Video: Arizona Governor Jan Brewer Loses Her Teeth!
This is old but a friend of mine just posted it on Facebook so this was the first time I was seeing it. After her pitiful performance at the Governor debate last week, I felt like piling on and re-posting this - strictly for yuks! Just watch 'til the end to see what I'm talking about....

ItsTheReal presents Hype Men, a hip-hop comedy podcast
Was wondering what had happened to these dudes! They're back.....
"Today we're debuting a new part of the ItsTheReal family: Hype Men, a hip-hop comedy podcast presented by @ItsTheReal and @JensenClan88!
Hype Men is like a tree house built of metaphors and Jay-Z lyrics; it's a talk amongst friends that'll branch out into Best Week Ever territory; a place to start off discussing Cam'ron's oeuvre and end up talking about Sesame Street's The Count, with the two topics somehow tying together in a very seven degrees of Kevin Bacon game-type way.
This week's guest is Blacksmith rapper and twitter killer Jean Grae. We discuss BBQing with Lil' Mama + run-ins with Tyrese + Slo 'Down vs. Nelly + Talib Kweli's collaboration with Gucci Mane + Michael J. Fox's bucket list + more!"
BTW, as I'm listening to this podcast let me just say: if you're one of the people who unfollowed Talib Kweli on twitter in protest of his protest of his collab with Gucci Mane, GO KILL YOURSELF - you're the worst kind of loser!

Music Video: Jasiri X - Just A Minstrel
Bamboozled again!
New video directed by Paradise Gray of X-Clan featuring Jasiri X, Isada Tariq and Living Proofe.
One quibble though - Jasiri, is it possible to actually 'dress nekkid'??
So are Gucci, Waka Flocka, Plies, Rick Ross, Wayne, T-Pain and 50 cent et al. modern-day minstrels in your opinion?

The Fine Brothers - Mousetrap Never Works (OK Go Video Parody)
Funny parody of OK Go's "This Too Shall Pass" but I thought Mousetrap's hey day was in the 70's, no? I don't think anyone under the age of 35 even really has any nostalgia for it, do they??

Sigh... Yet Another Conservative Anti-Gay Activist Turns Out To Be Gay!
*Smh....* Rentboy.com??!? LOL!!! Seriously though, how many times I'm gonna read this story? Pretty much at this point in the game if you're one of these so-called religious right, conservative anti-gay activist obsessives, I'm gonna assume you're probably covering up for the fact that you're really actually gay....
Seriously though (not really), the entire story of George Rekers' week-long vacation in Europe with a male prostitute is pure comedy. Read about it on Huff Post HERE.

Goldman Sachs Executives Cheered the Housing Market's Decline, Newly Released E-mails Show
WTF??!?
Between this, the recently-launched SEC investigation into alleged Goldman Sachs Civil Mortgage Fraud and the ongoing outrageous bonuses still being paid out on Wall Street, methinks President Obama will have a much easier time getting Financial Reform passed than he did healthcare. Thanks goodness!

In Living Color Celebrates its 20th Anniversary Today!
Reading In Jail:
Wanda's Blind Date:
Crystal Waters - Gypsy Woman (Parody)
Jim Carrey - Impostor (Snow parody):
I used to love this show when it was first on in the 90's but to my surprise I actually thought it had weathered better than I would have expected and had become funnier with age when I caught some reruns on BET a couple years ago.
Everyone always remembers Men on Film, Homey Da Clown, Wanda and Fire Marshall Bob but there were a bunch of other gems in that show and they used to have musical performances by hip hop cats when The Tonight Show and Letterman didn't wanna know (well I guess some things haven't changed that much in the past 20 years!) and other options were limited, no disrespect to Arsenio, of course....
With now-superstars, Jim Carrey, Jamie Foxx and J-Lo as well as David Alan Grier, Tommy Davidson and, for better or worse, the Wayans Bros. all having come from the show you have to give In Living Color its proper due. Creator, Kenan Ivory Wayans always said he wanted to create a Black version of SNL. Maybe that goal wasn't quite met but its legacy might still have been almost as impactful in its own way in the end. Salute!
