In early 2006, Penn Jillette used his radio show to tell us about the time he suffered a bunch of bee stings during a TV special, resulting in the skin coming off his scrotum the following day. It was a brutal story. I'd link to it if I could only remember which day it was.

It was at this point he mentioned another story in his repetoire, which he referred to only as "the Blow Dryer Story," which, he claims, makes the bee sting story sound like a fairy tale. Apparently, it is a story that is so special, it would have to wait until 2007.

Well, 2007 is here, and tomorrow is the anniversary of the first show, he is packing as many witnesses into the studio as he can, and telling the blow dryer story. And you can listen to it, noon MST, on January 3, online. Gather your friends in the cubicle and grab some cupcakes.

It looks like Pachelbel has taken YouTube by storm. But I'm sure by this time next year we'll have moved on to Bach's Invention No. 10 or something.

The best part of that Pachelbel video was the way it makes the Canon play continuously in your head day and night. Earworms generally don't bother me, as I've found that Journey can dislodge any one of them. But this person has used the same technique to turn Journey into a high-potency song-jumping earworm. And he must pay. Michael Bolton should cover this guy's favorite song.
