Christopher Walken is Awesome

Last night at dinner I went in my fridge to get the sodas to go with our dinner last night, and all of a sudden in my head I got "I've got a fever, and the only prescription... is more cowbell".

For those of you who don't know about the cowbell, check out the SNL skit below. Basically, it's the SNL cast as Blue Oyster Cult playing "Don't Fear the Reaper" and Christopher Walken as Bruce Dickinson. I think it's hilarious and I usually don't like Will Ferrell; Walken makes it for me.



Then this morning I peeked at the lastest "Wist" additions (you can see what other people are adding), and I saw a "I need more cowbell" t-shirt.

Needless to say, I added it to my Wist.

If you need further evidence that Christopher Walken is awesome - if you're not QUITE convinced... just watch this music video.

I have no idea what you're talking about. SNL is another one of those cultural things I totally missed out on.

But, every time I hear the word "cowbell," I think, "Cowbell solo!" You need to see Cannibal the Musical.

Got a chance to watch the Walken over the weekend.

That was hilarious.

I still shudder when I think of Will Ferrell's shirt riding up his stomach as he gyrates like a madman.

How can you not like Will Ferrell??? My husband and I love Will Ferrell! We just watched his SNL greatest hits DVD the other night, and it had the cowbell skit on it. It was awesome! I agree with you, though, Christopher Walken rocks, too!
