I see videos like this from time to time - who stands in front of their tv with a camcorder??


People who don't have a patch cord for their camera to hook into the output of their VCR/PVR. Or at least lack the technical savvy to hook it up.

Something I can throw and hit you with including their VCRs.

What is this 'VHS' of which you speak? Sounds like witchcraft.

Thank you. At least I don't have to find it in my VHS tape.

The Tim Allen jab, later in the evening, was absolutely hysterical and 100% true.


When was that shown?

The American "poor?"

* Forty-six percent of all poor households actually own their own homes. The average home owned by persons classified as poor by the Census Bureau is a three-bedroom house with one-and-a-half baths, a garage, and a porch or patio.

* Seventy-six percent of poor households have air conditioning. By contrast, 30 years ago, only 36 percent of the entire U.S. population enjoyed air conditioning.

* Only 6 percent of poor households are overcrowded. More than two-thirds have more than two rooms per person.

* The average poor American has more living space than the average individual living in Paris, London, Vienna, Athens, and other cities throughout Europe. (These comparisons are to the average citizens in foreign countries, not to those classified as poor.)

* Nearly three quarters of poor households own a car; 30 percent own two or more cars.

* Ninety-seven percent of poor households have a color television; over half own two or more color televisions.

* Seventy-eight percent have a VCR or DVD player; 62 percent have cable or satellite TV reception.

* Seventy-three percent own microwave ovens, more than half have a stereo, and a third have an automatic dishwasher.


By all means, don't let the facts get in the way of a good crusade on behalf of the richest poor in the world.

Murphy's Law. A minute after the video stops a meteor hit the theater leveling it completely. The tape was recovered showing this, but it accidentally jammed up in the VCR while transferring to digital. The digital video, btw, carries a curse that will kill you by the end of the week.

Sorry.

"Our health care system is based on the premise that health care is a commodity like VCRs or computers and that it should be distributed according to the ability to pay in the same way that consumer goods are. That's not what health care should be. Health care is a need; it's not a commodity, and it should be distributed according to need. If you're very sick, you should have a lot of it. If you're not sick, you shouldn't have a lot of it. But this should be seen as a personal, individual need, not as a commodity to be distributed like other marketplace commodities. That is a fundamental mistake in the way this country, and only this country, looks at health care. And that market ideology is what has made the health care system so dreadful, so bad at what it does."

-Dr. Marcia Angell

I disagree with this statement so much. Markets made computers, cars, new commercial rocket vehicles, beer, houses, nearly everything you consume. Not only that, but even things that are needs, like food and housing, are market driven; and yet prices go down and down. Medicine isn't inexpensive, even if it is was "free". The costs of X number of doctors being payed Y dollars a year in Z number of hospitals isn't going away just because it would hypothetically be controlled by the state. If the state were to seize medicine in the US, it would remove it from the forces that have made cars, rockets, beer, and every other commodity great. Government is the path to rot and stagnation. If you want good health, you do not want someone making decisions on it on a whim of being elected, you want him making it because he will only get paid if he does well...period.

I realize this is a comedic presentation but IKEA assembly complaints are pretty fertile ground for comedians.

But...it's not that hard. Back when we had VCRs, I also had no trouble setting the clock. Am I a snob for saying that?

Companies won't care. They just want more money.

I am still using my 20" CRT TV from 1996 and VCR. I don't like buying/upgrading stuff that work fine. I will replace them when they die or severly broken.

BUT..., Why?


Because he can!

Lol, eeeek! Honestly, most Finns don't sound that bad! But you can actually understand what he's saying.. kinda.. I think I need to watch this in bits. Thanks for pointing it out. I know us Finns are very weird!
