Couchathon Raise Money For Sick Kids (Go watch them now. This very second)

Like all the best ventures in mankind’s short history, there may have been drinking involved in the conception of the Couchathon.

First take The Imponderables, four of Canada’s most skilled comedians, and force them all into a tiny room. Then ask for donations to two great charities. The more people donate, the more the “ass-tranauts” have to stay in the tiny room. On the couch. Performing for you, their unseen audience.

There is nothing more I love in the world than annoying friendly Toronto comedians as they are forced to sit on a couch for ...well, who knows how long. Give more to Charity for Sick Kids and they'll just keep on sitting there. Couchathon for Sick Kids, is not for the weak. Or unfunny. Go watch now. [ Couchathon ]

When they eventually get off their asses, then go check out the Imponderables site. They're always entertaining. Drunk or semi sober. Oh and I'd like to give a shout out to Dave, who I have had the pleasure of getting drunk a few times. ;)

**Update they have passed the 25 hours on a couch period. How long will they keep going?

Christie? You're... ALIVE?!

But, but HOW?? The manual said my robotic ninja-pirate bearmonkey assassins were unstoppable!

...We WILL meet again, St.Martin.

And next time, *I* will be victorious!!

I donated last week when I saw the link in your IM tag, Christie. Partly because thinking of hospitalized sick children makes me sad, and partly the thought of "torturing" the Couchathon participants with additional sleep deprivation.

I figure from a karmic standpoint my good intention canceled out my bad intention.
