The Story of the Story of the Story of Everest…
One of my favorite sketches ever made… This is from season 4 of Mr. Show, and what a sketch…
Fuck American Idol, Stairway to Stardom has real talent!
Stairway to Stardom was some kind of public access show in the 70s and 80s that has less rigorous standards than Star Search, Showtime at The Apollo, or any talent show on television. Youtube has many of their greatest hits. Here are some of my favorites. Go below the fold for more…
Conan the’Brien
A great clip from last night’s Conan…
Badass Indian Music Video…
Just David Lee Roth
Not sure of the source on this one. It’s a vocal-only copy of Runnin’ With The Devil by Van Halen, and it’s fucking hilarious. By the crescendo near the end, i’m usually rolling around on the ground laughing. And what’s with the fun-house whistle? Enjoy.

Christmas-topher Hitchens
Hitchens is his usual entertaining self during this interview about the holiday season, featured on The Onion AV Club’s website:

Lots of great moments in this conversation, but here’s my favorite:
I don’t have someone permanently telling me, you know, that it’s the season to be jolly. And I don’t have to hear music that really isn’t music at all, like “Jingle Bell Rock,” blasted as if one lived in a state that allowed no alternative. Yes, actually, there are constant reminders of the Dear Leader and the Great Leader, all the fucking time. Plus, another thing I don’t like: celebrations of virginity. If asked my opinion about virginity, I would say, “I’m opposed to it.” I don’t think it deserves to be celebrated, at any rate. Or at least, if I’m not opposed, I’m very highly skeptical and critical of it.
