Arlo Guthrie on "This Land" parody

Arlo Guthrie on "This Land" parody (See the parody here)


Well, I really can't speak for him. I can just tell you that when I saw it a few weeks ago I thought it was one of the funniest commentaries if not one of the most directly inspired... I called my sister, I called my friends, I sent everybody a link to the site so that they could go see it. And we've all been laughing about it since then. I think my dad would have absolutely loved the humor in it.

At one dollar each, the Foundation is hoping to raise five million dollars for people around the world who are living with cancer. http://www.nike.com/wearyellow/ has the details. As of this morning, all are backordered!
