Stephen Colbert’s Holiday Apparition will include a reading from Stephen’s best selling new book: I Am America (And So Can You!), which is currently The New York Times number one bestseller, an interview about growing up in Charleston, and his journey from Charleston to Chicago’s Second City Improv Troupe to his hit Comedy Central series, The Colbert Report.

Are they selling t-shirts with that image? They’d make a mint! This makes me want to go to Charleston for the holidays (but I’ll probably end up in Jersey instead…)

omfg, I want one of those VIP tickets so badly.
That would be so expensive, though – buying the ticket, traveling to South Carolina. I can’t, I can’t, I can’t do that. Well. I mean, I guess I *could*, but no.
Lucky South Carolinians – I expect reports from those who get to go!

Wish I had $250 to party with Stephen. Sigh.

Cursed Ohio, centrally located to make it just impossible (for a poor college student) to visit any city worthwhile, i.e., one that Stephen visits.
Oh well, I’m just glad to see that Stephen is continuing to be his wonderful self and doing good for South Carolina.

Sigh.
This just reminded me that if the writer’s strike isn’t resolved soon, there will be no TCR Christmas special. That would be so awesome: Stephen singing with Tony Bennett and Manilow? (Emmy please!) Stephen’s beleaguered staff resentfully participating. Stephen wishing Jon ‘happy his thing too.’ Stephen drinking too much egg nog and sexually harrassing Tad…
Sigh.
