Not the best run for either car, but a clear example of power/weight being the most important measurement to consider when thinking about pure acceleration.

Wow, I already deemed Bill'O as a complete waste of space for this Universe and often wondered why in the hell John Stewart went on there (as I doubt the "camps" changed hands very little, if ever). Now I know that Bill literally missed High School and most of Junior High. His misconceptions of how the government is run is amazing.

I also like that he uses the Post Office as his example. Which happens to be one of the best run programs bar-none in the United States government--except for that wound caused/created by the Republicans in Congress the recent past. The Post Office uses no tax dollars, stamps only! They also made a profit each year until the little fiasco I mentioned were the republican Congress decided that FedEx, UPS, DHL, and other shippers had a point, so they shot the Post Office in the back which literally crippled them in ONE year--that is how horrendous the law was (look it up, it's quite the stomach churner).

Fox News is out of touch with reality and of course it doesn't matter to them as they create their own reality as they see fit. Their watchers seem to suck it in fervently and then when they repeat it to others they can't even remember Fox News's version, so they create yet another version of an already, completely wrong story (assuming there was a story to begin with).

Of course, Alan can barely point out to Bill that he's wrong and he still lets him finish the sentence making him look atleast safe in the "no fact zone" to his loyal flagellating viewers. Alan really is "Droopy Dog" as pointed out in comedy pieces, it's pathetic how close he is to that character. When you have someone by the throat like that and you basically let him get away by shaking your head in disapproval and saying, "Well that's just not...quite...right.....".


A small secondary story about our current modern lies pertaining to the "Fox News" way of life is recent attack ads from a "Democratic Super PAC" (if I remember right, I need to find out for sure--if I find it in time I'll change it in here) going after Mitt Romney (if I can find a good news link for this story I'll sift it--CBS had this story I saw). Current attack ads are going after Mitt Romney because he went to France on his Mormon mission a long time ago, but from that Mitt has kept up with French affairs, speaks fluent French and overall I can't see this as being a negative AT ALL (it's a positive in anyones book except for whoever ran the ad). Anyway, they of course are attacking him by saying that by having such close relations with the French he must of course be liberal... BUT, the "Fox News" part of this story is while the ad is running it has scenes were Mitt is talking in French to some people, down below it is being translated and what he is saying is further proof that he is an out right near liberal, certainly not Republican. Of course, CBS decided, just for the hell, of it they would have the ad translated by a French translator. They found that whoever made the ad was not only being disingenuous about his relation with the French people, but the translation done by the ad makers did not match what they were saying...

Pathetic... And it works, because people either don't think they have enough time to bother to care, they are literally just to stupid (I hate to say that, but it's very true and it can be dangerous), or worse of all they are more than smart enough and have the time, but just like Fox News they are the evil in this world. Our political system is dead, what the hell are we supposed to do about that other than Revolution?!

I will always remember this song as the hold music on the Simpsons when Homer loses Maggie & calls the missing children hotline.

One of the best running gags on that show was the ironic hold music.

Great find on that interview. It took me most of the morning at work to get through, but totally worth it. Thanks!

First heard of Gale Sayers this morning in an interview of Patton Oswalt by Adam Carolla. Interestingly, Patton Oswalt says he watches videos of Gale Sayers on the field to inspire his comedy writing.

Holy shit!!! That was a *quality run if I ever saw one. And ironically, it's a *fail as well. Well, not really, since it's arguably the best run ever, but I just want to have quality and fail in the same post. Ouch.
