I think Norm McDonald is really funny. But his comedy doesn't fit into doing several different characters each week. He only has the one.

Go with your first feeling. The card is either gonna be a kick in the head, or make him think you want him back.

WHile I secretly may or may not agree that Carvel makes the best ice cream cake in the entire world, there is no official ice cream cake of the FB unless it is a cake from Friendly's. Though their ice cream pies kicked their ice cream cake's ass.

Dennis Miller couldn't act, either, but at least Weekend Update was funny. Norm had WU + the Larry King parody.

I hate most of his movies, but he had the highest grossing comedy in the history of the world or some shit: Meet the Fockers (2004): Total US Gross: $279,167,575

That buys him like 10 more flops.

No.

If he's sad, do something else that would be nice (like buy him a video game he would enjoy or something) for him some other time. Don't connect anything to your marriage or your anniversary or you and him in any way. You want your marriage to be over. You don't want him thinking there are residual feelings that mean you are in any way open to the idea of the two of you getting back together. People seize onto these things, ignoring everything else to the contrary. Especially when they're all sad and shit.

+ Burt Reynolds on Jeopardy, which is, inexplicably, really fucking funny.

That was a very nice way to tell me that I don't have a clue as to what the heck I am talking about.

I thought Norm was fired b/c one of the honchos at NBC was a friend of OJ's and disliked Norm's OJ jokes, but Norm wouldn't stop doing them.

To learn more about my fake accent, go to the "toys" section and play couple of rounds of the "Whit yay lookin it?" game. Turn on the sound.

And Bob Dole -- how can you forget Bob Dole? ("Ask me about being a war hero!")

His Burt Reynolds (on Jeopardy!) was good also.

Not true. Bob Dole on Real World was very funny. I know it. You know it. And the American people know it.

The WWE could take some pointers from these guys. Did anyone tivo this?

"Spectators cheered as entire Cambodian Midget Fighting League squared off against African Lion

The fight was slated when an angry fan contested Yang Sihamoni, President of the CMFL, claiming that one lion could defeat his entire league of 42 fighters.

.
.
.

The Cambodian Government allowed the fight to take place, under the condition that they receive a 50% commission on each ticket sold, and that no cameras would be allowed in the arena.

The fight was called in only 12 minutes, after which 28 fighters were declared dead, while the other 14 suffered severe injuries including broken bones and lost limbs, rendering them unable to fight back.

Sihamoni was quoted before the fight stating that he felt since his fighters out-numbered the lion 42 to 1, that they “… could out-wit and out-muscle [it].”

Unfortunately, he was wrong."
