I think it was VH1 tonight where i saw they were counting down the top 100 funniest TV moments. (Remember when VH1 had videos). I refuse to watch almost anything on VH1 but it got my wife and me talking about what we thought was the funniest moments. Fell free to add your own..... My number one funniest moment was in the tv show Taxi when the Reverend Jim was taking his driving test. Maybe it was because i was only 12 or 13 when it aired but it still makes me laugh...Christopher Llyod is brilliant! Rev. Jim's driving test

I would love to see Coop come out and just fire on his guys with something like "I'm sick and tired of seeing my guys come out of the pen and go 2-0 or 3-1 to their first batter....this will not be tolerated anymore" say something other than the usual "We're working on some things and we hope to get it all straightened out very soon"

I'm at work so i have to ask....was any of Aardsma's pitches even close to being a strike??? If you are 3-0 to Hunter and you know he's going to take at least 1 pitch and you STILL can't get a strike.....then it's time to head to the minors

one night my wife and i went out to dinner and proceededto have one of the worst nights out possible. The waitress was slow, rude, couldn't get our orders right, and not very attentive at all. (it was a tuesday night so it wasn't really busy). It would have been one thing if maybe the waitress was new or having a bad night and apologized or something but it was not happening. As i paid with my credit card, i stressed to the lady ringing me out i was not happy about my experience and got an apology from her. I mentioned this as i put a big fat 0 on the tip line of my credit slip. About a week later, i saw the charge and i was overcharged by $20. I got my slip and prinout from the bank and threw a fit at the restaurant. i did get some gift certificates which i never did use but i felt better walking in there during the dinner rush on a friday and complained. It would have only have been better if the particular waitress would have been working that night because i really believe it was her who put the extra charge on there.

QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ May 25, 2007 -> 08:37 PM) If you read more attentively, you'd notice that Dukes has not been confirmed as leaving the message. But, f*** it, he fits the black ghetto stereotype so we might as well just throw benefit of the doubt out the window. i don't exactly hear the denials flying from his lawyers either. That doesn't comfirm anything but hell...considering his past if he truly didn't do it, he would be denying like crazy....not worried about his video game.

May 25, 2007 -- BELOVED Howard Stern-sidekick Artie Lange says he's leaving the radio broadcast next January after more than six years with the radio program. Lange made the announcement yesterday, live on the air, stunning his colleagues and even catching Stern off guard. "I just feel burned out," Lange told The Post. He has been juggling the pre-dawn hours of "Stern," a brutal stand-up comedy touring schedule, a recurring role on "Rescue Me" and a guest spot on "Entourage." All the work comes just as Lange tries to battle a long-term drug and alcohol addiction, depression and poor eating habits that have pushed his weight to over 300 lbs. "Nothing is set in stone, but it's something I'm seriously thinking about. The schedule is destroying me. I love the show, and I love the people. I'm just really concerned about my health," he says. During a recent physical, a doctor told Lange that he needed to make some sort of a change in lifestyle or risk death. "I have to find a happy balance . . . none of this is going to be worth it if I drop dead at a Best Western in Milwaukee," he says. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I haven't heard Howard since he went to Sirius but i remember Artie and his contributions to the show. I'm glad to hear he's taking some sort of charge of his health and that the Stern show has made him enough money that he can afford to quit and MAYBE cut back on the touring. Though I do see him dying at a Best Western in Milwaukee kind of fitting for him

Some late Friday Scrubs news..... A reliable and tested source just told us NBC is picking up 18 new episodes of “Scrubs” for next season. Apparently the sitcom got renewed later than "The Office," "30 Rock" and "My Name Is Earl" because Disney and NBC were dickering over money. NBC will help compensate for the short "Scrubs" order with more "Office." E! Online reported late Thursday that four of "The Office's" 24 episodes next season will be full hours. NBC announces its fall slate Monday. Zack Braff hosts the season finale of “Saturday Night Live” the following weekend.

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip - Hamas militants have enlisted the iconic Mickey Mouse to broadcast their message of Islamic dominion and armed resistance to their most impressionable audience _ little kids. A giant black-and-white rodent _ named "Farfour," or "butterfly," but unmistakably a Mickey ripoff _ does his high-pitched preaching against the U.S. and Israel on a children's show run each Friday on Al-Aqsa TV, a station run by Hamas. The militant group, sworn to Israel's destruction, shares power in the Palestinian government. "You and I are laying the foundation for a world led by Islamists," Farfour squeaked on a recent episode of the show, which is titled, "Tomorrow's Pioneers." "We will return the Islamic community to its former greatness, and liberate Jerusalem, God willing, liberate Iraq, God willing, and liberate all the countries of the Muslims invaded by the murderers." Children call in to the show, many singing Hamas anthems about fighting Israel. Israel has long complained that the Palestinian airwaves are filled with incitement. An Israeli organization that monitors Palestinian media, Palestinian Media Watch, said the Mickey Mouse lookalike takes "every opportunity to indoctrinate young viewers with teachings of Islamic supremacy, hatred of Israel and the U.S., and support of 'resistance,' the Palestinian euphemism for terror." The television station would not comment. A spokeswoman from Walt Disney Co.'s headquarters in Burbank, Calif., did not immediately return messages asking for comment about the use of a Disney-like character. Yehia Moussa, a Hamas leader in the movement's Gaza Strip base, denied inciting children against Jews. "Our problem is not with the Jews. Our problem is with the (Israeli) occupation and the occupiers," Moussa said. Israeli officials denounced the program. David Baker, an official in Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's office, said, "There is nothing comic about inciting young generations of Palestinians to hate Israelis." Foreign Ministry spokesman Mark Regev called the program "outrageous" and charged that the Palestinians have not carried out their commitments to stop incitement of hatred toward Israel. "Children are taught that killing Jews is a good thing," he said. "Children are taught to hate Jews and to hate nonbelievers." In strife-ridden Gaza, however, dreams of Islamic dominion and animosity toward the U.S. and Israel are widespread. A Gaza-based psychologist said the program proved that the culture of glorifying violence had penetrated Palestinian society. "It's the fault of both (Israel and the Palestinians)," said Samir Zakkout, from the Gaza Community Mental Health Program. "If Palestinians had peace, children wouldn't learn violence." Children have been traumatized by bloodshed in the course of Israeli attacks and Palestinian infighting, he said. "There's been a collapse of values," he said. "If I can kill my enemy, I can kill my brother." Basem Abu Sumaya, head of the Palestinian Broadcasting Corp., said such programming was inappropriate. "I don't think it's professional or even humane to use children in such harsh political programs," Abu Sumaya said. "Children's nationalist spirit must be developed differently." The Palestinian Broadcasting Corp. is controlled by Hamas' political rival, the Fatah movement of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.. Hamas loyalists launched the Al Aqsa satellite channel last year. Bearded young men read the news, often offering live news broadcasts. Islamic music is layered over footage of masked militants firing rockets into Israel. But the channel also broadcasts talk shows, programs about the disabled and cartoons. Nothing like starting with them young

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Tom Poston, the tall, pasty-faced comic who found fame and fortune playing a clueless everyman on such hit television shows as "Newhart" and "Mork and Mindy," has died. He was 85. Poston, who was married to Suzanne Pleshette of "The Bob Newhart Show," died Monday night at home after a brief illness, a family representative, Tanner Gibson, said Tuesday. The nature of his illness was not disclosed. Bob Newhart remembered Poston as a "versatile and veteran performer and a kind-hearted individual." "Tom was always the 'go-to guy' on 'Newhart' in addition to being a good and longtime friend," Newhart said in a statement Tuesday. Poston's run as a comic bumbler began with "The Steve Allen Show" after Allen plucked the character actor from the Broadway stage to join an ensemble of eccentrics he would conduct "man in the street" interviews with. Don Knotts was the shaky Mr. Morrison, Louis Nye was the suave, overconfident Gordon Hathaway and Poston's character was so unnerved by the television cameras that he couldn't remember who he was. He won an Emmy playing "The Man Who Can't Remember His Name." But when Allen moved the show from New York to Los Angeles in 1959, Poston stayed behind. "Hollywood's not for me right now; I'm a Broadway cat," he told a reporter at the time. When he did finally move west, he quickly began appearing in variety shows, sitcoms and films. His movie credits included "Cold Turkey," "The Happy Hooker," "Rabbit Test" and, more recently, "Christmas With the Kranks," "Beethoven's 5th" and "The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement." On "Mork and Mindy," which starred Robin Williams as a space alien, Poston was Franklin Delano Bickley, the mindless boozer with the annoying dog. On "Newhart," he was George Utley, the handyman who couldn't fix anything at the New England inn that Bob Newhart ran. And on Newhart's show "Bob," he was the star's dim-bulb former college roommate. "These guys are about a half-step behind life's parade," Poston commented in a 1983 interview. "The ink on their instruction sheets is beginning to fade. But they can function and cope and don't realize they are driving people up the walls. "In ways I don't like to admit, I'm a goof-up myself," Poston continued. "It's an essential part of my character. When these guys screw up it reminds me of my own incompetence with the small frustrations of life." Goof-up or not, Poston was a versatile actor who made his Broadway debut in 1947 playing five roles in Jose Ferrer's "Cyrano de Bergerac." One role called for him to engage in a duel, fall 10 feet, roll across the stage and vanish into the orchestra pit. Other actors had auditioned and failed but Poston, who in his youth had been an acrobat with the Flying Zepleys, did the stunt perfectly. He went on to play secondary roles in Broadway comedies and starred at regional theaters in such shows as "Romanoff and Juliet" and "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum." For 10 years he was also a panelist on the popular TV quiz show "To Tell the Truth." He made guest appearances on scores of television shows, including "Studio One," "The Phil Silvers Show," "The Defenders," "Get Smart," "The Bob Newhart Show," "The Love Boat," "St. Elsewhere," "The Simpsons," "Coach," "Murphy Brown," "Home Improvement," "Touched by an Angel," "Will & Grace," "Dream On," "Just Shoot Me!" and "That '70s Show." Poston and his first wife, Jean Sullivan, had a daughter, Francesca, before their marriage ended in divorce. He married his second wife, Kay Hudson, after they met while appearing in the St. Louis Light Opera, and they had a son, Jason, and daughter, Hudson. Poston and Pleshette, who had appeared together in the 1959 Broadway play "The Golden Fleecing," had had a brief fling before marrying other people. Both now widowed, they reunited in 2000 and married the following year. Their paths had crossed on "The Bob Newhart Show" in the 1970s. Poston made several guest appearances on the sitcom in which Pleshette played Newhart's wife. In 2006, Pleshette underwent chemotherapy for lung cancer that her agent said was caught at an early stage. Born in Columbus, Ohio, on Oct. 17, 1921, Thomas Poston moved from city to city as a child as his father hunted for work during the Depression. As a teenager, he made money as a boxer. Following two years at Bethany College, he enlisted in the Army Air Corps and flew troops to the European war zone during World War II. Hunting for a postwar occupation, Poston read an interview with Charles Jehlinger, creative head of the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and was inspired to sign up for a two-year course at the Academy. Besides Pleshette, 70, Poston is survived by his children, Francesca Poston of Nashville, Tenn., Jason Poston of Los Angeles and Hudson Poston of Portland, Ore. A private service was planned for immediate family. Details of a public memorial service were to be announced later. --- Poston, who was married to Suzanne Pleshette of "The Bob Newhart Show"??? Boy..talk about someone who married out of his league I always thought the guy was good at what he does. This one's for you
