I've been to Maine a couple of times… but have never really spent any time there. So I really have no idea about the population there, or why they would vote against same-sex marriage—but apparently these guys have a bit of a reputation. Check out this classic clip from the old Dana Carvey Show (co-starring Stephen Colbert), which explains things a bit.

In case you've missed it, meet the guys behind I Love Local Commercials, who go around the country making commercials for small businesses that need help getting the word out. And even better, the ads are WEIRD and FUNNY. Here's their newest commercial starring the Salt Lake Community College Barbering & Cosmetology School. (Great jingle, you guys!)

Ooh! And here's one my sister sent me that originates from her hometown of Cullman, Alabama. Thanks, sis!

Season Three of Mad Men has been uniformly A-MA-ZING. Certainly better than season two, and probably better than season one. And last night's episode was no exception. Check out what one of my fave sites (The Footnotes of Mad Men) had to say about it.

“So, we’re driving, two couples, I call it ‘Double Date.’ The woman in the back’s scarf blows off, and her hair starts blowing. Her hairdo falls apart. (Marty Faraday in the ‘backseat’: ’Oh no!’) And then the woman in front takes off her scarf, and hands it back to the woman in the back. (Peggy: ‘Take mine’.) And he says, ‘Are you sure Marsha?’ Marsha’s hair is perfect. And then her date gives her a knowing smile of admiration on her confident smile — Aqua Net: Arrive in Style.”

Peggy’s going to be working extra late.

Mad Men: Taking national tragedy to awkward new heights.

Dear Melissa Joan Hart (AKA Sabrina the Teenage Witch):
When discussing your current role on Dancing with the Stars, please refrain from back-sassing Jimmy Kimmel. Because he will reverse back-sass you. And you will be burnt. At the stake.
Roll it.

It pains every part of me to say this, but pretty damn far.

How sad is it that the kindest thing I can say about Spaceballs: The Animated Series is that it isn't the worst cartoon I've ever seen? It's like Mel watched a few episodes of Futurama, and spent a weekend slapping together something in Flash that the stereotypically braindead G4 audience would enjoy almost as much as watching sweaty, nearly naked dudes hump each other into a coma.

Even with all the episodes available for free on Hulu, I can't bring myself to witness just how unfunny my favorite Jewish comedian has become in his twilight years.

I really want the man to publicly state that he's just doing this for the easy paycheck. That's the only valid excuse for this unfunny, poorly animated mess, and at his age I can only hope I have the mental faculties to sell out this hard.

Update: The series does improve as time goes on, but it still never remotely approaches the quality of Brooks' earlier work. If you have six hours to kill — sadly, I do — and absolutely HAVE to see everything Mel has done, you could feasibly consider watching this thing.

Last Thursday, David Letterman announced that someone on the CBS staff was trying to blackmail him for $2 million in exchange for not revealing that he had at one time been sexually involved with some of his staff members. Naturally, Dave said "SCREW YOU" and confessed the whole thing on the Late Show. Last night he apologized for his behavior, to his staff, to his wife, and of course Sarah Palin. If you ever get in trouble, folks, here's how to issue a mea culpa.

Now that he's apologized, let's recall him. And when that recall fails, let's recall him again.

What happens when you play the theme song to Frasier backwards? Well naturally you conjure up Satan… that's a given. But who knew that our cloven-hooved dark master of the underworld took such a liking to Skittles?

Horns up for BWE!

Unlike me, you have more money than you know what to do with. And since you don't know what to do with your money, allow me to make the following suggestion: Buy the complete series of Full House on DVD for the low, low price of only $78.99 (normally $169.98)! Eight seasons! 192 episodes! THE FREAKING OLSEN TWINS, MAN!!! But hurry, this deal is for today only!! Did I mention the FREAKING OLSEN TWINS??
Wait… you're still not convinced? Then watch the following video aptly entitled "Full House Fun Moments." If you aren't buying the complete series by the time Danny and Joey dress up as women, then I only have three words for you: "CUT… IT… OUT!"
