Here’s a too-short bit of fun with Stephen Colbert and Tony Bennett, from Wednesday’s show. Hey, if Colbert does more of this, he could expand to an hour and offer a real alternative to Leno and Letterman!

Colbert In Parade
Hey, did you see that Stephen Colbert is in this week’s normally conservative-to-milquetoast Parade magazine? It’s a good article. Don’t miss it.
By the way, I didn’t watch Colbert with Jon Stewart on the Emmys last week. I clean forget they were on! Sorry.
Stop Pats!
This poster was inserted in this week’s Boston Sunday Globe. It’s New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.
Before Brady broke up with his actress girlfriend he got her pregnant. She had the baby, but Mr. Perfect is staying with his new girlfriend, the supermodel. Hey, he can afford it.
Pats coach Bill Belichick apparently felt he needed to cheat to guarantee victory. He’s been fined half a million bucks but, hey, he can afford it, and the team will undoubtedly cover it anyway. I really don’t care, but I’m glad people are seeing these guys as they really are — arrogant and self-centered.
The ORIGIN of Tek Jansen!
At last! The first part of Tek Jansen’s origin story! Hmm… something funny about that eye patch…

Colbertiness
Stephen’s back from his two week vay-kay. I assume he recorded a couple of “Better Know A District” segments, and some other special features. Wednesday night will have a new Tek Jansen cartoon. Always fun, but sometimes a bit too raunchy for all ages. Isn’t it great how Captain America’s shield is kept proudly in view?

Paul Sullivan Passes On
Last week Boston talk radio host Paul Sullivan gave up cancer treatment to go into hospice. It wasn’t a long stay. Paul died Sunday.
Paul Sullivan lived in Tewksbury, Massachusetts, where his family has been prominent for generations. I lived in Tewksbury for ten years, on Sullivan Parkway. I assume there’s a connection, but I don’t know for certain.
