Thanksweek

I hope that you all have lots and lots of fun the next couple days. I will be family doing the whole "quality time" thing. It is the real kick off to the holiday season. So, instead of being all serious, which I have been it seems for the last few posts, I am going to try and brings a little levity to the reading with some funny and fun links.

Star Trek is one of the movies that I am very much looking forward to getting to enjoy next year. The choice of JJ Abrams seems to have been pretty smart. If you haven't seen the trailer, here that is. Even if you have seen it, its pretty awesome and worth watching a couple times. Plus, it gives you the framework from which the next couple clips are taken. The first is just funny, Star Trek 90210. The next one takes the same idea, but instead uses one of what used to be my favorite shows, Smallville.

I don't know why, but this list of wacky signs just makes me laugh. Maybe its the whole, "Not Allowed to Pregnant". I think that some of them were translated and that is what makes it funny.

Since I brought the whole chimp on a Segway thing (this time with music), I thought it was only fitting to bring another clip of the same chimp. This time, its in a track and field competition. Yes, chimps equal funny (or is it Japanese television?).

We, my wife and I, love the show How I Met Your Mother. Last weeks episode, had a great conversation with two of the characters, ala Dr. Seuss. Don't miss the beginning where the guys console Ted by asking if he wants to take revenge by a unique method. Just to spread the goodness that is HIMYM, here is the "Robin Sparkles" videos, Let's Go to the Mall and Sandcastles in the Sand.

As with most Japanese game shows, cats with technology always makes me laugh. Thus, watching a Cat on a Roomba, very funny.

Since I am putting a bunch of YouTube links, I thought it fitting to include this one. Its a little older, but still pretty funny from the Onion.

Finally, I give you something to kick off the Christmas season, if you promise not to watch it until Friday. I am a big MxPx fan. I know that the straight laced demeanor that I normally display fits right in with the idea of punk music, but I have listened to them for about 10 years now. Their Christmas song is one of my favorites. So, here is that video.

Have a great weekend and Thanksgiving!!!
