Colbert Declares War on Amazon, Via Cardboard Box

[on a scale from wit to whimsy: Um, this one goes off the scale ;-)]

Colbert declares war on Amazon, due to loss of book sales through his publisher Hachette. Close your eyes and ears intermittently if you have a delicate cursing constitution. Otherwise, laugh out loud. Colbert is funny, even if book sale declines are no laughing matter.

Sports Humor: Dwight Howard and the Center for Centers

[on a scale from wit to whimsy: Parody]

I never played basketball, though I’m the sort of person often asked not if I played but where. Of course, I’m also the sort of person nabbed by diminutive redheads with AARP cards and a bit too much perfume so early in the day, taken by the hand to the granola section of the cereal aisle in the supermarket where that one little box of cranberry almond is pushed way to the back on the very top shelf, and couldn’t I just be a sweetheart and reach up there to get it and put it in her cart.

I’ve raised two Centers, though. I feel for them, the big men left out in the cold in the NBA All-Star balloting. After I grab a tissue from the sidebar because of this moving video from Dwight Howard, I’m going to see about making a contribution to Dwight’s fund to save the Center.

How can you write funny? (Or, film funny.)

Sometimes it’s as simple as taking something routine and standing it on its head.

What if your next business conference call took place in physical space, instead of over the airwaves?

Try your own hand at business humor, and let us know how it goes 🙂
