Links ahoy ...

Starz Network is promoting "Gigli" as the awful film it is. And it has to be said that the director of programming at Starz has an admirable sense of humor. :)

The newest reality show is like watching paint dry. No, really.

A man in Zambia committed suicide after his wife caught him having sex with a hen. You know, there's a "Why did the chicken cross the road?" joke in there, but I don't really want to think about it.

Bozo's getting into the Clown Hall of Fame! Yay! Okay, I admit it. The only reason I link to this is because that accompanying photo is just about the creepiest clown photo this side of Pennywise. Sheesh.

And to offset the creepy clown photo, look! A baby hippo!

It's okay. You can stop now. And I wouldn't be complaining so much, but that all-our-kids-have-the-same-initial bit is bad enough with two or three kids. With fifteen, it's close to competing for the Creepy Prize with that clown photo. Urgh.

Also, from Jay Leno ... ""Al Gore called for the resignation of the entire Bush cabinet, including Rumsfeld, Condoleezza Rice, and CIA director George Tenet, said they should all step down. President Bush, he was furious, boy, he said to Al Gore today, he said 'Hey, who elected YOU president.'" *snerk*

There's a Clown Hall of Fame?

I must keep my eye on "Watching Paint Dry." It deserves a fansite.

I don't want to think about the hen. I can't seem to stop, but I don't want to.

How creepy is the constantly-birthin' mom and her humongous J-entitled brood? VERY creepy! Sounds like somebody's body is telling her enough is too much, but the brain ain't listening.

This is probably unfair of me, but much you want to bet her home-schooled kids are learning stuff like the world was created by God about 6,000 years ago?

Fifteen kids with "J" names sound creepy. I suppose they will keep coming intil parents can think of a new name that begins with "J".

A baby hippo makes up for that, though. Too cute.

I would lay money on the creepy J people being quiverfull. What scares me is that these people at some point affected public policy.

It's terribly fair of you. I doubt there's much learning of any sort. How they'll pass their graduation tests and how any of them will ever get into school is beyond me. And since they have 15 (likely more) kids on one income college is going to be partly covered by finanical aide.

Okay, I have a scarier clown for you (though it's technically not a photo). www.weebl.jolt.co.uk/clowns.htm It scares me even though I know what to expect.
In order to understand the bit of this that is not clown-centric, you may need to go to www.weebl.jolt.co.uk/archives.php and start at the bottom. Unless you know of Wobbl and Bob, in which case don't bother, even though MTV have misnames Weebl. Honestly *throws hands up theatrically*

lso, from Jay Leno ... ""Al Gore called for the resignation of the entire Bush cabinet, including Rumsfeld, Condoleezza Rice, and CIA director George Tenet, said they should all step down. President Bush, he was furious, boy, he said to Al Gore today, he said 'Hey, who elected YOU president.'"

That reminds me of the Election 2004 No CARB diet:
-no Cheney
-no Ashcroft
-no Rumsfield
-no Bush
-and hold the Rice

*Recalls the South Park episode "Chickenlover"* Dude, how do you have sex with a chicken?!?

[identity profile] muffytaj.livejournal.com 2004-05-30 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
So the sex with the chicken didn't actually kill it? Interesting...interesting... *makes notes for fiction*

But what I find sad is that they killed the chicken. Poor thing, having been abused it was killed needlessly! Cause, I mean, who the hell would eat it?
