James Earl Jones recently appeared on the Gayle King Show and as a gag read a few lines from a Justin Bieber song (see below). Not long after, someone took the audio and reworked the ending of “The Empire Strikes Back.” The result is the softer side of Darth Vader. You are going to like this one.

What is internet?
There once was a time when internet was not. Here are Bryant Gumbell and Katie Couric trying to figure out what internet is. Classic.

Top 10 YouTubes of 2010
It’s time for my annual posting of the Top 10 YouTube Videos of the Year (see last year’s list here). This ranking is totally unscientific. Only one person was polled to compile this list–yours truly. Except for a handful, the videos are mostly humorous ones. If you think I’ve left something out, let me know. I’ll think about adding it to the “Honorable Mention” category. Here’s the count down from number 10 to the number 1 video of 2010. If you’re interested, here are links to lists from previous years: 2009 | 2008

Obi Wan Montoya
I just saw this video on Abraham Piper’s site today, and I couldn’t resist posting it here. My research assistant’s last name is Montoya, but as far as I know he is of no relation to the inferior left-handed swordsman.

Well, at least he’s passionate! (HT: @DrMoore)

Animal Drummer
You don’t see this much anymore, but what this drummer is doing used to be pretty big with the 80’s hair bands. This guy, however, has hair like Jerry Lee Lewis, and he kind of dresses like him too. File this one under “vintage spectacle.” It’s a classic.

Darth Vader on Your GPS
Big hat-tip to Kevin DeYoung. This is hilarious.

Lakers Championship Parade
I don’t know what it is about this guy, but he slays me. This guy interviews people who have gathered to watch the Laker’s championship parade. He’s done it for the last two championships, and it’s like a cross between Marv Albert and Napoleon Dynamite. The video from this year’s parade is above. Last year’s is below. They’re both funny, but I still think the one below is the most entertaining.

Dad Life
This is kind of like “Swagger Wagon” redux with a focus on dad. I like the guy on the John Deere. He’s hard. (HT: Jen Philpot)

Acts29 Rap at SBC
A bit of comic relief followed the long and arduous session debating the GCR Task Force Report at the Southern Baptist Convention. Many of the messengers were leaving the hall when this happened, but I was there and heard the whole thing. An SBC messenger came to a microphone and offered a motion to affirm the Acts29 church planting network. But this wasn’t just any motion. This guy offered it in the form of a rap. After he finished making the motion, the chair called for a second, and the place erupted with seconds. I think everyone appreciated the light moment. The motion was subsequently ruled out of order. UPDATE:…
