"Weekend At Bernie's": Havana Style

What is the status of dying dictator Fidel Castro these days? It's hard to get a fix with all these conflicting reports. But you just know that if Hugo Chavez is publicly upbeat then in reality things are probably not looking good.

Chavez said he was pleased to hear from Cuban Vice President Carlos Lage that the 80-year-old Cuban leader was making a recovery. Lage, after meeting with Chavez, said: "We will have Fidel and we will have Raul for a lot more time."

Their hopeful remarks came less than a week after Chavez said Castro was "battling for his life."

It reminds me of the mid-1980's when three Soviet leaders in a row took a turn for the worse after being diagnosed with "a bad cold".

It also reminds me of this famous sketch:

How long will it be before Chavez tries to assure us the Castro is merely pining for the fjords?

The Gift That Keeps On Giving

Listen, guys. Valentine's Day will be here before you know it. So if you're stumped for gifts this year, this clip from SNL may inspire, so...

One particular word makes it NSFW, so if you have headphones this would be time to use them.

Reason No. 11,973 Why I Won't Get A Vasectomy

If it ain't foolproof, I will not allow sharp objects anywhere near my boys.

Surprise Chimp Born In Lousiana Sanctuary, despite all the males having been snipped!

Now managers at Chimp Haven are planning a paternity test for the seven males who lived in a group with Teresa, a wild-born chimpanzee in her late 40s who had the baby girl last week.

Workers have started collecting hair samples from the chimps for testing. Once they identify the father, it's back to the operating room for him.

Heroes Gone Wild

Superman's revelry on New Year's Eve gets slightly out of hand.

The Man of Steel was spotted flying above the city of Rome wearing only a blonde wig, underwear and borrowed sneakers shouting "I'm King of the Word!"

A spokesperson for The Daily Planet had no comment.

Happy "Life Day" To All

Some of you folks will remember this: The Star Wars Holiday Special. The rest of you will ask "WTF?".

Broadcast only one time at Christmas in 1978, this feature was once thought to have been destroyed by George Lucas. But many Bothan spies lost their lives to smuggle VHS copies out of Skywalker Ranch so that capitalist insurgents could sell them on eBay.

For those too young to have seen it, I recommend it for the sheer awfulness of this production.

Check out the intro here:

Who knew Chewbacca had a wife, a son who looked like a hairy Gary Coleman and a father who liked to watch holographic space porn?

And check out the guest star list: Bea Arthur, Art Carney, Diahann Carroll, Harvey Korman and...the Jefferson Starship? Oh yeah. It's that bad.

It's the kind of thing that almost makes you appreciate the crap they have on TV around the holidays these days. If you can get your hands on a copy, the vintage commercial breaks alone are worth the cost of shipping.

In The Spirit Of The Holidays

One of my all-time favorite "South Park" moments. A big thank you to Steve the Llamabutcher for finding it.

Merry F@$#ING Christmas, y'all!

"There's No Need To Fight Evil When Appeasement Will Do Just Fine."

David Zucker comes up with another classic - comparing James Baker to Neville Chamberlain. The whole negotiation bit with Ahmadinejad would be hilarious if it weren't so damn serious.

Evolution Explained In One Minute

I saw this on "South Park" last night but somehow it just seems funnier this morning. Hat Tip to Allahpundit for finding the YouTube clip. No matter where you stand on evolution, you should get a good chortle from this. It really does present Darwin's theory in an interesting light.

Nothing profane but it is after all "South Park", so don't go boosting them speakers too loud at work if ya know what I mean.

Waaay Too Funny Not To Share

Star Wars parody - Palpatine kicking back in his office with his subordinates. I suspect the voice is Seth McFarlane from Family Guy. Sounds a little like Glen Quagmire.

I swear I damn near wet myself over this one.

Meme: You Know You've Reached Middle Age, When...

I got tagged with this one, so here goes...

- you take several days before you accept the premise that you are actually middle-aged before you agree to do this meme...

- you've learned to walk through your house while looking down to avoid stepping on stray lego pieces...

- you didn't even know that Saturday Night Live was still on the air...

- the only reason you've heard of the band Bowling For Soup is because you just love that song "1985"...

- when they card you for beer at the supermarket check-out, it makes your week.

That's all for me. So let's see. Now I'm tagging GroovyVic, Steve and Robbo (the Llama Butchers) and Rick, The Real Ugly American.

Head-Turning Headline Of The Week

SCHWARZENEGGER GIVES UP HUMMERS

And it's not even Lent.

Seems to me that this headline could just as easily have been reported in 1986, albeit in a different context.
