Oh the Humanity!

I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

"I like Rickrolling!"

Millions of viewers were Rickrolled today by Macys.

Happy Thanksgiving!

This is the entire "Turkeys Away!" episode of WKRP in Cincinnati. It is a must see this time of year. In the past I have only posted a short clip, but came across this a few days ago.

Unfortunately, readers from outside North America won't be able to view this. If you are not in North America, head on over to my brother's place, where you can view a clip with the best parts of the show.

This is all kinds of awesome!

Happy Halloween, Y'all.

Stephen Fry does Kentucky

Stephen Fry, the British actor and television host, has a current TV series in which he travels throughout the United States. The series is described as such:

The brilliant, lovely, witty, kind, warm-hearted and delicious Stephen Fry drives through America with his black English taxicab visiting every state fighting the ignorance and misconceptions outsiders might have about The United States Of America. To really get to know "the Americans", as it were, we have to explore the people, culture, landscapes and activities state by state, for there are some great differences.

In this episode, he visits Kentucky. Central Kentucky specifically.

The young man who he interviews, Griffin Van Meter, is an acquaintance of ours. We never knew he had a tattoo, though.

Check out the part where Fry visits the Woodford Reserve Distillery. It's a hoot.

I really wish this series would be shown on BBC America. All we ever see there anymore is crappy reality programming for the most part.

I almost titled this "I am not a number, I am a free man. "

Happy Thanksgiving

Nigella Lawson is coming to the Food Network! Following several years on the Style Network, her new show, Nigella Feasts will debut October 1st.

I have no idea why the Food Network didn't sign her way back when, but they didn't, and her show Nigella Bites wound up on Style. I don't think there were more than a half dozen episodes of the show that went into perpetual reruns on that network. It still airs there, at 7 in the morning, despite beginning as a prime time show.

The Food Network has already scheduled 13 episodes of the new show, which will air at 1 p.m. A new episode will premier once a week, with frequent reruns during the week.

In Which Allan Shows You His Fuzzy Balls

These are what I bought at Michael's a couple of weeks ago solely for the purpose of photographing them.

When I posted the photo on an Internet message board I frequent, I received lots of comments about my fuzzy balls.

The best description I heard of them, though, was that they looked like multi-colored tribbles.

In any case, here they are. I hope they brighten your day as much as they do mine.
