Strangers with Steroids
One of my favorite episodes of Strangers with Candy. Jerri is about to be kicked off the girls’ track team and lose her chance to take a bath with the nubile teens. Desperate, ala Barry Bonds, she turns to medical science. If you don’t find these funny, you may be a replicant like in Blade [...]
Freedom isn’t free, people!

Thanksgiving roundup
Hey, hope everyone had a decent Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving isn’t that big of a deal to me, but hey it’s a day off. We woke up and watched some of the Detroit Thanksgiving Day Parade. I like the Detroit parade the best. The Macy’s parade is too theatrical and broadway-ish for me. I like a traditional [...]
