Like Shooting Turkeys in a Barrel

I know it’s sorta beyond schadenfreude at this point, but this is just too good.

With over two million views on YouTube so far, the odds are good that you’ve seen this already. But just in case you haven’t, it’s worth a look.

I don’t know what’s funnier: the fact that former veep candidate Sarah Palin was filmed doing an interview in front of a turkey slaughter right after pardoning a Thanksgiving turkey, or some of the actual answers she gave during the interview.

Here’s a sampler, in answer to a question about what her future plans are:

“Reining in the growth of government, plans that have to do with helping to govern this state and building this team that is continually being built to provide good services to Alaskans.”

Wow, she can’t become a footnote to history fast enough.

–lori.

    I’d heard about this video but hadn’t seen it, so thanks for posting it.

    Hee hee, that’s Spinners, not “Soinners.”

    Wow. Between her and the pit bull with lipstick? I pick the mutt.

    No brainer really. Go with the smarter mammal whenever possible. Plus I don’t think she’d even KNOW the meaning of the word……”fetch”! :>

The word I left the theater with was "boring." Johhny Depp is a marvel, but there was little else there besides a handful of amazing visuals that I'd love to have as posters on my wall, but not as a 108-minute movie.

Edge of Darkness

Mel Gibson does a good angry face, but the British TV series this was based on was sooooo much better.

Crazy Heart

Loved the music, loved Jeff Bridges. But I'm sorry, Maggie Gyllenhaal nearly ruined it for me. Is it too much to ask the Bridges' character might fall for someone in, I don't know, maybe her *thirties* or something?

Completely ridiculous but oddly endearing. Sorta like Robert Downey Jr.

Fantastic. So simple, so small, but kinda perfect. And very on point with the current economic situation.

The day a filmmaker with an actual story to tell ("unobtanium?!" hilarious.) gets his or hands and this amazing visual technology, that will be something.
