Philip stuttered and his flatulence was widely remarked in private, but none of the other kids bothered him because of his big brother.

You're gonna find some special people there...

Fog City

Appealing to criminal kindness...

Morris vented his rage. Say what you will about sticks and stones, but an unflattering remark about someone's nose can cut to the quick.

A dash of orange outside Lompoc.

Herbert had that sinking feeling. The one that comes from being buried in tar up to the shoulders.

I prey for you.

Borat in LA. "Is a good!"

The view from the giant helium balloon.

Wave 'em like you just don't care.

Bonus video
