Witherspoon Double-Shot


Once I realized I had two Witherspoons, putting them together seemed inevitable. 


This is movie star Reese Witherspoon.



This is comedian and actor John Witherspoon.


The historic Witherspoon Double-Shot almost didn't happen.  I took the Reese photo, but John was snapped by alert Late Show intern Justin Tasolides. 

This is Late Show intern Justin Tasolides.

I considered holding onto Justin's photo until I could pair it up with a picture of someone else with the last name Tasolides, but I decided not to press my luck.

  1. Show intern Justin Tasolides is dead? You said he is the late show intern Justin Tasolides. I would like to request a moment of silence to honor all his hard work and his alertness at photographing John Witherspoon, right before he died. Justin, not John.

    1. By your logic, Karl, the show I work for has been dead since 1993. If true, this is troubling.

    2. That would explain why you haven't been paid in 19 years. Each week you think "This is the week I finally get paid, 400 back checks!"

    3. No wonder I'm limping along with that broken-down camera.

    4. You should be asking Justin what it's like to be dead but not to know it. This could be a fascinating breakthrough in the field of psychoparagumnormal research.

  2. Posting from beyond the grave is certainly an interesting sensation. As is being an intern; college credit doesn't transfer to the after life.

    2. "CelebriGum Intern" is going to look great on your resume, Justin!

    3. Justin, can you tell us what caused your demise? Was it being forced to chew off-brand generic gum manufactured in the nether regions of China? Or were you pushed down the stairs of the Ed Sullivan theater by an angry, overworked writer?

  3. Hey is Justin the guy who plays Cardinal Timothy Dolan?
