Get Your Dunkin Wednesday

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Last night I attended a comedy show to see a couple of Chicago comedy buddies perform. After the show I was able to catch up, meet some new people and chat. It was exactly what I needed. This town business wise is still difficult to figure out. Granted I've only been here a month, but there is so much that is unfamiliar. It could be the local greenery is palm trees. It could be the weather is nice pretty much every day. It could be that it's LA and it's cut from an entirely different cloth. Regardless it was nice to see polished comedians on a side stage of a well-known club and each one brought their own style and comedy. Hat tip to the the Ayers sisters who pulled off a crisp showcase, if you live in the area I definitely recommend going to the Mixer at the Improv Lab.

Here are your highlights:

Time to Declare Victory

Blogger Juan Cole, wants to know WTF the government has on him

Afghan president buries assassinated brother

Speaking of comedy check out the very funny site, Karma Lampoon

Developing: Explosions in Mumbai

There is inner turmoil and what may be disarray in the Republican leadership. Cantor and Boehner are not in a healthy relationship and McConnell doesn't want to fight. Regardless what they've been playing with has been stupid and reckless. Dare I say unpatriotic.

Chow!

Teh Funny Writes Itself

Not only is Obama teh devil and hates teh Jeebus , but also too and what have you, he is pushing the most aggressive liberal policies ever and destroying the country . ON TOP OF THAT, he is guilty of being completely incapable of performing his basic duties as president, a "new-hire college graduate" and surrounded by lazies . It has become increasingly difficult to write satire these days. I can't tell if the right-wing in America is attempting to out crazy comedians in order to render the jokes useless or the scarier and more likely; they have lost their minds and now fully embrace it.

Get Your Dunkin' Thursday

It's Thursday that means we have a new American Idol and it's... it's Kris Allen? Guess America still hates the "flamboyant", I smell a Clay Aiken retread. I didn't watch much of this year because it really came down to Danny Gokey and Adam Lambert for me and once I heard Kris Allen was in the final it was over in my mind. America votes for the "more likable" guy . But you know what was cool? Adam Lambert singing Queen! You could see the guitar legend Brian May drooling over the Freddy Mercury-esque vocal runs. It was rocktastic. Regardless both will have decent careers and the pie on the face of my local paper for running story after story of Adam is rather funny. Both guys have promising careers, there is always room for another Jason Mraz and America needs a Freddy Mercury . Wow. Did I really just dedicate that much analysis to American Idol? Here are your highlights: Bomb plot thwarted in New York , can't have terrorists in our prisons, sen...

Sarah Palin Mistakes Stimulus as Erectile Dysfunction Pill

moar funny pictures In Alaska politics are taking precedent as people are upset with Governor Sarah Palin’s rejection of her state’s share of the stimulus money. Palin said she wanted nothing to do with the stimulus package and found it to be of no use to Alaska. “ Look at our boys here ! My daughter was gosh golly gee knocked up by a young man. We don’t need stimulus packages, as long as they got a hockey jersey we got baby makers!” It has taken nearly a week for aides to Governor Palin to explain that the stimulus package is not a new form of Viagra, but she refuses to retain the information of terrorists. A confident leader Palin is excited to support American values and take care of Alaska . “Anybody wants to go wolf-huntin’ from a helicopter?” she said inciting a riot of a local moose appreciation club. It is unclear whether Palin will eventually accept the stimulus funds when she discovers what they actual represent for her state. Time will only tell. I am Frank Chow and I appro...
