It's hard to think of a more disparate triptych, but that's what the United Service Organization is all about -- bringing all corners of entertainment-dom together for the troops. David Blaine, Jon Stewart and Hall of Famer Karl Malone were over in Afghanistan over the weekend, and the NBA's Twitter account was on the scene to take a picture of the unexpected handshake line.

Here's Stewart's take on the visit, which is slightly NSFW (all words bleeped out). No word on whether or not Blaine and Malone stayed behind to, y'know, lend a hand. One uses illusions, one "boxes out" with the power of his rifle. Tell me that sitcom wouldn't work.
