Friday Funnies: Are these the worst Family Feud answers ever?

One way to make your half an hour on the television last a bit longer…provide answers to bad that the show gets uploaded to YouTube

If you have a joke or a funny video that you’d like to see here on a Friday, send an email to samuel@samuelgordonstewart.com and it might just appear in the coming weeks.

Samuel’s Blog Weekly Poll: Obama’s first hundred days

The Mike Jeffreys fiasco really threw my week out because I had to hold off on launching a new poll at the beginning of the week in order to keep the Jeffreys story at the top of the front page. This posed a slight problem because I had been planning on giving the boat people poll a good run, and running this poll today. Unfortunately I need to cut the boat people poll off today, but it’s had a good response so I’m not too phased by it.

(And the award for superfluous paragraph of the week goes to…)

Anyway, Barack Obama’s first hundred days are over, and I’d like to know what you thought of it. It took me a while to decide how to phrase the possible answers, and in the end I decided on a simple grading system (the good ole’ A-F scale…not the bizarre A-E scale used by ACT schools):

What grade do you give Barack Obama for the first 100 days of his presidency?

If you would care to explain the reason for your grade in the comments below, that would be great, but you are under no obligation to do so.

The last poll came up with the answer I was expecting:

Boat people should be…

Total Votes: 23
Started: April 28, 2009

Not an unsurprising mix of responses by any means.

Stimulated, at last!

Do you have any idea how frustrating it is to have no money (I had $3 left), have a bunch of invoices falling due and have absolutely no idea how much longer it will take Kevin Rudd to find my bank account? Welcome to my life.

Thankfully Kevin found my bank account a few minutes ago and deposited $900.

So, today, invoice catchup, that pesky GST bill, a whole heap of biscuits to send to the US, a book to buy, a person to repay, and then I think I’ll see about moving the bulk of the remainder in to the savings account…I won’t make much interest from it, but any income is good right now.
