One of my favorite Kids in the Hall sketches:
"I've got a hostage, copper."
"Then perhaps you should get on the other side of him, sir."

Quote of the Day: The Kids in the Hall
From season four:
I didn't ask to be a prophet. Nope, you see one day I just heard a voice say, "Hey, Ted! Ted! No, over here, Ted!" And I turned and I saw the very bright lights. And I said, "Hi," and God said, "Hi," and I said, "So you're God huh?" and God said, "Yup, how you doin', Ted?" and I said, "Okay, how 'bout you Lord?". "Pretty good. What's new, Ted?" I said, "Oh, nothing much, what's new with you?" And He said, "Well, you know, same old, same old. Well, I guess I'd better be running along, you must be busy." And I said, "No, God, I'm not doing anything." And God said, "Well, I better be running, anyway." And I said, "Wait, God, is there anything you'd like me to tell the people?" And God said unto me, "Just tell 'em I said, 'Hi.'"

Alive
Recently I watched a really interesting documentary on the History Channel called "I Am Alive: Surviving the Andes Plane Crash". It was about the Uruguayan rugby team that crashed in the Andes in 1972. The survivors were forced to eat the remains of the passengers who died in the crash. It's an amazing story, but unfortunately it made me think of this:
