The Best Laugh of My Week
Ancient Roman emperor Elagabalus is interviewed by a Martin Bashir impersonator. It’s a bit heady, but what can I say…it was made for an 11th-grade Latin class.
Cop Out
If you can make it through this mediocre movie, the last scene with Seann William Scott is fall-on-the-floor hysterical. Here’s the trailer:

This landed in my inbox today. It was identified as the Washington Post’s Mensa Invitational, which asks readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition.
But a quick Google search revealed that the Post takes no credit for it. On January 28, 2007, a WP blog post with the byline “The Empress” said the following:

This 29-year-old man acquired over one million followers on Twitter just by posting comments made by his 74-year-old father. You’ll laugh your head off, I guarantee.

The Best Laugh of My Week: Thanks Eddie
Read my Sunday Globe interview with Eddie.
Calmness in Our Lives
This arrived in my inbox yesterday (with a different photo). The unknown author gave me the best laugh of my week!

Tranquility
“I am passing this on to you because it definitely works, and we could all use a little more calmness in our lives.
By following simple advice heard on the Dr. Phil show, you too can find inner peace.
Dr Phil proclaimed, “The way to achieve
inner peace is to finish all the things you have started and have never finished.”
So, I looked around my house to see all the things I started and hadn’t finished, and before leaving the house this morning, I finished off a bottle of White Zinfandel, a bottle of Bailey’s Irish Cream, a package of Oreos, the remainder of my old Prozac prescription, the rest of the cheesecake, some Doritos, and a box of chocolates.
You have no idea how freaking good I feel right now.
Pass this on to those whom you think might be in need of inner peace.
Happy New Year!”
