Last night was great: Kentucky Derby Winner Mine That Bird, wearing a mink snuggie, watching restricted NFL coverage. Cost: $4.8 million.

Such is life.

Since when are corporations considered to have the same rights as individual citizens? Does a Corporation have a 2nd Amendment right to bear arms? If so, wouldn't it be subject to a background check to determine sanity? How about training in the proper and safe handling of firearms? Can a Corporate Charter be capable of hitting a target with a gun? Can a Corporation receive a death sentence, or be incarcerated? Waterboarded?

Do you guys read his blog? Its seriously some of the consistently best writing on the internet, bar none. For example: His reminisces about food Admitting his alcoholism, and experiences in AA (one of the most powerful columns I've ever read) His scathing, not so subtle flaming of Ben Lyons Some hilarious, sobering, and beautifully written shit and you're not likely to hear it from a more genuine guy. I think the loss of his speech has given him a renewed voice in writing.

It was a fun experiment while it lasted

Saturday is truly awful.

Yea, the mussels have really done a number. A lot of people remark on the clarity of the lake as if its a good thing. The truth of the matter is its a clear indication that the lake has really been devastated.

Closing the locks will do nothing this late in the game. Besides, all it takes is one numbskull to dump a bucket of them in the lake (which, for all we know has already happened).

Fergussen's show is absolutely fantastic. At first I just associated him with the Drew Carry character and never gave his late night spot much thought (I really didnt expect it to last). But after catching a couple episodes and starting to watch, I've walked away impressed. What he's doing really feels unique, and he really seems to thrive in the show's intimate setting. I especially like the quirky little "pre monologue" he does before the formal introductions.

I agree that current events comedy dosent typically hold up long. Im sure Stewart/Colbert will look dated in 15 years when theres a completely different political landscape (although Stewart has only gotten better w/ age). But Leno's current events stuff isnt even funny NOW. It dosent twist or turn it to a different angle, or shine a light on the absurdities...it's not biting. He brings nothing to the table. Its just cheap, cornball jokes. Maybe thats what people like about him. I just think its lame. And he's a godawful interviewer on top of it. He's completely incapable of having meaningfu

Its called Youtube. Good comedy stands the test of time (just look at the Marx Brothers, Laurel/Hardy, or Charlie Chaplin). I dont have to have been alive at the time to have an opinion. Again, if someone has clips of him while he was "funny", I'd be happy to check them out. And thats not even my point. For all I know he was the worlds most brilliant comic. But he's not now, and now is what matters. Leno's shtick is 15 years past it's sell by date.

I keep hearing people say this, but the few clips I've seen of him back in the day (i.e. on Carson in the late 70's) are just as uninspired as what he's doing now. Maybe he really was funny in his club days. The fact remains, the Jay people are clamoring over now is most certainly not that same individual.

Leno's brand of comedy has always been white bread, braindead garbage. Always has. Why millions of Americas still tune in to see tired played out cliches like Jaywalking or "headlines" is something I will never understand. The dude is NOT funny, and its an insult to the truly funny guys/gals working the club circuit who could blow him away without even trying. His sell by (assuming he ever had one) expired a LONG time ago. But judging by the top albums/movies/tv programs in this country, its obvious dumb is what people want, and until they wake up and demand better, its exactly what they'll ge

a post from the band he was beefing with, a couple days before his death: "He tried to attack us with a chainsaw after throwin around wads of money and burnin 20s and askin us if we thought he was a sellout but he was so fd on coke he couldnt even turn it on then he hit me in the face with a disco ball full of sand and cracked my nose open and kicked us out of his house after he invited us there to stay there and i was all bloody and my friends slashed his tires it sucked He was smokin coke out of a skull bong and freebasin and had 50 grand in his closet"

i wasnt by any means a huge fan, but i caught his set at pitchfork a couple years ago and thoroughly enjoyed myself. very sad.

Thats awesome. Now of course, you'd be applauding the computer.

This is pretty spot on

The mute button always makes me paranoid...you can never be TOO sure. I know some people who have had some awkward moments due to that.

I work for an internet marketing firm, so everything here is very tech-savvy and we're required to use the internal IM system whenever we're at our computers. Its such a different culture than my old job when that sort of thing would possibly get you in trouble. Everyone here brings their laptops into meetings and shit...Im kind of indifferent to the whole thing. The IMs are actually nice in that they seem to cut down on the number of massive email strings. At my prior job there was this one old school guy whose primary job as far as I could tell was to annoy the living shit out of those

He dosent, and he wont.

snore.

It was a one time thing as far as I know. 2 sold out shows at the Double Door for New Years Eve/ New Years Day.
