Just happened to catch a show about J.K. Rowling in passing on the Biography Channel, in which there were little snippets about the movie by the actors. They were mentioning certain practical jokes being played on the set, and Daniel Radcliffe said something about a scene with several hundred other kids (and lots of girls). Unbeknownst to him, Alan Rickman had snuck a remote-controlled fart machine into a rucksack between him and another boy. They both were accusing each other of the rude noises.

Did I hear rightly? Alan? A fart machine?

*Snerk*

I'm sorry - I'm as easily amused as a twelve-year old boy. Apparently, so is Alan. Hee.

My Annual Father's Day post...

And you're going to see it here every year, probably, because it's funny. And maybe someone hasn't heard it yet. I am forever grateful to Prairie Home Companion, where I first heard it. ;)

Laws Concerning Food and Drink/Household Principles/Lamentations of the Father by Ian Frazier

(Scroll down to 28:42 - links on the side to listen in realplayer - really, you have to hear it spoken)

Text - if you'd rather read it

I get tears in my eyes from laughing every time. Especially the line:

"And leave the cat alone, for what has the cat done that you should so afflict it with tape?"
