Tis quite enjoyable! Pork and Beans
This year, the Smurfs turn 50. I shared this info with a co-worker who sent me this.
From the YouTube description
Unicef commercial against war.
Designed as a UNICEF advertisement, and with the approval of the family of the Smurfs’ late creator Peyo, the 25-second episode was shown on the national evening news after the 9pm timeslot to avoid children seeing it. The scene starts with happy peaceful Smurfs and butterflies, who are then bombed by warplanes, ending with a lone Baby Smurf surrounded by dead Smurfs. The final frame bears the message: “Don’t let war affect the lives of children.”

Pretty cool. These College Democrat leaders asked college folk who they should endorse using a combination of YouTube and Facebook. The response was strong and overwhelmingly in support of Senator Obama. Hope the other superdelegates come around soon as well.
Go new media!

YouTube Interviews Ralph Nader

I’ll be honest. I got issues with Ralph. I don’t blame him for the 2000 election. I blame the voters.
More seriously, I question whether running for president is the best way to bring about the radical change he wants. His premise is that his campaigns (because they surely will not become actual presidencies) help promote issues and move the debate.
Really? So over the last eight years, America has been engaged in a more honest discussion of war-making and corporate malfeasance than before? That I don’t buy.
There are some cool moments in the interview, though, and Olivia Ma of YouTube does a good job keeping it moving. I actually like the “silent” questionnaire at the end. Perhaps it’s because I’m just tired of hearing Nader speak.

Why I Love YouTube - Damned Idiotic Users

Months ago, someone posted on one of my standup videos that I was a “dumbass libral crackhead welfare sucker.” I loved that so much, I added it to my press kit.
Now the ante has been raised. I just got this via YouTube email
From: jacob1975wSubject: sUPYou look hideous in your profile picture (very low and thin forehead (resulting in a very small cranial space which in turn results in a much smaller then average brain size and fr You look hideous in your profile picture (very low and thin forehead (resulting in a very small cranial space which in turn results in a much smaller then average brain size and from the looks of it possible mental retardation) ape-face and a simian shelf jaw) perhaps this could explain all the hollering and dancing around like a retard- you dont even look human, sorry to tell you but someone was bound to say this. This is what you look like barantunde.
Also, I should add, you have NO NECK. Couldnt amount to being more then a comic? SHIT
There are a lot of stupid people, and the Internet gives all of them the tools to express themselves. Also, dude misspelled my name.
I love these guys. Occasionally do standup at their live sketch shows.
