File this under, "It's the thought that counts." Andrew Lloyd Webber thinks that laid-off Brit bankers are going to feel like celebrating if he gives them two free tickets to his current shows, “The Sound of Music” and “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.” But they have to bring their dated pink slips to the box office to get the tickets!

Another nugget of fallout from the financial crisis isn't just the prices on Lehman Brothers swag on eBay — it could be Obama's seemingly gleeful reaction to it, according McCain strategists.

You all know The Foo Fighters' haunting song "Everlong," right? Well, hold onto your hats, and forget you ever heard about the Jonas Brothers. This is such an original version of the song, you'll tell yourself that you wouldn't have known what it was if I hadn't told you first. Enjoy!
Paul Revere and his Midnight Riders took a little detour and ended up on the Jersey Shore. Forget drunk history. I want all historical events to be performed by over-the-top actors in "Jersey douchebag" drag.
