VIDEO OF THE DAY

Since Labor Day weekend Big Bird has done nothing but brag about spending the holiday at his top-secret, top-sexy Kenyan getaway where his seeds are served in hollowed out coconuts and delivered to his cabana by volcano-hot models. But it’s important to remember that everything in his story is probably, you know, completely untrue. He probably spent his vacation in the Ozarks somewhere, jacked up on Redbull and telling the woodland animals that he is the ancient god Thoth. – Kiran

By now it should be sinking in as you sit down at your computer on this post-Labor Day Tuesday morning: Summer is over, burned off in this weekend’s triple-digit heat. I’ll be making peace with the unofficial beginning of Fall by soothing my catastrophically sunburnt skin with some delicious and emotionally available Twinkies. – Shaan

Happy Labor Day. Let’s all get together and celebrate by seizing the means of production! Sound good? – Kiran

Tomorrow is the beginning of my three day holiday of sunlight — a journey so intense I just might be tan enough to assume multiple new ethnic identities. I plan to use my free time to sleep and work on my new hobby: peeling the dead skin from my shoulders and saving it all in a pile, which I will slowly mold into a life-size replica of myself. – Kiran

                                                               DO YOU NEED A WRITER?

As some of you know, our closest friend, Apu Nahasapeemapetillion, has just completed his tour of duty at Dartmouth. He even graduated cum laude. (But don’t tell his parents, or he’ll shame his family as the only Indian who failed to pull magna.)

Apu is a talented writer who knows how to type words and create sentences but has yet to land his first writing gig. His need for employment is so desperate, in fact, that he’s actually contemplating a move to a far mid-western land where people wear trucker hats (un-ironically) and watch NASCAR (also un-ironically).

If you’re interested in Apu’s talents and labor, please, please, please send all correspondence to apu@kiranandshaansworld.com. – Kiran

While recuperating in bed last week, I had the opportunity to peruse the emails choking my in-box and was pleased as peas reading all your comments. And today I would like to take an opportunity to respond to a few readers:

Chacha-ji: Thank you for supporting my skinny jeans campaign. But who do we need to contact in Washington to make this bold plan a reality?

Steverino in Buffalo: Yes – Russell is planning a Labor Day jamboree. Please feel free to contact Russell for more details. (But what’s a jamboree? We will never know.)

LUV_CHUNK: Thank you for your flattering compliments and kind words of encouragement. Yes, it’s true –  everyone here at Kiran and Shaan’s World is nice, handsome and strangely tall.

Hello folks, Shaan here. Kiran and I have finally returned from an all-too-long hiatus from blogging. A hearty thanks to intergalactic guest host extraordinaire Spinachdip, whom we understand is already calling in some favors to find out where Malibu Barbie works out. – Shaan
