Jersey Shore Gone Wilde
& Mashterpiece Theatre


WARNING: NSFW Language & Content - These Mashup Parodies of the Jersey Shore Includes Talk of Smooshing, Hair Gel, Your Sister, Grenades, and Juicehead Guidos. If you are easily put out of sorts with such earthy discourse and repartee do pray, pass on these amusing bon mots! You have been thusly warned!
Since Blogger has banned in my district...and I've had to move my school blog (no, not this one dear reader) I now somehow feel more free to push the envelope as it were... with snarkdom & questionable language to illustrate brilliant satire!
Thusly, too good not to share darlings, this "is a collection Jersey Shore clips being performed in the style of Oscar Wilde. The rather amusing videos, on par with the similarly brilliant Victorian Vision of Ogden's The Wire (LOVE Me some Wire! -GJ) , are the side project of Santino Fontana and David Furr, the two leads in the new Broadway production of Wilde's classic The Importance of Being Earnest. The nattily-attired, British-accented pair have taken it upon themselves to reenact actual transcripts from Jersey Shore episodes, somehow lending each line—"I'm hungover, I'm not having a good time, and work blows dick for skittles right now" —more gravitas than we ever thought possible." By Jamie Feldmar

I will show episode one....and five.

For those in between please do journey to The YouTubes for the whole short series. Not to be undone...dear Cecily has created - Mashertpiece Theatre



Remember, these are the actual transcripts...so do not throw an askance glance at Cecily for the words did spout from Snooki's mouth!

So what do you think? Want more? Well Cecily & friends have created several...and all just amusingly inapropriate! Another series that dear Cecily has created is a Mashterpiece Theatre version of Saved by the Bell! Not.to.miss. Alice G dear....that one was for you!
And lest you think the brain trusts that are the original Jersey Shore cast can't reach for that brass ring of thrilling thespianship. I give you this!

    HILARIOUS...although my husband found it disturbing that I had to pause Mob Wives to watch these videos. Yes, we can say pop culture obsessed :)

Makerspace for Little or Nothing

Makerspace for Little or Nothing You don't have to spend thousands of dollars to start a Makerspace area. You don't have to have a designated room or rip out bookcases. You can even have a Makerspace on a cart! When we have testing in our Library, I put all our Makerspace stuff on an AV cart and roll it into our server room.  This post evolved from a previous post called Makerspace Starter Kit Updated where I had some of these idea, but I felt that it deserved it's own expanded post. You can take baby steps into the Maker Movement.  I've been saying that for 7 years or so....long before I blogged about it, I tried it out. Yeah, sometimes I try things on the sly to see if they are blogworthy for you! Now....having said that..... WARNING: Controversial Opinion Ahead.  I'm not 100% sold, even after 7 years of talking about the Maker Movement, that it's something that's here to stay and not just a fad. Even though I've (without knowing it!)

Makerspace Starter Kit Updated

Image
Three years ago I shared my Makerspace Starter Kit with you or what I was buying to boost our Makerspace area using four empty Library study carrels that no longer held desktop Macs.  That post has consistently been one of the most viewed posts every week for years and years - with more than 83 THOUSAND views, gee whiz! (Crazy, right?) So, I thought maybe it was time to update it!*  Since then, I've had some major Makerspace successes and a couple dismal (and expensive) Makerspace failures!  So, here's the latest for ya'll with the good, the bad, and the bloody awful! Our MHMS Makerspace How it works: Kids can come in before the 1st period late bell rings, during lunch, or when they've finished their work in class to explore, craft, and create in the Library Media Center. It's not a "class" or an organized offering. It's a free form optional offering of constructivist learning and creativity! It's not as big as some and it hasn't tak

Curating the Happy for Your Future Self

Teacher Tip #112 Teacher Self-Care:  Create a Happy Folder In my School Library Media office desk I had a manilla folder where I carefully tucked all the hand written notes from kiddos & parents to read on a rainy day. I also SHAMELESSLY would first tape them to my office door (let the other teachers internally writhe with envy!)  Nah, really just to keep me motivated and also show the kiddos I appreciated their heartfelt little notes!  But.....before I tucked it away tenderly or taped it to my door, I took a picture of it and uploaded it to Flickr. A digital Happy Folder that pays back dividends of warm fuzzies and motivations for your future self.  Because, let's not kid ourselves, being an educator right now is HARD.  Start this habit NOW.  Don't be like me and wait 10 or 15 years. OK, some of that was because cell phones and digital cameras weren't as handy and as ubiquitous back then. But do your future self a favor, there will be days when you will need it.  Make
