Is it Funny? Or is it Just Sad?

I'm just wondering... maybe it's both?

Georgie's Wish - a Three Minute Short by Michael Granberry

Another fantastic film (if fantastic equals seemingly sweet and touching but ultimately ghoulish and macabre) from my boyfriend, Michael Granberry.

This is "Georgie's Wish." If you enjoy, please click the ad at the end of the film, which puts some coins into my Michael's pockets for more films and to take me out for cheeseburgers and martinis. And please leave your comments too! Enjoy!

More of Michael's work can be found at The Red Hatchet Films Movie Page

Exploding Whale

You've got to love any video where you can hear the line, "..everyone on the scene was covered with small particles of dead whale."

Plus, now we know what McNuggets are made of.

...When You're Bored

Uh, don't try this at home... unless you're really cool and have a stupid friend who never gets any wiser.

Far from the meanest games i've ever heard of kids playing. I'm sure there was meaner when I was a kid, but i can't remember any at the moment, can you?

Vern Troyer and His Geico Commercial are Funny...

But what's with the "It's My Birthday" line in the rap. I don't get it.

...And What Would You Do?

A few days ago, an anonymous blogger submitted a lengthy comment telling me how much they enjoyed the content of the site, how it always put a smile on their face, which was invaluable to them as their life was very difficult. No mention of specifics, but they went on to tell me that they had been dealing with mental instability and depression for years and had made more than one attempt at suicide, and was in fact planning another attempt this very weekend.

"I spent the whole day today at work planning on using my weekend to prepare for a massive overdose and since I have no family, I actually made a list of things to prepare so no one has to worry about my life insurance policy, my debts, etc. I have so many left over medications (at least 20 bottles or so) that if I took them all together, I don't think I'd suffer, let alonoe, lay there waiting. I even decided to write a personal letter to those friends of mine. Suicide is one of the most mysterious things I deal with, especially as a bipolar."

My initial reaction was to respond immediately, but then I reconsidered. The idea of taking any level of responsibility for a stranger, a person I know nothing - zero! - about, took me to a more sensible solution, which is to simply say to that person if they're reading this - find someone in your world who has a vested concern in your well-being and ongoing happiness and talk to them. If you don't have a person like that, call a suicide hotline. Express your feelings to someone - anyone - lots of people who have more training in handling this sort of thing are out there, and ready to help you.

Short of that, I wonder if there is more I am supposed to do. What would you do?

...When I'm Debating a Third Slice of Pizza

This barely recognisable snake bit off more than it could chew when it snacked a pregnant ewe.

Kitty is PISSED!

Must have seen all the recent dog activity on my blog and decided a simple brush up against my leg wouldn't be enough. It's the Willy Loman of the feline world. ATTENTION MUST BE PAID! A CAT IS NOT AN ORANGE!

Narcoleptic Dogs! Who Knew....the Funny

Skeeter the Narcoleptic Dog doesn't look all that miserable to me, despite what they say in the video below. After all, how miserable can you be when...

1. You get free anti-depressants
2. You get to be stroked with every meal
3. You get to be on INSIDE EDITION
4. Whenever someone's squalling brat grandkid comes over to pull your tail and wrap a rubber band around your snout, you can play dead and the grown-ups make Junior leave you alone.

Granted, his name is Skeeter, and he has to live in Idaho with a family named CHUBBUCK. But come on, this is a life worth trading for!

This one is even funnier! Trot-trot-trot-trot- THUNK! Rusty, the canine Chevy Chase!
