When all else fails-try using immature pranks and farting

Update: Hey friends-I was Googling something about Glenn Beck, when I came across a really great blog with a really funny, wish-I had-thought-of that-one-for-my-blog-name: New World Odor(!) New World Odor This blog is done by a cool guy named Paul Sonderman. Please check it out for all things informative, humorous and of course, progressive...uhhm...but not that fascist kind of progressive, Glenn!

Just happened to come across these while making my usual rounds within Youtube. Yes these are silly, teenaged (hell, maybe even less than teenaged!)pranks and jokes, but dammit they're pretty funny when you've just had a s#%# week, and its WEEKEND TIME!
These two videos are from the collection of pranks and jokes on the Youtube channel-http://www.youtube.com/user/edbassmaster These guys have a huge collection of silly pranks like hidden camera pranks, including prank calls, parodies, and stuff like these two videos.

Pranks like this are something I have always wanted to do but have not. Why? Because my wife would probably pinch the hell out me and give me hell for doing it, and we are ordering food, so...I don't want anything to be...uhmm added to that food. I have asked for a large pizza at McDonalds and ordered a competitor's burger at these joints but no more than that!




Ok-I know this is gross, but the reactions on the people's faces are funny, and hey-it's a human condition alright!? These aren't even real. It's some kinda fart machine or something.

Sarah Palin gets Pranked!

Whoa! I just came across this-a prank call to Sarah Palin from Quebec prankster duo the "Masked Avengers"-Marc-Antoine Audette and Sébastien Trudel, posing as Nicolas Sarkozy! I just had to post this! After initially thinking it wasn't true, I found it is a "real prank." Some people may say this is "mean" but I think beneath that "folksy charm," Mrs. Palin has been down and dirty with the smears and distortions on the campaign trail also.

"Governor Palin was mildly amused to learn that she had joined the ranks of heads of state, including President Sarkozy and other celebrities, in being targeted by these pranksters. C'est la vie," she said.

I'm Blogging against "information" abuse. I'm also blogging for funny videos

Ok -I was asked by Angelda Vinci http://www.blogcatalog.com/user/AngeldaVinci to post a topic against abuse- which could be any type of abuse- http://www.blogcatalog.com/discuss/entry/you-can-be-a-part-of-blogging-history .
I chose "information abuse"-the abuse by the predominant news media sources such as the major network news corporations and the print media that attempt to skew and slant the news, and misinform those citizens which it professes to serve.
By and large, the Internet and blogging in particular has helped to quell some of the misinformation, bias, and outright lying that has gone on for quite some time now that the Bush administration has fostered that kind of reportage-(see Fox News, Jeff Gannon, Armstrong Williams, etc etc.)
People have turned to each other for diversity in opinion and news that does not have the slant favoring the rich and powerful. There are a couple of institutions that have worked to work for truth in news reporting while examining the subterfuge that our big news corporations and their mouthpieces spew.
FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting) http://www.fair.org/index.php is one of those great organizations-operating on a shoestring budget, they do the best they can to examine the news for bias and misinformation. I am proud to say that I have been a subscriber to their little magazine Extra! for over 10 years now. I also try to listen to CounterSpin http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=5 their weekly radio show, whenever I can.
Another great anti bias, pro-truth organization that is online is MediaMatters For America http://mediamatters.org/. I really like this site and try to check out the clips and articles at least once a week.

I am also blogging for funny clips. This guy Jake Byrd is a prankster that has been seen on the news a lot lately. I had featured a clip of him for the Paris Hilton lawyer's press conference a while back c3fun.blogspot.com/2007/06/hey-guys-hope-you-all-had-great-weekend.html but this clip is too much! Here he is at the OJ lawyer's press conference. Nabbed this from TallFreak http://www.tallfreak.com/ (hey Chris- thanks for another great link!)
