Dangerously Close to the Edge

Rocket Man August 19, 2006

Lately I’ve been watching all the episodes of Family Guy, thanks to a co-worker that has all the seasons on DVD. I had previously only watched a couple of episodes but I have really been enjoying watching them. My favorite character? Stewie. One of my favorite scenes is Stewie singing Rocket Man -

I knew this was most likely a parody of William Shatner doing Rocket Man but I had never seen Shatner’s version, so it was over to YouTube again. Absolutely hilarious, you can’t write stuff this funny. It’s a little long but worth watching since the funniest part in my opinion is when “3rd Shatner” makes his appearance or as I refer to him “Drunk Shatner”. Family Guy did a great job on their parody while making it much shorter; the only part I think they should have left in was when “1st Shatner” a.k.a “Smoking Shatner” talks to “2nd Shatner” and tells him “It’s cold as hell”.

Oh yeah, that’s the good stuff!

What kind of Deadwood $%&@# Am I?

I’ve really tried to cut down on the amount of TV I watch lately but I do have a small list of shows that I just can’t miss. One of those is HBO’s Deadwood. So, I just couldn’t resist to take the below quiz on Quizfarm.

——————————————————————

You scored as Seth Bullock. You didn’t want to be sheriff, but someone had to do it. You wish you didn’t have such a high moral compass, because you just want to sit in the background. However, in this town someone needs to step up, and if no one else will, that only leaves you. If evil only needs the good to do nothing, you won’t watch from the sidelines. (Seth Bullock is played by Timothy Olyphant) Seth Bullock 69% Doc Cochran 63% Joanie Stubbs 56% Alma Garret 56% Calamity Jane 44% Mr Wu 44% Trixie 38% Cy Tolliver 31% E. B.

I tried to answer the questions honestly while hoping not to be Farnum! Oh, and as a side note, this is for anyone else was wondering exactly what was a hoople-head.
