Flashback to the 1989 blockbuster, UHF

This is Crazy Ernie. The recession has really affected his sales lately. Listen to his innovative approach to drum up some business.

"If nobody comes down here and buys a car in the next hour, I'm gonna club this baby seal. That's right! I'm gonna club this seal to make a better deal. You know I'll do it, too, cause I'm crazy. "Will he do it? Maybe you should head on down to make sure he doesn't do something too crazy.


If you haven't seen UHF, you are missing out. It's kind of dumb, but not as dumb as some of the movies that win awards, and it's funny (unlike poo in your mailbox).

Man Given Points For Trying Increases Total Trying Points To 643,457

GRAND PRAIRIE, TX—After a failed attempt to surprise his family with a nacho dinner Friday, James Kirchmann, 29, was given 16 points for trying by his wife, Sarah, thereby increasing his running total of trying points to 643,457. "I told him you have to grate the cheese before you put it on the chips, or else it doesn't cook right," Mrs. Kirchmann said. "At least he put in the effort." The failed nacho dinner follows a lifetime of attempts that have earned Kirchmann points for trying, including failing to allemande right during square dancing in sixth-grade gym class, hitting his head on the diving board while screwing up an inward 1 ½ somersault in the tuck position, botching his attempt to keep squirrels out of the attic, incorrectly assuming that his wife wouldn’t want that last peanut covered frozen chocolate Drumstick, and trying to dress his two daughters for church. "To this day I just can't allemande to the right. And you can forget about the half promenade," lamented the balding, overweight father of two. Kirchmann is currently trying to save up the 750,000 trying points needed to get a Spongebob Squarepants keychain.


NICE TRY, GUYS

What would I do for a Klondike Bar?

Today I've answered the question that's been burning in my mind for a long time. Exactly how many five year olds could I take on in an all out brawl?

Here are the rules:

  1. You are in an enclosed area roughly the size of a basketball court
  2. There are no weapons or foreign objects
  3. Everyone is wearing a cup (so no kicks to the groin)
  4. The children are merciless and will show no fear
  5. If a child is knocked unconscious, he is "out." The same goes for you.

Now I know beforehand when to hold'em or fold'em, as the great Mr. Rogers said (Kenny, not Fred). If I see that 23rd or 24th kid lurking in the shadows, I'm outta there. But 20 five year olds? Bring it on!!
