		<description>Silent Library is great.

This year&#039;s batsu game was funny but hopefully the last of it&#039;s kind - I think they&#039;ve done just about as much as they can do with it. I was disappointed they didn&#039;t do a part with them sleeping (no Shohei-hei or Konya ga yamada).

I didn&#039;t notice any rising stars who killed, but it was interesting to see that they had a part that was very similar to Matsumoto&#039;s すべらない話. The recent one (12/27) had a lot of fanfare. I&#039;d love to see more of that kind of comedy.</description>

		<description>Excellent post.

However, no mention of ガキの使いやあらへんで！！ should be left without mention of the awesome Silent Library bit, especially with one with Ernesto Hoost.
