No dice. You’ll have to settle for a very young Chris Rock.
Stimpy
Of course, here is a short version… http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/f02d0b8cca
The longer version is on DVD at Amazon, alas.
Notorious P.A.T.

Hi John, it made me laugh just to think about it. Thanks to Stimpy and Notorious for the links.
skippy
how about some old school comedy: sid ceasar and nanette fabray argue to beethoven’s 5th.

Oh, thankyou Hulu. My mom, who hated Ronnie more than anyone, choked on this one and fell off the couch:
Reagan the Mastermind

Life imitates art: a Santa Clara man is barred from Olympic competition in synchronized swimming.

These links are great.
I am such a loser. Levelling a horde warrior and watching youtube while fighting the cat for control of my computer mouse. Does it get better than that?

RIP Phil. One of the only actors I’ve ever been sad to see go.

Absolutely fantastic!
Thanks for posting that. You have to love the internet if only for its innate ability to archive arcana.

Not always, dude. Not always.
I spent Easter weekend trying to shepherd a Really Large Process through to completion. That is the ne plue ultra of loserosity.

= Best skit EVAH

This won’t cheer anybody up, but it looks like it’s something not to be missed.
Tonight and tomorrow night on PBS/Frontline:
Bush’s War

Oh, hell no, Zuzu. I can’t watch that PBS stuff anymore. My blood pressure just goes through the roof. I know how awful the war is, I don’t need to watch it again. Plus, the idiots are trying to start another one just up the road a bit in Iran.
It’s also true that I still have 58 of 61 blue book exams left to grade. And I promised that I’d have them back tomorrow. So there’s that excuse, too.

Yeah usually my cat shoved her ass in my face while she thinks about maybe thinking about lying down on my mouse hand. Of course this happens right when I get two adds.
FYI. Phil Hartman was a genius, and News Radio was one of the best shows ever.

Mr Cole, your Pittsburg Steelers are a classy bunch… they can’t win football games, but they can beat their girlfriends.

I really didn’t know who Harry Shearer was until 2 or 3 years ago, so thats interesting to learn that was him in that skit. I just recall Martin Short and someone else.
A classic.

Ya got something against Horde warriors? Go prot spec & you’ll never be short of invites.

Not in any manner of measurement.
Well, unless you roll a Shaman, then it’s better by default.

Why in the world would you want to play a warrior?

Are you moving over to Warhammer when it comes out? I’m not sure how much you enjoy the PvP…
We need more MMORPG threads, the election is getting me down.

Dude, shaman suck now.

John, not sure if this will cheer you up, but it might be a good topic for a post: GOP State Party Orgs Near Collapse I’ll bet that as conservative who left the Republican Party because it was hijacked by yahoos, you and other sane cons would have a LOT to say about this, and much of it being stuff that former Republicans would understand the best.
And there’s also the percieved “honesty gap” between Hillary and McCain and Obama. Bet you’d have a lot to say about that as well!

With the 4000th american to die in this insane war, and this is your thought for the day? You are making me think you are jumping the shark with this bog

I tell you that I’m looking forward eagerly to the next Star Wars RPG. I know, I know — I’m a loser. But the physics just sounds so cool. And the idea of being forced to play an antihero is pretty compelling…
Krista
Dude, you were the one giving me advice on playing horde, and now you’re saying you’re a loser? Are you trying to drag me down with you or something?
over_educated
dem – Is that the next in the KOTOR series? FYI I heard that a KOTOR MMORPG is in development.
demimondian
No — there’s a single player RPG set between the trilogy that sucks and the decent trilogy where you get to play as Darth Vader’s apprentice.
tBone
I assume you’re talking about the Force Unleashed? It’s an action game with some minor RPG elements, not a full-fledged RPG. And apparently the physics engine can lead to some interesting scenarios.
