MasterChugs Theater: ‘Dave Chappelle’s Block Party’

Somewhere between the Dave Chappelle of comedy stardom and the Dave Chappelle of abrupt sabbaticals for contemplative stretches in Africa is the guy who experienced “the best single day of my career” when he threw a party for a few thousand friends and fans. Inviting some of the most gifted and socially conscious hip-hop and R&B artists, he assembled his dream concert on a corner in Bedford-Stuyvesant. Director Michel Gondry chronicles the September 18, 2004, event and its lead-up in the loose-limbed, funny and impassioned documentary known eloquently as Dave Chappelle’s Block Party.

Sweet ink, your honor

As we have recently learned, the Chinese are a very outgoing, humorous people. Once again the government is cracking down on citizens who seem to be enjoying themselves just a little too much. Those citizens are judges.

Judges are no longer allowed to have shaved heads, have tattoos, wear heavy makeup and of course, frolic. Apparently in China, judges look something like the people American judges lock up.

Key quote: “A notice issued by the high court of Henan, the top judicial authority in the heartland province, also banned judges using certain phrases in the courtroom, including: ‘Are you the judge or am I?’–and ‘You will certainly lose this case.'”

Deer waxed

The Guys apologize for being a tad bit late on informing you of the latest in animal brutality upon humans in this case. But look out motorists, you need to be warned.

Getting hit by one automobile isn’t enough to stop these vicious deer from attacking us anymore. One deer, hit by two seperate cars, caused those two cars to collide and wreck into each other on a Wisconsin highway. This isn’t Bambi we’re dealing with folks. The epidemic is spreading.

Whose side are cows on?

Cows: when they’re not falling from the sky, pooping diamonds or just being tasty, they seem to find time to save human lives. Go figure.

Nervous cows saved nearly 600 people in a small Mexican village when a “mini-tsunami” hit. The people noticed the cows were nervous and headed out of town. Alright, actually the cows took off and the people took off after them to bring them back, but the point remains.

Folks, don’t think the cow is your friend, despite what Chick-Fil-A ads may lead you to believe, these animals are just as dedicated to the animal cause as anything else. These bovines are bad asses, but together, we can wipe them out. Eat a burger today.
