Picture Postcard: Big Bang Theory Pumpkins

29 Oct

October 29, 2013

Like last year, I went to The Rise of the Pumpkins in Old Westbury Gardens, It is an old, spooky park, in the middle of nowhere, and the total darkness is lit only by the thousands of amazingly carved pumpkins they have on display. Last year I showed you a set of pumpkins carved in the likeness of The Avengers. This year, I bring you a set of pumpkins carved in the images of the stars of TV’s #1 comedy, and one of my favorite shows, The Big Bang Theory.

I’m also holding back a special Halloween pumpkin to present on Thursday night. As you’ll see, this is the perfect pumpkin to  post on Halloween. I almost never double up on special features but this week is a very special exception.

So here you are, The Big Bang Theory pumpkins!

Dear Ralph Edwards and Stu Billet Productions:  GO F**K YOURSELVES

I’m finding that married life hasn’t improved my disposition much. I’m still a rageaholic – can’t get enough of that sweet, sweet rageahol!

Anyway…..

Remember not too long ago, when Mr. B published a tribute to Ed Koch ?

https://bmj2k.com/2013/02/14/a-tribute-to-ed-koch/

It included a one of kind, very VERY rare clip of a befuddled Ed Koch dealing with multiple clown wrestlers the Behemoth and Titanic Tony arguing over breach of contract for…..something? One of my favorite clips ever.

Well, while that blog and the resulting video went over extremely well with the BMJ2K and YouTube community. Well, except for a couple of old crankypusses that is. Look at this here happy crappy:

You see that????

Now as people (sort of) on the outer fringes of the periphery of publishing, I respect copyright as much as the next guy on the street but gimme a freaking break.  This is probably the single most HI-LARIOUS episode of the People’s Court ever, and insofar as I can tell, this was the only available copy online. This was a public service as much as anything else. PEOPLE NEEDED TO SEE TITANIC TONY DAMMIT!!!!

But even that’s not what is galling me. It’s this:

That’s right. About 287,000 results!!!  But our little clip was singled out.  Hey dummies, you better get to filing copyright claims against all of these people.  Jackholes. I mean geeze, the same cretins that gave wastes of egg and sperm Harvey “TMZ” Levin and Curt  The Court Reporter whatever his name is jobs. I’d rather spend a lazy Sunday hanging out with Doug Llewelyn.
