I was seven years old when Michael Jackson debuted "Billie Jean" on Motown's 25th Anniversary show. I really do remember seeing him perform on the special. My parents grew up with the music of Motown in Thailand, so it's reasonable to think that they watched the special with us. Growing up, my sister and I watched a TON of TV, with and without our parents.
There is no doubt that the man could sing and dance. He really did influence an entire generation of singers and songwriters. For all of the craziness of his life, Michael Jackson truly made an impact on the world. RIP.

The First Nerd
This is a fantastically funny speech by John Hodgman, one of my favorite Daily Show correspondents and the PC Guy on Apple commercials, at the Radio and Television Correspondents Dinner. Since I'm blogging about this speech, I guess I'm a nerd, but I'm sure you already figured that one out.

NPH on the Tony's
I watched the Tony's on Sunday night and I meant to post this video earlier. This is Neil Patrick Harris' Tony wrap up at the end of the broadcast.
Operation Iraqi Stephen
Last night was the first installment of Stephen Colbert's "Operation Iraqi Stephen: Going Commando" and it was a riot. Colbert's real comedic talent is criticizing the Iraqi War and still be sincerely in support of the troops. One of my peeves is that when people automatically assume that you don't support the military troops if you are critical of the war and why we are there.
