YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SH*T UP!


"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

Is there another kind of porpoise?

This is JUST LIKE the time Jim Nabors was lost in the woods and Barbara Eden led him to safety.

Or the ever-popular 'Trouser Porpoise'.

I hope we're not hitting the sauce again, but regardless, porpoises rule.

This story is being totally mis-reported. This happened DECADES AGO. 84-year old Dick Van Dyke was NOT surfing any time in the recent past.

He told the story on the Late Late (Craig Ferguson) Show.

"This story is being totally mis-reported."

Can you imagine such a thing - that almost never happens.

Why is Mr. Van Dyke trying to censor the truth?

Ah, this just makes me think of the GOLDEN GIRLS episode he was on.


"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

The porpoises were not available for comment. Bwahaha.


If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.
