NYC is breeding a race of Supermen

Last week a guy fell 47 stories and lived.*

Today 7 tons of steel fell on a guy and he lived.

And my leg stopped being sore a day after I stopped going to Yo La Tengo's Hanukkah shows.

I think there's a pattern here.

Oh, speaking of Yo La Tengo's Hanukkah shows, here are Quicktime movies I made of John Oliver's stand-up set and Eugene Mirman's stand-up set from Wednesday and Thursday nights respectively. David Cross' set from Tuesday will be up later this weekend.


* Don't read this story because you'll hear about his brother who also fell 47 stories, but he fell on a fence and was cut in half. That tempers the awesomeness that one of the guys survived.
