My God, that's great! "What George Bush sees when he closes his eyes." "Automobiles are dangerous too." "If you're a Kennedy..." "You vill obey." I've only seen the first couple minutes, I've got dialup and it downloads at about 3kbps. But I've got a bad feeling that I've seen this before...

Narrarator: But she makes a habit of being ready for special days. Joshway: It's the day of Reckoning, and she loaded her gun before she went to bed.
Joshway: Objection, your honor. The narrarator is badgering the witness.
Joshway: You can't hide your sins from the narrarator, Barbara.
You are a genius.

You're far too kind, cerrita. Glad you're still enjoying them! And here's this week's new short: Destination Earth!A little yellow Martian learns how awesome Earth is because of oil and capitalism. Unfortunately I had to cut a lot out of this one to fit it on YouTube. But I'll put the full version on the DVD I'll be making soon.

Well, I finally got a chance to see a couple more of these, since my 'net connection has been funky lately and I hardly ever make it to this board on my daily journeys around the web. Anyway. I just saw "Duck and Cover" and "How to be Well Groomed" for the first time...
Duck and Cover
My main comment on this is dear god, this is scary. "Sick and WRONG!" as Ron Stoppable would say. It's soooooooo disturbing. Gah. To think, our parents were raised with advice like this, actually believing it... "Well, I thought you were supposed to lie down, or put a paper bag over your head, or something." "Yeah. If you like." "Oh, will that help?" "No."
Well Groomed
"At least it will distract them from Don's cross-dressing." "Remember: Looking unique is of course wrong." "For a list of YOUR shortcomings, write to Coronet Films..." The line about how _any_ hairstyle is okay, as long as it looks good on you, is interesting. So, what, you could have a spiked blue mohawk if it looked good on you, according to this narrator? Sweet! :P
As usual, the MSTer's version of what the characters are _really_ like is way more interesting than the real one. I like Don a lot better as a psycho-killer crossdresser. ;)
I think I probably would've made some riff about "GAH! The narrator changed gender all of a sudden!" the first time they went to the lady narrator, myself, but that's just me...
Anyway, good stuff! I look forward to the others, when I can finally watch them. I wish YouTube had some way of right-clicking and downloading, or making sure the _whole_ thing is loaded before it even gives you the Play button. With my wonky connection, it keeps playing a little bit and then FREEZE and then a few seconds more and then FREEZE and then a few seconds more and then FREEZE
...etc, ad nauseum, which is EXTREMELY annoying. Let it load longer in the first place, if that'll let me watch it properly! As it is, my only way now is to let it play all the way through once without my looking at it, which usually takes much longer than its actual run-time, then replay it once it's in recent memory. Why won't they let you download? Argh. I've never liked streaming video anyway. It _always_ has problems.
But the things are funny--when I CAN see them--and I'm definitely going to watch the others. :)
...Notorious

Wow, Cleolanta, thanks for braving your wonky connection to watch these! I appreciate it.

Volume one of "Fun With Shorts" is now collected on DVD - featuring 8 shorts from my YouTube channel (uncut versions), and a 17 minute bonus short called "Prom: It's a Pleasure!" that's not available online. If you'd like a copy, PayPal $5 to joshway (at) optonline (dot) net. (You don't need a PayPal account to pay through them.) Make sure to mention Fun with Shorts Vol. 1, your name, your address, and your MST board username. If you have any issues or questions just PM me. DVD will be delivered in no-frills packaging, because it's content that matters! (And FYI, all the videos on this disc are in the public domain.) Sorry for hocking stuff through the board, but I know some of you were interested in this.
