Rich and Famous

You may remember that last year around this time, Stephen Colbert caused something of a ruckus with his performance at the White House Correspondents Dinner. I meant to alert you but forgot that this year's was this evening, with Rich Little performing what everyone expected (correctly, it would seem) would be less controversial material.

I haven't watched it yet. I have my TiVo set up to record a rebroadcast in a few hours on C-Span. You can find the schedule and the video can also be watched online at the C-Span website, which doesn't work for me insofar as video clips are concerned but may for you. I imagine the clip will show up on YouTube or Google Video in the next day or so. If this report is correct though, you may not want to take the time to watch. Bush, they say, made no attempt at humor, apparently out of respect for the Virginia Tech shootings. Rich Little, they say, didn't do so well. I'll let you know if I disagree.
