Rock Block Parallel #1: Animal Farm
by Steve West on July 13, 2008
Starting a theme parallel.
Best new Barbie since "I'm Breaking Our Date" Ken - Hitchcock Barbie.
Happy moments captured. I wanna be the cat. I imagine this is also what Steve Dunn looks like after 8-9 beers.
This is an interesting idea for jewelry except that if you lose one you have to wait 17 years to get a replacement. Cicada earrings.
Useless animal facts.
If I had a dog, I would buy him this pillow as a chew toy. And I would laaauuuuugh...
One more concession (pun intended) China is making for the Olympics.
Gilbert Gottfried rant on The Planet of the Apes.

Probably both but I meant the latter.

I'll Have The Misogyny Au Gratin, Please
We were having dinner with my nephew the other night and the conversation steered toward his numerous relationships. He replied with that standard chauvinistic response, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?" My wife looked at him directly and retorted, "Yeah, why buy the whole pig for just a little sausage?" Go »Odds & Ends
Yesterday, Lauren and I went to Toby's Dinner Theatre for her birthday and saw Happy Days, the musical. I was never a big fan of the series but had seen enough of it to get the inside jokes and references to the old sitcom. A few of the groaners included not seeing Chuck for a few years now, the Fonz not being the same since he jumped the shark and Richie commenting on his usual ability to solve problems in just one-half hour. Go »As The Firm Sang - I'm Radioactive
Brenda is under quarantine now because of an ablation procedure that makes her radioactive. Some stray thyroid tissue is apparently on her oncologist's hit list and he won't be denied. I'm sleeping on the couch for the next three nights and I'm doing the Daddy thing solo for the next three days. Go »Never Volunteer, Dummy
Ever since seeing Anthony Hopkins in Magic, ventriloquists and their evil dummies have given me the creeps. This guy does as well but I laughed nonetheless. I think I could sit through his entire act but could never get past the queasiness and actually volunteer like this guy did. Go »Creepy Halloween Lodgings
These creepy places to stay during a Halloween vacation may be too late to consider this year but they're not going anywhere soon so keep them in mind for the future. You can't stay in all of these places but for those that you can, there's that extra layer of creepiness. The Haunted Hull House in Chicago. Go »

Do you mean that is what Steve Dunn would look like to you after you had 8-9 beers, or that after Steve Dunn had 8-9 beers, he would look like that?
