British Couple Seized And Taken Hostage By Pirates!

These poor folks were abducted by Somalian pirates! Oh no...say it aint so. The ocean should be a tranquil place. If you are out to sea on a boat, it should be enjoyable. But not for this couple. They were interviewed about the ordeal.

Whew...glad they are ok now.

Maybe next time their trip will sound more like this song!

Conan O' Brien And Corey Booker: A Couple Of Jive Turkeys

Conan O'Brien and Newark Mayor Cory Booker turned their frivolous feud about the gritty city into comedy on NBC's "Tonight Show" on Friday...(read story)

Well, that's how it's suppose to be done. When two grown men start in on one another, the best thing they can do is go on national television and make it into a joke. No need to really bother each other. Especially when you can make people laugh about it. Laughter is the key to comedy, by the way.

Hey, you know Thanksgiving is coming, right? I figure, while on the topic of a couple of Jive Turkeys...I'd throw this one at ya!
Have some fun out there...

Stop lyin'!
heh heh heh...
Guess what? I just saw Michael Jackson! Yeah! He was signin' autographs down the way about an hour ago. He was surrounded by a bunch of Native American Indians. They were askin' him about the song 'Beat It' and how they wished they had that song to play to the settlers...heh heh heh...
But seriously...you heard that new song he got? Me neither, but you can read about it...
Here is a little bit about it:

"With a familiar high-pitched voice counting off one-two-three-four, a new Michael Jackson single debuted online Monday, prompting a hasty response from the singer's estate after Paul Anka revealed he was the song's co-writer...." (Keep Reading Article?)
