What Makes Me Laugh

The season finale of Flight of the Conchords came and went while we were in Australia (Bret and Jemaine are still shocked that we got out alive)  so I realize this post is several weeks out of date, but I feel the need to complete my chronicles of New Zealand tourism posters on the show. [...]
