Dietary Conspiracy
While waiting in line at the grocery store, I was able to catch sight of the funniest thing I've seen in the past week or so: The cover of the new Woman's World magazine. The headline - 'The DaVinci Code Diet! The hidden code that will help you shed pounds...'

I've Heard Enough Outta You
My interpretation of a classic SNL skit used to comment on a certain 'band':
Herlihy Boy: Hello. Let me play in the Black Eyed Peas. Please? Let me play in their group. You've probably heard them on the radio. Or your phone. (?) You may have mistaken it for the Emergency Brodcast noise. Please let me play in the Black Eyed Peas. Mr. O'Malley:Let the boy play in the Black Eyed Peas! That's all!!
Herlihy Boy: Hello. How've you been? Oh, that's nice. Let me dress like a blind hobo with the Black Eyed Peas. I also confuse my wardrobe with my musical talent. I'm sure they would understand. Come on, I can find some neon orange pants to match my rustic blue plaid shirt. Maybe I could cut my hair with a hedge trimmer, too. Just let me dress like those clowns, please? Mr. O'Malley:He can't dress himself anyways! So, let the boy dress like those idiots! He's already got the plaid shirt!!
Herlihy Boy: Hi, hello. Are you good? Good! Let me write annoying crap for the Black Eyed Peas. I used to write poetry in grade school. I can rhyme 'say' with 'hey'. I can also make up gibberish words like 'frakkafoo' or 'gabibadee.' My writing would fit right into their musical catalogue. We could make it a hit single with computers. I honestly and sincerely want to write abysmmal dreck for the Black Eyed Peas. Mr. O'Malley:Sweet Mary and Joseph! What is the hold up!? He still uses a crayon to write letters!! Just let the boy write for them! They probably flunked English, too!! Lordy Bagordy!!
Herlihy Boy: Hey, look who's here! It's nice to see you again, you look great! Let me end the Black Eyed Peas career. I've already dressed like a bum and written childish nosense. Please? They'll probably try and release a 'Best of' album before long and I'd like to prevent that from happening. I promise I would do everything in my power to rid the world of the Black Eyed Peas. Please? Mr. O'Malley:Can we STOP this cruel game! And allow music to have ONE shred of diginity! I can't stand to listen to this painful crap! You VICIOUS BASTARDS!! Hurry up and get these people off the airwaves!! For the LOVE OF GOD, can we end the Black Eyed Peas!! Good Lord!!
Herlihy Boy: I'm not gonna beg you. The Black Eyed Peas music speaks for itself. I'm confident you will make the right decision.

Blockbusters or Bombbusters
It's always annoyed me that movies are pre-labelled 'blockbusters' before they are even released. Maybe, it's just a telling sign of people's sheeplike attitude to advertising- "Hmm, the Robin-Williams-acting-like-he's-black bit is a bit trodden, but the television did say it's a laugh-out-loud comedy..." Anyways, the obligatory summer fart of THE BLOCKBUSTERS is soon to start and I couldn't be less thrilled. Rehashes and Sequels Chaaaaarge:
Superman Returns or You're not fooling anyone, Kevin Spacey or This movie is wrapped in plastic or I have a gay attraction to Superman- Signed, Bryan Singer
Poseidon or Save me, Kurt Russell! or Crap- it's Kurt Russell or This one's not really an adventure, it's about a gigantic angry sea god
Cars or Talking NASCAR, we can't lose! or I thought you knew what you were doing, Pixar
Mission Impossible III or Tom Cruise is crazy and now he has a gun or Let's see how many times we can have him pull off his face
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest or Orlando Bloom can't act- please ignore him or Actually this one looks alright
I'll probably see Mission Impossible III as well since Phillip Seymour Hoffman looks pretty unintentionally funny in the preview. Also funny, this promotional gimmick.
