Colbert Report's Stephen Colbert Wrist Injury


For those of you who are not devoted members of the Colbert Nation (Burma!) you may be unaware that Stephen Colbert sustained a broken wrist several weeks ago during the taping of one of his shows. Following the lead of Lance Armstrong with his yellow live strong wristbands Stephen Colbert launched a one man campaign to raise wrist injury awareness. Stephen was soon seen wearing a red "wrist strong" wristband of his own. Now you can show your solidarity and wear one too. Your duty to the wrist strong cause doesn't end at simply wearing the wristband-- no, you must then pass the wristband on to someone more famous than you-- thus, increasing more wrist injury awareness. Getting someone more famous than you to focus on important issues really works. I mean, can you honestly say you had even heard of Africa before Bono mentioned it? I mean really people.

Jokes aside proceeds from the sale of the wrist strong bands go to support the families of soldiers fighting in Iraq. For all of you cheapskates just know if you want one for free just be more famous than me!
