beckanon, which was really good. A sweet movie that just worked. I'm not going to tell you anything about it because it's best to just go see it without any knowledge, it's funnier that way.
Anyway, that got us talking about Steve Carell, and Daily Show, andbeckanon told me she'd never seen an "Even Stephen" bit from the Daily Show. YouTube to the rescue!!!! We spent a good hour+ watching hilarious clips of Stephen and Steve before they became the comedy stars they are today. So, for your viewing pleasure -
Stephen Colbert outtake from 'Strangers with Candy'(if you only watch one, let it be this one)
Even Stevphen - The Existence of God
Even Stevphen - War in Iraq
Even Stevphen - U.S. involvement in the Middle East
Even Stevphen - Islam vs. Christianity
This Week in God v1
The Week in God (11-12-2003)
This Week in God (2004-02-12)
Oh there's so much...so many hours of funny....
Oh, and then there was this, whichbeckanon found for us - Colbert interviewing Representative Eleanor Holmes Norton from DC
And she had never seen the "more cowbell" sketch from SNL.

Date: 2006-08-14 03:53 am (UTC)Oh Stevphens.. how I do love thee..
re: bad things on planes, I guess this was inevitable.. in fact, I'm surprised there's just this one. Personally, I bet you could come up with something better: http://craphound.com/images/liquids-on-a-plane.jpg
On the way home today I stopped by the used CD place we didn't get to yesterday. I ended up getting the first Crash Test Dummies CD- one of those things I felt like I should buy solely because I used to listen to it all the time in tape form years ago. Anyway, I mention this because I had forgotten about "Superman's Song" and wondered if you had heard it, being that you're all about the man of steel these days.
mmm.. that's it for now. wait, what's that song in my head.. the king of glor.. d'oh! Only thing worse than not being able to get the song out of my head is that it's accompanied by the image of the little dance AD did at the airport..

Who is the king of glory; how shall we call him?
He is Emmanuel, the promised of ages!

Date: 2006-08-18 03:21 am (UTC)The first CTD CD was lots of fun, but then some evil producer got ahold of them, decided that their two biggest selling points were their quirky lyrics and the singer's uber-low voice, then turned their music from quirky to ponderously pretentious and made the singer sound like, as Blender.com puts it, "the jerk at the office who can burp the alphabet". And they've sucked ever since, or at least I assume they have, since I gave up on them.
But then what does Blender.com know? I mean, look who ended up at number 13 on the list of "The 25 Biggest Wusses.. Ever!" I mean, really..
