30 Day Song Challenge-Day 25 "A Song That Makes You Laugh"
Two reasons it makes me laugh: it's the intro music to Nick Swardson's comedy special "Seriously, Who Farted?" and...the lyrics are hilarious.

As a former waitress and a single woman with no kids, I can honestly say...the next time I am in Pennsylvania, I will be eating at this place. Maybe this will start a trend. Click the picture for the full story.

This is one of my earliest memories. My first dance recital when I was 6. The older girls were doing the COOLEST dance routine to this song. I was so jealous. But, I still looked good in my tutu and danced ballet to some lame song I don't remember.

I Like This Idea...How About 2012 Being the Year of the "Blue Republican"?
Robin Koerner wrote an amazing piece today at the Huffington Post. Whether you are a Republican, Independent, or Democrat...the primaries are the time to be a "blue republican".
Click on the link for the full story.
Put another way, when it comes to such things as the killing of innocent people, taking from the common man to support cronies, and the elimination of the basic values that make our lives worth living, we had the hope, but we haven't had the change.

MSNBC Forgets Someone
This morning on MSNBC's Morning Joe, the topic was Republican Presidential candidate fundraising for the 2nd quarter. Here is a screenshot during the discussion. You may not know, but someone was left out.
For the record, Ron Paul was in 2nd place with an estimated total of $4.6 million. Seriously, what is it with the media blackout?

This was a really tough choice for me. I hate a lot of songs. But, this could quite possibly be the worst song ever written.

I'm Not A Douche, I'm a Revolutionary!
Christopher Titus has a new comedy special called "Neverlution".
If you don't laugh at the events of the last decade, you will cry. This weekend on Comedy Central, comedian Christopher Titus (who barely makes it into Gen X, born in 1964) hilariously vents about the huge buzz-kill known as the 21st century. Let's face it, this century's first decade was not a great one for our country. And, as Titus points out, this is the first true hardship our generation has ever faced. Those of us in Gen X who grew up partying like it was 1999, got a rude awakening starting in December of 2000. From George W. Bush being "elected" president to the current recession...and everything in between...Titus brings a witty, observational viewpoint to many of the problems we have faced in the past 10 years. He also brings forward his ideas for how to fix things...and it doesn't involve giving trophies to losers.
Set your DVR. I am sure Comedy Central will be replaying it at some point. Who doesn't need a 90 minute laugh?

This is a joke, right? I think I may need to invest in a Weight Watchers franchise.
An ABC "news" panel discusses the Constitution and if the government can force the obese to lose weight. I have lost my voice from screaming at the television. If I didn't love my HDTV so much, I would have punched it while watching this conversation.
People, we are in trouble.
