Inside we're all the same

This was playing on the TV at the hotel I stayed at in Stillwater last weekend. This poor donkey gets thrown down a well, and then sings a song that sounds a lot like something the Eurythmics would come up with.
Watch from 2:06 to 5:58. it will change your life.

Believe me when I say, "I f*%ked a mermaid"

This was on Saturday Night Live last week, and it's probably the best use of T-Pain I've heard ever. BTW, this HULU version is edited, but you should watch the PA version here on YouTube.

Joke Bands

If we're connected on Facebook, then you may already know that there is something christmas related called Jus' Friendz that I'm involved with. It isn't really a group, or it wasn't supposed to be. I was at work one day a couple months ago when my co-worker Alison was saying she wanted to be in a band, but no one would be in a band with her. So I said, "I'll be in your band", to which she replied, "Well I don't know how to play anything", and I said, "that's cool, neither do i". So we talked about it for about one more minute before deciding that our best option would be to start an accapella group, one that sings xmas carols, and that's how Jus' Friendz came to be. We thought the first thing we should work on was our image, so we dressed up, drove to Target, and took some pictures (above). Fast forward a month later, Jus' Friendz gets asked to be part of a Joke Band night at the Turf Club, and we accepted. With the holidays behind us, we decided to focus on what we know best, Friendship. We wrote up some between song stage banter, and backed by karaoke tracks we performed some songs to go along with the theme. Some City Pages people were there, which resulted in a fun little write up on a City Pages blog. Here is the review of our 15 minutes (literally).

Jus Friends- A sappy duo of bffs singing songs about what else but friendship. The guy was a total reminder of Napoleon Dynamite's brother Kip, both in looks and nerdy personality. While he was introducing a song, an audience member yelled "shut up, you suck." Instead of getting angry, he told 'Bill' to "hit it" as he promised to "touch your heart a little." The friends sang "I'll Be There", Fievel Goes West tune "Somewhere Out There" and the Family Ties theme song "Without Us."

Just Farr A Laugh

Bleachy Loves .99 Cent Big Bufords. He can't help it.

So I just picked up a promo copy of Earles and Jensen Present: Just Farr A Laugh Vols. 1 & 2 - The Greatest Prank Calls Ever! and if you dig the "get a laughs", then it's worth the listen.

I have no idea who Andrew Earles and Jeffrey Jensen are, but from what I've just heard, I gather these two are really into creating hilarious characters, and sticking with them to the point were they probably forget they're acting. Though they're not mean spirited assholes like the Jerky Boys, and they don't mock or offend their recipients like Borat. In fact, the person on the other end is usually the one laughing.

If you've ever worked a job where you've had to deal with strange phone calls from random customers, then you should appreciate what these guys are doing.

Here are some calls from Bleachy

Major Drug Bust In Maplewood

My Dawgs!

I just want to say that it was great getting to see Ryan, Josh over the last few weeks, and even Kyle for a few days. You guys are my best friends, and I love it when the whole crew is together. Maybe we can start planning a big group trip to Tokyo. You know, get Me, Derek, Matt, Ned, Keith, and the Marks to make the trip all at the same time, and we'll get some bunk beds for Ryan's place.
