Cru Jones Society

 

Whether you throw your shoulder into it, kick it in as if it were protected by Brinks, or straight up Hulk smash it, we don’t care just do whatever it takes to break those walls down. On the other side of the walls are some links about furless bears, the co-workers you hate, and some kick ass stop motion videos. Now get the walls down, come on it and let’s begin.

First order of business this week might be what Katt Williams would refer to as Pimpin’ pimpin’. I say might because I’m not actually sure what that means, but we’ll go with it. Several Fridays ago we mentioned the wonderful columns of The Redhead. In case you forgot she writes a sex column and sex toy review, the type of chick CJS can totally get on board with. Well, she is hosting a Tweetup toy drive and trivia night and she asked the Cru Jones Society to lend a hand or two. Not being ones to turn down invites from bodacious babes, we happily agreed. So with that we want to invite all our fantastic readers to come along. So grab a new toy, put on your trivia robe (we know you have one) and join us Thursday for an evening of fine fun.

Now that you did something productive and signed up for a toy drive, let’s get to the time wasting portion of Happy Friday. We’ve got a doozey of a way to waste the first hour or so of your day, a bunch of videos! Hopefully you’re able to watch these fun, humorous, and some times poignant videos from Nebulusvisions.com. The latest one from these aspiring young film makers has the protagonist making the best of a flooded room.  The stop motion stuff is a blast to watch, and there is a lot of smile inducing music. Go ahead and watch as many of the clips as you can. Then come on back and continue with Happy Friday.

Last week we were looking out for your prostate health with an article about a gentleman starting a “Pints for Prostate” campaign. We care about our readers and want you to stay healthy and keep reading. To that end we support those who are also on the look out for health issues and have gone about it in a fun way. CassieB sent us this link, and perhaps you have seen one of your friends post it on Facebook. We know CJS regulars Twodogzk and Salwon are participating. It’s called Movemeber and you grow a mustache in order to raise funds for charities. Not that we need an excuse to grow a mustache, but it is more fun when it’s for a good cause. Now put the razor away and enjoy the rest of the month with a hairy lip, not to be confused with a hair lip.

Four days and twenty years ago the Berlin Wall came down. Kind of a big deal. When it went up, in 1961, a young man was leaving Hollywood for a career in politics. Little did anyone know, Mr. Bedtime for Bonzo himself would be the one leading the charge to bring down the wall. Here is some insight as to how he made that happen. And subsequently started the movement of actors becoming overly vocal about their political opinions.

Just when we think not having a wall separating Germany is pretty cool, CassieB sends us a link with some nightmarish bears from within the land of brats and beer. These normally cuddly looking bears are suffering from some sort of disease causing them to lose their fur and leaving them looking scary as hell. If they didn’t look so docile we would have guessed these were pictures of the chupacabra, that is if we believed that thing existed. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

It has been said music soothes the savage beast, even scary ass furless bears. Now even though the rumors of Steven Tyler leaving Aerosmith were false, it does spark an idea in our heads that eventually bands cease to exist and make new music and we must rely on new bands to entertain us. As great as Myspace and itunes and the like are for music, they cannot recreate the enjoyment from seeing a band in a little dive underground venue. Unfortunately many of those underground venues are closing down. Another sign of the economy? Perhaps. Just one more example of how the music industry is constantly changing. We hate to see this happen and we encourage everyone to support their local music scene. Remember, it could become the stuff your children end up listening to.

While we’re talking about hitting the local music clubs let’s use this obvious segue for this week’s confessional. What was your first concert? Were you dragged along to a Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young concert by your parents? Was it NKOTB thus fanning the crush flame you had on Joey? Or were you older and able to catch Crucial Taunt at the Gasworks? Whatever the show was we want you to share it with us and all our readers. As always send your response to staff@crujonessociety.com and check in Monday.

So you think just by looking you can tell the real from the fake? Pictures that is. Well, we challenge you to prove that. Yeah that’s right, we’re giving you yet another test, but don’t worry ladies, it is not a baseball test. Life magazine has dug through their archives and compiled a nice collection of real and fake photos to test your ability to decipher them. There are 30 of them, no cheating, and time starts…now!

Do you ever have a co-worker lurking over your shoulder as you try to enjoy the comedy we bring to you daily here at Cru Jones Society? If not, then bonus points for you. But chances are the other types of annoying co-workers on this list can be found in your office. In fact we’re willing to bet that as you read over the descriptions you’re placing your own co-workers to it. If you read one and can’t place anyone to it, sorry to break this, but that one is you.

*

Just a few more hours of those annoying folks and then it is weekend time and that usually means becoming a slave to alcohol. So with that in mind we give you some insight as to what your evening may be like. It’s a definite blue print to Hart’s night, sans the fight as he’s kind of a vagine. So ladies, you have been warned.

One last thing about those co-workers of yours…

Only a few more hours everyone.
