VIDEO- Special BLUNT: "Do I Look Illegal?"

By GottaLaff

This webisode of Blunt was a bigger collaborative effort than usual, and for that, ZenShadow and I thank you.

ZenShadow is the one who came up with the concept for this amazing collection of videos, and I edited them together, and then some.

We put the word out on Twitter, and before I knew it, I had 60-plus videos filling my inbox. My video program couldn't handle the load, so sadly, some had to be cut. I apologize deeply for that, because I know the feeling that went into them.

Thank you to every single contributor. You may recognize some faces, and other ones you'll wish you knew better. All are wonderful, caring people.

But the trick question is, which ones are "illegal"?

VIDEO: Roger Ebert speaks! Two thumbs up.

By GottaLaff

Via Daily Beast:

Roger Ebert's battle with thyroid cancer in 2006 has left the critic unable to speak in his own voice—until now. On Tuesday's Oprah, he showed off a new technology that uses archive recordings of his reviews to give Ebert a computerized voice shockingly close to his original. We give it two thumbs up!

I love reading Ebert's tweets on Twitter. I have so much admiration for him, and am thrilled to see him able to have a voice again.

Voter drops support of Gramm-pa McCain because off IWRC* Palin's voice

By GottaLaff

Just heard on the Stephanie Miller show (paraphrased):

I got an email from Sharon in Seattle that says her friend is not voting for McCain any more because she can't stand the thought of hearing Sarah Palin's voice.

IWRC* Palin does it again.
