The Nuts Are Running The Squirrel House

I’ve got a spiffy new design, a caffeine-imbibing squirrel, and the determination to update my blog more often!  What a trifecta!   Hopefully I will be able to win back your readership after my semi-hiatus.  Let me know how you like the look!

One of the big celebrity problems right now is the Anna Nicole Smith situation–where she will be buried, who gets her money, etc. Sources say that she is decomposing, and needs to be buried soon. To prevent a long trial, I propose that her open casket be placed at the front of the […]

This site gives you something fun to do with pictures.  Just upload a picture from your pc, and the program will “Warholize” (as in Andy Warhol, and his picture of Marilyn Monroe) it for you.  Here’s one I did with a picture of me laughing:

I’ve been listening to Liza Minnelli and just ordered a bunch of books about her and her mother, Judy Garland.  The fame/performance bug may have bitten me…”It’s up to you, New York, New York!”

There are many unfunny things in the world–disasters, suffering, SARS, and any host of a “funny videos” show.  However, these all fade into the background when compared with the monarch of unfunny…Marmaduke.
For the life of me, I don’t know how the Marmaduke comic strip has lasted this long.  It is one of the most un-funny […]
