Developing: Sean Hannity's adventures in Waterworld

The problem with never watching Fox News is that you occassionally miss out on some really quality ridiculousness, like this clip, in which Sean Hannity offers to be waterboarded "for charity". Hmmm.



Wow, Charles Grodin is a total ballbreaker! Good for him! I guess I should've known, what with how he beat down that evil veterinarian in Beethoven and all. But Grodin's ballsiness aside, the real story here is Sean Hannity's faux-offer to be waterboarded. I'm going to go ahead and assume he wouldn't really do it, since Keith Olbermann immediately offered him $1,000 a second to go through with it and that was six days ago, but I'm glad this was caught on tape. Hopefully this story will get enough coverage that Hannity is forced to either apologize or at least participate in some sort of dunk tank. I've heard they melt if they get wet.

When MSNBC makes dick jokes, it sounds intellectual

But when I do it, it's immature? Unfair. Anyway, this video of MSNBC's David Shuster is freaking hilarious. Pay close attention; these are some of the best teabagging-related double entendres ever made on cable news:



Ahahaha. That last line is classic. I'm very impressed with MSNBC and Countdown; I thought the burden of making these obvious jokes would inevitably fall on Comedy Central and The Daily Show. Kudos to MSNBC execs for having a sense of humor!

God wants to be more like Diddy

I gotta give props to the NYT for bringing this eclesi-tastic bit of news to my attention: God is now on Twitter! He must have heard about all the good PR tweeting has been generating for Diddy, and I guess God was all, "well if Diddy can do it..." A snippet of the tweetslation of the Stations of the Cross:

via @Mary_Mother_Of: They sealed his tomb at dusk. The stone stands between us, and I can’t leave. I am an old woman now, lost in the dark.22 minutes ago from GroupTweet

via @romanguard1: I've got dibs on his robe, but if you guys want to cast lots for the rest of his clothes I'm cool with that.36 minutes ago from GroupTweet

I always suspected the Roman guards were chiller than they were portrayed in the Bible. They didn't want to betray you, J, but they gots to get paid. You feel me?

The blogosphere finally embraces me

Last night I had an "OMGOMGOMG" moment when I googled myself and discovered my very own name on somebody else's blog. I was even tagged! I am now a tag. Wow. I, I just, I feel so much... love right now.

Yes We Carve

The author references my pumpkin submission to YesWeCarve.com, which as you may recall I also mentioned here, on my blog. So this means that somebody else blogged on their blog about a blog post that I also blogged about on my blog. Woah. Bloooogggggg.

Ouch-choo

The NY Daily News reports today on Prax Sanchez, a 72-year old Colorado resident who recently discovered that he had a one-inch long nail lodged in his sinus cavity. Said nail had been chilling up there for upwards of 30 years without Sanchez's knowledge, and it was only dislodged after a painful MRI and what I expect was a stronger-than-usual cough.

In itself, this story isn't too interesting. I'm sure there's tons of shit lodged in most of us that we don't know about. Thankfully, the diligent reporters over at the NYDN took the time to investigate this growing phenomenon and compile a wonderful slideshow of 27 (!) other freaky things lodged in people's noses/throats/body cavities/you can only imagine where else. Not for the faint of heart.
