That's Entertainment
To set up the scene, Michael and I didn't do much in the way of painting last night due to the distraction of the Olympics... and then...

Michael: Look what I borrowed! [gleefully holds up DVD I've never seen before]
Me: Is that some sort of workout video?
Michael: [grinning] Nope.
Me: Uhh.... porn?
Michael: Naah, this is only the most amazing documentary you will ever see.

And thus I was introduced to the glory that is Hands on a Hard Body. I can hardly describe it... you simply must read the amazon.com description and comments. Not to be confused with a new Garbage record with potentially the same name, this is a documentary about a radio/car-dealership give-away where 20-some contestants try to be the last with a hand on the grand prize... a brand new pick-up truck. It takes place in Texas, and there are some real good ol' boys in this one.

Maybe it struck me as so hilarious because we had just watched Waiting for Guffman last weekend. The comedy is in the seriousness of it all.
