Starcraft Stand-Up Comedy

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx4sOAt2EPM] In a premium blend of geek and joke, this Korean comic's stand-up material consists entirely of  doing impressions of various characters from the popular (or in the case of Korea, massive and insanely popular) computer game Starcraft. Yes, Starcraft is so huge in Korea that it can get you wild applause from an adoring audience and get you laid.

SNL Digital Short Spoof

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9J4RhJYLAk0] This spoof of Adam Sandberg and his digital shorts on SNL is pretty spot on. Adam should hire these guys so they can collaborate on a new digital short about spoofing a spoof of Adam Sandberg spoofing a spoof of a spoof of a digital short.

John Stewart Interviews George Carlin

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzmD9GEpdTw] I really enjoyed this interview from days of old of a young non-grey hair Jon Stewart talking with George Carlin. Does anyone tell a better story than George Carlin? I submit that no one can. I bet George woulda had something really good and hilariously insightful to say about 2009.

McCain's Phone Call to Sarah Palin

Admittedly his voice sounds a lot like...Bush imitating McCain's voice, but this "recorded" phone conversation of McCain's one and only phone conversation with Sarah Palin to offer her the vice presidency still cracked me up. I doubt the spirit of this whole thing isn't too far from the truth: McCain does have that infamous temper, which seems to be a personality trait of Vietnam vets, such as my father. I'd be gruff and easily irritable too if my helicopter was shot down and people were shooting at me, like MRod Senior.

NEW SHOW: NO HEROICS!

I can't wait to watch this new UK sitcom No Heroics centered around the various city superheroes who hang out in a bar. I'm stoked about the casting of Patrick Baladi ("Neil" from BBC's The Office ) as the resident jackass superhero. And also, the guy who can look 60 seconds into the future has a hysterical super power. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3zpMTKvvgk]
