Guerilla Improv: No Joking Zone
Agent Marks and I were uncertain how to end it, but thankfully, our undercover agents came to our rescue. They mounted a joke insurgence and effectively re-took the NJZ. It started off with each undercover agent coming into the zone, one after another, telling jokes in a town-crier fashion. --Guerilla Improv: No Joking Zone (Improv-Abilities)A great piece of activist anti-comedy.
If more people did this, we could just walk out on the streets for our amusement, and wouldn't be lashed to the TV set.

'God made me cancel my own crucifixion'
Five, the television channel, denied it was disappointed that Diamond, a radio and TV presenter and outspoken Daily Star columnist, had decided against being crucified. No date has been set for the broadcast of the programme. If shown, it may have to change its original working title, Crucify Me. --Nico Hines --'God made me cancel my own crucifixion' (Times Online)In my Intro to Literary Study class, I'm teaching Arthur Miller's Resurrection Blues -- a play about a TV commercial director hired to film the crucifixion of a rebel leader in a Central American country.

how to make 3D lemurs out of clay
--how to make 3D lemurs out of clay (Google)According to my server log, someone came to my site after searching for "how to make 3D lemurs out of clay."
I was curious... and I used my finely honed Google searching skills to find "miniature lemur sculpture."
I'm not sure that I'm a better person for having done that research, but I doubt I'm any worse. Maybe it will help whoever was disappointed by my site.
Come back, lemur searcher! I can help you now!
