I love The Daily Show - but you all probably knew that about me.

This past Thursday, though, there was a moment that had me almost dying laughing. Jon Stewart was talking about President Shrub's visit to Canada, and showed a clip of protesters knocking down a metal effigy of the president in Halifax, NS.

After the clip, he said: "Before this, the angriest thing to come out of Canada was Barenaked Ladies" - and showed BNL on the old-school Gordon cover.

Kellie admitted that she was surprised that Steven Page hadn't been all over the blog with that one - since Jon is a Barenaked Ladies fan, and Steve usually geeks out over any mention of the band in the American media.

*fangirl squeal*

Any chance you recorded it? *bats eyelashes*

We did TiVo it, but didn't record it! :-/

However, the Daily Show is prone to re-runs ... so, if I catch it again, I'll try to tape it for you! :)

Yay! I don't have cable, otherwise I'd try to catch it myself.

Man, he needs to come down to Raleigh then. BNL is all buddy buddy with the local radio station and has played about 5 free concerts down here.

Well, BNL are doing a New Year's concert in Tampa. :)

No kidding! I almost died laughing when the old Gordon cover popped up.

And I love the Lewis Black icon ... he's wickedly funny!

my brother called me up hysterical laughing about it, even more so because he'd never seen the original GORDON cover before. i had to email him a clear copy.
he says 'i love BNL more than EVER!'
