A noble heart embiggens the smallest man

As do giant purple undies.

This basically looks like it rules. Big Man Japan, aka Dai-Nipponjin. Embiggen here.

We never said that

Watched the last Late Night with Conan O'Brien earlier tonight, and while I had worries about Consey dialing it back for the new Tonight Show gig, he ended the finale by assuring us this would not be the case. A strong way to move on. Stay strong.

I have less confidence in what Late Night with Jimmy Fallon will bring to the table, and less reason to find out with Conan over at 12:35. But in the spirit of not being negative, I'll keep an open mind. The below, at least, was funny, though mainly due to the Lonely Island dudes.

This blog saw its 5,000th view today, which makes me feel like 5,000 Belarussian bucks. Not sure if that's good or bad.

Tokyo! be lookin' good

Tokyo!, with segments by directors Joon-ho Bong, Leos Carax and, fresh off last week's excellent Flight of the Conchords episode, Michel Gondry. This looks really cool. See it embiggened and in HD here.

According to the YouTube posters, the song is "Be Good" by Tokyo Police Club. I've never listened to them, but I may have to.

Heeeyheeeeyyyyyaaah!

The Internet is always good for some random bits of genius. A recent one you might have seen, or heard, was David Lee Roth's isolated vocal track from Van Halen's classic "Runnin' with the Devil." It might have originated here.

Without the music, it sounds less classic, more hilarious and bizarre. Did he actually write those, uh, sounds?

Anyway, while downing a reported 17 beers with Myers the other week, he clued me to this soundboard of Diamond Dave's vocals from Runnin'. Fun on its own, sure, but it's also very amusing to employ while listening to other music. Just about everything is improved by a little DLR. Enjoy.

Oh, and for more soundboard fun of the Christian Bale variety, see here.
