The pardon is for the guy who wrote Rocky V (one of capitalisms biggest PR scams)


President Trump tweeted that he may pardon someone because Sylvester Stallone asked him to. The pardon is for the guy who wrote "Rocky V." --Conan O’Brien


"Marco Rubio announced he's running for president. Fun fact: Marco Rubio's wife is a former Miami Dolphins cheerleader. In other words, she knows how to generate fake enthusiasm for someone who's not going to win." –Conan O'Brien

Soak it up, we'll probably never see anything like this again (His way of firing people is much more exciting than Donald Trump's)


As you probably know, the president canceled his June 12th meeting with Kim Jong Un today. Only Donald Trump could cancel a summit with Kim Jong Un in the morning and then have a meeting with Sylvester Stallone later in the day. Soak it up, we'll probably never see anything like this again. --Jimmy Kimmel


"Kim Jong Un reportedly had his defense chief executed after he fell asleep during a meeting. Not only did they execute him, they shot him with an anti-aircraft gun. I'd like to see NBC hire Kim Jong Un to host 'The Apprentice.' His way of firing people is much more exciting than Donald Trump's." –Jimmy Kimmel

he thinks he's too corrupt to be a leader, but not too corrupt to be just an ordinary congressman (truly fascinated by bright, shiny objects)

 

"Indicted Congressman Tom DeLay announced that he will not run for re-election as House Majority Leader but that he will run for re-election to Congress. So apparently he thinks he's too corrupt to be a leader, but not too corrupt to be just an ordinary congressman." --Jay Leno

 

"In Saudi Arabia last week, President Bush was criticized for doing a little ceremonial dance with a sword given to him by the Saudi prince. A lot of people thought the president was pandering to the Saudis. To be fair, I don't think the president was pandering. See, I think President Bush is truly fascinated by bright, shiny objects." --Jay Leno


"Sylvester Stallone announced today he is endorsing John McCain. I think that's what he said. He might have said, 'Hand me my cane.'" --Jay Leno

He had to retract a claim that he had been under cannon fire from the Confederates (action star endorsements)


"Do you think this is a big deal? See, all candidates exaggerate. Remember when John McCain ran in 2000? Remember that? He had to retract a claim that he had been under cannon fire from the Confederates." --Jay Leno


"It's just getting worse for him. In the New York Post today, a former madam said that Eliot Spitzer would pay to watch other couples have sex. He would pay to watch other couples have sex.

That really feels like a waste of a drumroll (The Fightin’ Dolly Partons)


February 2022

“The Washington Football Team, formerly known as the Redskins, announced its new name and logo on Wednesday, rebranding as the Washington Commanders.The Commanders’ kind of sounds like an action movie where Dolph Lungren and Sylvester Stallone join forces to defend their assisted living facility.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“Interestingly, the franchise now shares a name with President Biden’s dog, who is also named Commander. Good thing they didn’t name it after Trump’s dog. ‘The Washington Pences’ — it doesn’t have the same ring to it.” —Jimmy Kimmel

“It’s the Washington Commanders. That really feels like a waste of a drumroll.” —Stephen Colbert

“Commanders’ might be the only name more generic than ‘Football Team.’ I was hoping for something fun and new, like ‘The Washington Balloons’ or ‘The Fightin’ Dolly Partons.’” —Stephen Colbert

“The Washington Football Team announced today that it officially changed its name to the Washington Commanders, as in ‘Rams 37, Commanders 3.’” —Seth Meyers

“I mean, call them whatever you want, they haven’t been able to command a winning season since Obama was in office.” —James Corden

“To give you an idea of how fans reacted, shortly after the announcement, this is true, the word ‘terrible’ trended on Twitter, which is surprising, considering how Twitter is normally so welcoming and so positive.” —James Corden

While I have teamed up with alcoholism to give it a try (That’s adorable said cocaine)


December 2021

New York City will require all children over the age of 5 to show proof of vaccination before dining indoors or going to an entertainment venue, because if there’s one thing a 5 year old can do, it’s keep track of a small piece of paper. —Colin Jost

A new study finds that the regular use of marijuana may disrupt people’s sleep. That’s adorable said cocaine. —Colin Jost

It was reported that Sylvester Stallone will appear in a new TV series playing an Italian mob boss from Kansas City. In what is an absolute nightmare scenario for the Closed Captioning guy. —Colin Jost

Barefoot wine has teamed up with Oreos to create a line of red wine with hints of chocolate. While I have teamed up with alcoholism to give it a try. —Colin Jost

"Wait, we're facing one of the biggest threats to our economy and they only met for 45 minutes? That's not even the opening credits of 'The Hobbit'!" –Jimmy Fallon


"Last week a group of chefs baked the world's largest pizza, which is gluten-free and contains 9,000 pounds of cheese. Or as Americans put it, 'You had me at 'world's largest pizza' — you LOST me at 'gluten-free' — then you won me back with '9,000 pounds of cheese.''" –Jimmy Fallon

Hopefully he's in there getting a vasectomy (Ah, you get used to it)


February 2012

“Newt Gingrich is trying to save his campaign by focusing only on areas where he has the most support. So he's mostly focusing on Georgia, Tennessee, and Cheesecake Factory.” –Conan O'Brien

and the loser takes the fall for Ukraine (trying to explain his extensive brain damage)


“Tomorrow you’ll be patting, rubbing, and stuffing your turkey, while today, the T.S.A. did all of that to you.” --Jimmy Fallon
“As for other Thanksgiving foods, pies or cookies are allowed right in your carry-on, gravy and cranberry sauce can go in your checked luggage, and corn pudding can go directly to hell.” --Stephen Colbert
“Even though it’s Thanksgiving tomorrow, you can still go to Applebee’s, Boston Market and Denny’s. It’s perfect if you just realized something’s not working, like your oven, your stove or your marriage.” --Jimmy Fallon

“Last night, President Trump held a rally in Sunrise, Florida, and he called the impeachment inquiry a scam, a terrible hoax and a witch hunt. People in the crowd were like, ‘Looks like we’re getting leftovers before Thanksgiving.’” --Jimmy Fallon
“President Trump this afternoon tweeted an image of his head on Sylvester Stallone’s body from the movie poster for ‘Rocky III.’ So he’s either trying to tell us how tough he is, or he’s trying to explain his extensive brain damage.” --Seth Meyers
“But Trump is currently at Mar-a-Lago to celebrate Thanksgiving. He’s actually excited about the holiday because this year, Eric and Don Jr. are gonna pull the wishbone, and loser takes the fall for Ukraine.” --Jimmy Fallon

Madden: Indianapolis Colts vs Arizona Cardinals




I have been working on a paper for the Education Market. The paper talks about using video games as a teaching tool for children with learning disabilities.

The age demographic would be 8 to 18. Games could be up to the teacher or student to chose. Games might include soccer, football, basketball, etc.

Students could learn about various historical or fictional characters and create them as players for their team. It would allow the student to study history, philosophy, religion, sports, popular culture, etc. and then create the characters to be a part of their team. The students would even be able to play along side their created characters.

On some of the teams historical figures like Martin Luther King, and Abraham Lincoln will play on the same team with authors like Ernest Hemingway and William Shakespeare, or Elvis Presley and Tupac Shakur.

The process is meant to be a simple and fun way for kids to learn subjects such as world history, literature, poetry, art, music, science and vocabulary.

Maybe PS4/XBOX machines might be donated or discounted to schools for these classes. More on the paper as it is fleshed out. Enjoy the simulations.
