Today is "Amendment Friday". Or perhaps it is "Sketch Comedy Reference Friday". Or both.
We shall just call today:
"Sketch Comedy Reference Amendment Friday But We're Not Amending The Sketch Comedy, Because It's Perfect The Way It Is...Friday."
I had an alternate title in mind, but it was far too long.
Due to grammatical atrocities, yesterday's entry has been slightly significantly amended. I urge you to go back and re-read so that the memory of those words and their blatant misuse ceases to infect the part of your brain that recollects previously read literature.
And yes, for the record, the inclusion of the word "literature" is used both intentionally and ironically.
Again, for the record, I believe that men CAN grow beards in space, given a controlled environment. Let's say for example that there is a space station where men live and breathe normally, with a controlled, earth like atmosphere...then yes, men could certainly grow beards in space. To argue against it would defy logic entirely.
I hear a lot of arguments, made by smart people mind you, that closely reflect the one regarding the ability to grow beards in space. This is a philosophical argumentation exercise one learns in the very beginning stages of a pre-law education. It is very important for future lawyers to know how to argue for and/or against the ability to grow beards in space (which they can as mentioned above), and to illustrate miscalculated, poorly aimed, bad logic of an argument against the possibility, I have provided a link to one of the finest moments in sketch comedy history.
This sketch makes me giggle. LOL even. Not quite ROFLMAO funny, but you get the idea. The sketch exemplifies, personifies and even immortalizes a subtle, flawed use of logic we all participate in, on nearly a daily basis without even realizing it.
I blame court television.
If I could go back in time and watch this sketch again for the first time, I'd do so in a heartbeat. In fact, I am going to copy this comedic gem onto DVD and attach a note that requests the contents be shown to me in the event that I suffer any sort of memory loss, regardless of the cause. Whether I'm in a terrible accident, perhaps a traumatic house fire, or maybe the loss of mental faculties is brought on by old age, this DVD will be my opportunity to time travel and watch The Bearded Men of Space Station 11 again for the very first time.
We must embrace opportunity when it is offered...and why not capitalize on tragedy and turn it into something positive?
And there's nothing more uplifting than time travel.
And growing beards in space.
And of course deploying Jazz Hands, which I do every time I watch that sketch comedy routine.
Today's Jazz Hands are capable of growing a beard in space.
Day two-hundred and forty-nine complete.
