For a litÂtle weekÂend laugh, here is Stephen ColÂbert speakÂing at Book Expo AmerÂiÂca, pumpÂing his new book, I Am AmerÂiÂca (And So Can You!), sparÂring with Khaled HosÂseiÂni (author of The Kite RunÂner and A ThouÂsand SplenÂdid Suns), trashÂing CorÂmac McCarthy, and genÂerÂalÂly likenÂing books to cigÂaÂrettes. The clip gets betÂter as it moves along and ends with ColÂbert hitÂting his stride.
PS You can also watch Part 2 of the video here.

Hey, thanks for postÂing that! I also put up Part 2 of the event, which conÂsists of the Q&A periÂod, which is funÂny in its own right, besides ColÂbert, due to the woman who was pretÂty much pushÂing her own book and flirtÂing with Stephen durÂing her “quesÂtion.” Plus, Ken Burns shows longeviÂty might also be the soul of wit. ;-) Part 2 is here: http://www.dailymotion.com/MeowHouse/video/x25jgb_bea200706022of2_people
