What do an 80-year-old stripper, Iron Man, Kung-Fu Panda, Ben Stiller and indoor golf have to do with one another? If you said nothing, you’re right, but that’s the beauty of this column: as long as it is interesting and it is online, it’s fair game.

It’s one of those diverse weeks here at Staton Facts where we get a chance to see a funny video, read a disturbing news story and play an endlessly entertaining online game. We’ve truly got something for everyone.

So let’s get the old and wrinkly out of the way first. I’ve tried to avoid this video for a couple of weeks, but everywhere I went I ran into it. My girlfriend found it online and insisted I check it out and my favorite podcast, “Nobody Likes Onions,” insisted on talking about it one day.

I might as well pass this on to you. So here goes, the video describing the life and times of an 80-year-old stripper — who is still stripping. Her name is Tempest Storm, and she has been a burlesque dancer for decades. She describes herself as an entertainer who refuses to use strippers’ poles in her act.

I don’t know why I’m telling you about Tempest Storm. It seemed like a good idea because other people were talking about it. Maybe there’s a moral here. Maybe this video is supposed to show people what they will turn out to be like if they don’t quit while they’re ahead.

I’m not saying Brett Favre will turn out to be an 80-year-old stripper, but you get the point.

Now that the elderly train wreck is out of the way, let’s move on to something truly special. This video depicts Ben Stiller, Robert Downey Jr. and Jack Black brainstorming about how to best promote their upcoming film, “Tropic Thunder.” They decide the best thing to do is come up with a viral video to release on the Internet.

Stiller’s nephew Carl sits in to give the guys advice on the video, even telling Downey Jr. at one point that “Iron Man” was good, but “The Dark Knight” will make him look terrible. The best they come up with is Downey Jr. wearing an Iron Man mask while punching panda-head-clad Black in the crotch.

Now this is what a movie preview should be! Don’t ruin the scenes, just have the stars of the film sitting around in the room talking about how good it is. This kind of thing works like gangbusters for a comedy.

Finally, we have a fun little game on adultswim.com called “Fairway to Hell.” The game is simple. You step into a room with a golf club and a ball and you break everything you can find. The more accurate you are with your shots, the more points you get.

I’ve always wanted to do this in someone else’s house, but this game allows me to experience something close to that without the risk of lawsuits. Enjoy, and be sure to turn the volume up very high so the glass breaking sound effects ring out loud and clear.
