Weapons dealers&#8217; marketing materials are often a great source of unintentional black comedy, however, there are no words to adequately describe this gem found by the excellent 3 Quarks daily. 
Israeli arms company, Rafael, decided to create a Bollywood style promotional video for the Aero India 2009 show in Bangalore. The truly weird result is [...]]]></description>

Sometimes truth is no stranger to fiction. America&#8217;s only serious news comes from a comedy channel. 
US network and cable news are an embarrassment, a children&#8217;s view of the world based upon geographical and historical ignorance delivered by people who look like Long Island realtors and whose opinions should be deemed equally suspect.

There are long tracts of glass in the Sahara, caused by meteorites skidding across the sand and melting it. Glass looks pretty and feels precious, but sand does not, and this is perhaps part of the reason why people perceive glass recycling to be a valuable exercise &#8211; something that is debatable at best.

Robert Newman combines comedy and history in fantastically entertaining monologues such as his &#8216;History of Oil&#8217; theater production.
In this new 6 part series, Newman looks at history as if time flowed backwards. The opening scene, for example, comments on the ethnic cleansing [...]]]></description>

This is a another great example of FEBL media. Compulsive viewing: travelogue; mysticism; jazz beards; toothless 300 year old Thai shamen.

I have never liked people who cannot laugh at themselves. I was to have to choose a single trait to measure someone&#8217;s humanity, it would be that. Laughter is a powerful weapon for those who take themselves too seriously. This documentary looks at the gradual elimination of that weapon during the Third Reich.

I&#8217;m not normally a fan of slapstick era humor, but Laurel and Hardy are an exception. Even better is the fact that this documentary features all sorts of other funny people. It is narrated by the legendary Eric Morecambe and Ernie Wise. The video quality [...]]]></description>
