Comedy Is What We Need ...

I'm sick of Reality TV. However, the show I can't miss is the Last Comic Standing. And it isn't even the "reality" TV part that I enjoy anyway. I've always loved watching comedians. When I was younger and HBO was just invented (man I feel old) and for some reason we had it for free for about 4 years in the 80's there were many comedy specials.

My two favorite ones were Robin Williams Live at the Met and Bill Cosby Himself, I didn't get to see Eddie Murphy Raw or Delirious till I was well into High School. These are classic comedy specials that were so funny to watch over and over because the material was truly funny. I think we need more funny shows today.

And Today, Thursday July 29th premieres a brand new show called Blue Collar TV (on the WB at 8:00pm 1/2 hour show) and tonight we find who made it though the wildcard set on Last Comic Standing (If it is Ant I'm going to scream!)

I think we need more comedy in our lives. The news is so depressing and we need to find a way to laugh, even if it is for a 1/2 hour break in the misery. I'm adding a section of links to the sidebar for Comedian's web pages. These are comedians that I've seen live or on TV. Support a comedy club. There are many in Boston and Providence. I went a little crazy with the links. I found 39 comedians websites that I linked to. If you have a favorite comedian that I haven't added please let me know and I'll find their website to add to the links.

(Disclaimer: some comedians have material that may not be suitable, suitable for whom, you decide.)

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
