Keep Fucking That Chicken
saw this on the Daily Show (oh how I’ve missed you, Daily Show):
Only on Fox! Anastos – is that Greek 
And of course here’s the apology:
might be offended? How about the FCC?!? And then there’s this video from the past
which IMO doesn’t paint them in a very professional light at all – especially the on camera laughing and audio after they sign off. I mean, don’t you cut the mics right when the music starts? Don’t you wait for the mics to be cut before you bust out laughing at a “dot cock” cock-up? Lovely.
Keep fucking that cock, everyone

CNN on Cigna’s Payroll??
Ahh CNN, the network that fills its newscasts with shout outs from Twitter, the network that hired Rick Sanchez to get stun gunned and interview his mom. The network that gave Glenn Beck a platform and now allows Lou Dobbs to try to chase him into crazyland.And now this from PBE: Smoke & Passion – The Ad CNN & Insurance Giants Don’t Want You To See
What on earth is going on at CNN?The network — already taking criticism for declining to run an ad criticizing Lou Dobbs — is now refusing to run an ad nationally criticizing the insurance industry, the group that tried to place the ad tells me.
CNN’s reason: The ad “unnecessarily” singles out a top insurance industry executive by name for criticism.
The labor-backed Americans United for Change, a top White House ally in the health care wars, tried to book time on CNN and MSNBC for the ad, which hits the insurance industry for wanting to preserve the status quo and levels harsh criticism at insurance giant Cigna’s CEO, Ed Hanway.
“Why do insurance companies and Republicans want to kill health insurance reform? Because they like things the way they are now,” the ad says, and then slams Hanway’s annual salary of over $12 million and golden parachute retirement package of over $70 million.
Americans United for Change’s spokesman, Jeremy Funk, tells me that CNN refused to run the ad nationally. He says CNN emailed the following reason for rejection:
“This ad does not comply with our clearance guidelines because it unnecessarily singles out an individual company and person.”
That very well may be CNN’s policy. But AUC maintains that the mention of Cigna’s CEO was necessary to dramatize the enormous stake the insurance industry has in the health care wars. What’s more, AUC argues, the industry is made up of companies that are run by individuals deciding how to spend huge money to impact the health care debate — so why are they off limits?
“The bottom line question is: Would CNN run ads from Cigna that are positive about the company?” Funk asks. “If yes, why would they turn down an ad critical of the company for their role in trying to kill health insurance reform?”
By contrast, the ad will air nationally on MSNBC tomorrow. Here’s the spot:
Seems like the corporate whore-out on healthcare is getting deeper and deeper by the hour.

Homer: Man In The Mirror?
Q. In an episode of The Simpsons, Homer is in a psychiatric hospital with another patient, who’s large, white and claims to be Michael Jackson. He speaks, sings and dances like Michael Jackson until the end of the episode when he reveals he just imitates Michael Jackson so people will like him. In the credits, the guest voice name is John Jay Smith. Am I turning into a conspiracy nut in my old age or was it really Michael Jackson as the guest voice? R.O., Fort LauderdaleA. This doesn’t rule out the possibility that you are turning into a conspiracy nut in your old age but it was Michael Jackson’s voice, uncredited, in the episode Stark, Raving Dad. Also, according to the Internet Movie Date Base, “In the episode The Itchy and Scratchy Movie, Dustin Hoffman and Michael Jackson are said to have made pseudonymous appearances in a movie. This was an inside jab at the fact that both Michael Jackson and Dustin Hoffman had provided voices during the first few seasons of The Simpsons, but neither was credited under his real name.”
who knew?

Proof that ESPN Hates the Beautiful Game
John Anderson, the typical Sportscenter knob who stumbles through Champions League highlights and names and terms, finally admits – ON ABC’S YOUTUBE CHANNEL – that he hates footy. Are you kidding me? And you want ME to support watching any soccer on ESPN?!? Or any Disney properties?
Fuck That! Come on FSC and Fox!

Colbert Report Alpha Dog
Saw this on The Colbert Report last night. There’s nothing I like doing less than counting the wrinkles on a dog’s balls. And apparently this dude in Montana agrees – with one exception:
New Wrinkle On Avoiding Jury Duty – April 30, 2009APRIL 30–There are probably better ways to avoid jury duty than the approach recently taken by a Montana man. After Erik Slye, 36, received a jury notice earlier this year, he filed a notarized affidavit seeking to be excused from serving on a District Court panel in Gallatin County. Slye’s caustic affidavit, which he prepared with help from his wife Jennifer, can be found below. The document, of course, did not sit well with court officials and led a judge to threaten to jail Slye. But after being summoned to court, Slye apologized for the affidavit and avoided being cited on a criminal failure to appear rap. And he also was excused from serving on a jury.
I’d like to see him try that in New York!

Is it just me or …

Tribute to the Uptown Comedy Club
I doubt anyone remembers but this is a skit comedy show that was syndicated in the mid 90’s – right around the time In Living Color was dying out – it featured Tracy Morgan who would go on to fame on SNL and 30 Rock. It also had the first Yo Mama joke battles. It was a hard to find show (1am on Saturday nights here) but it was like an urban Kids in the Hall.
why’d they call him Biscuit? Cuz he was a biscuit away from 300 pounds!
was that John Leguizamo?
i used to jot down yo mama jokes from this show to use
even Chris Tucker made an appearance
see more in the Yo Mama FAQs
