And I’m amused that this cat who resembles him has managed to learn how to do it:

I think the only thing missing from this video is the Benny Hill theme music.

Courtesy of the Best Week Ever blog and a disturbingly large number of people I know from my days at The Ellen DeGeneres Show who are now working over at at Bonnie Hunt:

More updates when I’m not flat-out exhausted, probably sometime around Thanksgiving.

I’d like to preface this by stating that the video I’m linking to was shot when I got home four days into a six day week, when I’d already worked well over 50 hours. This means two things:

1. I don’t look too spectacular in this. My hair in particular is starting to go for its evening frizz-out, and generally the black circles under my eyes aren’t quite that pronounced until the end of the day on Friday.

2. My brain was complete mush when I recorded it, so I couldn’t exactly make it stop when I wanted it to, and I’m also rambling a wee bit.

And now the link, which will open a 5MB, 40 second video in a new window (I need to figure out how to convert to flash without getting a YouTube account): The Network is encouraging me to waste enormous amounts of time.

Oh, and this is the toy I got. It’s pretty damn awesome and relatively idiot-proof. However, it’s not really sleep-deprivation proof, as you can see from the video.

The Daily Show’s research team truly outdid themselves last night, digging up some awesome double-talk about the Palin nomination. Take it away, kids:

While you are barbecuing various items and drinking yourself silly, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (and whoever cut the CPSC’s video to the soundtrack) would like to remind you to use care with your fireworks this year:

Being friends with mostly theater geeks in High School, I rather enjoyed this (particularly the last line about the location of the Technical awards):

This probably wasn’t the most dignified way for the Caps to wind up tying their playoff game last night:

Note the guy that falls over: He took a direct hit to the family jewels with the puck, and now the poor bastard might wind up minus one of them.

Yow. Even being a Caps fan, I’m not sure that play shouldn’t have been blown dead before Mike Green scored. I think it happened too fast for the refs to realize what had happened, but still, sucks for the Flyers.

Thanks(?) to Deadspin for the tip.

Via Defamer, the perfect one-word [over and over again] summation of being a Lost fan:

I love people with the kind of free time that allows them to put something like this together.

I have no Hamentashen on hand, so instead, enjoy “Jewno”:

I already knew J.K. Simmons (the dad) was awesome, but the fact that he actually appeared in this raises my opinion of him even higher.
