Two Freddies Krueger Enter, One Freddy Krueger Leaves You could go look at the first teaser poster for the remake of Nightmare on Elm Street, OR, you could go listen to the hilarious Paul F. Tompkins bit about the guy who dresses up like Freddy Krueger on Hollywood Boulevard. This should be an easy one.

Ok, I lied. The first link actually did work, but I clicked the link three times, which took me to three different tracks. I was too stupid to realize that the first one was the one you were talking about. So, yeah. I'm just gonna leave now, come back tomorrow...

Freddy Krueger is on after his Fabio story. Tompkins killed it. Just click the play radio thing.

Freddy Krueger doesn't scare me. Now, if you're talking a peanut brittle can filled with fake cobras... (shudders)

Thank you Gabe, for giving me the beautiful gift of that comedy bit. The police not checking his hands bit was about the best thing.

Freddy Krueger is to burn victims as Esther is to orphans.

I hate lastfm. More like lastplacei'dgotolistentoshitontheinternets. I had to shut the clip down, and now when I go back, it keeps trying to make me listen to Gre Giraldo. If I wanted that I'd Tivo every Comedy Central roast, thank you.

Sorry not Gre Giraldo, aka the bizarro Che Guevara. I meant Greg Giraldo. I left out the extra 'G', which would have been for 'great' if it weren't Greg Giraldo.

Paul F. Tomkins is great. His take on religion is smart and he's a nifty dresser.

Damn, letters are dropping out everywhere. (see above). Its like the alphabet is tied to a merry-go-round, and there's an insurance adjuster that has to pick which letters get to make it into words and names, and the other letters get shotgunned in the face.
