much but these are great!

This site is similar in nature to Jon Swift's great site-but this is Jon Swift in overdrive! Funny! The Good Kentuckian.
I think I had found a link for The Good Kentuckian through Crooks and Liars, then found a link for Liberals Must Die. LiberalsMustDie.com Can't remember. I just know that both these blogs are pretty good!
Pretty funny stuff-and there are lots of posts to choose from! The tags alone are pretty funny.

*Don't forget to check out these two blog's links to more craziness!

We'll Do It Live!

I have decided that I am going to be blogging quite a bit less. (hell compared to some of you extra-prolifics out there-I was a non-existent blip on the blogging radar! I don't know how you guys do it!)We just began a new IEP-delivery format for my special needs students which is kinda involved and will take some time to get used to! I also am overloaded with my regular work stuff, and need to catch up. Staying up late, looking at blogs and trying to find stuff to post is screwing with my sleep too.
I will maybe come by and comment a little here and there, but probably extremely light posting. Whatever the hell that means!

Just watch the first 1:34 of this-the rest is...well, filler I guess!

Jon Swift's Best Blog Posts of 2008 CBTBT

Last year, I had the honor and pleasure of being asked to submit a post for Jon Swift's Best Blog Posts of 2007-Chosen By The Bloggers Themselves. Jon Swift: Best Blog Posts of 2007 (Chosen by the Bloggers Themselves) That post, Don't mess with the South/Phony phone conversations which had a clip of the Top Gear guys messing with some rednecks in some sort of crazy competition, and Eugene Mirman's recordings of his hilarious phone calls with telemarketers from a homophobic, evangelical Christian long distance company, (the original Top Gear clip was changed to a longer, actually better clip, and the Mirman Mp3's are now "video clips"*A guy named Johnxrox http://www.youtube.com/user/Johnxrox made the clips-he loves Eugene also! Check out his YT channel-it's cool!) got me a lot of attention! It was nice!
What was really cool was getting to see other posts from bloggers I had never heard of or who I had been meaning to read but hadn't gotten around to it! Some of the stuff that I read was some of the best blog reading I have seen in a long time! I guess that's why its called "The Best Blog Posts..!

Well, this year I have been asked to be in Jon's BBP again! Jon Swift: Best Blog Posts of 2008 (Chosen by the Bloggers Themselves) I would like to ask that even if you've already seen my post(s) about Jerome Corsi's stinkin' book/banishment from Kenya, that you please check out the other blogger's posts, which again promise to be outstanding! Please don't forget to check out Jon's post at the end of this year's feature!

I want to thank Jon Swift for again asking me to be a part of this! It must have been a lot of work to get all these posts together in his own inimitable fashion! Thanks again for all your hard work on this! You did a heckuva job!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I am going to do some heavy reading!

Some Oldies but Goodies... and maybe you hadn't seenies?

Back in June 2007 when I first started out on this blog experience, I had really wanted to start posting some of these hilarious cartoons I had seen on this really cool site called Camp Chaos Camp Chaos . When the time came around when I wanted to post them, the site was down, undergoing changes or something, and if I remember correctly, they had taken a few of the best 'toons down!

They had these 'toons drawn, written and animated by Bob Cesca, (who, by the way has a cool blog: Bob Cesca's Goddamn Awesome Blog! Go!) about the Metallica vs Napster controversy. (see: About Camp Chaos) Metallica-especially bandmembers Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield got ripped for their stance against Napster music downloading, and I, being a proponent of downloading (not with Napster specifically, but just the premise of the whole thing-ultra-rich rockstars complaining about a few high school and college kids downloading some of their stuff for free) was happy about that. I didn't like Metallica then at all so those clips were all the more funny. Those cartoons were probably some of the funniest shit I had ever seen! In fact, I don't know if I have seen many 'toons that funny since. You have to know who Lars Ulrich and James Hetfield are, their personas, and how they speak to really get it, although with the dialogue and the visuals alone, it's still pretty funny. Lar's eyes are crazy! You have to see the way those eyes and the way they move around, and those great voices!


I also hadn't been able to find this really funny Toby Keith clip, but I found that one too! See way down below! I think that clip has run into some trouble from either Toby Keith's legal team or maybe Cesca felt it was a little too inflammatory (for post-9/11 feelings) at the time-either way, believe me-that clip is hard to find!

Guess what!? I found some of those cartoons that were the funniest! Here are a few of them! I am posting a Lars Ulrich interview so you can get a "feel" for his mannerisms!
