   	Good question and I haven't seen any particular statement about   
   what Smigel's been up to.  It's easy to see why there'd be a bit of a   
   stockpile of bits left over from the conventions; perhaps David Blaine   
   helping us forget how cool he was with small-scale magic was too good   
   a target to pass up?  Or maybe he has enough TV Funhouse bits for   
   Saturday Night Live for now and is filling his days usefully.   
      
   	The DVD of that Funhouse show done for Comedy Central a few years   
   back is out already, isn't it?

   >"War Is Kind" was the title of this dark, meditative song by the   
   >Wallflowers' front man. The title comes from the line "Mother, war is kind   
   >/ of like hell but I am fine." Other lines contain similarly sly commentary

   	I was actually lost enough enjoying the sound of the song that   
   I wasn't focusing on the words.  There are songs that do that for me.
