CATS! (On The Catnip!)

Tuesday, November 30th, 2010

Seems every week I’m trying to explain to Mell the attraction to cat videos.  It’s generally a losing battle, since it’s not something that can really be put into words, you either get it or you don’t.
 
If you do, here’s six minutes of cats getting up close with their catnip:
 

 
If you don’t here’s some more points for your Rockstar account (although those who love cat videos can have at the code too!)
 

Bonus Code: catnip
Worth: 250 points

Tuesday’s Last Laff

Tuesday, November 30th, 2010

Thanks to Club Q Rockstar Carol for Today’s Last Laff…  
 
A burglar broke into a house one night.  He shined his flashlight around, looking for valuables.  Suddenly a voice in the dark said, ‘Jesus knows you’re here.’
 
He clicked his flashlight off, and froze.  But he heard nothing more.  So after a bit he turned the light back on and continued.
 
Just as he pulled the stereo out so he could disconnect the wires, clear as a bell he heard ‘Jesus is watching you.’
 
Freaked out, he shined his light around frantically, looking for the source of the voice.
 

Finally, in the corner of the room, his flashlight beam came to rest on a parrot.
 
‘Did you say that?’ he hissed at the parrot.
 
‘Yep’, the parrot confessed, and then squawked, ‘I’m just trying to warn you that he is watching you.’
 
The burglar relaxed. ‘Warn me, huh? Who in the world are you?’
 
‘Moses,’ replied the bird.
 
‘Moses?’ the burglar laughed. ‘What kind of people would name a bird Moses?’
 
‘The kind of people that would name a Rottweiler Jesus.’

Monday’s Last Laff

Monday, November 29th, 2010

Thanks to Club Q Rockstar Brian for today’s Last Laff…
 
Two guys are sitting in a Chinese restaurant.   They’re both proudly Jewish.   One asks the other “are there any Jews in China?”
 
“I don’t know…why don’t we ask the waiter?”
 
So when the waiter comes by they ask…”Are there any Chinese Jews?”
 
“I don’t know sir, I will ask”, and the waiter goes back into the kitchen.
 
He comes back a few minutes later.  “No sir.  No Chinese Jews.”
 
“Are you sure?” asks the first guy.   “I check again, sir” says the waiter and his goes back to the kitchen a second time.
 
While he’s gone the guys keep talking.  “I can’t believe there are no Jews in China.  Our people are scattered everywhere.”
 
The waiter returns.  “Sir, no Chinese Jews.”
 
“That’s unbelievable” says one of the guys…no Chinese Jews!”
 
“Sir, I ask everyone” says the waiter.  “We have Orange Jews, Prune Jews, Tomato Jews, Grape Jews, no one ever hear of Chinese Jews!”

Santa’s Sleigh(er)

Friday, November 26th, 2010

Seriously, how often do you ever hear the words “Slayer” and “Christmas” together?  As in side by side?
 
Well one superfan made it happen with Slayer Christmas Lights Lightorama last year and it became an internet sensation: (and a big assist to Greg Williams for sending the vid around the office…)
 

 
But wait, there’s more!  That’s right friends this is where it gets truly mind blowing.  Same house, same light set-up, same YouTube account…totally different music:
 

 
So if you’re keeping score at home, apparently Slayer and Charlie Brown have a little something in common.  Maybe the two can be matched up just like Dark Side Of The Moon and The Wizard Of Oz

The police pull over a driver at midnight.   The officer approaches the driver’s window.
 
“Good evening sir, may I ask where you’re headed?”
 
“I’m on the way to listen to a lecture about the effects of alcohol
and drug abuse on the human body” says the man inside.
 
“Really?” says the cop.  “And who’s going to give a lecture at this time of night?”
 
“My wife”

Thursday’s Last Laff…

Thursday, November 25th, 2010

A sweet grandmother telephoned the brand new Sudbury Regional Hospital.  She timidly asked, “Is it possible to speak to someone who can tell me how a patient is doing?”

The receptionist said, “I’ll be glad to help, dear. What’s the name and room number of the patient?”

In a weak quivering voice, the woman said “Norma Findlay, in Room 302.”

“Let me put you on hold while I check with the nurse’s station for that room.”

After a few minutes, the receptionist came back on and said, “I have good news dear.  Her nurse just told me that Norma is doing very well.  Her blood pressure’s fine; her blood work just came back normal and her physician has scheduled her to be discharged tomorrow.”

The grandmother said, “Thank you. That’s wonderful dear. I was so worried. God bless you for the good news.”

“You’re more than welcome.  Is Norma your daughter?”

“No.  I’m Norma Findlay in Room 302.  Nobody tells me s&*%”

The boss calls an employee into his office.  “I’m transferring you to our Toronto Office.”

“But that place is full of hookers and football players!” says the employee.

“I see” said the boss.  “My wife used to live there!”

“Really…what position did she play?”

What can you do?  Whistle through your nose?  Play Crazy train on your armpit?  I can burp on command!  Not much call for that in everyday life.  But I am particularly impressed with anyone who can recite the alphabet backwards, like this kid…
