The 15th through the 17th of July held a very special magical event. This event was the Essential Magic Conference. The first ever international online magic conference ( at least that’s what I got from the marketing ).  At a price of just 55 euros, it was worth every penny before the end of the [...]

For my first post back from break, I thought I would start with a little humor. The humor I chose isn’t any humor, but it is humor related to the more serious topics written about in this blog – the men’s movement. Watching this clip was almost surreal for me because there was a part [...]

I love flight of the conchords. I also love Scrubs. I am also a fan of comedy and the french language. These 4 things came together in the first season of Flight of the Conchords.

In the past I have asked you to watch the guild. Mostly because it is a fun web show and partly because it has Felicia Day (also a good reason to watch Dr. Horrible’s Sing Along Blog). Those same two reasons, and because Felicia day mentioned it on Facebook, had me check out the Legend [...]

I don’t watch The Daily Show live. I usually watch it the next day on Hulu. However, last Tuesday they had a bit of magic on the show. I didn’t catch it on Hulu, instead I caught it during the 3 minutes it takes to heat up a lean pocket( 2 minutes to cook, 1 [...]

I remember seeing this video quite a while ago and meant to put it in a Friday Humor post. It’s in French but with English subtitles. Given at least one of the jokes in this routine, that fact is funny. However, the punchline to this routine is a beautiful callback to the very beginning of [...]

Watch The Guild. It is a great short episode web show that is about to start its 3rd season. If you are into MMOs, know someone who is or enjoy watching Felicia Day then this is a great show to watch.
