QUICK JOKE One day a blonde was tired of everyone calling her dumb so she decided to hang herself. So she went into the woods and hung herself on a tree. Two guys passed by and saw her hanging from her wrists and they asked her "Why are you hanging from your wrists?" and she said... "I tried to hang myself by me neck but I couldn't breath."

Dear Dana, Indeed ghosts are scary. You know what else is scary? Dying alone.
Love,
BELIEVE IT OR LEAVE IT All right, I finally did it. After months and months of saying I would, I took that bold step foreword and acted on a dream that I've had for a very long time. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I finally visited the Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum and the Palace of Wax. This is the wild life I lead. Try and keep up. Seriously, though, this kind of weird shit intrigues me and I had a good time when I went with a school trip back in in the day, so I thought what the hell? Make a go of it again and have a good time.
The best part of the wax museum is that they have this huge wing devoted to horror and disturbing things. I'm not saying THAT'S the best part, no my friends, the best part is that they have an inconspicuous window you can put your face in, act like you're a lifeless wax head, and then scare the absolute bubbling shit out of people who walk by. I made a ten year old girl cry. I've never been more proud. The Believe it or Not Museum is actually a pretty severe disappointment. Lots of weirdness to be sure, but it feels short and cheap. You'd think they could have put more oddities in there what with it being in Texas and everything. Meh. I had a good time. It's not exactly something I would buy season passes for, but I had a good time anyway. AMERICAN IDOL RECAP

Until next week, Earth. QUICK JOKE Why don't blind men go bungee jumping? - It scares the shit out of their dogs.

QUICK JOKE IV The first man approached him and said, "Sir, I don't want to interfere with your private grief, but this demonstration of hurt and pain is more than I've ever seen before. For whom do you mourn so deeply? Your Child? A parent? Who, may I ask, lies in that grave?" The mourner answered, "My wife's first husband! ... Why did you die? Why did you die?"

Dear Justin, Well, Justin, while I am not a girl and don't really want to chat, I can assure you that slightlywarped.com is the perfect place to meet women. What, with our large supply of science fiction satire, superhero parodies, and collection of ghost photos, we... Actually, you're fucked. Sorry.
Love,
EASTER SNOW So talk about an unusual Easter weekend, let me tell you about mine. We go out to a cabin on the lake in West Texas situated on Lake Colorado City. I pack shorts, T-Shirt, and sandals anticipating a nice weekend lounging around and doing next to nothing. We spend the night there, get up the next morning, and we’re in a snowstorm. How the HELL does a blizzard happen in West Texas in the middle of April? My dad used it as an example of why there’s no such thing as global warming. Conservative fucktard. Anyway, I’m not going to spend time writing about it, but rather just share this video I took with my cell phone (I have better stuff on my phone, but they’re too big to send via e-mail and I don’t have the stuff to connect the phone to the computer). Some stuff you’ve just got to share. And yes, I realize how very gay I sound.
AMERICAN IDOL RECAP Melinda Doolittle – “Sway” I love this woman, she is still leagues and lightyears beyond any of the others on the show, but I feel that in this performance (which is one of my favorite songs, by the way) she came off as a little too old and mature. I’m not saying that there’s anything wrong with that, but in a contest where someone like Vagina Makalar gets voted through every week because he’s dreamy and girl-like and who cares that he can’t sing worth a shit? I’m afraid that AI’s target audience will be bored. I myself found it tedious and dull. Wasn’t wowed by it in the least bit. Perhaps I’m being rough on her, but I’ve just come to expect more from her. LaKisha Jones – “Conga Beat” Again, I wasn’t blown away by this performance but I did enjoy it. It was a latin song with a bit of LaKisha’s soul and, yes, it did sound weird and off, but I did enjoy it. I would have liked to have seen LaKisha cut loose and really take ownership of the song, but all in all not bad. You can actually see that a lot of these singers are way out of their comfort zones tonight. Piss “Timber-fake” Bitcherson – “Smooth” Wow… I’ve never been a fan of Timber-fake, but this was just awful. From the beginning he tripped up and then never recovered. In addition to ruining and trying to boy-bandify a really awesome song, he single-handedly returned the complete suck to American Idol even when Vagina was starting to improve. This was awful, it was out of tune, it was pitchy, and it should be his last performance of the show. Are the judges deaf? Did they actually like this pile of manure? It wasn’t sexy, it was nasally, it was just really, really bad! No more Timber-fake! Helly Scarnato – “Turn the Beat Around” What a shock. It seems like every week this attention whore’s skirt gets shorter and shorter. I’ve been saying for a while that Helly is a pathetic contestant milking her sex appeal for all she can and hoping like hell that it masks the fact that she can’t sing, but this week my mind hasn’t changed. She was so bad that she actually made her background singers sound out of tune. She tried to be fun, but she was just bad. Her singing was out of tune, off kilter, and almost repulsive in a way. Hated it and, girl? Your makeup makes you look like a prostitute. Phil Mistakey – “Maria Maria” Not terrible, but again very boring and forgettable and as unpopular as Phil has been as of late, that could be a bad combination for him. I enjoy him when he hits high notes and I think that if he stayed there he would do fine, but I was very put off by it. What an awful theme show. Tonight is about to put me in a coma. Jordin Sparks – “The Rhythm is Gonna Get You” Finally, someone brings it tonight. Jordin is quickly becoming a contender and I do mean a serious contender. With time, she could prove to be the upset in this competition. I enjoyed this performance a whole heck of a lot. Blake Lewis – “I Need to Know” Just when I think that the night is a wash, Blake comes out (on stage) and rocks the place. I don’t think that the song was quite as hot as it should have been, but Blake is an entertainer and a fun one at that. He works well with what he chooses and, best of all, he doesn’t try to boy bandify the damn song. If any guy has a chance in hell of winning this year, it’s him. Vagina Makalar – “Beseme Mucho” I’ve got to hand it to Vagina, the guy is a chameleon and perhaps that’s part of his indescribable appeal. You never quite know what this little freak is going to look like week to week. I mean, for goodness sake, he actually looked Latin this week! It’s amazing. Does he suck? Mucho. Can he hold a note? No, senior. Does he deserve to be in this competition? Aye carumba! Uh-uh. Was it the worst performance? Uh… actually no. I’ve said that Vagina seems to be improving every week and, he has gone from horrible to just plain bad. Who knows… given time perhaps he might actually become the best singer on American Idol (if the contest lasts until 2019 that is). Great
Jordin Sparks – “The Rhythm is Gonna Get
You” Good
LaKisha Jones – “Conga Beat” Bad
Phil Mistakey – “Maria Maria” Horrible
Helly Scarnato – “Turn the Beat Around” Who should go home: For once, I’m going with someone new: Piss “Timber-fake” Bitcherson. Worst performance of the night, worst performance of the show in a long time.
Who will go home: This is a little
more uncertain. Piss was worst, Helly was a close second but as for
their go home-ability, it’s a toss up. Eh… given that Timber-fake has
that boy band shit going for him that all the little girls seem to go
ga-ga over, I’ll just say that this is finally Helly’s week to go
away and never return. Bye-bye Slutty McPoopypants.

QUICK JOKE
Older Woman: Is there a problem, Officer?
QUICK JOKE II
QUICK JOKE III God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish. The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman. He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate, awakened the kids, set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed their lunches, drove them to school, came home and picked up the dry cleaning, took it to the cleaners and stopped at the bank to make a deposit, went grocery shopping, then drove home to put away the groceries, paid the bills and balanced the checkbook. He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog. Then it was already 1 P.M. and he hurried to make the beds, do the laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor. Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with them on the way home. Set out milk and cookies and got the kids organized to do their homework, then set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the ironing. At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing vegetables for salad, breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper. After supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the kids, and put them to bed. At 9 P.M. he was exhausted and, though his daily chores weren't finished, he went to bed where he was expected to make love, which he managed to get through without complaint. The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said: Lord, I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my wife's being able to stay home all day. Please, oh please, let us trade back." The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied: "My son, I feel you have learned your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the way they were." You'll just have to wait nine months, though. You got pregnant last night.""
GOT JOKE?
Dear greer8ikt, At least your letter makes more sense than the research papers I just got through grading.
Love,
IMUS God forbid the day that I come to Don Imus' side, but here it is. This whole incident about him calling the Rutger's team "nappy headed ho's?" It's overblown and stupid. Don Imus is a shock jock that means, ladies and gentlemen, that his job is to get on national radio and say offensive and shocking things. He's not a school teacher, he's not a church deacon, and he'd not an elected official! I don't know if you've watched an episode of South Park, Drawn Together, or Family Guy here lately, but dammit... saying mildly racist things is a way of being shocking. Don't fucking fire the man because he was doing his job! Secondly, you want to fire Imus for saying "nappy headed ho's?" That's just great. The self-appointed presidents of all black people, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, need to go after hip hop and rappers next. Get on them for calling black women bitches and ho's. Get on them for degrading and defaming black women. Or is it okay to defame and degrade if you're a black guy? If you're a white guy and you say something offensive to someone of color, apparently your first amendment rights mean shit... but if you're a black guy you've got free reign to use any and all racial and sexist slurs you want. If Jesse and Al want to be true leaders, let's see a little equality in the people they go after. Thirdly, if Al and Jesse truly want to be the pantheon of righteousness that their moniker of "reverend" lends itself to, why isn't Imus' apology enough? Why do they continue to crusade and bitch when he's already said that he's sorry... and the people he's apologized to have accepted it and forgive him. Why is it such a big fucking deal anymore? They are flogging this thing for their own agenda. Nothing more. Fourthly, CBS needs to cut the shit about them firing Imus because they objected to his show. He's only been offending people for thirty years now, don't stand up and shout out, "We're not going to take this anymore" on moral grounds. You fired him because you wanted to placate sponsors. If the sponsors didn't want to leave, you wouldn't have done a thing and you fucking well know it. Don't give me this "moral grounds" shit. You're CBS and you HAVE no moral grounds. I'm no fan of Don Imus. I think him and other shock jocks are stupid, but I know a witch-hunt when I see one, I can smell when some morally uptight group wants to curb free speech because they don't like what's being said, and I can taste the racism in this whole debacle. That's right, kids, racism. It's never been exclusively a white thing and when one group claims that another can't say something about them that they don't like while allowing others in their own group free reign to say worse things, it's goddamned racist. Sorry, kids, but hearing shit you don't like to hear is one of the prices we pay for living in a society that has the glorious freedom of the First Amendment. If you don't like it, move to another country and stop trying to take this precious freedom from everyone else. And Imus... when you get on Sirrius or XM, don't you fucking puss out. You know you're wanting to say this shit too and I expect you to follow through! AMERICAN IDOL RECAP Phil Mistakey Another surprising turn for Phil as he picks a great song and nails it. I mean he fucking nailed it. No doubt about it, children, country is Phil's domain and if he didn't know it before, he sure as hell should know it now. Jordin Sparks Dizzam! Another home run power ballad and probably the best performance she's done all season. I've always beleived that Jordin might be the upset winner in this competition and after tonight, I'm almost ready to called Melinda the upset winner. Bravo, baby. Bravo. Please pick your pelvis up off the stage when you leave. Vagina Makalar All I can say is that it's about goddamned time that Simon grew a nutsack and slammed both Sanjaya and all the idiots who keep voting him through every week. As usual, this performance was terrible, pitchy, and all around ridiculous. In the American Idol circus, Sanjaya is the freakshow and I can only pray that this is the final week we see this flaming idiot boy. LaKisha Jones Ouch. LaKisha's always been one of my favorites, but I'm afraid that this performance might have cost her dearly. Not only was it a bad choice for her, but she was practically screaming the final bars of it and not in a good way. Worst LaKisha performance of the season. Piss "Timberfake" Bitcherson And, amazingly, we have the worst of the show. Nasally, pitchy, and boy-bandish (and to boy bandify Rascal Flatts is a feat in of itself). His comment to Simon that the performance was "supposed to be nasally" and that being nasal is just another style of singing was the icing on the cake of ridiculousness. No, Timber-fake, being nasal is not another style of singing. Saying that it being nasal is another form of singing is like saying that crashing is just another form of landing. His egotistical and stuck up smug response and the hollow shout out to Virginia Tech that followed lost him some serious personality points with me. It's time to vote this smug little shithead off now! Melinda Doolittle Spot on perfect. I love this girl, I love her singing and once all of the festering crap gets voted out of this show it's going to be a hell of a showdown between her and the other worthy talents. I am glad that Simon called her on acting shocked when she got a compliment because it was starting to wear thin. Blake Lewis Another perfect song choice. I loved it. This is the only guy in the competition who has been consistent and delivered a broad variety of ranges. He's the dark horse on the American Idol stage and I would not be completely shocked if he went on to win it. Great
Jordin Sparks Good Phil Mistakey Bad LaKisha Jones Horrible
Vagina Makalar Bottom Three: Phil, LaKisha, and Piss Bitchardson. Vagina deserves to be in there, but I doubt this will be his week. Who should go home: Timber-fake. Awful performance from beginning to end, sad excuses for sucking when the judges called him out, and a pathetic grab for vote referencing the Virginia Tech shootings. What an asshole.
Who will go home: I have a gut
feeling that it's Phil's week to be let go. He was great this
week, did a good job, and deserves to stay in, but he was eclipsed by
almost everyone else and I don't think he has the fan base to sustain
himself. If not Phil, I have the sinking feeling that LaKisha will
be the one to leave. Bottom line, I'm still pulling for that smug
little Timber-fake to be the one with Seacreast's boot print on his
butt.
That's it for me. Bite me I'm done.
