Who Is Jimmy Kimmel and Why Is Ben Affleck Sweet on Him?

I don't watch TV much.  No reason, really, other than I got out of the habit about a year ago.

So I was vaguely aware of Sarah Silverman, the comedian, but I didn't know bupkis about Jimmy Kimmel.   Well, it seems they are a couple, and Silverman and the actor Matt Damon made a  practical-joke video for Kimmel's birthday.

Well, few practical jokes go unreturned.  Jimmy Kimmel got Ben Affleck and a host of other celebrities to participate in a riposte.  I was particularly taken by Harrison Ford's performance.

The Kimmel-Affleck version is laugh-out-loud funny

I read all about it at Gene Expression.
