Colbert 2008

Monday, October 29th, 2007 by Claude

Colbert Seal 2008If you didn’t know, Stephen Colbert has decided to run for President, 2008.  He hopes to be listed on both the Democratic and Republican ballots.

Here is a link to a CNN.com article. 

The story is ho-hum, but the comments are funny. Some are by people who think that he is a nut-job and that the country needs to focus on getting :
1) on the right track
2) out of the war
3) a life…blah blah blah

Some people cannot take a break from politics for 2 seconds to laugh at the certain level of obsurdity politics entails.  Lighten up y’all.

Scrubs - A Charlie Brown Christmas

Monday, October 29th, 2007 by Fuzz

When I was a kid, Snoopy and the Peanut Gang were my FAVORITE. Now that I’m a grown up (kinda), I really like the show, Scrubs. Imagine my delight when I stumbled upon this little mix up from the Scrubs 2003/2004 Christmas party. It’s A Charlie Brown Christmas, dubbed over by the Scrubs cast. Marvelous!

For My Favorite Employee

Monday, October 22nd, 2007 by Fuzz

Dear Josh, I saw this and thought of you… Minesweeper: The movie.

“Why are you really here?”

“I wanna make this land safe!!!”

“WHY ARE YOU HERE, SOLDIER?!?”

“I’m here because I’m BORED!”

“Don’t you ever forget that!.”

Smoke and Mirrors

Friday, October 19th, 2007 by Fuzz

Mark, my news guy, had a story on this morning about David Copperfield’s storage facility being raided and $2 Million cash being seized. The Las Vegas Review-Journal is chocking it up to “possible sexual misconduct by the illusionist.”

From CNN.com:

FBI agents searched a Las Vegas, Nevada, warehouse owned by illusionist David Copperfield, according to an FBI spokesman, adding that the Wednesday night raid was related to a case based in Seattle.

Britney Spears - Unfit to be a Mother

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007 by Fuzz

The courts took away Britney Spears’s babies and granted their custody to Kevin Federline.

L.A. County Superior Court Judge Scott Gordon issued an order today, stating that Kevin Federline, the boys’ father, “is to retain physical custody of the minor children on Wednesday, October 3, 2007 at 12:00 PM until further order of the court.”

I am going to go ahead and assume that instead of actually straightening her life up and trying to get her kids back, the new “freedom” that she has is going to send her spiraling down faster than Anna Nicole Smith. Get your popcorn ready.

If You Have Nine Minutes…

Monday, October 1st, 2007 by Fuzz

Watch this video of David Letterman schooling Paris Hilton. She gets what she deserves… and she doesn’t like it whatsoever.

Dave asks, “…is that somebody you met in prison?” HILARIOUS!

Thanks to Claude for the link!

Firesale: USA

Thursday, September 27th, 2007 by Claude

If you saw Die Hard 4 (Live Free or Die Hard), you know what a fire sale is, in terms of a cyber attack.

CNN.com features a video of an AC360 story about the possibility of such an event.  Saying that a prolonged power outtage to 1/3 of the US would be like having 50 hurricanes hit (based on the area affected, I would guess).

It’s great that everything has become so convenient and (inter)netted together that even destroying our infastructure is able to be done with the click of a mouse.

13 busted in ‘Seinfeld’ pop can scam

Thursday, September 27th, 2007 by Claude

Seinfeld CastLife imitates art…imitates life… 

From ClickOnDetroit.com (link)

DETROIT — Authorities said they arrested 13 people and seized more than $500,000 in cash after breaking up a smuggling ring that collected millions of beverage containers in other states and cashed them in for 10 cents apiece in Michigan.

“Each year, this type of activity defrauds the state approximately $13 million,” said Col. Peter Munoz, Michigan State Police director.

The charges include maintaining a continuing criminal enterprise, a 20-year felony, and fraud, a 5-year felony, the statement said.

The probe recalled a 1996 episode of “Seinfeld” in which two characters learn about Michigan’s 10-cent deposit law and head there with a truckload of 5-cent New York cans, hoping to cash in on the difference, before getting sidetracked.

US Economy to Suffer…

Tuesday, September 25th, 2007 by Claude

as Halo 3 is released today.  Very similar to when the Star Wars movies were released, expect for stories in the media to announce that hundreds of thousands of American (single male) workers called in sick today due to the release of Halo 3.

While I do not own an XBox or XBox 360, I can tell you that having only played the original Halo for 30 minutes, the game kicks ass.

Don’t Tase Me Bro!

Thursday, September 20th, 2007 by Claude

When it comes to the incident (cnn.com link 1, 2, 3, 4…)of the Florida college student who was tased while asking John Kerry about conceeding the 2004 Election and his affiliation (as well as President Bush’s) with the Secret Society known as Skull & Bones, I think Steven Colbert said it best:

“Being tased is no big deal when you consider what The Skull & Bones Society is going to do to him…”

“Let me give you a hint as to what that will involve… Skulls and Bones.” :D

New idea for Survivor (after 14 seasons)

Thursday, September 20th, 2007 by Claude

So, there is ANOTHER season of Survivor on TV?  14 Seasons of the same crap?

I have only watched the last episode of the Season 1…that was plenty for me.

This is getting a little crazy, let’s make the show REALLY about survival and make these clowns live on minimum wage for 90 days.

I give you, Survivor - Minimum Wage!

Survivor Minimum Wage

Dan Rather Sues CBS/Viacom for $70 Million

Wednesday, September 19th, 2007 by Fuzz

This guy is such a joke. Dan Rather is suing CBS and Viacom for $70 Million, claiming that they “made him a scapegoat” for their “discredited story.” Even still, Rather stands behind the entire fabricated story. (remember the “typewritten” document that was made with Microsoft Word?)

I suppose, though… when you’re out of work you have to make money in some way. Might as well do it the American way. Sue the pants off of somebody.

Rain Wilson vs. KanYe West

Tuesday, September 18th, 2007 by Claude

From the Emmy Awards…the whole bit is really funny.

Enough already

Tuesday, September 11th, 2007 by Claude

Fuzz will be the first one to tell all of you that I am no self-proclaimed anything when it comes to politics…but I would side closer to a democrat than a republican (these days), so this post will make a lot of the FuzzMartin.com-ers happy…

If you own a vehicle and have a “Kerry / Edwards ‘04″ sticker on it…please take it off.  The election was 3 years ago and they didn’t win.  Ok?  It’s over, find another topic to share the free space on your car.

Do I mind the “W” stickers?  Well, no.  I think it’s acceptable to have a “Bush / Cheney ‘04″ sticker because they won…I don’t even mind the “W ‘04″ stickers (the idea was stolen from a W supporter who received no compensation, btw).

So, put on a happy hat for the winner and all of you who voted and supported the loser, find something else to stick up on your rear.

Sarah Silverman on Britney Spears (and 50 and Kanye and Amy Winehouse)

Say what you want about her, I think Sarah Silverman rocks:

2007 Mtv Video Music Awards

Monday, September 10th, 2007 by Claude

First off…is MTV hosting a video music award show kind of ironic?  Their programming schedule includes about 4 hours of videos all day.

On with this show…I missed the begining (Britney Spears giving a lack-luster comeback performance).  This show was a grab-astic mess.  I feel bad for the director who had to coordinate all of the crap going on with this show.  Unlike the traditional show MTV hosts at Radio City Music Hall, this one was done at the Palms Casino in Las Vegas.  The show’s main room had these big round tables where nominees were seated (the tables also doubled as dancing platforms for performers).  The weird thing was you couldn’t see anyone…and there were different hotel suites that had groups performing to smaller hotel-room-sized audiences.  It was really weird and all over the place.  It didn’t look like anyone was at the show, because of the format.

Lowlights…Miss Teen South Carolina attempting to parody herself by acting dumb (Again) by saying “U.S. Americans…The Iraq…” blah blah.  Gym Class Heros winning Best New Artist…(These guys have stolen every hook from their “hit” songs from real hit songs.  I would spit on these guys if I saw them in public…they are ruining classics)…Kid Rock and Tommy Lee fighting and Pam Anderson was there (are any of these people relevant anymore?)…Too much Yung Joc, T-Pain, T.I, et al.  Even The Foo Fighters were boring.

Highlights I saw…50 Cent and Kanye West presenting an award together (does anyone else think their album launch “beef” was dreamed up by them to sell more records tomorrow?)…Linkin Park performing…Chris Brown doing an homage to Michael Jackson’s 1984 VMA performance dance to Billie Jean..and my favorite, Justin Timberlake (after having won an award) saying “I challenge MTV to start playing more videos”.

Amen Brother.Â
