He's the Black Knight!

Give me your money.

The YouTube era

| 4 Comments

Bill Simmons covers many of the important elements. YouTube is one of those awesome Internet phemonomenonaaas that comes along and awesomely revolutionizes everyone's life.

There's definitely a lot of, um... questionable/creepy stuff (then again, it wouldn't be the Internet, would it?). But the treasures outweigh the creepy... especially in the case of Almost Live, the classic Seattle-based comedy sketch show that had brief national exposure on Comedy Central, but spent most of its existence riffing on local issues from 1986-1999 on KING-TV.

My personal favorite: kids show sketch Uncle Fran's Musical Forest, featuring a drunk and angry raccoon puppet who may have been the genesis for Raffles.

"But Uncle Fran, we hate the bitches!"

Happy birthday Kimberly!

I'm trying to convince her that 30 isn't so bad. It's only sort-of working.
