Here are a couple items to tickle your funny bone.  First, the Borowitz Report.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"binladen\"<\/a> In a new video that is light on his usual threats but heavy on admiration, Osama bin Laden admits that he is \u201cprofessionally envious\u201d of oil giant BP\u2019s massive oil spill, saying that it puts his efforts to create destruction and chaos to shame.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are times in an evildoer\u2019s life when one has to stand back and admire a job well done,\u201d Mr. bin Laden says in the video.  \u201cBP, you blow me away.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Al-Qaeda mastermind adds that his first thought upon seeing BP\u2019s spill was, \u201cMan, I\u2019ve got to step up my game.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mr. bin Laden claims in the video that he rarely feels envious towards other evildoers, but says he likes \u201cto use that energy to push myself to be the best terrorist I can be.\u201d<\/p>\n

As for the envy he felt after seeing BP\u2019s handiwork, the madman says, \u201cI haven\u2019t felt this way since the whole Toyota thing.\u201d  More Borowitz here.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Next, Bill Maher is often irreverent and sometimes offensive, but virtually always funny.  Here are New Rules for 5\/28.<\/font><\/p>\n

Warning:  Profanity<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n
