World War Z... in ASL?

Not quite. But until I finish WWZ, here is the song that plays when you call my cell, and that's Jonathan Coulton's "Re: Your Brains, " with American Sign Language provided by a dude named Stephen Torrence. But on his channel, he is know as Captain Valor!

Feliz Na-bla-bleah?

Big thanks to Frank Sandoval, Jr., who brought this to my attention on Facebook:

And right back to where we were.

Ahhhh. This is more like it. But at least it's Jewish.

And now for something completely different.

This blog has posted some rather naughty things on it. And plenty of the stuff has been without merit. Well, shame on us for not doing things with a bit more substance from time to time.

With this, we wash the blog clean, and ask you to listen to this amazing rendition of the El Moley Rachamim prayer sung in in memory of fallen IDF soldiers and victims of terror. The chazzan is the remarkable Cantor Helfgott. Can you imagine if you showed up for minyan at your freind's shul, only to have this guy be the Hazzan? Dear Lord, I'd be shattered after 15 minutes.


Turn the speakers up real loud and freak out the neighborhood. The Jews will all have flashbacks to Yom Kippur. It's worth listening to once all the way through, audience noise and bad audio notwithstanding. Of course, I kept thinking "where is that choir coming from?"




And you bet your ass you say "Amen" when he's done.

What I want for Christmas. With lots of Ammo.

Okay, it's a gun rack. But not just any gun rack. It's "The Back Up."




Notice how the guns always point away from the head of the bed- that's gun safety 101-- if keeping guns in your bedroom is safe to begin with. Also, there is a quiet disclaimer at the end of the promo that is ironic. Hell, the whole thing is ironic.

It could hold a katana, or two, I guess....

Whales and Dolphins are Delicious! Please understand Japanese Culture.

Directly from Tokyo, this one rates an A, at 91 % Warnickian (to be 100% it has to be something like Jožin z bažin, but those are rare).



Nothing will ever compare to the original complaints chior, but the Tokyo Complains Choir is one of the best new ones.

OVER 100 POSTS!!!!

What a wonder!

100 posts of slapstick, weirdness, R-rated jokes, and marvelously goofy stuff for Warnicks --and those who love them. Thanks to Jer for his high-in-quality posts along the way. They remain few in number, but we are mindful of the fact that he has real work to do these days. (We remain hopeful he'll waste some time here in the future).

And what else could we post here to follow up Jozin z Bazin aside from this video below ? If you EVER took a Red Cross CPR or first aid video, then the format will be all too funny for you. Only this time, it's the comedy stylings of the Kasper Hauser comedy team, and they are all about wedding emergencies. Remember to pause and review when you hear the beep!

Perfection!

No video has yet come around my way that I would define as so very truly Warnickian as this one, which features Czeck folk singer Ivan Mládek, performing his 70's European mega-hit “Jožin z bažin.” It qualifies on a second level because the music is just catchy enough to get wedged in your head for 3 or 4 hours.

Sit back and prepare for 2:33 of pure Warnickian glee.

No Way? WAY.

Every so often,  we are forced to recognize that.... soda can be nasty?

A duet that is a solo that is a duet... etc.

Now not only is this cute, but the music is classic. Classical.  A classic.  All three even. 

Nobody expects the . . . Starship Enterprise?

Pure glee for Warnicks and all others. Enjoy a nicely mashed bit of "Nee!" and "Bones!"

Billions and Billions- in E Flat

If you were a young nerd, or even semi-nerd in the 1970's, you probably watched Carl Sagan's PBS series "Cosmos." The best bit was probably when he gets caught in a supernova, but that's a matter of taste. But who knew the man was a pioneer of the music that would make Moby become a vegan millionaire?

-Guts (from aforementioned zombies)

-Some kind of Story

-Gorbachev  (just wait till his eyes shoot out laser blasts!) 

-A celebratory Girls in Bikinis dance

And now for something completely different.

A Word from Kenneth Branagh  on Shakespeare

Marvin Gaye and Diana Ross introduced me properly to Shakespeare, strange but true. It was during an early English Literature class. Our reluctant group of novice Shakespeareans were all prepared for a turgid beginning to our high school literature studies. As a mixture of nervous dread and dull groans spread around the room, Mr. Grue, our teacher, brought out an ancient record player, which he placed on his desk. There was a little excitement. Perhaps he was going to play us a recording of Romeo and Juliet and at least save us the toe-curling embarrassment of reading this incomprehensible stuff aloud.

"Listen to this," he announced in a voice that commanded attention.

Imagine our surprise when out of this Edisonian contraption came the familiar strains of the chart hit "You Are Everything." Strains is the right word, as the number began with a low orgasmic growling the rang from the seriously Mr. Gaye and a soaringly moist response from Miss Ross's much affected soprano. Mr. Grue stopped the record and faced the bemused class. Where did Shakespeare come in?

"Now what was that all about?" Perplexed faces all around.

"Sex, you twerps!"

Suppressed giggles all round. Yes, it was.

"Now open Romeo and Juliet and let's find out where Shakespeare used it."

The noises of pages turning by excited singers was deafening. I don't think I've ever looked back. Thank you, Mr. Grue.

(read the rest of his impassioned plea  about Shakespeare  here at pbs.org.) 

Hey, they did mention Kolin'har!!!

While I'm busy teaching Hebrew School, I feel like you should share in the misery. Time for you and all the little Warnicks to brush up on learning Hebrew. Read this article at the wonderful Uncyclopedia (the Hebrew version of this parody of Wikipedia called the Aincyclopedia has a logo at left). One of my favorite parts of the article:

ח

"This is the famous letter Chet. This sound is pronounced as a very deep CH. No no, not a CH like in CHANGE but a CH like in CHIZBELLAH חיזבאללה. The proper way to pronounce this letter is take a nut and shove it down your throat as far down as possible and then observe the sounds you make as you try to cough it out. Got it? There is your Chet. "

OK, OK, so I just posted something five minutes ago. This takes the cake.



Let's just say that if the original Warnick express -- the red Aerostar -- or even possibly the even older gray Olds Cutlass, could compose music on its own, it would probably sound like this.



The video is Sprockets meets craptastic video effects. But the music is pure Woodley Road/Skokie Lagoons on a Saturday Night.

A joke from my Doctor...

Three mice are sitting at a bar in a pretty rough neighborhood late at night trying to impress each other about how tough they are.

The first mouse pounds a shot of scotch, slams the glass onto the bar, turns to the second mouse and says, "When I see a mousetrap, I lie on my back and set it off with my foot. When the bar comes down, I catch it in my teeth, bench press it 100 times to work up an appetite, and then make off with the cheese."

The second mouse pounds a shot of scotch, slams the glass onto the bar, turns to the first mouse, and replies, "Yeah, well when I see rat poison, I collect as much as I can, take it home, grind it up to a powder, and add it to my coffee each morning. I get a buzz and its good for my heart!"

The first mouse and the second mouse then turn to the third mouse.

The third mouse lets out a long sigh, pounds a shot of scotch, slams the glass onto the bar, and says to the first two, "I don't have time for this. I'm going home to fuck the cat."

Yowza.
