Ladies and Gentlemen....Alex Trebek, Drunk

Because it's a Monday, and because watching and posting this is more fun than making the beds...I give you, Alex Trebek, drunk. I never knew there were such cracks in that cool Jeaopardy exterior. Now we know. Happy Monday.

Alexander Hamilton Hates Aaron Burr

I know it's a little early for your 4th of July present, but since the idgets in my neighborhood think it's time for fireworks already, I might as well let Uncle Sam drop this down your chimney.

Here, my friends, is a drunken history lesson*. Really. Starring Juno's Michael Cera.


*I've become aware that this video isn't always playing as it should. Stupid not-YouTube people. If you can't view it above, go to this link to see it directly:

Now if only they could capture that kind of magic in a bottle for network television, then we'd have something real to consider at Emmy time. I wonder if PBS has heard about these guys. Faboo.

Hey-ey Hockeytown!

Hooray for the 2008 Stanley Cup Champions - the Detroit Red Wings!

My hometown boys did a phenomenal job this season (just as long as I promised to not watch any of the games....it turns out I'm a jinx). They clinched their Stanley Cup win on Wednesday night in a match against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

But that's not the real story, here. At least, it's not the real funny story here.

You see, my Wings love to par-tay. More than once in the past couple days, I've seen them take the microphones away from local reporters interviewing them, just so they could drunkenly start slurring sweet nothings to a chuckling tv audience.

And that's all before they headed off to celebrate at Cheli's Chili in downtown Detroit - a local restaurant/bar owned by Red Wings defenseman Chris Chelios. Once at the restaurant, my wonderfully drunk hockey heroes ascended to the roof of the restaurant - and in the act of events still unexplained - they accidentally dropped the Stanley Cup off of the roof of the building. Way to go, guys!

Apparently the cup handler had to be called in for emergency repairs to a sizable dent in the side of the cup. Worry not, though; the cup has been repaired and is (almost) good as new.

I don't think I could be any prouder of those guys if I tried.
