SNL References

Sometimes art imitates life. Other times life imitates art. This last week on vacation I ran across the latter, twice.

The first happened when my Grandma was telling us about her trip to Georgia. The topic of Joshua's luscious locks came up. I joked that my aunt and uncle bought him the following:



Upon further review, I am now convinced that his hair IS a toupee. You can be the judge:


The second happened upon our check-in at the Madonna Inn. Christina and I had our first experience with a bidet in our room. Normally, this wouldn't have been a big deal and we would have viewed it as a nice touch in our room. However the skit below gave us a running joke for the week.



On an unrelated note, pictures and non-SNL details of our vacation will be posted soon.

I (Heart) Robot

One of the blogs I read, Pop Candy, has a couple of random robot posts today that I thought I would pass along. Ok, maybe they aren't random because of the Transformers movie, but these videos are great nonetheless.

This video may have started the robot theme earlier in the week. A must view if you love either The Office or Mr. Roboto.

***



A great music video featuring a robot.

***



This video was on the pilot episode of Flight of the Conchords, which is very Napoleon Dynamite if you haven't seen it yet. "Binary solo."

***



I thought it was time to show you a real robot. It may not be quite as impressive as the robot chair, but it still has mad skillz.

Finally, I can't think about robots (or old people) without recalling this classic SNL commercial.

TV Links

If you are looking for pictures of Dillon come back later in the week. For now I will provide some excellent links regarding the boob tube.

Still can't get enough of 24, try reading the hilarious top 100 Jack Bauer facts. But here is fact #101: Jack better start killing some more people in season 6, because he has a ways to go to get to his season 4 high of 44.

Now that Lost is back from its winter hiatus, find some answers from the show's creators. And if the A Clockwork Orange scene in last week's episode wasn't creepy enough, take a look at it running backwards and the trippy message that accompanies it.

Finally, Rainn Wilson of The Office will be hosting SNL on February 24th. To prepare, please read a list of all the pranks Jim has pulled on Dwight.
