Somewhat Grudgingly

Early readers of Murphblog may remember I was once in a cranky mood. (Okay, it's happened twice.) Some time ago, back when I had two readers instead of nine, I posted this rather strong opinion on bloggers who don't write, but, I guess in the interest of blogging about something, just throw up a Youtube video and call it good. My opinion of this has not changed, but sometimes, in order to please the masses (you), one has to release oneself from the bonds of one's own high-minded standards.

Because, dude, if you haven't seen Stephen Colbert and Steve Martin read Danielle Steel, you need to. (And chances are you have already seen it because I'm about two years behind on all things Youtube and even further behind on all things Comedy Central.) The clip's a little longish, but it's Steve Martin, so quit yer complainin'.


(You can skip along to about 3:40 to see the Danielle Steel stuff.)

OK...since you're behind on YouTube, have you seen the one with Beyonce and Justin Timberlake? No time to find it for you, but if you've got time, it's worth your while. Thanks for this one with Steve!

I'm sure my wife (your sister-in-law) will very much enjoy this clip when she views it. She is, after all, the world's biggest 29 year old Steve Martin fan. Wait... that didn't come out the way I wanted it too....
