Don't download this blog

Another trip to Walgreens. Another sign that the apocalypse is nigh. They have Halloween candy out. OK, I've come to understand that the Christmas shopping season begins somewhere around July, but Halloween... Who in their right mind buys candy two months in advance?


Things my wife says:

I told her I'd give her a section of her own. Not that she doesn't have a whole blog of her own. Anyway, today, I was driving her home from work when she mentioned that she needed to make a dentist appointment in the near future. Then she wondered aloud, "Would a gay dentist be a tooth fairy?"


This week's theme:
ALF!!

There comes a time in every star's life in which s/he has to realize that the only chance that they have of staying in the public eye is taking really stupid gigs. They'll never actually recapture their stardom, but they just can't give up. (see Bradshaw, Terry)

But, then what are the rules on this for midgets in alien suits? Is this:
1) Nostalgia
2) A pathetic attempt to hang on to a fading career
3) Not funny to begin with, so there's nothing to recapture
4) Amazingly funny

I'm confused myself.


On to the news:

Bright, shiny objects:

And now a word from our sponsors:

And finally:

Is it bad that I'm obsessed with this song?
