Yep, it’s a smackdown. Thank you, Barry, for the tip.

The Jane Austen portion is about halfway through. Enjoy.

    Sorry Jane, Colbert wins every time.

    Of course, I have to imagine that Barry’s original interest in the clip was the closing Tip of the Hat segment. Just a hunch.

    Seems like a good guess, Bill.

    Katie Sis, I’d say you have a crush. Hey, speaking of which, congratulations on your beau getting to visit you for Christmas! That’s excellent news.

  4. Lady T Says:

    The Jane bit was funny and dead on;Miss Austen herself would find that amusing,in my opinion:)

    The Marvel comics stuff was great as well,thanks for posting the clip,Robin!

  5. Katie Sis Says:

    Colbert is my hero of sarcasm. I’m eagerly awaiting Murray’s arrival!

  6. robin Says:

    Lady T, didn’t you especially like the part where Stephen gazes out the window at the rain? Perfect.

    Katie Sis, good luck with Murray!
