is that you can find a million wonderful tidbits about things that make you happy (I know, I know, you can also find things that will utterly depress you but let's not talk about that).

And this one...Colbert giving the smackdown to Cookie Monster, who gave in to peer pressure and is now touting healthy food, oh sigh.
oh wait, we were...at this Jens Lekman show. In fact in watching this Joe realized that we were standing next to the guy filming. You can hear us laughing, my screaming and I can even pick out places where you can hear me singing along.
He's telling the story about the song, which is about a time when he went to Berlin to visit his lesbian friend who had lied to her father about him being her fiance--and the embarrassing dinner that ensues.

Oh yeah, TMBG, "I am Impressed!" One of the best videos I've seen in ages. And with two of my favorite subjects! Robots! Romans! Wooohooo!
If you haven't seen this video yet, you must check it out. Courtesy of my long-lost, newly found college friend, Allie (yay for Facebook!).
and I really love Colbert...
This is really messed up...and funny! Dang that turtle is fast! And determined!
I used to know someone who played ping-pong and would probably love this movie! Oh, Christopher Walken, I bow at your feet!
for your viewing pleasure--hopefully this will help counteract the upcoming grey and dreary weekend:
