FSW: Tricks, Lots of Tricks
Er, uh. Ken came up with this week’s topic when our readers failed to offer up even one suggestion. But you know what? I’m going to try again. So if you read the sketches but aren’t going to compete, comment here, or on one of the competitor blogs, with your idea for what the theme…

Friday Night Sketch War: Mad Scientist Edition
Coming a wee bit late with this wrapup, but I held out hope that Mr. Brownlee was going to get a late shot off in the battle by Monday. Alas, the originator of last Friday’s excellent theme was too bloodied from his week in the paper cut factory. But we did have a good fight.…

FSW: Dinner at Doctor Eskatos’
Let’s have a little change of pace for next week. If you read the sketches but aren’t going to compete, comment here with your idea for what the theme should be. I’ll pick my favorite and we’ll run with that. If we get no suggestions (or if we fear the suggestions we get) the honors…

FSW: Best Friends
Ever so sorry to have come up with this idjotic theme. Sadly, *this* was probably the best effort I was going to be able to produce. I went back to the well, sort of, and then let the spirit of Our Gang take over. I hope it doesn’t make y’all gag. Michael’s back on the…

FSW: Reap the Whirlwind – ***Michael’s Sketch***
Okay, crazy-man Michael is taking this no Internet (other than email, because, well, c’mon!) thing seriously. He didn’t post his sketch on his own blog tonight; he emailed it to me. So, without further ado, here’s Michael’s sketch for this week: Reap the Whirlwind(The burned out remains of a once beautiful home. Matt and Erin…

FSW: Bailout!
Okay, the funny stuff in here? The good words? Stolen from greater men than I. Or worse, stolen and munged by a degenerate just to get them to fit my nefarious needs. So, to Alan Jay Lerner, Joe Darion, and Frank Loesser, I give all my humble and feeble thanks. Ken picked out this week’s…

FSW: It’s the End of the World As We Know It
Michael’s selection for this week was the prescient apocalypse. All too close to bearing fruit, I keep hearing hoof beats and horn blasts. I tell you, if seven brothers club seven baby seals for their seven brides, I’m stocking up on bottled water tequila. Micheal’s already come through this week with a sketch about the…

FSW: Morton’s Executive Search
Okay. This week’s topic is job hunting. Nice and straightforward in honor of my upcoming job switch. And *clearly* we can avoid politics tonight.Michael’s got the call for next week, so don’t forget to read his submission when he posts it to find out what next week’s topic is. And of course, because his and…

FSW: A Game of Horse
Ken suggested this week’s theme – sports. He was looking to avoid the teeth gnashing of politics and “failing financial giants”. Let me know how he did. I’ve got the baton, so next week’s theme will be…ah yes! In honor of quitting my job today (and unfortunately taking another one,) next week’s theme will be…

Friday Night Sketch War: Change Edition
The change meme is floating in the ether a lot these days. Michael picked up on it and made it the theme for last Friday’s sketch war. Well, “sha na na na na”. Coyote sent the Justice League to do his bidding… Michael embraced the wonder of the universe…right before kicking it in the teeth……
