Shatner emotes Palin

28 July, 2009 (21:43) | amusing | By: xensen

Can emote be a transitive verb? Anyway, it was genius to have William Shatner read Sarah Palin’s farewell speech as pseudobeat poetry. I’d like to post a video, but apparently NBC prefers not to publicize its shows, as their video is not embeddable, unless you want to be threatened with legal action. Humor them: make them happy and click the image to view the video at their own site.

Contextual advertising

This strikes me as a funny juxtaposition. Because I posted the cartoon shown in the following screenshot, adsense as been serving up a McCain campaign ad. Welcome, McCain supporters!

The true, authentic lyrics:

Deck us all with Boston Charlie,
Walla Walla, Wash., an’ Kalamazoo!
Nora’s freezin’ on the trolley,
Swaller dollar cauliflower alley-garoo!

Don’t we know archaic barrel,
Lullaby Lilla boy, Louisville Lou?
Trolley Molly don’t love Harold,
Boola boola Pensacoola hullabaloo!

The true authentic alternate version:

Bark us all bow-wows of folly,
Polly wolly cracker n’ too-da-loo!
Hunky Dory’s pop is lolly gaggin’ on the wagon,
Willy, folly go through!

Donkey Bonny brays a carol,
Antelope Cantaloup, ‘lope with you!
Chollie’s collie barks at Barrow,
Harum scarum five alarum bung-a-loo!

How many dinosaurs would fit on the ark?

Tom Tomorrow reports that Conservapedia has the answer.

They don’t mention whether the image below was done from a live model (it was oversharpened and I fixed it up a little).
