A light bulb, a door-to-door jokester and a geneticist walk into a bar ...

Re: A light bulb, a door-to-door jokester and a geneticist walk into a bar ...

In the movie Blast from the Past, there's a scene where the father, played Christopher Walken, tries to explain baseball to his son, who has only known life living in a bomb shelter. It's clearly a play on the Cooperstown sign. The kid isn't getting the whole concept of a force-out. The whole scene becomes a mini-montage. Later in the movie, when the now adult son is out in the world, he attends his first baseball game and has that moment of recognition, "I get it now, it's because he has to!"

While not a great movie, it's a movie very much worth watching. It was well done, for what it was. I still chortle when I see the scene "Oh my lucky stars! A Negro!" :D

How do you restore your body back to factory settings? Is it kale? It's kale, isn't it? Please don't say kale.

I'm still mad at KS for 24. I swear that show single-handedly set American foreign policy back 50 years.

A photon is checking into a hotel when the desk worker asks him if he needs help with his luggage. The photon replies, "No, that's okay. I'm traveling light."

Were they traveling through a slit or a revolving door?

Eggs are fantastic for a fitness diet. If you don't like the taste, just add flour, butter, sugar, baking powder, and cocoa powder and bake in a 180C oven for 30 minutes.

Saw on the news that $43 million in cash was found in an empty Nigerian apartment. Poor guy probably spent the last decade trying to share it, but no one responded to his email.

Me, most of the time: People are good at heart and really aren't all that bad.

Me, after reading the comments section on any article or YouTube video: This world can only be cleansed with fire.

Exactly true.

I believe in the 2:7:1 rule. About 20% of humans are genuinely wonderful, so good you feel a little ashamed of yourself when you're around them. 10% are snakes. The rest of us are just doing the best we can with what we've got and trying to leave our little corner a little nicer than how we found it. This is true in NYC or Outer Mongolia. It's hardware.

But the Comments section on a reasonably open forum seem to run about 0:3:7.

To-do list for this weekend:

1. Buy four pigs.
2. Paint numbers 1, 2, 3, and 5 on their backs.
3. Release them in Sam's Club.
4. Sit back and watch management scramble to find number 4.
