# Ha! Ha! Ha! (film)

Ha! Ha! Ha! is a 1934 Fleischer Studio animated short film starring Betty Boop, and featuring Koko the Clown.

## Plot

Max Fleischer draws Betty, then leaves her for the night in the studio at 5:00 pm. Koko escapes from the inkwell and helps himself to a candy bar left behind by Max. He starts to eat some of it. But, he soon gets a toothache. Betty tries to perform some amateur dentistry on Koko, by trying to yank the bad tooth out while dancing. After this fails, she attempts to calm him down but uses too much laughing gas, causing Betty and Koko to laugh hysterically. The laughing gas spreads the room, making a cuckoo clock and a typewriter laugh hysterically. The laughing gas then goes out the window and spreads into town. Both people and inanimate objects begin laughing hysterically, including a mailbox, a parking meter, a bridge, cars, and even gravestones. The short ends when Betty and Koko get back in the inkwell and it begins laughing, before panting.

## Production notes

This is a partial remake of the 1924 Koko animated short, The Cure. It is also Koko's last theatrical appearance. (For more information about Koko, see Koko the Clown).

# Great Day (unfinished film)

Great Day is an unfinished 1930 American pre-Code musical film, which was to star, in alphabetical order, Johnny Mack Brown, Joan Crawford, John Miljan, Anita Page, Marjorie Rambeau and John Charles Thomas.

## Plot

No plot due to the unrelease of the film.

## Cast

* Joan Crawford as Roadhouse Entertainer
* Johnny Mack Brown
* John Miljan
* Anita Page
* Marjorie Rambeau
* John Charles Thomas as Leading Male

## Overview

Great Day began as a Vincent Youmans musical purchased by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer to be tailored to Joan Crawford's talents. The 1929 show had not been a success on Broadway, lasting only twenty-nine performances. But several of its songs — with lyrics by Billy Rose and Edward Eliscu — were memorable, including the title tune, another called "Without a Song" and "More Than You Know". It was the popularity of the music that encouraged MGM to acquire the rights for the film version.
Production started in the fall of 1930, but after around two weeks of shooting, the film was scrapped at considerable cost to the studio — $280,000.
MGM and Crawford mutually agreed to major rewrites to save the film with the plan to resume shooting with the revised script in 1931; it never happened, and Great Day was never released. In 1934, MGM began another attempt to make the film, this time starring Jeanette MacDonald, but this was also abandoned.
# Gorp (film)

Gorp is a 1980 American comedy film starring Michael Lembeck and Dennis Quaid, and featuring early acting work of Rosanna Arquette and Fran Drescher in supporting roles. Directed by Joseph Ruben, with both story and screenplay by Jeffrey Konvitz and A. Martin Zweiback, the film follows in the tradition of the 1978 fraternity comedy National Lampoon's Animal House, and the 1979 summer camp comedy film Meatballs. Gorp was the penultimate film released by American International Pictures, before How to Beat the High Cost of Living two months later.
Set in a Jewish summer camp, Gorp features the kind of physical, sexual, and scatological comedy prevalent in films of this genre, while playing for comedic effect on the class distinctions between the camp's management, the camp counselors, the waiters, and the kitchen staff.

## Cast

* Michael Lembeck as Kavell

# Shen Haobo

Shen Haobo (Chinese: 沈浩波; pinyin: Shěn Hàobō) is a Chinese poet and publisher, born in 1976 in Taixing, Jiangsu province. He graduated from the Chinese department of Beijing Normal University in 1999.
Shen Haobo began publishing and writing poetry in 1996 and had his first official publication in 1998 with "Who was joking on 1990s"(谁在拿90年代开涮) He is identified with the Lower Body Poets and the Post 70s Generation.
Shen Haobo founded publishing company Xiron in 2001, which became one of the largest private-owned publishing companies in China. It buys the rights to books from established publishing houses and republishes for a discounted price in great quantities. Xiron published Chun Sue's "Beijing Doll".

## Debate on modern poems

While the iconic figures of 'Post 80s Generation' are 'Guo Jingming' and 'Han Han', both are commercial popular writers and both became Forbes multi-millionaires and have millions of fans in Chinese youth, in 2006, there was a famous debate between the 'Post 70s Generation' iconic figure, the minor group 'Lower Body' poet Shen Haobo and Han Han, the latter who claimed that 'both modern poets and poems are no longer in need of existence, and the genre of modern poetry is meaningless'(现代诗歌和诗人都没有存在的必要，现代诗这种体裁也是没有意义的). This raised anger from Lower body poets. Shen Haobo wrote in his blog: 'The genuine novelists can never sell more than Han Han's rubbish work. This is the best writers and poets' own choice, and nothing to complain. However, Han Hans would still hate these all.' (真正的小说家们永远卖不过韩寒的文字垃圾。这是优秀的作家和诗人的自我选择，没什么可抱怨的。但是，韩寒们仍然会仇视这一切）Shen haobo said he wouldn't talk about human's sense to a donkey(对一头驴就不用讲人的道理) so there is nothing to talk about. Then he fought back with an impromptu writing poem: 'A Donkey/ is a donkey/ is very donkey donkey/ and if you ask/ why he is so donkey/ it's because/ he is a/ donkey for show/...and it's because/ he is a/ donkey with fans.' (驴/很驴/非常驴.../你问他/为什么这么驴/那是因为/他是一头/有粉丝的驴)
This story may tell the difference between those two generations.

It was a monarchy led by the House of Saud, and a legal predecessor of modern-day Saudi Arabia. This version of the Third Saudi State was created when Abdul Aziz ibn Saud, Emir of Riyadh, declared himself sultan over Nejd and its dependencies. On the 2 December 1922, the Nejd signed an agreement with Kuwait defining their border with each other. The border would be a straight line along the 29th parallel.
