 NOW: Not so Mary, Dec 12 - 18, 2002
Prankster knows a thing or two about these things, since she herself rocks quite a bit and is nothing short of truly original.
Mary Prankster is suddenly a solo artist after being ditched by her bandmates.
Mary Prankster with the Hollers at Rancho Relaxo (300 College), Friday (December 13).

 Textual Intercourse: Mary Prankster - reported by formen.ign.com
Mary Prankster, who has released two albums (the latest of which is 1999's Roulette Girl), is not what you'd expect out of a female musician in the year 2001.
Mary: Yeah, we pride ourselves on original music and aptitude with paraphernalia.
Mary: It's funny, I was talking to my friend Stacey from Squatweiler, and they were all excited that a Republican was back in the White House because every time there's this air of conservative oppression in the country, punks bands do really well.

 Vandals, the - Satan Stole My Teddybear
One of the original prankster/humor oriented bands, the Vandals were able to gleen maybe an short EP's worth of funny material before tapping out, as this pairing of their first two releases shows.
Play Really Bad Original Country Tunes - 1999
And since When In Rome Do as the Vandals is placed first on the CD, though released later, you can easily see how far the band fell after their debut - and hilarious - Peace Thru Vandalism.

 Strange But True: Cincinnati.Com's Strange News - Freetime
Hospital prankster slips a cadaver--presumably "sleeping"--into the MRI unit for imaging of the brain or torso.
It's been used to trace ancestries, solve crimes, assess organ donor-recipient compatibility, optimize mate selection for endangered species, settle patent cases involving genetically engineered organisms, identify the origin of hides or tusks in suspected poachings, and even to answer historical riddles such as whatever happened to the son of Marie-Antoinette following her beheading.
2000 years ago early travelers noted on long journeys north or south that the old familiar stars near the northern or southern horizon each night couldn't be seen.

 Revelations from Joseph Goebbels' Diary
It was the prankster "Putzi" Hanfstaengl, saying: "The Reichstag's on fire." Goebbels remembered that he'd been had twice by Hanfstaengl already that week, and he thought this was another prank, so he just put the phone down.
When I visited the Hoover Institution library in Stanford, California, to see the portion of the original Goebbels diary that they have there, this was the first page I asked to see.
First of all there was the original typed Goebbels diary for parts of the years 1942 and 1943, which is now in the Hoover Institution library in Stanford, California.

 Star Trek Soundtracks: Symphonic Star Trek
I have written elsewhere that what I believe has contributed to the longevity of Star Trek is, as described by the omnipotent prankster "Q," a fascination with the "unknown possibilities of existence." Courage's unaccompanied horn theme reappears throughout both episodes and movies.
The haunting theme composed by Alexander Courage for the original pilot of the Star Trek series (later aired as the two-part Hugo-award-winning episode The Menagerie) will always be associated in the minds of Star Trek fans.
Courage's floating melody at the beginning of each episode of the original series and Goldsmith's driving score in Star Trek: The Motion Picture are fine examples.

 Amazon.com: Black Scorpion II: Aftershock: DVD
Plot Synopsis: Darcy is back on the force, but still fights on as the Black Scorpion because "it's in her nature." This time, she fights Gangster Prankster; and a new villian emerges when the Mayor tries to protect his federal earthquake relief money: Aftershock.
Severance played the Scorpion in the original Black Scorpion movie, and in this sequel, and Lintel took over for the tv show.
The film opens with Darcy tracking down the Gangster Prankster (sort of a cross between the Joker and Two-Face) and then busting him as Black Scorpion.

 07/11/01: Re: Offspring
I mean look at the garbage they have released from their last two albums: aside from The Kids Arent Alright, which was pretty good, we have Pretty Fly, Why Don't You Get A Job, Shes Got Issues, Original Prankster, Want You Bad....I mean gimme a break, thats just pop bullshit.
But the band has gone seriously downhill...it seems now that they are less concerned about writing songs that are GOOD than they are about writing songs that will get lots of play time on TRL.
The Offspring have become the bitches of MTV.

That quest has culminated in the comic-bookish "Jew-funk" (as it has been called) of Gonzales's first full-length album, Gonzales Uber Alles, the follow-up to his equally ironically titled debut EP Original Prankster.
This site may be viewed in any browser or Internet device, but looks best in one that complies with web standards.

 Amazon.co.uk: DVD: Man With A Movie Camera [1929]
The subject, the life of a city from dawn to dusk, was not original even for 1928, but its treatment was--the cameraman as voyeur, social commentator and prankster, exploiting every trick permissible with the technology of the day (slow motion, dissolves, split screens, freeze frames, stop motion animation, etc).
As she blinks her weary eyes, the shutters of her window mimic her viewpoint, and the iris of the camera spins open.
This has got to be the definitive DVD version of Vertov's Man With a Movie Camera.

 Choler Magazine Album Review: NON -- Receive The Flame
Boyd, a notorious prankster and misanthrope, would probably agree with that assessment, noting, of course, that in comparison to his Ragnarok Rune album, which featured three tracks, each consisting solely of a different tone, Receive the Flame is positively maximalist.
He pares back the original songs to one or two bars of music (removing what he labels "the inessential" elements of the tunes), then loops them for a solid two to three minutes.
Songs for a ritual sacrifice or the conjuring of demons, maybe (Boyd is a former member of the Council of Nine, the Church of Satan's governing body, and an intimate of the church's late founder, Anton LaVey), but songs nonetheless.

 Bastard pop - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The song became so popular that it was released with re-recorded vocals by Sugababes (under the title "Freak Like Me"), though their version was, by design, almost indistinguishable from the "original".
The JAMs morphed into The KLF in 1988 and continued to pursue the same art-prankster agenda, most notably with their number 1 hit (under the name The Timelords), "Doctorin' The Tardis".
Bastard pop is a musical genre which, in its purest form, consists of the combination (usually by digital means) of the music from one song with the a cappella from another.

 Amazon.com: Americana [ECD]: Music
Americana is known for Pretty Fly, Smash is known for Come Out And Play, Ixnay for All I Want and Gone Away, Conspiracy for Original Prankster and Want You Bad, Splinter for Hit That, Ignition for Kick Him When He's Down, and The self-titled for Beheaded.
The novelty single "Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)" matches infectious riffing and shout-along vocals with fly-girl chants of "Give it to me, baby" and lyrics about wannabe scenesters; and a storming punk-rock version of Morris Albert's "Feelings" sees the band hitting a new level of, er, (in)sensitivity.
'Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)' is a long-awaited mockery of the hip-hop culture, 'Walla Walla' deals with crime and the consequences and 'Americana' shows us that The American Dream isn't all it's cracked up to be.

On Bilious Paths – the fifth album by µ-Ziq, otherwise known as Michael Paradinas – the merry prankster of techno throws ambient house, ragga jungle, old-school hardcore, and acid techno together, distilling the genres into a series of microsamples and synth lines that act as nostalgic cues of an era past.
Original acid house music was a dark, sweaty beast, and µ-Ziq preserves some of its ghastlier tones on tracks like "Siege of Antioch" and "Grape Nut Beats (Pt.1)."
Bilious Paths is far from straightforward dance music.

 liveDaily: Offspring Plan To Pre-Release Album For Free Via Website
The Offspring plan to offer free downloads of their new single "Original Prankster" beginning Sept. 29, and ultimately plan to make the entire album "Conspiracy of One" available for free at the band's official website well before its Nov. 14 release.
The Offspring experimented with free downloads for their last album, "Americana." In that instance, the band offered an MP3 of the single "Pretty Fly (For A White Guy)," and according to Wired magazine, that song was downloaded 22 million times in 10 weeks, with sales of the album topping 10 million albums.
Additionally, each fan that downloads the album will qualify for a $1,000,000 gift from the band, with the winner to be announced on MTV the day of the album's release.

The band's announcement on its Web site (www.offspring.com) said the first single, "Original Prankster," will be available Sept. 29.
Against the wishes of its record label, multiplatinum rock band The Offspring will release songs from its new CD for free on the Internet a month before the album goes on sale in stores.
The promotional campaign also includes a prize of $1 million, which the band said would not come from sponsors or the record company.

 CNN.com - Punk band Offspring to give away album on Web - September 15, 2000
The whole album will be posted by late October, while "Original Prankster," a single from the new CD, will be available for downloading next Friday, when Offspring launches a contest giving fans a chance to win $1 million by downloading the single and registering their e-mail address with the band.
In a statement, Sony said, "while the band has come up with a million-dollar idea for their fans and we're excited about the contest, we have very real concerns when it comes to unsecured downloading of music and piracy on the Internet.
Sony Corp.'s Sony Music, which distributes Offspring and is one of the five big labels suing Napster, told the band to cancel the giveaway but the band has refused, industry sources said.

It has the writing of a prankster, the artwork of a craftsman, and the soul of an original.
"Bruno the Bandit" is one of the most consistently engaging and entertaining comic strips I have read on the internet, and considering what I see in the papers lately, it may be one of the best comics out there today.
For any who might not know of it yet, "Bruno the Bandit" is the story of a muscle-bound ne'er do well in a mixed-up fantasy world where wizards, elves, barbarians and incredible monsters interact with daytime TV talk shows, promotional book deals, political scandals and personal computers.

Americana is known for Pretty Fly, Smash is known for Come Out And Play, Ixnay for All I Want and Gone Away, Conspiracy for Original Prankster and Want You Bad, Splinter for Hit That, Ignition for Kick Him When He's Down, and The self-titled for Beheaded.
Admittedly, a lot of the tracks are far less raucous than their previous work, but if people were to look past this, they'd find that the lyrics are just as intelligent and witty as ever.
Whatever the case, the band's fourth record, Americana, is its most lively offering to date, replacing angst and rage with energy and sarcasm.

 The Art of Deejaying Without Deejaying
Prior to this, Ken Kesey, the chief Prankster had famously taken his Magic Bus across the States, from West Coast to East Coast, meeting up with Leary’s more sedate group at Millbrook, Leary’s original NYC drop-out centre.
LSD and dancing had first come together via the Merry Pranksters and their legendary ‘Acid Tests’ in the mid-60’s, a full-on off-your-face freaked-out festival of sound and light, the prototype Rave, over 20 years before the British Acid House explosion, where the Grateful Dead cut their teeth and psychedelic lightshows were born.
The name, like Leary’s ‘League For Spiritual Discovery’ and Lennon’s ‘Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds’, included the initials LSD (although Lennon insists that, in his case, this was a complete coincidence, resulting from a drawing his son Julian had brought home from school).

The new Internet-only concert series is part of Clear Channel's vision to embrace the Internet by creating original content to enhance its local station brands.
"Targeting 13- to 34-year-olds, the company said users will be able to view three-minute clips of popular cartoon character SpongeBob Squarepants and other Viacom content such as "Dirty Sanchez," a reality show about a group of prankster boys." I can't believe a kids show is named Dirty Sanchez...that's kind of sick.
Sister network Nickelodeon recently debuted the new series Catscratch on its broadband property, but the move sparked the ire of some cable operators, who complained about the potential negative effects the practice might have on the perceived value of cable properties among consumers.

Dianne Keaton is a well known giggler and on set prankster.
In the emotional shouting scene, in which she tells Michael she had an abortion, not a miscarriage, both actors were completely inconsolable with mirth for most of the shoot as they kept hitting each other over the head with balloon animals.
