Happy Endings

It is crushing that this hilarious show was canceled. Bishop and I binge watched it a few New Year's Eves back and I've been hooked ever since. Once cold weather hits, I drag out my DVD copies and relive the laughter all over again. I can say without fear of contradiction that this show was totally, ah-mahzing. (Yeah, that's right. I said it.) Oh, why must all good things come to an end...

Sound Of The Atom Splitting.

Here's one of Bishop's mixes, most likely from the late 1990s. Back in the day...

A Made Man

Is it just me or does Bud look like a young gangster in this photo? All he needs is a newly healed broken nose...

The Great Dictator

It is truly astonishing and shocking that this film was made in 1940. Before Pearl Harbor and before the we all learned just what kind of evil Hitler was unleashing on the world. Chaplin was an absolute genius. Not my favourite person, nor even my favourite filmmaker, but this beautiful film never ceases to amaze me with its honesty, its warmth, its hope and of course, its humour. Because my God, this is one hilarious damn picture. The names! Oh my goodness, the names are the funniest bit, in my opinion. The Fuhrer is the Phooey, Adolf Hitler is Adenoid Hynkel, Hermann Göring is Herring, Mussolini is Benzino Napaloni the Dictator of Bacteria (Bacteria!! Love it!), but the best one by far is Goebbels - Garbitsch. I cry everytime I hear the name. It is that hilarious.

The Happy Newlyweds

I don't think a groom existed that loved his bride more than Grandad Tom adored Nana Irma.
