My apologies in advance if this offends anyone...as I am fully aware that the hurricane season this past year has been disastrous...but if we can't laugh, then we're all in trouble...
It’s a bit long, but pretty interesting…about how the NYPD and New York in general has changed since 9/11 and how we are effectively trying to combat terrorism right here in NYC…
Jon Stewart, "The Daily Show," on protests in Jordan against Abu Musab al-Zarqawi over the recent hotel bombings: "It's almost as if the terrorist strategy of winning over the Islamic world by blowing it up is backfiring."
Comedy writer Rob Bates: "Vice President Dick Cheney is said to have led the opposition to the congressional ban on inhumane treatment of prisoners. Experts say this policy may be rethought now that so many people in the vice president's office may be going to prison."
Stewart on Bruce Willis' recent offer of $1 million for the capture of al-Qaida terrorist leaders: "Here's how you know you're a successful movie star: You're making terrorist bounty money."
David Letterman, "Late Show with David Letterman," on the Country Music Association awards show being held at Madison Square Garden: "Big night for the Dixie Chicks. They beat the Knicks 112- 94."
Comedy writer Jim Barach: "Jesse Jackson and Ralph Nader have come to the defense of Terrell Owens. Only a politician and preacher can really understand what it's like to keep putting your foot in your mouth."
Conan O'Brien, "Late Night with Conan O'Brien," on Paris Hilton getting bitten by her pet monkey: "Fortunately, a doctor quickly showed up and gave the monkey shots."
Letterman on the cancellation of "The Apprentice: Martha Stewart": "It's the same old story. It's hard to hold a job when you're an ex-con."
Sorry for the problems with the website that have existed over the past several months. Unfortunately, my hosting provider was not that reliable, but I believe I have found a much more reliable hosting provider (see below) which should now allow this site to be up and working continuously!!
Also, stay tuned for lots of changes in the upcoming weeks!!
I'd also like to extend a big THANK YOU to John Michael of JMF Hosting for graciously providing me with the web space and bandwidth to once again have my website (and even be able to expand it in all the ways I plan to over the next several weeks)!
Some of you might have already tried this, but if you haven’t, it’s kinda funny…
Go to www.google.com and then type in the word “failure” and click “I’m Feeling Lucky”…and then be amazed and entertained by the site that you get taken too…
David Letterman, "Late Show with David Letterman": "Insiders say that if Karl Rove resigns, President Bush will not function effectively. Wait a minute - all this time he's been functioning effectively?"
Bill Maher, "Real Time with Bill Maher": "Apparently [President] Bush is so exhausted from fighting off all of the scandals, he's praying for another emergency like a flood or an attack, so he can kick back and do nothing."
Tina Fey, "Saturday Night Live": "Last week Hurricane Wilma grew into the most intense Atlantic storm ever recorded, a Category 5 with 175 mph winds, or what's known around FEMA as 'casual Friday.'"
Maher on Saddam Hussein's court appearance last week: "[He had a] full beard, put on a little weight, and insisted he was still president. I thought it was Al Gore."
Comedy writer Jim Barach on the death of former "Our Gang" star Eugene "Porky" Lee at 71: "That means the title of the oldest person with a kid's nickname now goes to Lewis 'Scooter' Libby."
Fey on U2 lead singer Bono meeting with President Bush in the White House: "[Bono] urged the president to help the world's poor, while the president urged Bono to get back with Cher."
Comedy writer Rob Bates on an anti-Tom Cruise Web site called ScienTOMogy, which received a cease-and-desist letter from the Church of Scientology: "The church claims the exclusive rights to make Tom Cruise look stupid."
Anyone ever try and browse to a web site, only to find that they get that stupid generic “Page Cannot Be Found” message. For anyone who’s ever gotten that message and gotten pissed off at it, these are for you:
