In one episode where they are showing “Creature from the Black Lagoon” there are these two guys clowning around a backyard kiddy pool that looks like it was shot in the Heights. And they even recreated the “Baby Ruth bar in the pool” gag from CADDYSHACK. (That was the “revenge of the creature.”) When they feature a puppet, you can see the arm, and the mic boom drops in all the time. I have no doubt it’s intentional, at least most of the time.

They are sponsored by Party Boy warehouse, and apparently get all their (rather crappy) costumes and props there.

And right now they’re showing several classic Universal monster movies.

And they have a website, a MySpace page and videos on YouTube.

10:30 Saturday nights, Channel 55.

It’s not really very good, but I just love the fact that someone is still doing this kind of thing.

Witness the power of the internet! These are all t-shirt designs that have popped up in that last week referencing this attention-whoring doofus. I didn’t search very hard for these at all, and even left out at least five that were just lame text.

A INVISIBILITY IS YOU!

From the Enlightment Card website:

Some people say money is evil…

We say “how” money is used determines the effect.

Welcome to the Enlightenment Card vision: a membership and a Visa Reward Card program. When you apply for our card, it automatically enrolls you into our free membership program that can be used for discounts on health-conscious stores, products, and services.

The Enlightenment Visa Reward Card was founded on the idea that money is energy and if used with positive and integrative intention, can have the power to affect change in our lives and the world. Everyone uses a credit card, so why not have one where people can earn points towards positive products and services that enhances their overall conscious life? Some of the categories of rewards you can earn points toward are: Travel, Retreats + Workshops, Yoga Classes, Organic Products, Holistic Spa Treatments, Books + DVD’s, Merchandise, or use your points to donate to a charity.

Man, wish I’d thought of this first! In the corner of my mind, I still think(hope? pray?) it might be a joke.

Well, that title just about says it all. This has got to be one of the most bizarre goddamn things I’ve ever seen.

I just learned that the face of Resusci-Annie is based on the death mask of a young French girl who drowned in the 1890’s. Creepy. Here’s the video for the Michael Jackson song if you, like myself, can’t get it out of your head now.
