Hey hey hey hats and cats, I’d like to take a moment and introduce myself.

I’ve been out on the Fashionable Left Bank of Blogistan^TM since October 2002 or so - right after the 2002 BartFest in Las Vegas, NV introduced me to a whole new set of amazing beings that were, to varying degrees, sick and tired of the Republican’t imposed Illegally Installed Drunken Cokeheaded Usurper and his junta, and trying to figure out a way to maintain our stability while trying to function in the Modern Robber Baron Era. Other comically tragic figures caused repeated attempts to stop the frelling irony alert siren from going off to be unsuccessful until assuaged by blogspheric (y!sctroftw!*) postings. And here we are.

You will come to know and love me ’round these parts as the funnyfarmer. I’ll be trying to help out a bit with sweeping keeping up the Street, and amusing you with niblets of infotainment that you’ll probably see at most of the usual places (that are still around, of course).

Like, for example: I’m reasonably certain that Judy Judy Judy might have garnered some attention during the day. If not, then possibly some of the continuing David Addington testimony might have been more to your liking. Or you could have just viddied Christy’s early morning musings if you didn’t have the time to catch all of these posts over at Firedoglake.

Then again, maybe you’re not to keen on that sad spectacle, and you prefer the latest Daily Show** clip, or any of the fine videos that John Amato has patiently sifted through and decided were worthy of inclusion over at Crooks and Liars. I sometimes host these things as well, especially when the clips show the conservative media at its’ douchebaggiest. This - Is - Huge!.

Or maybe you’re at one of the blogspot zones (if it’s up at the moment), or somewhere else completely. Or getting ready to watch your favorite comedy/drama/game show and wind down after a hard day at the orifice office. By the way, did you know that the Ceeb is showing new broadcasts of This Hour Has 22 Minutes and The Rick Mercer Report tonight? Check your local listings if you’re lucky enough to get the TeeVee from the Great White North, eh?

Anyways,… that’s all for my first foray onto the American Street. You can find me at my home on the internets (courtesy of my good friends at Computer Tyme), The Funny Farm, from time to time***. Have yourselves a safe journey wherever your road may lead.

TTFN

* - yes! skippy coined the root of that word!

** - Much thanks to silentpatriot for helping John with the original post over at Crooks and Liars.

*** - actually, you’ll probably be seeing more of me over here than over there, since they gave me a bucket and mop of my very own! for when I’m on the Street. Maybe that tale will be told one of these days, too. You just never know…
