If Blue ends up becoming some big shot mogul, I wonder if he'll hire me. I also wonder if he'd let me refer to him as The Hebrew Hammer.

Actually, with all due respect to Blue, I think Jon Stewart is the Hebrew Hammer -- but, as he pointed out, the real explanation for why he went after Goldberg with such verve was antisemitism.

Actually, what I love about Stewart is his way of cutting right to the heart of a matter. It would take me some time to get over Goldberg's hypocracy in posing as a "conscientious objector in the culture war" when writing a book attacking 97 liberals and three conservatives (one of whom shot an abortion doctor). But he got right to the meat of the subject when he commented that most of the cultural types he was attacking had no real power and were therefore unable to "ruin" the country.

Sometimes it's hard to find a reason to bother.

SMM, are you forgetting a comma, by any chance?

selfmademug · Post by **selfmademug** » Fri Jul 22, 2005 3:33 pm

Well I make as many typos as the next poster but I have no idea which comma you might mean, sorry.

bambooneedle · Post by **bambooneedle** » Fri Jul 22, 2005 3:37 pm

Just wondering if you forgot a comma.

Did I forget a comma at any point in my life? Yes.

I think I'm more worried abut you now that I know you're NOT stoned....

bambooneedle · Post by **bambooneedle** » Fri Jul 22, 2005 3:50 pm

Oh I forgot plenty.... Matter of fact, I AM stoned.

Crikey, dude, you're more thought than I stoned you were...

I'm only mildly stoned now luckily. It's 6.45 am.

I want to write a song called "I Got The Short Bus Blues" but I'm afraid it will pigeonhole me as a novelty act.

If you find yourself walking a mile through a deserted part of the city, alone, in the middle of the night, in 3-inch heels, it's impossible not to feel like a hooker. A rather lonely hooker, at that!

As someone who finds himself looking towards the Fox monitor almost against his will at the gym and then mutterling loudly and being forced to apologize to whoever's on the gizmo's next to me, I feel your pain.

You may find some solace here: http://www.sweetjesusihatebilloreilly.com.

Also, if you can find the sound file someplace, Al Franken had a contest of readings of O'Reilly's infamous alleged naughty phone call as performed by musicians, impressionists, etc. One of the guys really nailed O'Reilly's on-air speaking style and it was pretty hilarious to hear it in a would-be sexy context. Sure, maybe it was low blow, but O'Reilly is the king of "dish-out-it-out-but-can't-take-it" so it's all good clean fun, as far as I'm concerned!
