    I know.

    I know that you’re an ocean
    After the storm has come to stay.
    I know that you’re the sun
    After the sun has gone away.


    I know that you’re the worst thing in all of the world for me.

    Fred Armisen is: Jens Hannemann

    If you've even been inside a Guitar Center's percussion department, right above the bin of twelve-dollar-fruit-shaped plastic "shakers" on the checkout counter, you've probably noticed a twelve-inch TV/VCR combo playing a looping sample of some video featuring a foreigner clad in tight black nylon who is rambling through a thick accent about sticking techniques. And surely, said video features the latest in public access Video Toaster effects, like "mosaic" and stuttery-picture-in-picture. Most music instructional tapes are like this; caught in a weird 80's production value time-warp, and in desperate need of subtitling. Alas, one of my favorite SNL personalities (and comedians in general) had apparently taken notice in 2007, and now I'm late to the party, but a happy arrival nonetheless:

    Ladies and gentlemen, Fred Armisen presents: Complicated Drumming Technique.

    Someone told me about this video a while back, and for whatever reason I completely spaced on looking it up. It looks absolutely BRILLIANT and I dream that one day (mayhaps this week) I may own a copy on DVD. One day...

    That's A Wrap!

    That's a wrap. I need a sham-wow.

    Give it a week. We WILL deliver the goods. :)

    Q&A With Munn and Me!

    Rather than make it to dinner on time tonight, Olivia decided to put me to work making content for her awesome blog. While it felt a little like slave labor, I suppose the end-result is remotely watchable. Mostly thanks to the mustache application that Hardwick turned me onto, and Olivia's bra-shrapnel scattered everywhere like a Trashy-lingerie-IED exploded in her dressing room. Enjoy!

    Terms of Service Watchdog Organization?

    Terms of service, service?Ramble-and-a-half about a potential 3rd party service/watchdog group that reviews TOS agreements.

    Does this exist? Should this exist?

    I just saved you five minutes by typing those questions out.

    That's why I suck at the internet.

    But indulge me, would you?

    They. Make. TRACTORS!

    I don't remember making this. I mean, I do now, having just watched it on YouTube; but I certainly didn't recall doing or saying anything in this video until I went on a net-quest to find out why people were emailing me and saying "They make tractors!"

    The "not-remembering" thing is becoming more prevalent though. Forgetting sketches, improvised promos like this one, bits on Stickcam during commerical breaks, sometimes entire shows... I can't help but wonder if it's the side effect of producing too much content on a daily basis. I can only assume it is, as there's no time to really catalogue, store and sift through the mountain of media Attack of the Show churns out on a regular basis; the moment something is in the can, you already need to begin work on the next piece of content.

    It's either that, or the Yaz.

    One of the two.

    (Side Note: In the past few days, I've received a handful of requests for "They make tractors" t-shirts. I'm far too lazy to dust off my Cafe Press account, but if you happen to make one, please let me know! I'd gladly rock it.)
