old men

I was at the mall the other day eating at the food court. I noticed an old man watching a teenager sitting next to him. The teenager had spiked hair in all different colors: green, red, orange and blue.

The old man kept staring at him. The teenager would look and find the old man staring every time.

When the teenager had enough, he sarcastically asked, “What’s the matter old man, never done anything wild in your life?”

The old man did not bat an eye in his response, “Got drunk once and had sex with a peacock. I was just wondering if you were my son.”

fox news

I have a problem with fox news and to celebrate it i'm going to show you some of the best fox bashing from the daily show. Fox claim that their coverage of events is "fair and balanced"

this clip is one of my favourite so we'll start with "why he fights" a look at former secretary of defence donald rumsfeld

this was not the way my mother would have reacted

congressman talks about why they permitted the first bailout, there was already a run on the banks and the world economy was collapsing

yeah so nothing particularly amusing but he comes right out on c-span and tells us that the bank run had already happened, the good stuff starts about 2:10 into the video.

Apparently though i don't have the video, the treasury secretary Hank Paulson told congressmen that if they didn't approve the bailout the government would have no choice but to declare martial law. ouch

update: here's a link to the martial law video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaG9d_4zij8
