We’re Your Firing Squad

The BBC Television series, The Blackadder, was a tremendous example
of what great writers and actors can accomplish.
I cannot say enough about Rowan Atkinson’s contribution to the show.
He is one heck of a comedian, I am very impressed with what he has
done over the years, this series at the top of that pile for sure.
This scene is a good example of what you’d find when watching same…


Sonna a Formato

A John Pinette Classic bit off of his first recording, Show Me the Buffet.
I was so wrong in my initial assessment of John Pinette when he first
came out, I was convinced he was a One Hit Wonder.
He based nearly all of his material on overeating, dieting, or exercise.
He cannot possibly last, I thought to myself.
I was wrong, and I’m glad that I was.
He passed away a few years ago, by then I was a huge fan.
Trying to keep his talent alive, this is a lively one.
A couple of naughty words, lock Grandma in the attic and give
her something to play with, just in case…

The Whale

A slice of great interest from the 2005 Douglas Adams classic flick
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
There’s a lot of absolutely grand British humor in this movie, and it
makes it a good time had by all.
A lesson in physics…

My Dad

Cy Amundson with a classic piece of hilarity centered around
pranking his dad.
He’s one of the best stand-up comedians out there, very much
skilled in the fine art of story telling, with really good visuals.
Always a pleasure to play on the show…
