Stephen Baldwin, lame costumes, and some of the worst visual effects in the history of light? I’m in heaven!

Two preview clips from my feature-length Video On Demand iRiff, available Nov. 5 at Rifftrax.com.

I have an idea for a mind-blowing sci-fi story about a man who discovers a small Time Hole in his closet. Only a few inches in diameter, it’s not large enough for him to pass through. He determines that it must be a portal to the past, because through it wafts the scent of homemade cornbread. He decides to send a potato through the portal, and does so with much pageantry and fanfare. For two years he wanders the streets, looking for the slightest sign that his interaction with the past has altered history in any way. Alas, not a single detail seems to have changed. Then one day, in a video store, he happens to glance into the bargain bin. There he discovers a worn VHS copy of a feature length movie version of Rob Schneider’s “You like-a da juice?” character from the Greek restaurant sketches on Saturday Night Live in the mid 90’s. “That’s funny,” he thinks, “I don’t remember them making a movie about that character…” Soon after he is fatally run over by a recreational vehicle.

The reader is left to draw his/her own conclusions. It’s called “The Guy Who Stuffed a Potato Through His Time Hole.” All rights reserved.

Every day on my break I walk around the campus here at Nyack College and regard the famous “gate to nowhere.” If I had more free time and/or was British I’d write a series of whimsical children’s novels about it. Then those books would be turned into bloated feature films with shoddy merchandise and Burger King tie-ins. Then I’d buy Canada.

Apparently this is old, but it’s new to me. From a Norwegian comedy show.

I can’t decide whether my love for this video is ironic or not.

The group is Sonseed. Hat tip to steev richter.

Richard Wright of Pink Floyd

The man who wrote “The Great Gig In The Sky” and “Us and Them” has passed. Pink Floyd’s Richard Wright is dead at 65 after a “short battle with cancer.” I suppose this is the final word on a Floyd reunion tour. God bless his family.

Michael Palin: a wholesome, religious man.

According to Twitter and Facebook, lots of people hate this founding member of Monty Python. C’mon, gang, give him a break!

Howdy, folks! I had the great honor of contributing material to the latest “Rifftrax Presents” release, Spider-man 2 featuring guest riffer Josh Fruhlinger (A.K.A. The Comics Curmudgeon). Yes, this one was a real Josh-splosion.
