Surprise Package

A package came in the mail today from Mom.

Inside, a Jeff Dunham DVD with a note.

"This is hilarious. Watch it together."

So we did. And while it was humorous, I didn't bust a gut laughing, and neither did Lance. I think my parents found it to be much funnier than we did.

Maybe it's because I'm sick (sicker than I was when I posted earlier), but I am just not in the mood to laugh right now. And also? A lot of the stuff said in that DVD would be downright offensive coming from a person, but because these things are said by puppets (and you forget that there's a person behind them), it's somehow acceptable and funny.

Of course, the website says as much. But Lance and I talked a bit about that after we watched it.

The most interesting part of the DVD, for me, anyway, was the extra footage that showed the creation of one of the puppets.

Anyway, this was one of the funnier parts...and my Mom's favorite:

I don't have to watch the clip, b/c I already know it so well. "Silence! ... I keeeel you!"

:-D

Philip LOVES Jeff Dunham. We've watched both specials numerous times. If you decide not to keep the DVD, I know of a good home for it. ;-)

I've seen this clip before and I think it is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. I cannot stop laughing when I watch it! My whole family wandered around at Christmas saying "Silence! I Keeel you!" to each other.
