The Second Greatest Prank Call of All Time!
So as long as I’m on a prank call roll, I thought I’d throw one more in. This is probably my favorite prank call done by Richard Christy of the “Howard Stern Show” on SiriusXM. Richard and his comedy partner, Sal Governale, routinely do prank calls on the Stern Show. This one, though, has always stood out to me. I remember the first time that I heard it, I just couldn’t stop laughing. And I was amazed at the complexity of it. So once again, I present another prank call for your pleasure.
The comedian Jim Florentine is undoubtedly one of the best prank callers of all time. I’m sure everyone has their favorite prank call, but I’ve been reciting this one with a good friend of mine for years now and it shows no signs of slowing. It just never gets old. I present it here for your audio pleasure. I’ve also included a PDF of the transcript for this call. Enjoy!
Here is the new “A Million Ways to Die in the West” Red Band Trailer. I hope the film is as entertaining as the trailers I have seen for it. If it’s anything like “Ted” I have faith. 
The Batman prequel series “Gotham” has been picked up for a series order. The story follows young Jim Gordon’s days on the Gotham police force years before Batman arrived on the scene. In the series, Bruce Wayne is still a child who has just witnessed the murder of his parents. And a lot of bad guys are going to wish that event didn’t happen when he grows up. We get younger versions of The Riddler, The Penguin, Catwoman, etc… I’m not usually a fan of prequels because they just tend to spin their wheels until the more interesting part of the story comes along years later. I very much enjoyed “Smallville,” but quite frankly, I just wanted to see Clark Kent become Superman. Which he finally did ten years later for all of about two minutes. But I am going to check this out. And unless they do a time jump, Bruce Wayne will obviously never become Batman in the series (for which I doubt the feature film division will allow). But hopefully the series can stand on it’s own two legs and show us a more interesting part of Gotham City other than its Dark Knight.
Hey gang, I thought I’d throw up some of the videos from the White House Correspondents’ Dinner from last night (May 3, 2014). What I have here is Joel McHale’s performance along with President Obama’s routine and the Julie Louis-Dreyfus – Joe Biden bit. I’ve also included past videos of some of the other celebrities who have hosted this dinner. I just thought I’d throw them all in one place for your convenience. Enjoy!
Hello gang,
First off… 
I recently went to see a Q&A screening of “Time After Time” with Malcolm McDowell as the guest speaker. This took place at the Alex Theatre in Glendale, California on April 8, 2014. Star Trek’s Nichelle Nichols was the special guest moderator (sort of). Another person (don’t remember his name) took care of most of the moderating duties. I think the special guest part is what Ms. Nichols basically fulfilled since she really wasn’t herself doing much moderating. All the same, it was good to see Uhura.
I know this has made the rounds yesterday but I thought I’d post it here as well. Never did I think for one moment that I would ever see Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher together again in a new “Star Wars” film. Simply amazing! My only fear is that Harrison Ford is finally going to get his “Return of the Jedi” death wish and get Han Solo killed off in this one. Then again, Abrams will probably just give him some of Kahn’s blood and revive him in the sequel. Oh wait, wrong franchise. I get all of those Star Trek Wars mixed up now that the same guy is doing them all.
