2004 Koufax Award Finalists For Most Humorous Post
It is hard to write something that is funny. Whenever I try, it seems to fall flat. The writers listed below do not have that trouble.
We had a huge number of nominations for the Most Humorous Post of 2004. All were amusing in one degree or another. The following nine posts are not just amusing. They are sidesplitting, coffee spewing, pee in your pants funny. Handle with extreme care.

Poker with Dick Cheney. I prefer a few Fafblog posts, but this was the best one up.

What Kerry Should Say, Part 2 by the Rude Pundit. A concise and damn funny expression of all our anger from this year.

Oh, and the url is messed up in the link. Here it is: Rude Pundit.
Posted by: Lee | February 12, 2005 09:03 PM
Thanks Lee, I had the right URL but the wrong html. Fixed now. The first of many errors, I am sure. Still, posting a bad link to the Rude Pundit is not a good idea.

It's more painful than funny now that we're into the second term of the worst president ever, but it's still a brilliant piece of work.

Mr. Bérubé's RNC Convention post is, probably, the best thing I read about the entire convention. Someday it will be analyzed in intro Humanities classes alongside "Death in Venice."
