and Excerpts from VH1’s “I Love 2006”

APRIL
18 – Germany to Allow Access to Holocaust Archives
|
|
| |
Mo
Rocca (Actor, Comedian) – This will
be a wonderful boon to the country’s waning tourism industry,
in addition to this measure, they are going to offer up 1 percent
of their GDP to academics from other countries to come in and utilize
this material for revisionist historical texts. Iran has expressed
major interest in contributing to this effort.
Alyson Hannigan (Actress) –
People don’t understand how big this measure is, especially
here in America. This is probably the best thing to happen for Jews
since Schindler’s List.
Oliver Stone (Director) –
This is exactly the kind of progressive governing that our government
could learn a few lessons from. It opens things up for a new dialogue
on a variety of topics, including, but not limited to JFK, the Cuban
missile crisis, and Roswell. If Germany can admit it’s mistakes
and wave its naked member for all to see, then what is America so
afraid of?
Gilbert Godfried (Comedian) –
WHAT I DON’T UNDERSTAND IS HOW THEY EAT ALL THOSE SAUSAGES
OVER THERE! THEY HAVE MORE NAMES FOR SAUSAGES THAN ESKIMOS HAVE
FOR SNOW!
David Hasselhoff (Actor, Adonis) –
I remember back when I took the wall down, speaking to several of
the emissaries and dignitaries about the possibilities of opening
up the archives. Many of them were very receptive, and I knew that
it was just going to be a matter of time. I mean, how can you say
no to the Hoff?

JULY
11 – Bombs Kill Hundreds on Trains in India |
|
| |
Hal
Sparks (Comedian, Actor) – What can you say? Rush
hour is a killer everywhere, even in Mumbai.
Dom Delouise (?) – All those poor people
going home from work, thinking about having a nice dinner, curry
maybe, thinking about having sex, a pale ale, and then they’re
dead. It’s like that time the lemur peed on Johnny Carson
and ruined his sport coat. Everybody thought it was real funny,
but it was a tragedy … because it was so unexpected.
Andrew Dice Clay (Comedian) – I was on tour
in Mumbai way back, and I had to ride those trains when no one picked
me up at the airport. Let me tell you, an entire country of people
eating spicy foods and enclosed public transportation don’t
mix. People are dropping bombs constantly in there. Honestly, it
amazes me thee death toll was only 200.
Biz Markie (Rapper) – Really, I didn’t
even hear about that. You really want me to comment on that? I was
told I’d spend an hour making fun of K-Fed, now I’m
just bummed out.

SEPTEMBER
20 – Thai Military Seizes Power |
|
| |
Mo
Rocca – So General Boonyaratkalin performed a flawless,
bloodless coup and declared martial law while the Prime Minister
was meeting with the UN in New York. Shortly afterward, the General
was challenged by Deep Blue to a chess match. If you ask me, the
computer didn’t stand a chance.
Michael Ian Black (Actor, Comedian) – The
old switcheroo. I met a woman named Candy at the same UN conference.
When we got back to her place, needless to say, I felt as foolish
as Prime Minister Shinawatra.
Fabio (Model) – I feel very bad for the Prime
Minister. I know what it is like to lose something so close to your
heart. To invest so much time and effort into a thing you love and
then you have it taken away from you when you are not looking. Prime
Minister, if you are watching, I’d like you to know that you
are welcome at my house anytime. We could share a bottle of Reisling
and talk things out. It would be very therapeutic.
Gilbert Godfried – THIS IS WHAT INSURANCE IS FOR!
YOU HAVE TO PREPAREFOR EVERY EVENTUALITY! (Raising his voice two
octaves) BUT WHAT UPSETS ME THE MOST IS THAT BEACAUSE OF HIS CARELESSNESS,
MY THIRD WORLD COUP RPEMIUMS ARE GOING TO GO THROUGH THE ROOF!!
Alyson Hannigan – I’m currently working
on a screenplay about this incident with Quentin Tarantino. It’s
going to be a highly stylized, non-linear retelling of the events
with a lot of blood and humor mixed in. We both agreed that there
wasn’t enough violence or funny things actually associated
to the event, so we’re taking a few artistic liberties. George
Clooney has already signed on to play Boonyaratkalin.

OCTOBER
9 – North Korea Tests a Nuclear Weapon |
|
| |
Hal
Sparks – I’m happy that they were finally able
to step out of South Korea’s shadow. For a long time, they
were just walking around with a chip on their shoulder. This should
provide them with the self-esteem and confidence they need to enact
some positive social change and help them achieve their larger humanitarian
goals.
Charo (Singer) – Cuchi, cuchi!
Dom Delouise – Sometimes I lay awake at night
and dream of my own nuclear capabilities. I only dream when I’m
awake, that’s one of the reasons I’m where I am today,
but if I could harness the power of the atom, I’m sure my
quality of life would be significantly improved.
Michael Ian Black – I’m always amazed
when countries where people don’t speak English achieve incredible
scientific feats like this. It seems to me that science would be
difficult in other languages, especially ones where all the words
sound the same.
Andrew Dice Clay – I’m not going to
lie, this is very upsetting to me. I’ve had a team working
on this same project since 1987, and we’re still three years
from testing.

DECEMBER
3 – Chavez Wins in a Landslide
|
|
| |
Mo
Rocca – Hugo, as I like to call him, won in a decisive
61% to 38% over Manuel Rosales. Incidentally, the other 1% voted
for an anonymous coffee manufacturer running on the platform that
his first action in government would be to declare war on Starbucks.
Biz Markie – Yeah, that guy came to see my
show in Vegas. He sat in the front row and kept yelling out for
“Just a Friend.” I finally played it just to shut him
up.
