Bill Cosby buzzkills us all with a good point

JD's quotes:




In Bill Cosby's famous ''Bill Cosby, Himself'' stand-up special he did a lot of famous material. Many can't go to a dentists without thinking of Doctor Cosby and some can't live one day with children without thinking of this routine, especially when a child utters the phrase ''I don't know'' in a pathetic, brain-damaged sort of way. Cosby also does a bit about drugs where he poses this question (which several annoying celebrity icons should ask themselves):




''And I said to a guy, I said uh- ''Tell me, you know, what is it about cocaine, that makes it so wonderful?'' and the guy said ''Well, . . . it intensifies your personality.'' and I said ''Yes, but what if you're an A--hole?''

Hey, wait a minute, does that mean that us folks with real nice personalities should maybe-never mind, it was just a thought, I won't bring it up again. Forget I even said anything.

A poor review of the comic stylings of Muhammad Ali

JD's quotes:

The Muhammad Ali VS Ernie Terrell fight in 1967 is now known as the ''What's my name?'' fight. About a week after the fight took place ABC's Wide World of Sports saw Howard Cosell and Muhammad Ali watching a tape of the fight and discussing it. They watched selected rounds from the fight only, not the full bout. This review saw one of many funny exchanges between the legendary heavyweight champion and the accomplished sports journalist.

Howard Cosell and Muhammad Ali's verbal exchanges were frequently amusing as Ali found an often sympathetic but not at all submissive man in the media.

During the ABC presentation with Cosell and Ali sitting in chairs next to each other, and watching the fight together, after Ali gives an answer Cosell finds well put:

Cosell: You are NOT a stupid boy. Let's look at rounds-

Ali speaking over him: Thank you Howard, you're not as dumb as you look

Cosell: . . . Let's look at rounds 14 and 15 . . .They should be coming up in just a second . . . Stop smiling-you're not so funny.

This was followed by Ali and Cosell chuckling at themselves.

JD's quotes:


Pardon my Latin. Anyway, having received a request for quotes from The Sopranos, I thought I'd give you my favorite.


HBO's 'The Sopranos': James Gandolfini as Tony Soprano

Tony: What is that?
Irina [His Russian girlfriend]: Chicken Soup for the Soul
Tony: Should read 'Tomato sauce for your ass', it's the Italian version.

A prepared statement from former Sheriff Con Stapleton:

JD's quotes:


We've had a request for more Deadwood quotes, so we'll do a few this week now that I've had a chance to rewatch several episodes. Check out our new Completely Inane Blog Survey this week on the right hand side of the screen and vote for your least likable character. As far as the survey goes, keep in mind, the actors may be great, I'm just talking about the characters, that's all.

This quote is from a scene where Con Stapleton, Cy Tolliver's henchman and former Deadwood Sheriff stands outside the room of an actress who'd previously sunken just low enough to get jiggy with him. He pulls out a piece of paper to read from and recites a romantic plea to her door.


Peter Jason as Con Stapleton on HBO's brilliantly written and poorly ended series, Deadwood:


''I prayed it would pass...but it's a constant f*ckin' sore spot N' throb. You are a constant vision before me...you and your fabulous bosoms. I beg you, release your Man-Stallion from his He-Stable for another gallop 'round the ring.''





Stay tuned for more Deadwood quotes this week, although most won't be quite as sentimental...it IS Deadwood after all.

Is Skeletor Really A Saint?

Lucy's quotes:







We don't usually quote a website but...I really had to this time. I stumbled upon a small faction of people who celebrate St. Skeletor's Day...If you've never heard of the holiday of which I speak, here's a quote from the #1 St. Skeletor's Day site:


''St Skeletor's Day is a non-commercial alternative to the corporate whorefest that is St Valentine's Day.''

Lucy's special note: Not all people have a problem with whorefests per say. I for instance, have nothing personal against them. Whores are cool, fests are nifty...put 'em both together and whoohoo! Corporate whorefests on the other hand are just not very festive by and large. I know, I've been to a few. The punch is awful, the music is usually ABBA, Rush and Styx...Maybe you should consider celebrating St. Skeletor's Day this year but if you like to take a reformist approach and change St. Valentine's day from within the system, you might start by making the corporate whorefest more festive and getting creative...
...

... so, anyways... we got videos for ya!


For anyone who grew up on these cartoons, here's two hilarious Skeletor videos-the dialogue, it should be obvious, is fake but I have to give props to the anti-Thundercats campaign:
