   8 January 2009 - #2699 - Howie Mandel, Anthony Mackie, Lady Antebellum.   
   Conologue:   
   	Obama is to be in a forthcoming issue of Spider-Man; hearing   
   this, George W Bush said, OK, *now* I'm jealous.   
      
   	+ According to Reuters, Obama used to collect Spider-Man comics.   
      
   	McCafe adverts against Starbucks: four bucks is dumb.  Starbucks   
   responds: Mayor McCheese Is A Child Molester.  McNugges Are Made From   
   Endangered Silverbacks.  Osama bin Laden with a Big Mac.   
      
   	+ What, you folks haven't had McCafes for, like, half a decade   
   now?  They were adjacent to ...well, a bunch of McDonald's Singapore.   
      
   	Ricky Gervais stops in to drop off his movie's DVD.  He also   
   calls.   
      
   NCAA Football Mascots:   
   	Wake Forest Old Man In A Basket Of Yarn.  University of Iowa   
   Krunkhead Rocking Out Way Too Hard to Elevator Music.  University of   
   Florida Gator with Gaydar (goes after LaBamba).  Florida A&M Old Lady On   
   Speed.  University of Ohio Bobcats Attacking A Guy Named Bob Katz.  He's   
   on Facebook.  Conan tosses the (real) computer over his shoulder.  Duke   
   University Blue Man Groupie.  Old Lady On Speed runs up the stairs.   
   Boston College Cat That's Too Big For The Maze It's In.  It hops out.   
   It's fine.  New York University's Only Hooker You Can Afford In This   
   Economy.  The Gator With Gaydar goes after it.   
      
   	+ Odd to have two mascots get secondary jokes.   
      
   Howie Mandel:   
   	His wife bought a hedgehog in Las Vegas, for her son's good   
   school work.  Spooked the turndown maid.  When does a store feel   
   'Everything Must Go' is untrue?  Feminine products baffle men.  Told his   
   son a bone spur was a 'boner' and he should skip physical education.   
   One prank: woman tricked her husband to thinking they were in a   
   mouthwash commercial.   
      
   Anthony Mackie:   
   	Plays Tupac Shakur.  If he wasn't good at it he'd be ostracized.   
    New Orleans is different from New York City.  They let you carry around   
   alcoholic beverages and get to-go cups.  Exercising for a part.   
      
   Lady Antebellum:   
   	Lady Antebellum: I Run To You.
