Tap water... skiing... they even have four seasons per year. You may not enjoy it, but you cannot deny that it is wonderfully informative.

can this be anything but an attempt at humor. And I'll never get those 40 seconds back. I think that is how long it took to get to praising their water. Even those from IA should know that water is a tasteless, colorless liquid. I would think if water begins tasting good, they might want to check for contamination, although one can easily argue that could well be the title of this spoof. Sure they had a good time doing it though. My only ? Is how many times they had to shoot this to keep a str8 face.

That was painful to watch, but I almost want to watch it again now. It got easier to listen to the longer it went on and by the end I was singing along in my head. Plus that guitar solo was epic. BHGP is a really entertaining site. That Fran McCaffery album cover thread was epic. Not only is Jacobi funny at times but the comments can be very entertaining as well. Iowans are weird. I've known one in my life and he was one of the weirdest people I know. The fact that he was a goalie probably contributed to that as well. He used to drink shampoo before big games. He was weird.

From the article

0:09: This is already a failure on nearly every conceivable level. The state of Iowa does not float by itself in space. It is part of the Earth like every other state. AND. AND. EVEN IF we accept this ridiculous premise, you wouldn't see blue sky and clouds behind itunless you were looking up from Earth at the Space State of Iowa. And you know what? If that were the case, the Space State of Iowa would be upside down and everything would be falling off the face of the Space State of Iowa toward Earth with its much more potent gravity. So I really can't even with this already. WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO IOWA?

 

This made me think of Mel Brooks.  The only thing missing is the intended /s.

was the personal bio/self promo plugs of several people involved in the video....'Ames is great....and so am/are I/we?'

They also apparently have one person who actually left someplace cool (Brooklyn) to live there...so you can throw that on the pile.
