“Hooray” for Me! “Boooo” for Cancer!

Posted on June 16, 2009 by Tom

Tonight I finished third in a comedy contest, and thereby qualified for a spot in the upcoming “Laugh in the Face of Cancer” comedy show.

The show, taking place on September 17 at the Improve at the waterfront, is a fundraiser for Gilda’s Club of Western PA.

The mission of Gilda’s Club is to create welcoming communities of free support for everyone living with cancer – men, women, teens and children – along with their families and friends.

Make plans now to attend this great show on September 17 and support a great cause!

All movies had to incorporate a theme of “appliances.”

P.O.V. took the 1st place jury selection. Hooray for me!

Lyrics Quiz: Grey’s Anatomy Edition

Posted on June 5, 2009 by Tom

This week’s lyrics quiz them is parts of the body. Enjoy!

  1. With your hands on your hips, you bring your knees in tight
  2. What the world needs now is another folk singer like I need a hole in the head
  3. Open my mouth and out pops something spiteful
  4. A little box with a mirror and a tongue inside
  5. I got problems up to here, I got people in my ear
  6. I felt fingertips on the small of my back, so i had to react
  7. She took it from his lily white hand
  8. I’ll kiss you from your feet to where your head begins
  9. She turned around and gave that big booty a smack.
  10. Where’d you get that body from?

Is there really a market for Pittsburgh Pirates bikinis?

Because there’s nothing a woman likes more than swimwear that says, “I am not a winner.”
