Hey, what did everyone think of the
Human Slinky? Was that great
or what? I
think we need more of this funny stuff. He wasn't a big name guest promoting
his newest movie, tv show, or album, but a regular guy, doing an irregular
thing. Perhaps Dave and the CBS show called "Late Show" could use more
human interest stuff.
LOL Maybe even a night dedicated to "Talent Night at the Late Show"

I thought the guy was
fantastic. What would have been really cool was to see Dave get into the
costume afterward!!! Oh Yeh.... Renee Silverman

When that guy first rolled
out I just cracked up. In fact I was literally rolling on the floor lost my
glasses and had to sit on the floor in front of the tv). They should have
more things like this on the show. It's different, it's weird and dammit...it's
funny! Liz

Ben is a relative of a
past Late Show guest: Veniamin the Human Slinky.
He's able to slip his spine out of joint in several locations, enabling him to
flop around until he folds himself into five compact segments. He moves
through a number of physical permutations to lively musical accompaniament.
However, some of these positions probably won't be
demonstrated on the Late Show, though they can be seen in Ben's special on the
Spice Channel.

There's been more frequent
bookings on Late Show of unusual (and real) performance groups.
I wonder who on the staff
has such a good eye for such acts? Sure, there's an occasional thud, like
Streb, but most of them are great picks. (Then again, I probably could watch
the Human Slinky.appear doing his
same act on Dave's show every night without complaint. Bring him back!)

It's been a few years
since my memorable performances on Late Show and Viva Variety. Do you know of
any new job opportunities for me? Veniamin, the Human
Slinky.
