Funny One 2012

Hello Funny One here. I thought I would just review some of my pictures from this year. I know I haven’t been on that long, just a few months.

This picture is of me and Andy Samberg in Hawaii. I just thought it would look funny if Andy was being the creep and sneaking up on me.

Goofy with beach boobs. There are no words for that.

Me at a rodeo. That would happen to me. Hehehehehe!

This picture is of me and Andy Samberg again. Captain Underpants is from Ohio. I just thought this would look really funny.

This is of me in a bath filled of cola. that would be pretty awesome. Sticky, but awesome.

This is me on Venus. My most like picture. 7 likes. I guess I didn’t do too bad with this picture then.

This is me on Neptune. I like the idea of drawing a picture all in blue. I thought it didn’t look too bad. What do you think?

This is one of my funny one cartoons. I know it’s a mad idea but one of my favorites.

Another one of my favorites. wouldn’t it be cool if you could send yourself by e-mail. I would only end up in the junk mail though. Hehehehehe!

This is probably my favorite picture. I wanted to get the lighting just right. I think it’s not bad.

Mitt Romney shooting big bird. I drew that one really quickly and don’t think it’s that bad.

A good fuck for good luck. I love this picture. My family love it too. My sister, Miss Loca said it’s one her favorite’s.

I just like to draw Andy Samberg. I love the episode with the cat. So funny!

This is what Andy Samberg would loo like as a character from Diary Of A Wimpy Kid. Cool! He looks great!

I’m really happy with this picture of President Obama.

This is my favorite part of the funny one boat series.

This is of Andy Samberg in the movie Celeste And Jesse Forever. Andy was amazing in that movie.

My Dear Pluto…

Hello – Funny One here. Today is Pluto. Is it a planet or not? It was a planet for 76 years until it was reclassified as a dwarf planet in 2006. It’s the farthest planet from the Sun and also the smallest planet. It’s atmosphere is composed of a thin layer of gas containing carbon monoxide, methane, and nitrogen. The atmospheric pressure has been estimated to be 1/700,000 compared with that of Earth. It’s the only planet to have been discovered in the Twentieth Century. Pluto has 5 moons. In Roman mythology, Pluto is the god of the underworld. I still think that Pluto is a planet. My picture is of me on Pluto which is now American.

I’ve drawn another “Funny One” cartoon.  Another attempt at getting into America. One Day I will return.

#3 “Funny One’s Gonna Fly Now”

New York is One in a Million

Hello, it’s the Funny One here. Today it’s the last state, New York. I have no idea what I’ll do now. The picture is of me dressed like the Statue of Liberty. Me and my sister went there last year. I got vertigo while climbing up it. You can buy tickets in advance on their website or in person at the box office near the ferry departure points. Here’s the website: http://www.statueoflibertytickets.com/ There are also Liberty Helicopters Sightseeing Tours. The Big Apple tour is 15 minutes or you can go on the NY tour which is 20 minutes. It costs $30.00 per person.

We saw the Empire State Building, We didn’t actually go in but we did walk past it and got some photos taken of it. It has two observatories, and an open air terrace on the 86th floor that contains an indoor viewing gallery for chillier days. Outside, they have high-powered binoculars so you’ll get a great view of the city. The other Observatory is on the 102nd floor. It’s the highest public point in New York City. Maybe one day I’ll get over my vertigo and go.

Like I said in my first blog, me and my sister went on the tour of the NBC building. It was amazing. The staff there were making jokes. It must be really fun to work there. I hope that one day I’m lucky enough to be on Saturday Night Live. I love it! We also saw the Radio City Music Hall. We didn’t go in but we went to a shop that’s opposite it (and, yes, we got photos!)They do have a tour of the building where you can see the theater, lounges and corridors of the most iconic theater in New York!; The Rockefeller Center, with soaring views of Top of the Rock to a backstage pass at NBC Studios, every tour at Rockefeller Center will bring you inside and behind-the-scenes of to some of the city’s most beloved treasures. Rock n Roll baby!

On our trip, we managed to visit the FDNY Fire Zone and saw some of the tools and equipment they use. They’re so big and heavy-looking! We also tried on some firefighter jackets, too. They also have a model fire truck there and we took pictures of us in it. Now, for all you souvenir-savvy travellers, they have a gift shop (check out the HOT calendars!!!!). I couldn’t go there without getting a souvenir (a notebook and pen, for writing down all my crazy ideas!)

We also saw Times Square. It really is amazing. There was also a huge ads for The Lonely Island album Turtleneck And Chain, when we went, which was very distracting. I kept seeing that picture almost everywhere on the top of the cabs. That album was released on the last day we were there so I was lucky enough to buy it before going to the airport. Unfortunately when I returned to Scotland there was a crack on the cover. Shit! I guess that’s what you call a cracking album!!!

There’s the Museum of Comic and Cartoon Art. Every genre of the is represented: comic strips, animation, caricature, graphic novels, humorous illustration, anime, illustration, comic books, cartoons, political illustration, sports cartoons, computer-generated art, editorial cartoons and gag cartoons. Cool! That would be interesting to visit.

The Guggenheim Museum, from October 5th to January 23rd there will be an exhibition which focuses in-depth on Pablo Picasso’s exploration of a black-and-white palette. There are 110 works, including paintings as well as some sculptures and several works on paper. And, yes, there’s a gift shop, too! They sell cool bright Urbanears Headphones. There is also the Wright restaurant where you can have Organic Scottish Salmon Tartare Avacado and Cucumbers, Salmon Caviar and a wine. Or there is Cafe 3 where you can get a beer and a sandwich. Both sound good to me.

Staying with food there’s the Slice of Brooklyn Bus Tours. The tour is 4 1/2 hours which covers pizza and Brooklyn. You’ll get award-winning Neapolitan-style pizza at Grimaldi’s under the Brooklyn Bridge, the legendary Sicilian-style pizza at L&B Spumoni Gardens in Bensonhurst. The tour includes seeing the locations from movies that were filmed in Brooklyn such as Scent of a Woman, Annie Hall and Goodfellas and many more movies.

The New York City Police Museum has a permanent multi-media exhibit that “keeps track of the extraordinary role that the NYPD played in response to September 11, 2001. There are on-camera interviews, striking photographs, and numerous Ground Zero artifacts.” The exhibit tells of the dramatic and remarkable story of New York’s Finest, through their own words from their experiences. There’s also the Hall of Heroes that honors the brave men and women who have served nobly,  placing their responsibility to the City before all other matters. Gift shop, too!

There’s the United Nations Headquarters, We didn’t go in but we did get some photos of it. There are FREE exhibits at the Visitors Lobby which feature photographic, art, and multimedia presentations by world-renowned photographers, artists and global institutions on varied topics such as climate change, human rights, malaria, children in armed conflict, plus lots more. It’s free to see these exhibits and the galleries can be viewed daily from 9:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. You can also get a guided tour of the building (remember, the visitors’ entrance closes at 4:45 p.m.) They’ve also got a Coffee Shop, UN Bookshop, UN Gift Shop and other shops. UN-believeable!

Who wants to know where some movie locations are? I do! Did you know that some of the movie Godfather was filmed in New York? Michael Corleone and his fiancée, Kay stayed at the St. Regis Hotel. http://exclusives.stregis.com/St-Regis-New-York-Hotel-81/so.htm?PS=PS_aa_NorthNY_NorthNY_-_Google_-_BD_new_york_st_regis_Exact_110810_NAD_FM The baptism scene in the Godfather was filmed in the Old Cathedral, also was the scene in Godfather Part 3 where Michael Corleone receives an honor from the church. It was also used in a scene from Martin Scorsese’s movie Mean Streets. It was the set in the cathedral’s walled graveyard. 128 Mott Street,  New York is where Vito Corleone’s attempted assassination took place. The hotel from the movie Home Alone 2 – Lost in New York is the Plaza hotel where I’ve always wanted to stay in there ever since I first saw the movie. One day I will. http://www.theplaza.com/

Champagne Bubbles and Popcorn Delights

Hello, It’s me the Funny One. Me and my sister watched Sylvester Stallone movies today. We watched Rocky, Rocky 2 and the Expendables. He really is talented. Rocky Balboa is a really likeable character. I really need to get a job in a pet shop! I’m going to have to watch the rest of the Rocky movies soon.

Today’s state is Colorado. The picture is of me in a hot air balloon, I’m not alone in it as you can see. Hehehehe. The hot air balloon rides take place in the morning, and you can see some of the most wonderful views of Colorado. There’s even a post-flight champagne toast. Mmmmm champagne. Who doesn’t like champagne?

The Buffalo Bill Museum and Grave – the museum has exhibits that focus on the life, times and legacy of William “Buffalo Bill” Cody, telling the story of Buffalo Bill and how his legacy developed. Don’t forget to go to the gift shop for some souvenirs. They have mugs, t-shirts and other stuff. There’s also a cafe. They have homemade fudge. Mmmmm homemade fudge.

The Denver Firefighters Museum  has been housed in the original Firehouse Number 1 ever since 1909. go there and  explore over a century of historical artifacts, fascinating exhibits in  the Museum!

There’s the One Hundred Gold Mine Tour. In 1872, the three Neigold brothers arrived from Germany and staked their claim on the “Number Seven” vein. Reinhard, Gustave, and Otto Neigold then spent the next 30 years prospecting and developing the veins on Galena Mountain. Either before or after the tour, you can pan for real silver, gold and semi-precious gemstones in the sluice boxes outside the mine. And the best bit is that you get to keep what you find!

There’s the Molly Brown House Museum, the home of Titanic survivor Margaret Tobin Brown. It’s one of only a few history organizations in Denver that provides both on-site and off-site educational programming. Included in the guided tours of Margaret “Molly” Brown’s home is an environmental theater program that brings Victorian literature to life, and etiquette teas that lets us know about the cultural customs of the Victorian era. The Off-site traveling programs will include mining, the industrial revolution, the science of restoration, and civic activism.

The Colorado Railroad Museum. Did you know that the main museum building was completed in 1959 and resembles an 1880-era small town railroad depot. The Depot Museum has thousands of rare photographs, artifacts and documents illustrating the colorful history of the railroads which have served Colorado for over 125 years.

There’s Nothing Wimpy about South Dakota!!!

Hello, Funny One here. I went to the cinema with my mom and sisters to see the movie “Diary Of A Wimpy Kid 3 – Dog Days” today. It’s so funny! I loved the scene where Rodrick gets the kiss of life from some bald guy! hahahaha You should go see it! It was really busy there. Someone made a shitty smell. I mean really shitty! Think of a really bad shitty smell and times it by ten, then double it! Plus, add a skunk fart and a hint of baby-bio then you’ve got it. Speaking of shit, I almost bought a huge poster of Justin Bieber. I know what you’re thinking. Why the hell would I buy a Justin Bieber poster? I was buying more Batman and Spiderman posters today and the Batman and Bieber ones got mixed up. They both had the number 3 on them. I only discovered it was the wrong poster when I noticed a check shirt on it. Anyways, I put it back and got the right one. Phew!

What can you do in South Dakota? You can see Mount Rushmore. On the 4th of July, there is a firework display from the top of the monument. That would be super cool to see!

You want to know more about the history of South Dakota, then you can visit these places: The Broken Boot Gold Mine, where informed guides will show you where the miners pursued gold ore veins with black powder and candlelight. Also there is the Four Mile Old West Town, Black Hills Caverns, Black Hills Mining Museum, and The Mitchell Prehistoric Indian Village, which is the only archaeological site in South Dakota that is open to the public. You should definitely go then. Visitors to the site will be able to see the many artifacts that have been excavated during the annual digs. You will even be able to have a tour to see the dig site itself in the comfort of the Thomsen Center Archeodome.

Do you like reptiles? If yes then visit the Reptile Gardens. You will see the five reptiles: snakes, crocodilians, lizards, turtles and tuatara. http://www.reptilegardens.com/

Kevin Costner has a bar there! I didn’t know that. It’s called the Midnight Star. Get drunk and look at his movie costumes.

What about teddy bears? If you do there’s the Teddy Bear Town,  and is home to the Guinness World Record’s “Largest Teddy Bear Collection.”  There are over 7,500 different Teddy Bears. Different colors and sizes. It is also listed in Ripley’s Believe It or Not.

There’s even a Corn Palace. It’s open all year round and it’s FREE to visit. I’ll have to go and visit then. It’s never completely bare, so you can always see a building that is the World’s Largest Bird Feeder! Also you can get a Corn Palace T-shirt, Caramel Apple Cobs and even some Corn on the Cob Soap. http://www.cornpalace.org/

What about the candy? There’s a candy store called “Old Fashioned Fudge”, and they have 30 different types of fudge. Mmmmmm fudge.

The Lone Wolf

Hello, It’s me again. Today’s picture is Minnesota. I didn’t know this but they have turtle racing there. Cool! They also have an International Wolf Center and some caves. Anyways, I finished my letter and I scanned some funny pictures for the newspaper on the computer but I hadn’t realized I fucked up. I made a spelling mistake on it. Shit. Of course when I saw it, I crumpled up the picture. Some days it feels like you’re getting nowhere. Anyways, what to do in Minnesota? Go for a ride in a hot air balloon!  Look at the amazing views of the landscape of Minnesota. Or you could take a ride in a helicopter. If you don’t like heights then you can go on the Steamboat Minniehaha. I wouldn’t say no to going on it. The website is http://www.steamboatminnehaha.org. Take an Amish tour and you’ll be transported back to life in 1800’s. Horses and buggies, kerosene lamps and wood burning stoves. That would be interesting. There’s also the Mystery Cave Tour. It’s the longest cave in Minnesota. It’s over 13 miles underground. You will see the many features the make up the cave like stalactites, stalagmites, fossils, flowstone and underground pools. That must be amazing to see. There is a huge statue of the Jolly Green Giant. He’s 55ft tall. The statue went up on the 6th July in 1979. That would be cool to visit. There’s the Giant Museum Featuring Jolly Green Giant Memorabilia. (For legal reasons) Here’s the website of the Green Giant. http://www.jollygreengiant.co.uk/.
