So, apparently washed out 80s stars are making comebacks beyond the world of sex, syringes and sonograms at Seattle Grace.
The Once and Future Pee-wee from the NYTimes
To be honest, I was never a fan of Mr. Herman myself. But, he was funny in 30 Rock. And so I shall proclaim this, May 24 to be Pee Wee Herman Memorial Day.
I was going to leave a clip from an appearance on Letterman, but by the time I got through the first of 10 minutes, I remembered why I never liked Pee Wee. He was damn annoying. Nonetheless, this is a 60 second clip of him and underpants. It's a fun little meta romp, given his eventual arrest for indecent exposure. They are some underpants that are just too big to fill.
And so, these five minutes being five minutes longer than I ever thought I'd devote to the man, the maniac, the myth, I sign out with the Vulcan Peace Props Haiku. Or whatever they called it. Because I used to think he kinda looked like one.
Live Long and Prosper
Or be a tv star, Just
Don't show you pee-wee
