C-147 mins, TV-PG, CC, Letterbox Format. 10:15 PM EST. TCM A towering tour de force by the Mighty Burt Lancaster as a smarmy and [...] Though it’s almost a 100% chance a lefty musician’s going to get their hemp panties in a bunch, as an amateur song parodist, it’s always frustrating to see someone’s mimicry-creativity squashed (and Lord knows Neil Young, Dan Baird, Queen, Jeff Lynne and Mick & Keef would do likewise if my takes on their respective [...] We at Threedonia were remiss this past week in failing to honor Global Belly Laugh Day on January 24. I’m sure it’s a UNICEF thing. In any case… no one loves a good belly laugh more than me. So what makes you laugh Threedonians? I’m not talking Cheshire Cat grin or some silent shudder [...] Share on Facebook At least the Repubs were polite enough to stay awake. I saw the foto of JNo (our crack DHS sec’y) with both eyes shut. Hey Janet! Woulda been my response to it too. Must be why they asked Bob McDonnell, and not me, to give the response. By the way, Barry: a big two [...] I’m going to a Bible study to hear a better word. But feel free to comment on the little tin god’s speech here… Share on Facebook Andre Dawson, the only player elected to the baseball Hall of Fame this year will go in as an Expo — or at least the cap on his plaque will be an Expos hat. He preferred to go in as a Chicago Cub. The hall announced its decision Wednesday. Dawson told WMVP-AM in Chicago [...] Now really TCM… how am I supposed to pick just one? Hell… call in sick, get a 12-pack, or a couple bottles of wine or whatever you like and hunker down. The Philadelphia Story is the strongest “film” of all of these of course, but I love all or parts of each Road movie, A [...] With a H/T to an email forward my lovely wife, a little primer for tonight’s SOTU… People in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania have a warped sense of humor. It must be something in the coal-infused water. This is the pull off at SR 61 and Adamsdale Rd. A deer was hit there. The couch was dumped [...] A lot of criminals are idiotic, self-justifying morons. In class today we’re watching an interview (of which this includes parts) with Richard Kuklinski aka The Iceman and forensic psychologist Parke Dietz. This guy was the real deal…. Very few people are really scary… a guy who is a sociopath, is fearless and also paranoid [...]
Every once in a while the daughtorial unit surprises me by doing something useful. (I keed – I keed!) In this case, she turned me onto what may possibly be the best cartoon ever: The Venture Brothers. I am so out of touch with all things cool, and The Venture Brothers – [...] The crew of Apollo 1: Edward White, Gus Grissom, Robert Chaffee, R.I.P. Share on Facebook Because while trolling the ‘net for naked pictures of Chad Kroeger — my attempt to lure June Cleaver out of hiding — I came across these guys. And my heart stopped. Because I never would’ve predicted those sweet, dorky little long-haired Leif Garrett-lookalikes would age so verrrry nicely. Because their breakout bubblegum hit (“Mmm Bop [...] Just because Prince has never had too much of a sense of humor (pancake breakfasts allegedly aside), doesn’t mean we can’t laugh at him. With the 21st century version of “We Are the World” on the horizon for Haitian relief efforts, a trip through the archives… NOTE TO FLOYD: Yet more 80s-style black-face, which [...] The Manchurian Candidate (1962) A Korean War hero doesn’t realize he’s been programmed to kill by the enemy.

Congrats to L/Cpl Katrina Hodge! Jawa has a link to a bikini video if you are at all interested. Yeah, I’m back in Iraq [...] From GrEaT sAtAn”S gIrLfRiEnD “On 26 January 1945, 2d Lt.
