Okay, first off: I swear I’m not the type to just dump youtube videos on friends and relatives. I do it only very, very selectively (ie, that talking kitten has to be INSANELY cute). So if you can bear with, watch until at least 2:05, when Letterman finally responds.
But this is not about Letterman. It’s about the wonderful creature called Brother Theodore:
When I first saw this bit on Letterman back in high school, I didn’t know what I was watching. Was this standup? Performance art? One of Dave’s tech guys they decided was odd enough to put on camera? I didn’t know, I just knew I loved it. You know the feeling: just when you think there’s nothing new under the sun, humanity delights and surprises you – like the first time I saw “Twin Peaks,” or the British “Office.”
