Hugh Jackman is True American Hero.

So apparently Hugh "Wolverine" Jackman and Daniel "Bond" Craig are starring together in some sort of Broadway play about Chicago cops. It sounds pretty badass. What is not badass, but AWESOME and HILARIOUS, is the way Jackman handled a cell phone going off while they were performing said play. Check it out.


Don't judge us for stealing content from TMZ. We love this guy! And TMZ! Also, day-old pizza. True story: This one time Tim Ryan once survived for a week and a half on a discarded sheet pizza. You see he ordered a sheet pizza for a "movie night" but then only Paul Nellis showed up (because Paul has no life) and could only eat like two slices and a buffalo wing.

The JZ Technique

Attention: this post has nothing to do with rapping... different JZ.


Hey everybody, John here. So here's a common situation: You're out watchin' the game, havin' some buffalo wings.
Now, with you're wings you like some bleu cheese (This is America, we like some bleu cheese with our heart pills). Of course you eat the drumstick shaped wings first, they're easier to dip, easier to eat, and arguably taste better. So now your stuck with the wing part of the wings, and this is where the problem comes in. You've got a long, flat piece of wing, and a circular bleu chees cup!! What the hell!?! well, this is where the JZ technique comes into play. You may or may not have noticed that when you get your buffalo wings, they come with about 4 celery sticks. As it turns out, thes sticks are for more than angrily hurling to the ground. Think of these sticks as paint-brushes, to paint the delicious, cheese covered wings you crave. That's right! By using the celery as an applicator, you can put as much bleu chees on those chicken fore arms as you want.
Use this secret wisely, for until they make bleu cheese holders in the shape of a radius and ulna, it's the only way to get that sweet bleu-gold into your veins!!

The Coowist Effin' Kid Awawd

All children are 'considered' cute, all children are 'considered' equal (according to the declaration of independence... or whatever), and all children are 'considered' blank slates in regards to their impending, post-adolescent, level of coolness... but we all know that some young kids are just plain (way) better than others. Geva Comedy Improv would like to recognize those few children who rise above the social standards set forth by an unforeseen panel of diaper wearing judges (no, not the supreme court), and present them with "THE COOWIST EFFIN' KID AWAWD."

This years' awawd goes to the following young lady for her epic description of Star Wars Episode 5.



Sure she sat through the movie with a wet diaper... but so did Paul Nellis. Congratulations little ms. cool, and may the force be with you.

Chainsaw Maid

In honor of our forthcoming Halloween shows, here's a fantastically gory claymation. It has zombies. And a chainsaw. Sweet.

GCI-LARP

This past weekend, when our debut Season 7 shows were finished, GCI cast members Ted, John and Paul donned the garments of ages past and battled honorably in the Dagorhir battle games with the local Winterfell Chapter. Short on sleep, and inspired by... well, we're not sure what inspired them, but here are some picture from the battle.


Getting to know your fellow warriors is not as awkward as one might suspect.

John enlists with an army of the undead.

Ted is given a foam-padded spear and enlisted to fight alongside a Roman phalanx.

Cut off a woman's leg? Not a problem for John.

In a decidedly epic moment, Paul is SQUASHED INTO THE GROUND.

Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Bacon

As is apparent in Corinne's previous post, we here at GCI have an immense appreciation for all things culinary. Recently, the GCI editorial research department came across this clip from the TV show "Wifeswap" and brought it to my attention - thankfully, this travesty was caught on film for all the World to bear witness:



Stand tall little man Curtis - we here at GCI salute you, your culinary courage, and that adorable tiny blue suitcase which we can only assume is filled with bacon...

Chef Corinne endorses Grits!!!



Sometimes when I find a favorite food it's more or less all I eat until I get sick
of it.

The summer the movie Harriet the Spy came out all I ate was tomatoes, with american cheese, mayo on white bread because that was her favorite food. That summer I also only drank orange kool-aid.

The summer I was 19, I thought eating olives was classy but I hated them, so I ate them every day until I liked them and now I love them.

There was also a liver and onions with bacon phase and a hot turkey sandwich with french fries (gravy on the fries)phase.

The latest to hit my tummy is grits.

It began at James Browns place, my favorite breakfast spot where I always get my favorite: the dixie plate.
2 sausage links, 2 eggs (over easy), a biscuit, grits, and sausage gravy.

I began to make them at home and it's more or less all I've been eating for 2 weeks.

I like them with 2 poached eggs, chopped green onion, and cheddar cheese.
I've also made broccoli and cheese grits that were very good.
But nothing really beats James Brown's where I can put sausage and sausage gravy in my grits.

I hiiiiiighhhhhly recommend it. Make your own or hit up James Browns!! YUMMM!!!
