In 1996, a friend asked if I wanted to see Jerry Lewis in Damn Yankees because his wife despised Lewis. Turns out is was his 70th birthday and it was the best live performance I have ever seen. The highlight was a 15 minute, solo vaudeville routine inserted in the second act.

This is a link to a horrid recording of it on YouTube: Lewis as Applegate

This is a link from Lewis' official site, but it requires RealPlayer. http://www.jerrylewiscomedy.com/videoserver.phtml?m=jl_unlimited_tour_56.rm

Don't you just love the concerned look on his face?

Bonus points for using shower reverb!

This is completely unbelievable. I am male. I live alone. A cleaning crew delivers 120 work minutes of cleaning every two weeks. That would be 8 minutes per day. On the high end, stay at home fathers and caretaker children that I know would say that housework takes up 500 minutes per day.

Where is the choice of "Photoshopped"?

Crappy questions that are designed to make political hay.

We can thank Grahm Kerr for white pepper on strawberries. Seriously. Give it a try.

Thank-you. It is nice to be appreciated.

That thoughts are shaped by symbols and the concepts they convey is unquestionable. The "language" of Math, Chemistry and Physics shows this. It would be foolish to argue that other mental processes are not affected in the same way.

On the other hand, it would be equally foolish to say that our thoughts are constrained by language. If that were so, no new words would be created.

They also make very effective fire pits.

I wonder where rats, mice and other rodents are on that chart.

I loved that they put the punch line at the beginning and left the equipment lust for later. As for the technology, this just might be the rocket pack we were promised in the 1960s.

Ze Frank is the greatest narrator on the Internet. From sarcastic to serious, he is always captivating. This one is serious and is the best dance narration I have ever heard.
