Maude TV Opening Theme – Click here for more free videos
To honor her, I’m going to buy my wife a purple duster with a high collar for her birthday. According to Wikipedia, that’s Donny Hathaway singing the opening theme. No wonder that shit swings like it does.
What Mecca is for Islam, Sweden is for white woman. I can’t believe The Daily Show fell for the whole Socialism angle. Well played, my brother.

Vexing for multiple reasons. As the title suggests, my mind immediately goes to the struggling MCs in the greater Winston-Salem, NC area. You’re relaxing on the couch after a long, hard day of real keeping. You turn on the news and see this shit. Really, WXII? You couldn’t at least give Jenny some money out of petty cash to pay for a ghost writer? But white people making awful hip-hop related decisions is neither new nor shocking. What I’m genuinely surprised by is just how bad she is. It’s 2009. You’d think that by now the words, sounds, and affectations of hip-hop would have permeated white culture enough for this chick to be able to cobble together some rudimentary lyrics. It’s like she doesn’t even understand the basic concept of a rhyme scheme.
I blame Fergie.

What’s Up, Tiger Lily?
Since I’ve been doing stand-up almost as long as we’ve been together, the wife has seen more than her fair share of comedians. As you might expect, she’s a bit jaded. Someone who always manages to brighten her day is the highly original Maria Bamford. Her act is part stand-up, part one-woman show, and part multiple-personality disorder. She’s the comedy co-chair of the long-running show What’s Up, Tiger Lily.
This Monday, in honor of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., I will be intergrating the fuck out of Tiger Lily. If you have no money, but a desire to see a kick-ass comedy show with real life teevee personalities like the aformentioned Ms. Bamford and Mary Lynn Rajskub (24, Little Miss Sunshine) come on down and let’s pour some out for the brother who isn’t here.

Well played, Onion
God knows I’ve had this argument on many occasions.
Donald Fagen Defends Steely Dan To Friends
NEW YORK—While having drinks with friends at a local bar Monday, Donald Fagen, 60, a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and cofounder of the multiplatinum-selling American rock band Steely Dan, was once again forced to defend his appreciation for the multiplatinum-selling American rock band Steely Dan.
“Look, I understand. It’s an acquired taste,” Fagen said after putting his group’s 1978 hit “Deacon Blues” on the bar’s jukebox. “I wasn’t that into it at first, either. But when you really listen to the unbelievable production values and the wry, perfectly crafted lyrics—it’s just great art, okay? You should definitely give ‘the Dan’ a shot.”
Very funny, guys. But you can’t front on this:
