Woke up, hid plastic eggs around our community courtyard, got the boys up to hunt for eggs, discovered in that small window of time someone made off with a quarter of the eggs. Not very Jesus-y, neighbors.

If this sin’t a sign I don’t know what to tell you
If you believe in God (and more specifically Jesus), here are your signs. And they’re incredibly heavy-handed, too.

What if you died and went to Heaven and you were the only one there
Shout “Dad! I’m home” as loud as you can?
This gives me an idea. Need to noodle it a bit.
Are you still noodling?

Look at him sitting there, so innocent and pure, totally unaware that just a few feet away I’m quietly eating the last of his leftover Valentine’s Day candy.

Garry Shandling is dead. This is awful. I’ll tell you why.
Yes, he’s that politician guy from the Iron Man movies or whatever. But, that’s not his greatest contribution. It’s not hyperbole to say, if it weren’t for him, we wouldn’t have shows like Veep and The Daily Show and Entourage and all reality shows and pretty much every other comedy on television. That’s because he literally changed comedy forever with two shows.
It’s Garry Shandling’s Show dissected the standard half-hour sitcom, often breaking the fourth wall and calling out specific tropes and insights, which pretty much no other show before had ever done.
The Larry Sanders Show skewered not only the world of late night talk shows, but celebrities in general, allowing real stars to play fictionalized or at least embellished versions of themselves behind the scenes. And it was all done within an actual late night talk show.
If you’re not familiar with these shows, please go track them down and watch them.

Prepare for some batshit nonsensical cartoons.
