A Fish Called Goofy

In my previous blog of November 18th, entitled, "Tortured By The Truth (or The Goofy Misconduct of Senator McCain)", I was primarily presenting an open letter to Jon Stewart. Therefore, my experience led me to sorta kinda expect that some form of acknowledgment might be discernible the following night. This acknowledgment could in fact be found the following night, when Stephen Colbert (Colbert's show being the "companion show" to Stewart's) appeared on Letterman:


As I have been something of an influence on Stewart's show, so have I been something of an influence on Colbert's. My 12.2.08 blog describes my very significant influence on his Christmas Special with Elvis Costello; my 1.30.09 blog contains a videoclip detailing my influence regarding Colbert's interview of Paul McCartney; my "Mall Man, The Trailer" video, posted on YouTube August 2006, was the inspiration behind that painting he had of three Stephen Colberts, one behind the other (it started two months later, with two Colberts in October 2006, which became three in October 2007).

So why not take this opportunity to post here my submission when Colbert had his green screen contest in August 2006:



As another footnote to a footnote to a footnote to a footnote (give or take a footnote) regarding McCain and Palin (see my previous blog of 11.18.09), I consider of relevance the fact that I was a significant influence on the Michael Palin movie, "A Fish Called Wanda," including the origin of the title. No time to explain now, must start my Thanksgiving vacation immediately, gotta run, Happy Thanksgiving!


Sit Back And Be Counted
For those who want their viewing of it to be counted, I have posted on YouTube the Weekly Monk/Steinhoff Videoclip, 11.13.09 (the same one that appears in my 11.15.09 blog), under the name, "Monk's Advanced Juggling Technique".
