Sure, everyone knows and loves The Walken and his cowbell, Monty Python’s Dead Parrot and Rick James (bitch!). But, Nerve.com and IFC have gone even farther and decided to compile the 50 Greatest Comedy Sketches of All Time.

Little Becky from Dublin has become a huge hit on this site. Her first two articles, featuring her prank calls, have garnered over a thousand comments and brought many repeat visitors back to Merchantprince.com.

If you’d asked me what my biggest draws on this blog would be back when I started, I doubt it would have been an 8-year old doing prank calls. But there you are. And here you are again, for I have new media for all her fans.

Enjoy Becky on a UK TV show from last Christmas, wherein she showcases a karaoke machine and charms everyone in the audience (of course).

Regurgitating the Apple: How Modern Liberals “Think” was a March 7, 2007 address to the Heritage Foundation by Hollywood writer Evan Sayet (Politically Incorrect with Bill Maher, Win Ben Stein’s Money).

During this excellent lecture, Sayet synthesizes the critical flaws in modern leftist thinking and provides a completely new way to explain those motivations in post 9/11 America.

Again, I’m rare with the political video on Merchantprince, but I heartily recommend this one:

So I have been pretty busy lately, what with getting into the car business and playing EVE like some kind of lunatic. Been having a blast and I hope my finances are finally taking a turn for the better.

I’ve also been working on the redesign for this site and am still not sure I’m happy with the look. I also want to get the advertising going again, so there will be more changes to come.

In the meantime, Conan has an answer for you:

I just watched this and at first thought it was some kind of comedy show, but it’s real footage. This Australian kid threw a party while his parents were out of town, 500 people showed up and terrorized the neighborhood. Some local news station gets him for an interview - and I wish I’d been half as cool as this kid when I was 16:

George Romero, the original master of the zombie move genre, has a new film out about - well, guess what?

In any case, this installment will differ from all previous Romero films in that it will feature a first-person handycam style of footage. I am dubious on this point, as I have had enough (bad) shakycam experiences in both film and TV to give me pause about Romero’s brainstorm.

But it is zombies. And it is Romero. See for yourself:

I saw this on Popoholic the other day and it cracked me up silly. The guys at RC are the best and this short stars the voice of one Michelle Trachtenberg. MT played Dawn on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, my favorite show. Kudos to Michelle, that’s the funniest scream ever!

For today’s Monday video, I thought I’d share this funny little number about a raccoon who is really serious about renovating his TV room.

Looks like I found something good right when it’s starting to break. I heard this song the other day and now have the video for you all to enjoy.

Colbie Caillat is out with the video to her debut single ‘Bubbly’, from the album ‘Coco’, out July 17th. Watch it below:
