Subject: BS: You Tube Gems From: gnu Date: 13 Dec 10 - 02:00 PM Every now and then, you find one. Often by "mistake". I don't mean one you can easily search like funny cats or fancy cars or whatever. I would like people to post there finds with a brief desciption so readers can filter them. I'll start... 1951. Larry Griswold. Comic acrobat here. Thanks Beer... loved it! |

Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Donuel Date: 14 Dec 10 - 11:34 AM Putin makes we wonder how Stalin or Hitler may have performed a tune , with their ounce of talent, if they really tried to sell it to the crowd. |

Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: gnu Date: 14 Dec 10 - 07:23 PM Ed, Beer... that's the stuff! |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Beer Date: 14 Dec 10 - 07:32 PM Smokey, thanks for a great laugh. I asked the following on another thread but got no luck, maybe you missed it. Did you ever see the skit that W.C. puts on trying to get through a bard wire fence? |

Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: bobad Date: 24 Dec 10 - 08:28 AM Jimmy Fallon does a spot on take off on Neil Young and is joined by Bruce Springsteen, decked out as a 1970s era Bruce Springsteen, performing a silly little ditty penned by Willow Smith, the ten year old daughter of Will Smith, called Whip My Hair - great fun. |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: gnu Date: 24 Dec 10 - 08:46 AM When Fallon first started I wondered how he got the job. Must have been nerves because if he give's up some of the childish bits he does, especially the audience and guest "contests" and sucking up to guests, he'll be king of latenight in NA. |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: GUEST,jeff Date: 25 Dec 10 - 01:44 AM Go to youtube and put danny macaskill into the site search. Click on the first video. |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: DMcG Date: 25 Dec 10 - 05:55 PM I wondered whether Larry Griswald from the original post might have 'burnt up' an act in one television broadcast that he had spent years perfecting and could have toured with for years. Fortunately, Wikipedia shows that he managed to keep going for a couple of decades afterwards. |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Ed T Date: 25 Dec 10 - 07:29 PM Crude as she is, I always enjoyed Joan Rivers. This interview, to me was a classic. Who else could have gotten through it? Joan Rivers |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Beer Date: 25 Dec 10 - 09:30 PM Ed, Joan sure acted stoned to me. Great clip and yes she pulled it off. ad |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: eddie1 Date: 26 Dec 10 - 05:29 AM This is a variation on the idea of playing by ear! Piano Brothers Eddie |

Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Ed T Date: 26 Dec 10 - 08:40 AM I enjoyed this Ali G interview (well, kinda an interview):) Ali G |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Ed T Date: 26 Dec 10 - 08:49 AM Tom Green could be funny, gross, or just weird. I found his man on the street interviews funny. This one, especially. Tom Green, on the street |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Ed T Date: 26 Dec 10 - 09:49 AM How to turn an interview around: Dick Cavett |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Ed T Date: 26 Dec 10 - 10:02 AM If you are interested in the entire interview (it is interesting), check it out on You Tube from the top. |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: gnu Date: 26 Dec 10 - 11:38 AM The page I got (thanks Ed) has the segments at the bottom. You can scroll through them. |

Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: gnu Date: 27 Dec 10 - 03:15 PM Just watched the entire interview with Orson Welles... again, THANKS Ed. That was excellent. |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: GUEST,jeff Date: 27 Dec 10 - 05:04 PM Thanks for the Ali G interview. I haven't laughed that hard in months. Posh seems much more vulnerable and sweet than one would think from her public image. Of course, Ali's ruthless and gave the both of them NO wiggle room. He could read the Want Ads and still be funny. |

Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Desert Dancer Date: 28 Dec 10 - 10:06 PM Open Mike, the MacAskill bike video is the one I was looking for (and couldn't find again) when I read the first post on this thread -- amazing. VT -- what gnu said! ~ Becky in Tucson |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: VirginiaTam Date: 30 Dec 10 - 06:21 AM I made that little movie a month or so ago and Max posted it on his facebook, so I guess he is not offended by it. It is simple and fun to make movies with this site (thank Will Fly). http://www.xtranormal.com/index Just select your characters, add in dialogue. You can copy and past stuff into the dialogue boxes. Would be great to make a get well movie for old Spaw. |

Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: Ebbie Date: 08 Jan 11 - 03:29 PM This is a fun thread - and I haven't yet listened to all of them. I got this one by email. Carl Hoffman, a Fairbanksan, wrote it and his sister in law covered it. "Father of Alaskan Bluegrass" |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: gnu Date: 08 Jan 11 - 04:43 PM That's EXACTLY what I started the thread for Ebbie. One can You Tube for cute kittens but if you don't know about that guy how would you find him? Of course, if anyone finds the cutest kitten in the world, alert the media immediately. I don't go to YT everyday and type in "world's cutest kitten" because I suppose the vid would be on "most watched" and show it had a billion hits and I would click on it. Yes, I know I sound like a crotchety old man. What's yer point? |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: gnu Date: 08 Jan 11 - 08:25 PM Mary Jane has a few vids on YT, but not her best tunes, as one would expect. |
Subject: RE: BS: You Tube Gems From: gnu Date: 08 Jan 11 - 08:32 PM Did ya ever find one by mistake that ya like and don't have a clue as ta why? |
