MacGuyver Movie?

Alright!

A discussion of the show and the possibility of a movie on Salon.

The author does a pretty great job of summing up why I loved this show when I was a kid:

"Though, actually, when you go back to watch his adventures two decades after they first aired, you discover Mac's target audience probably consisted mainly of boys, not men... This jogged in me memories of boyhood, especially of how, after watching each MacGyver trick, I'd feel a bit invincible: I was small, but I was clever. Like MacGyver, I could take them."

Obama is a Hiphopopotamus

So this past weekend I picked up the Flight of the Conchords CD, which is tons of fun... although I have to say that if you're unfamiliar with the show you should really get to know them by checking out the DVDs of the first season. Below you can check out their runaway hit Hiphopopotamus vs. Rhymenoceros (feat. Rhymenoceros and the Hiphopopotamus). It's classic. Before that, however, or after (whichever you prefer) you should check out political news of the day from Wonkette, where they've documented McCain's inability to say whether he believes or not that Obama is a secret Hipopotamus! Amazing.



There ain't no party like my nana's tea party!

Cheese Rap, Best Way Back

Dear Readers,

I've been away a good bit lately, stressed over relaunching my company's website and playing lots and lots and lots of softball. Still, the website is now launched, so I've got a little more time on my hands... a little! Enough to uncover this gem, sent my way by the "I Love Cheese" group on Facebook (I kid you not):



Enjoy!!
