Blow away those blues

A couple of songs from my favourite New Zealand all-stars - the Conchords - as featured on HBO.

Take a look at this fantastic use of an aeroplane toilet by very accompllished and established artist Nina Katchadourian.

She made the spoof music video below in which she also stars.

Check out this great surfing video from Mike Newman at Ocean Image in Penzance.  I used to go down to Praa - on a body board.  Fantastic northerly blowing offshore.  It's an ill-wind and all that.  Wait for the guy who can't work out if the wave is going to break on him, tries to paddle into it, and get turned over.  How many times have I done that.

Seinfeld has been a mainstay of laughs for me. My favourite blooper with the inimitable figure of George's father (Jerry Stiller, father on Ben Stiller).  See his Wikipedia site for links to the book about Festivus and the CBS series The King of Queens, which I haven't seen.

Dennis Leary's 1992 stand-up gig No Cure for Cancer

It's scabrous and outrageous but if you like that sort of thing there are some great quotes here.
