OK I start off today talking about school starting up again. The thing that confuses me about it is that it starts before Labor Day, which never happened when I was in school. I also chuckle about how when a Pizza Hut opened in Montevideo, MN we opened twice, once the day before thanksgiving and once the day after.

I divert a bit and talk about a game on MySpace called Heroes, that I literally just found out about before the show. My character on there is called Rendal and is a Paladin. I don't know how to search for a character so you'll have to figure that one out for yourself

Next up I mention the death's of both Bernie Mac and Issac Hayes, who died a day apart and just finished a movie together called Soul Men.This leads me to wondering how well qualified I am to even mention these two men since I know little of either, though the soul Men joke kicks off the topic for today...

Today's topic is Dark humor. I didn't realize how tough this could be for a topic as once I start talking it goes from discussing what Dark humor is to what humor is which is a whole different problem. It ends up more with me wondering how dark my humor has gotten as I've grown older and worrying that it might get to bad at some point. The topic came up as in idea because the September 2008 Issue of Reader's Digest has an article on it.

Which leads me to the closing topic of Reader's Digest's idea to put a McCain vs Obama article in the "Annual Humor Issue". It consists of both men answering questions sent in by the readers which is a good idea but could've been used to build around its own issue. Maybe that is just me thinking they missed out on something but you never know.
