Vote Palin…Michael that is

Posted by Ed on 22 September 2008

It’s just a pity that the ex-Python and globetrotter isn’t eligible to stand for US president. The world would be a much better place with him in charge. For more on why he’s the best non-candidate for the job, go here.

Star Wars rap

Posted by Ed on 25 September 2007

Continuing the theme of jokers having fun at the expense of genre icons, I give you MC Vader and gang. Warning – contains profanity.

Very silly but definitely much more entertaining than the unofficial Star Wars: The Musical. I debated about including the link but you are probably old enough to make up your own mind and deal with any suffering that may ensue but please, don’t click on it.

I did warn you.
