Hello, I'm back for the long-awaited return of the Friday Mashup. With only 18 days to go before the election, it's time to fire this column up again. So, without further ado:
Lanarino was so kind to send me this picture from what I can only assume is her apartment (I've not visited her once in Columbus in 3 years). It contains a vile homegrown veggie and the man who will be president. Click through to see the picture.

*Note: While I admire his politics and character, I would not put Barack Obama in my mouth either.

Friday "Things I Don't Care For" Mashup: Politics and Result of Botched Volleyball Play Edition
By now, everyone should know that I am supporting Obama for president. So today, I would like to change things up a bit in the mashup and make it about two things I don't care for very much, thank you. One is the movable object that is likely to be destroyed by the unstoppable force known as Obama in November. And the other relates to my volleyball mishap from yesterday.
John McPain (in my hand)
Enjoy your weekend. Go see Dark Knight if you haven't already. It's well worth it.

Friday "Things Maz Likes" Mashup: Politics and Wearing a Funny Cap Edition
Al's note: I'm pinch-hitting* for the Maz as he takes a well deserved break from mashing up Barry with things he likes.
Readers may be familiar with my whining about school and how hard it was. Those of you who checked in on us yesterday also know that chapter is now over, and so I will have to find something new to whine about. I walk on Sunday (can't wait to throw on the gown), and although Barry will not be around to hand me my diploma I'm sure that he will be there in spirit (That's demanded of former U of C professors).
So this mashup celebrates things the Maz Likes and a thing that I will receive. To quote another MBA I can now "spend the rest of my days wondering what the hell am I doing with that degree." Click through to see the picture and mashup.

Friday "Things I Like" Mashup: Politics and Self Edition
This week's mashup celebrates two monumental victories each more important than the next. Obama has captured the hearts of Americans and secured the Democratic Presidential nomination, and I, Mazerino, have beaten Grand Theft Auto 4 (the story portion anyway) to reclaim my social life. Both campaigns were hard-fought and went through rough patches--Reverend Jeremiah Wright for Obama and my messy breakup with Michelle about which I am still too distraught to write. But, in the end our victories were inevitable. So, here's to us (click through to see the mashup and picture):

This is not in any way an altered photograph. Barack really is that tall and I was definitely not pointing at Alcatraz on a recent trip to San Francisco.
And I'd like to officially throw my hat into the ring for the VP position. I'm waiting patiently by the phone, Barry. Give me a call.

Friday "Things I Like" Mashup: Politics and Recreational Summertime Sand Activity
It's Friday, which means its time for another mashup. This week, North Avenue Beach in Chicago officially opened for the summer, and we can start playing volleyball again. Instead of dwelling on our second round playoff exit last year, team Camels and Elephants is looking ahead to the future and will be practicing in full contact mode on Sunday (let us know if you're interested in joining). To kick off the season properly, this week's mashup brings together two of my favorites. Click through to the full post to see!

Apologies to BigChicken, whose space and legs from the original picture, Obama now occupies.

Friday "Things I Like" Mashup: Politics and Maternity Wear Slogan Edition
Sorry for the tardiness on this post, but after work I got sucked into a marathon GTA 4 session and then Michelle and I hit a rough patch after I found out she was lying to me. That's a post of its own, hopefully next week. After that mess, I had a wonderful dinner with my parents at Frankie's in the Bloomingdale's mall downtown. They have pretty good pizza and the bar has Left Handed Milk Stout for fellow beer enthusiasts. Anyway, there is a point to this digression, because after dinner we walked by a maternity store and my sister snapped this week's mashup picture (click the link to see the pic):
Mama for Obama
Clearly, the makers of this t-shirt have Friday "Things Mazerino Likes" Fever as they've done all the work for me this week. Camels and Elephants mania is sweeping the nation one textile maker at a time.
Unfortunately, I don't know any ladies who are expecting (sorry Eileen, it could have been yours). And since Michelle and I hit a rough patch, it doesn't look like I'll be fathering anytime soon.

Friday "Things I Like" Mashup: Politics and Rated M For Mature Video Games Edition
Anyone who's read my last post has to know where this one is going. I'm going to change up the format a bit from previous mashups by having you click through to the post to see this week's version though.
This week, I purchased Grand Theft Auto 4 for PS3, and I've been playing it non-stop. It was also a good week for my favorite politician, Obama, as he picked up some supers and an endorsement from John Edwards. So, to honor our good weeks, I hereby declare this week's mashup to be:
Grand Theft Auto-bama 4
I would have spent much more time preparing this picture and post, but I had to get back to playing the game. Until next time,
--Mazerino

Friday "Things I Like" Mashup: Politics and Maternal Parent Holiday Edition
Just a quickie mashup, likely posted too late for anyone to read it:
As you may well know, this is a very important weekend for mothers everywhere but Momerino in particular. Saturday is her one week anniversary of appearing on Ellen, and of course Sunday is Mother's Day where she'll be receiving an IOU for a very spectacular gift!!! To celebrate my mom, grandma and all the mom's around the world, I give you this week's mashup:
O-momma Day (a.k.a Oba-mother's Day--I couldn't decide)

Friday "Things I Like" Mashup: Politics and Bone-in Chop Edition
Due to vacations and a lack of inspiration, I had to take a short break from one of my favorite recurring features. But after a 3 week hiatus, the Friday mashup is finally back. I know some of you are probably saying, how hard is it to slap Barack Obama's name to something you like and make a stupid picture? The answer is not very hard, but I'm lazy and its not like I'm getting tips. So, without further ado:
Ba-rack O' lam-bama!
I'm sorry--that looks kinda gross. I've probably ruined lamb for you. Maybe I should retire this column.

Friday "Things I Like" Mashup: Politics and Places I'm Going Tomorrow Edition
Tahoe-bama!
Yes, Mazerino fans, I will be out of town learning to ski next week, but fear not. I leave you in the capable hands of Al Waris and Fadilicious (I think). And if they don't float your boat, you can submit your own guest column. I'll have my camera so hopefully bloggable things will happen. Please don't rob me while I'm gone.
By the way, pat yourselves on the back. We've set a new C&E comment record (12 at publish time) in the Great Fadilicious Debate. You're all readers of the week in my book. Keep 'em coming.
