Funny clip.

therealblankman, i either don't understand your point or i just disagree:

Liszt / Mozart

Franz_Liszt / Wolfgang_Amadeus_Mozart

F. Liszt is not morphologically analogous to M. Ozart -- and if anyone is going to search, they'll be looking for the composer's last name.

still processing...

i agree. he's unpolished, and the fact that he is disabled causes me to pay more attention. he's kinda cute and charming, and has a nice presence on stage, and the humor was a bit of a one-trick pony. regardless, i am sure it marks a major personal triumph for him -- and i am sure much of his support was from the sympathy vote.

creepy. follow the youtube link for the full movie, posted in segments.

wow. does anyone know if there's a backstory here? he seemed genuinely angry. That "fuck you and the horse you rode in on" didn't sound like a joke.

In the first hour of Wednesday's 8-23 Situation Room, CNN apparentlythought it had a phoner with Wendy Hutchens, a woman "who claims that five years ago she had detailed chats about the death of JonBenet Ramsey" with John Mark Karr.
"...he was instructed to kill JonBenet by Howard Stern"
The caller was a "notorious prank caller" named Thomas Cipriano. He says: "I've been doing this for 20 years! You'd think they'd be on to me by now..."

The clip is much longer than necessary, but the exchange with the "crack" [sic] caller is at the beginning.
On a personal note, I watched the entire clip because I rarely am exposed to CNN and always find it visually fascinating. The graphics get more sophisticated, ...and it's slightly distracting to those unaccustomed to it. There is never a moment without considerable motion on the screen, even when the talking head is just taking. It's a way of helping the short attention-spanners keep their eyes on the tube. (Charlie Rose, with conversants sitting at a table, the background a uniform black void, is the antithesis of the ever-waving background of CNN; with Rose, you're on your own to supply the attention and brain activity to maintain focus on the conversation. my $.02

This is gruesome stuff, but very real. The posting is only the first 10 minutes or so; links to the rest of the documentary can be found on the YouTube page.

What, in fact, is the law? I'm not proud that I do not know -- does anybody here?

From Youtube page:
Harry Harlow, American research psychologist, was responsible for some of the most controversial experiments to have been performed in animal laboratories.
On his 'Rape Rack', disturbed female monkeys were forced to breed against their will. In the 'Pit of Despair' baby monkeys were hung upside down in total darkness for up to two years. And with the 'Iron Maiden', infant primates were confronted by a placid surrogate mother that began suddenly to tear at their flesh.
So what motivated Harry Harlow to conduct such disturbing experiments? Experiments that made Harlow the 'poster boy' of the animal rights movement in the United States. Bizarrely, the answer is love. Harry Harlow's work was an attempt to understand the nature of love, particularly that between mother and child.
According to Harlow's defenders, it is work we benefit from today. Defenders maintain that Harlow revolutionised and brought warmth to the way we parent infants. That he influenced crucial policies which operate in children's homes, social service agencies and the birthing industry in Britain and throughout the world today.
Can cruelty teach us anything about love?
First aired on More4 in the UK on 4th December 2005.

Just a comment, following up on Wepwawet: I've noticed many of the older clips we have here in VS would not be made made today, as our society swings back to a more repressive, less tolerant atmosphere.

I'm torn on this one -- I agree it should be seen in the context of the film. Yet, as film clips go, this is a well-known and easily identifiable moment in the movie, notorious for obvious reasons, and its made its mark in film history.

I cannot let it be, with the indignity of 0 votes.

"He won't love me unless I buy [insert product name]." I wonder how many commercials used variations on this theme, back in the day.
