Here’s the un-doctored, full version of Jon Stewart’s tete-a-tete with Bill O’Reilly. Great stuff, much of which never actually aired.

Last week, an upstart, unknown, non-publicly traded corporation decided to forego all of that pulling-congressional-strings-behind-closed-doors business and take the reins themselves. And so, Murray Hill Incorporated has filed to run as a Rebublican candidate in Maryland’s eigth Congressional District.

I, for one, would like to welcome our new Corporate Overlords and offer them any help my flawed human faculties can offer.

Last night I went out to LA’s Wiltern theater to witness a once in a blue moon assortment of talent assembled by Jack Black and co. to raise money for Haiti earthquake survivors.

I recorded some fantastically washed-out grainy video in an attempt to share this experience with you. Not only do the following clips give you a sense of the performances, they also recreate the crowd’s futile attempts to see anything amidst a standing room only mob. In any case, enjoy the festivities:

A truly unexpected performance here from the WWF’s Iron Sheik.

Here’s the Shins’ James Mercer covering Neil Young’s Don’t Let it Bring You Down…

Genius comedian Patton Oswalt regaled the crowd with his angry musings before an Aimee Mann set.

He then brought the house down with his Yoshinoya Beef Bowl routine.

Here’s Ben Stiller vamping on stage with a mysterious figure referring to himself as ‘Fabreeze Fabreeze.’

A vindictive Stiller returned during Tenacious D’s closing act with a giant drum set…

All in all, a very compelling night of entertainment.

Okay, so little babies like to take their socks off….and that is just so annoying because who wants a sock-less baby? That’s about as bad as a baseball player without a codpiece.  So we gotta do something about that–and now we can, thanks, again, to our friends at One Step Ahead (those friends who are always…one step ahead of us…).

Today is the third anniversary of the events of 1-31. Given this country’s continuing reactions to awkward underwear incendiaries, and enthusiasm for perpetual war, I think it’s as relevant as ever.

I had a recent conversation with my mom that made me think of a modern day “who’s on first” scenario.

Stacey: Hey Tracy! How was your weekend?

Tracy: Hey girl! It was good. I saw a movie Saturday night.

Stacey: Awesome! What did you see?

This is the one reference I’ll allow to the gadgetary “phenomenon” that is little more than a large print Iphone.

For more on why Mac Users are impotent tech fetishists and unwitting, unpaid salesman for the company, see TMR #16 and #35. No offense intended, of course 🙂
