I was watching a show on Showtime last night at the same time I was reading posts on this forum and thought it was interesting. I posted it last night but apparently it got censored. I'll try to sterilize even further this time for everyone's safety and see what happens.
The show was Penn and Teller's, uh, "Male Cow Dung". It's a half hour show where they criticize the idiocracy that goes along with a specific topic. Ususally filled with lame jokes, but still better than most of the other mind-numbing garbage on TV. That reminds me, I missed American Idol last night. I was getting caught up on Britney Spears hair-do and Anna Nicole's burial. Phooey. Oh well, they are very important public figures that everyone should be educated about.
Anyway, the one last night was about Pet Lovers. They had a 3 minute segment at "a well-known Illinois reptile show". A large, slow-talking man dressed in camoflauge and red suspenders talked about why ball pythons are so popular, as he held a pied. He said how cool it is when something hatches out that nobody's ever seen before, because of the "hidden genetics" in ball pythons. At that point, Teller's voice over chimed in saying, "There's just something unnerving about the cast of Hee Haw getting involved in genetic engineering". LOL! They also had a guy molesting an anaconda to make it gape and hiss. Cut to a doctor of some type saying that, "Some animals just don't belong in the average household". Teller's comment this time, "Gee, do ya think"? As the guy's 3 friends wrestle the incredibly threatening 5 foot anaconda off his arm.
They also covered cat shows and people that have dozens of cats. And a guy that invented artificial testicle implants for dogs. That was quite amusing too.
