Around the Campfire

Every now and again I run into something that makes me laugh. So, when I run across something during the week, I plan on posting it on Fridays.

Apparently, there was a mis-translation of the A-Ha song "Take on Me." For those that do not know, A-Ha is a Norwegian band. Thus, after all these years, someone has come along and made the correct translation from Norwegian into English. The song makes sense now! Take a look!

Finally, definitive proof that "space aliens" exist!

"What do aliens have to do with Halloween?"

With the election over, the down hill run of our most beloved president has begun. What are people like Roy Zimmerman going to do? Here is video/song relating to GWB's foreign policy and keeping up with the spirit of Dwayne's last story.

I never knew what kind of Pandora's Box was opened with Dwayne's story a few weeks ago. Now I know.

This picture has been floating around for a while, but it is a favorite of a loyal reader of this blog. Thus, I thought I would post it for Friday fun. Here is the 1954 view of the home computer of 2004. They were so close it is scary!

It is the day after Thanksgiving, but how could I post Friday Fun on a Thursday? In any event, here is a blast from the past! It is one of the finest moments in Thanksgiving Day special-type episodes. I bring you "Turkey's Away". Enjoy!

Now that Thanksgiving is over, the real war on Christmas can begin. However, I would like to extend this holiday greeting from the Happy Tree Friends.

David Letterman's new holiday tradition.

This guy probably got a serious beating for this political statement, but it sums up how I feel about this administration's governance. Thus, I find the video cathartic. Thus, here is one of the many edited versions of the news conference coverage.

Now that one of the major holidays is over, we bring you this a two part blast from the past. It is a classic! I wonder how close it is to Gone with the Wind (I have never seen that movie.) Happy Boxing Day!

Part One

Part Two

I don't know what is more frightening -- the fact that someone wrote this song and got it recorded -- or that they made a video of it. Brace yourselves!

This is hysterical! Bill O'Reilly's hypocrisy burns...

This was one of my favorite Monty Python sketches when I was a kid.

Science can be fun if you just "Look Around You". Today, we're looking at sulfur! Get your copy books out!

This is exactly how I remember the "Wrath of Khan"

A scene from one of my favorite movies! Thanks Ranger Brad.

Remember that time you crapped 20 golf balls?

I would be remiss if I didn't include this.

I would totally watch this.

I don't think I'll be purchasing this.

It isn't perfect, but it is still pretty good.

A mash up of two of my favorite things -- soft woolen mittens and whiskers on kittens. Wait! no! That was something else.

A salute to the bold Star Trek security men (and women.) - in honor of the new movie in theaters today!

Here is a two-fer because there was nothing last week...

This is for Michael Jackson...

For the next several Fridays, we're going to bring you something special.

The next stop in our tour.
