Behold, the power of ... the Internet
So the somewhat sophomoric guys I work with at the writing center are always talking about these videos on the Internet. Some of them are pretty stupid but I have especially grown to love Magical Trevor, a lovable wizard from the U.K. who is good at performing tricks on animals (yes, this is clean enough for kids to watch).
Check Magical Trevor out at http://www.weebls-stuff.com/toons/magical+trevor/
What's really amazing about this is, some of the videos on this site have been seen nearly three million times. That's incredible. Little nobody dorks who used to spend their time playing Dungeons and Dragons are making videos that people around the world are watching. Wow ... It really levels the playing field in some respects in regard to pop culture. Now ANYONE can make something funny that people like and make it famous on the Internet. A-mazing.

okay, for the record, i'm totally addicted to magical trevor!
"look at him nowwwwww, disappearing a cowwwwwwwwww"
And that's not the ONLY Magical Trevor cartoon!
There's also one involving Ragu and the lines:
"You may think
He's putridly sick
Sawing a pigeon
In half with a stick."
Man that's good stuff. Can't wait to show it to my classroom someday as a treat!
I thoroughly enjoyed the Roadside pee jug link. Thank you, Erin, for showing me the other side of road trip fun.
remember the rhyme..."weebles wobble, but they don't fall down"...commenting on the beast as well...he's HUGE...need more pics of the black beastly dog on here...
