Life Sucks then You Die
That pretty much sums up life itself.
In this case, the Fools walk you down that path.
A classic piece of pessimism…
True Enough…
Water and Commies
An absolutely stupendous scene from a superb movie.
Not just a superb movie either, one of the very best
flicks ever created, by Stanley Kubrick no less!
This scene alone is worth the price of admission.
Two of the greatest actors of all time with satire so
sharp it will give you paper cuts.
In short, Sterling Hayden, as General Jack Ripper,
goes crazy and takes it upon himself to send an
atomic bomb squadron to Russia.
Peter Sellers, as Captain Lionel Mandrake, tries to
stop him.
It does not go well.
This scene shows Ripper in the thralls of a complete
mental breakdown, with a crestfallen Sellers slowly
realizing that he is in a REALLY awful situation that
is about to get much worse!
Wonderful stuff, satire of a very high nature, as good
as it could possible get.
When you have a minute do a search on the two
pictured here, fascinating stuff…
Ripper was On to Something!
RIP Lex Luthor
A really funny bit by Tommy Ryman.
Some great lines here, he has his shtick down pat.
Good timing and a knack for story telling helps.
He’s pretty sure that’s what took out Europe…
Which is Essential if You’re Desiccated
Beer Run
A Todd Snider original.
From his live streams, pandemic affected, out
of his living room.
I have seen more livelier versions but this one
is not without its charms.
Has a homey vibe to it…
Doesn’t Really Help Much…
Slight Weapons Malfunction
This is a clever little piece from our friends
at Android Poultry.
Hans bluffs.
Vader bites.
The Death Star has a new reactor.
There’s always room for another one…
