Does this have a prank phone call to The Larry King Show w/Carroll O'Conner as the guest? The prankster was a friend of mine.

I've heard good things about Fog of War, and will probably catch it at some point. Can you rent it yet?

Heavy Metal Parking Lot is cool as hell. My buddy has a shitty dub VHS that he's letting me borrow. He'll definately be interested in picking up a better copy.

On the same tape that he's letting me borrow there is a REALLY shitty quality video of this guy selling Winnebagos. It's an outtake reel where he keeps fucking up his lines, freaking out, and swearing at the camera crew. It's hilarious. It's not really a documentary, but have any of you guys seen/heard of this? I'd like to find a better quality version.

There's a bunch of Larry King stuff but I can't remember, haven't watched in a while. What did he say?

He was imitating the wrestler The Iron Sheik. Said something like, "Archie Bunker! Big buttocks man..." Can't remember what else he said.

He got another prank on the air on that show but I can't remember the guest. He taped 'em both.

Yep. That's it. I think I have a different version, but this is the same stuff. Thanks, man!

I read some interview recently with Guy, where he said he ended up falling into Brendan's drum kit during that same stunt, and he actually hurt himself pretty good... guess that's why they didn't include that footage!
