Judd what's his name...

Throughout his career we can track the influence Sam’s idols have had on him. For Michael Jackson, and Kevin Bacon we just have to look at his moves in Charlie’s Angels, and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. Michael has got nothing on him. Where the theory falls apart is with, "Judd what his name?" Where do we find the Judd Nelson in Sam’s work? The best is yet to come.

Sincerest form of flattery

Impersonation is a male dominated profession. Beyond being male-centric, it has always been an exclusively human profession.
Currently there are an estimated 85,000 Elvis impersonators in the world. There are significantly less Liza impersonators (only 1% of which share Liza's sex), and a handful who can do Sade. Few performers have the bravery to impersonate a controversial figure such as Eva Braun. Leave it to Honey.

How to spot a drug mule:

  1. Appropriate clothing for the time of day.
  2. Amount of luggage for length of trip.

Rockwell + Walken

Roger Ebert in his review of the film Choke called Sam Rockwell, "the latter day version of Christopher Walken." It's easy to draw comparisons to Christopher Walken when talking about Sam Rockwell. They are both known for playing eccentric, quirky, unbalanced characters. They both have a delivery that is very identifiable. They both really love to dance. They're also both on Broadway right now in the same play.

Will Shakespeare’s Identity Problem

Joe Plummer is obsessed with the Shakespeare controversy

What if Shakespeare didn’t write Hamlet, Romeo and Juliet, or any of the plays attributed to William Shakespeare? The question gets asked more than you might think. And it has been asked for hundreds of years. Depending on who you ask, the Shakespeare Authorship Controversy is either the biggest cover-up of the last 500 years, the most epic literary mystery ever, or maybe just a bit of intrigue you never knew you were missing. Watch as IAS user Joe Plummer geeks out about it.

Adam, Politics, and Fire

If you ask Adam Mordecai, in this analogy, hardcore Republicans would be like arsonists. Republicans might not themselves be arsonists, but what they do only helps arsonists accomplish the arsonist goal. (Libertarians would actually be the arsonists).

Alan's Nuclear Family

Alan Cumming is obsessed with his dogs

It’s my experience that if you ask any dog owner, if they had to decide between pulling the plug on a family member or pulling the plug on their dog, the answer, more times than not, would be ‘depends on which family member.’
The subject of Alan’s obsession video was never in doubt because the organizing principle of Alan’s life is his dogs Honey and Leon. It’s also plainly clear that Alan is the center of the universe for Honey and Leon. All together, they make up the perfect family.

Labyrinthitis

The fact that Beethoven was deaf is used as a motivator by parents, teachers, and speakers. The truth of the matter is a little more complicated and heart breaking. Ludwig wasn't born deaf, he gradually lost his hearing. In a letter to his friend Dr. Franz Gerhard Wegeler, Beethoven said, "... For two years I have avoided almost all social gatherings because it is impossible for me to say to people "I am deaf".
