" a good actor, but, hell, I'm Willie Nelson!" That's right, you are.

The legendary country star and marijuana enthusiast turns 80 years old on Tuesday, but instead of us honoring him with a gift, he's given the world the best thing ever -- a spoof audition reel for 'The Hobbit 2.' What would the Peter Jackson-directed films look like with Nelson in the role of Gandalf? Here's a taste.

Looks like Walmart is attempting to prove to the American public that they aren't so evil, seeing as how the conglomerate just put forth a plan to hire 100,000 military veterans. Sounds like a good idea, doesn't it? Well, with many thanks to Conan O'Brien, we might have to think again.

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Mon, 17 Dec 2012 23:13:10 +0000

For as much as we've enjoyed Conan O'Brien's role as the host of his own TBS show 'Conan,' Jimmy Fallon's increasingly strong work on 'Late Night,' and even Jay Leno's seemingly peaceful return to 'The Tonight Show,' a new storm on the late-night front might be brewing. Some sources are saying that NBC executives have quietly begun searching for Fallon's replacement, in which case Fallon would take over for Leno as host of 'The Tonight Show' in the next few years. Is there any truth to the rumor?

Kyle Dowling — Wed, 24 Oct 2012 12:31:30 +0000

Should the 2012 presidential race come down to the great state of Florida, this video proves that America is officially in trouble.
