Stephen Colbert: sharp-witted actor/comedian, presidential candidate

Why do I love Stephen Colbert ("coal-bear")?  He is smart AND funny, and presents an awesomely sharp portrayal of an ultra-conservative pundit on his show, The Colbert Report.  From his Better Know A... series of educational features, to his Threatdown and The Word, his eponyous alter-ego provides a welcome diversion from the "real" news shows. Thank you, Mr. Colbert!

And thank you, Colbert fans, for checking out my little applause page for Stephen.  While this is not meant to be an all-inclusive Colbert fan site, I will highlight my favorite Colbert stuff, especially the lesser-known clips and trivia.  Hope you enjoy it!

Have you tried the Colbert-flavored ice cream?

by Me

Ben & Jerry's ice cream recently released a brand-new flavor, called "Stephen Colbert's Americone Dream." The frozen confection is vanilla ice cream, with fudge-covered waffle cone bits, and a caramel swirl. I'll leave it up to you to infer the possible symbolism of those ingredients, but I can tell you it's a delicious combination!

From the Ben & Jerry's site: Ben & Jerry's new flavor is a decadent melting pot of vanilla ice cream with fudge-covered waffle cone pieces and a caramel swirl. It's the sweet taste of liberty in your mouth. Colbert believes AmeriCone Dream can make a difference. "I'm not afraid to say it. Dessert has a well-known liberal agenda. What I hope to do with this ice cream is bring some balance back to the freezer case."

Stephen Colbert is donating his proceeds from the sale of AmeriCone Dream to charity through The Stephen Colbert AmeriCone Dream Fund. The Fund will support charities of concern to Stephen such as food and medical assistance for disadvantaged children, helping veterans and their families, and environmental causes. "I will save the world," said Colbert.

Stephen Colbert's cast on eBay: SOLD!

Some lucky bidder now owns a bit of Stephen Colbert. The cast was sold on eBay for $17,200. The money from the sale goes to the Yellow Ribbon Fund. The Yellow Ribbon Fund assists injured service members and their families while they recuperate at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center and the National Naval Medical Center by offering free cab vouchers, hotel rooms, apartments, rental cars, job mentoring, internships and tickets to sporting and cultural events.

This is one of my all-time favorite scenes from Whose Line, right up there with Colin reporting in front of a green screen with scenes of himself. Love it!

The softer side of Stephen Colbert

by hmsweaver

Sesame Street: All-Star Alphabet I actually own this DVD. I got it for my kids before I even knew Stephen Colbert was in it. I love Sesame Street, and the kids really seem to learn and remember stuff from the cute, furry monsters, and bouncy jingles!

Stephen Colbert plays the letter "Z" in this video. He brings to life Z's struggle with always being last, and being overshadowed by the charismatic and popular letter "A." Other celebrities, such as Larry King, Sheryl Crow, and Melissa Ethridge, also appear.

If you have kids, or if you're really interested in some of Colbert's non-Comedy Central work, definitely check this out!

I was locked in my underground shelter cleaning my zombie rifle.

We have barely recovered from the original Y2K. If you don't remember, seven years ago at the stroke of midnight, planes fell from the sky, the banking system collapsed and power grids caught fire from coast to coast. Or so I assume.
