Tom, Dick and Harry

A brilliant piece of comedy by the master himself.
This guy is so talented he makes it look easy.
A lot of folks shy away from Rowan Atkinson
because of Mr. Bean, and I get that.
I was not a huge fan of Bean myself, I respected it
but you can only do so much with a character
that does not really speak, body language was
the majority of the laughs.
Not taking anything away from Rowan at all, his
use of mannerisms and body language is as good
as it gets, top shelf stuff.
Most people want a bit more for the money though
and witty dialogue is where it’s at.
Having said that, this indeed a witty piece by any
standard…


Frontier Psychiatrist

The Avalanches certainly do tickle me the right way.
They are a very eclectic bunch of talented musicians
that possess a sweet sense of humor.
Even when I don’t particularly care for the tune I
find that I really like the video, and vice-versa.
One of Australia’s best Electronic Music Groups,
they have a way of finding something you’ll like.
This has samples from the John Water’s flick Polyester
as well as some old Wayne and Shuster comedy bits
with a modicum of other voice quotes from various
sources of interest.
Gotta love that video…



Airbags

Tim Young has something to say about those large
puffy things that explode in your face when the
jerk in the car in front of you stops really fast
forcing you to run into him.
The way he states it is much funnier.
I remember growing up when we didn’t have
seat belts in the vehicle, never mind the overly
sophisticated over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder
harness set-ups that most cars have in them now.
I can remember hitting the solid metal dashboard
at speeds well over 70MPH several times when I
was a weeeee lad, and there’s nothing wrong with me.
With me…
With me…
With me…
With me…
