In 1979 Peter Sellers starred in a brilliant movie about the ultimate in accidental Presidents. As the movie ends Chance the Gardiner has not actually been elevated to be Leader of the Free World but is well on his way. Because people could read meanings they wanted to hear into what he was saying. I hadn't made the connection until today but this movie tells us much about the process which left us...

I think my lips might just make it through the winter after all. Bad Tempered Zombie's Top Five Predictions for 2009: 1. Steve Martin will continue to believe that he is the reincarnation of Peter Sellers. 2. A celebrity will die, people will be shocked. 3. Chad VanGaalen's Soft Airplane will be shortlisted for a Polaris Prize but will lose because the vote will be split. 4. Blistex will be declared...

Here’s the trailer for the upcoming sequel The Pink Panther 2 starring Steve Martin as Inspector Clouseau. Looks silly, I miss peter sellers as the Pink Panther. That’s not to say I don’t like Steve Martin or the other people in this movie, but it just doesn’t look funny. Look for it on February 6th, 2009. Source: Ace Showbiz

Max Atkinson found Peter Sellers' great content-free political speech a few weeks back and I thought I would riposte with my namesake, Rowan Atkinson's speech on purposeless. Ness. Less. A true classic written by someone who has obviously sat through one too many of these ... RSS Readers may need to click through to the post

I filled the bird feeder this morning. A Scrub Jay had just run off the Black-capped Chickadees, along with an assortment of House Sparrows. And it was Mr. Jay who finished off the last few seeds in the feeder, just as I arrived. We recently watched Peter Sellers in " The Party " and enjoyed laughing again at the Birdie Num Num scene, a scene that is repsonsible for the painting my wife added to the...

Sometimes the sole way to remain reasonably sane is embrace absurdity. Let it fracture your mind and knock the candles from your lids.
