Subject: unholy shit!

I have seen the future…it was on comedy central and was called “The Mighty Boosh” apparently the British gave up after creating such comedy gold mines as “black adder” “the league of gentlemen,” “ali g” and I’m Alan Partridge” … okay I’m sorry, let me start over. I was just overloaded with milky warm comedy crap…. So, i’m sick and staying at home tonight and the plan is that I’m going to watch my special edition of Unforgiven which I drunkenly ordered off of amazon five days ago. however I happen to switch on the tube and I find this god awful program. Seriously these people have a billboard up in the village and are on adult swim. several supposed friends have suggested I see this hilarious show from england called “the mighty boosh.” damn it was awful! I’m gonna go to bed and will try to write more about it tomorrow… but jesus comedy like that makes me think there’s something wrong inside of me.

What ever you do. Do not watch it with out taking precautions! I barely made it out alive! It is a barren hellscape of gorilla masks and sound editing equipment. And if you watch it it will make you doubt whether or not you are a member of the human race .

TED Talk | Elizabeth Gilbert on nurturing creativity

“Don’t be afraid. Don’t be daunted. Just do your job. Continue to show up for your piece of it, whatever that might be. If your job is to dance, do your dance. If the divine cock-eyed genius assigned to your case decides to let some sort of wonderment be glimpsed for just one moment, through your efforts, then olé! And if not, do your dance anyhow, and olé to you nonetheless.”

Should have watched this sooner. Thanks, heywhipple and Hadlock.
