The day after Pi Day is the Ides of March. In honour of the day, some classic Wayne and Shuster.

As first-generation television comedians go, these guys are a couple of my favourites. Their TV show was a fairly typical "acted out radio play" format, but what made Wayne and Shuster different was that their comedy was extremely literate.

This episode is an extended version of a sketch that they performed on their first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show, and it's probably still their most famous.

Some trivia: Frank Shuster was the cousin of Joe Shuster (the co-creater of Superman) and father-in-law of Lorne Michaels.

Actual show is after the jump.

Arrr, today be Talk Like a Pirate Day!

Time for a sing-along.

The blog formally known as "Andrew's Thingy", which my wife thoughtfully put in, is now getting a more permanent name, as I start to use it more. It is known as "The BWAIN". Why? Because this is a Blog Without An Interesting Name.

The scariest thing about this, though, is that all of the good titles I could think of are meta-jokes of one form or another.
