Be sure to watch the Colbert Report tonight
This is probably the highlight of my blogging career so far.
The story that I wrote about an Amtrak photo contestant who was arrested by Amtrak police last month ended up taking the internet by storm, eventually landing in Stephen Colbert’s lap where he decided to do a spoof on the incident.
The segment runs at tonight at 11:30 p.m. on Comedy Central and will be repeated throughout the day tomorrow. It will be posted here as soon as it is posted on Colbert’s website.
Duane Kerzic, who ended up handcuffed to a wall in Penn Station in New York City after photographing an Amtrak train for an Amtrak photo contest, said the segment will be featured under Colbert’s “Nailed ‘Em” series.
An example of a Nailed ‘Em segment is in the following video where Colbert reports about a man in California who had a legal prescription for marijuana but ended up losing his job after a urine test revealed he had been smoking marijuana.

It’s been in the making since Jan 16 and 19. I cannot wait to see it.

I love that show. Can’t wait to see it tonight.
Best of everything in 2009…loved your website and pics of Idaho…you really do travel the backroads.
My son’s a photographer and is always telling me what I can and can’t take pictures of…with my little canon elph. Thanks for sharing .
That was hilarious!
But man, I’m suddenly getting swamped with readers who are Googling the story.
Yeah.. it was so funny I couldn’t stand it.
I think it was the best “Nailed ‘Em” to date. I got interviewed for like 6 hours for that 5 minutes.
I can’t wait to see what my site does. Should be a huge boost to traffic. The emails are just starting to show up.
Hi Mary, Thanks for looking at my pics. I’ve been all over the place in out of the way places. If you have any questions just ask away.
Duane
When did they it would available for online video?
I don’t know but I can’t wait. They didn’t put Friday’s show on the net yet. I hope it’s on sometime tomorrow. It’s on again at 2:00AM, 11:00AM, 2:30PM and 8:30PM.
I don’t have one of those hookups to my computer to capture it. Do you?
I was hoping to see you playing with the toy trains but I guess that got cut.
great heads up carlos, tanx!
In the process of uploading to vimeo…
From NOW 12:30AM PST, the video should be available at 01:30AM PST.

Keep fighting the good fight.

The best part was your neck rolls! I knew you were ripe for parody.
But they really made Amtrak Police out to be the fools they are. It was a great segment.
LOL that was great. Who wants to start a pool to see how long it takes Amtrak to call?
