Tonight I’ve finally finished working three weeks of working a double shift. Basically I’ve worked between 10 to 14 hours every day for the last three weeks and I am fried (I’m refraining from another, “Fried Day joke, you’re welcome). I’m really beat and I’ve got a couple big blog posts coming up on Sunday and Monday, so tonight I’m just going to go home and get drunk out of my fucking mind and relax. Also, the traffic really slows down here on Saturdays because people are out and about and not looking at blogs and I’m not going to kill myself when there isn’t a huge audience out there. But I want to put something up to entertain the loyal MAD readers and commenters that come here on Saturday, I do appreciate it! “Boris” and I were talking about SCTV on the phone the other night and saying how funny it was and recalling different bits that were hilarious. There didn’t used to be a lot of clips on YouTube from the old SCTV shows, but I checked last night and there’s a ton of them. So I thought I’d put up some of my favorites. Hey, it beats a hot dog at the Papaya, right Al?












And a quick tribute to Alex Trebek. And the answer is...”Drunken, cursing, Canadian game show host."

This boy wouldn't mind the pain,
Would always feel the same,
If this boy gets you back again.

Bonus Cardboard Box Men From Gidget!
The coolest DJ in the world, Gidget, sent in this photo of two Cardboard Box Men who invaded her office. They appear to be brooding about something, but are a little more colorful than your run of the mill CBBM. Gidget DJ’s on Woody Radio and has a show with “Boris” that is on till 4pm EST today called “The Secret Weapon.” Turn on and tune in!

Okay, as we all know from yesteray’s post, Wednesday and Thursday weren’t very good days and work and it bled on to the MAD blog a little bit. I was able to salvage Wednesday with the Santa post, but yesterday I had nothing. Tonight was better at work, but after two days of pure stress and not much sleep, I’m still pretty beat and don’t feel like going out. Luckily, in the last two days some people have sent me some photos so I’ve decided once a month on Fridays we’ll do a Random Foto Friday. And here we go.

Keeping in step with the Christmas in summer theme I started the other day, Gene Rubbico sent me these photos he took from a NYC trip in December of 2008 with his wife Smoopy. Enjoy!

Continuing in this Christmas them, MAD commenter csp sent in this photo of Brian Wilson sitting on Santa's lap he found on the internet. Ho ho ho = fun fun fun.

The fabulous DJ Gidget sent me a couple of her photographs that were featured in the Temple News Agency Block Party. Great photos, Gidget! And while perusing the messages on Woody Radio I see it was Gidget's birthday this week! Happy birthday, Gidget!

And now for the scary photos. MAD reader, Michael Nies sent in these photos and writes: "Some weird Mr Bill looking cardboard box man offshoot on the sidewalk off E. 2nd St!  It may be small, but I don't trust it, especially with those crocodile tears!  We're doomed!" All I can add is: Aaaahhhh!

Thanks to Gene, csp, Gidget and Michael for sharing the photos. If you have a photo and would like to share it here on Random Foto Friday, send it to me via email. Thanks and see you tomorrow after dark.
