Former Tonight Show host Johnny Carson used to do a bit about a psychic named Carnac the Magnificent.

Epic Outfit Post: Electric Lady Gaga Land
I saw Lady Gaga at Radio City Music Hall on Thursday and she kicked so much ass that I’m traumatized … traumatized that I didn’t get tickets for a second night. What was I thinking? I should have known once wasn’t enough! I realized that about Madonna years ago and now I always buy tickets…
Roma-Ro-Ma-Ma! Gaga-Ooh-La-La!
Honest to God, I was a very shy child… …but that was a long time ago, little monsters. More about the Lady Gaga concert soon (that’s my souvenir t-shirt above).
