    This could only be more interesting than your average work day if you are already dead.

    There's something really amazing about Australian satire. I still recall fondly the series they put out before the Australian Olympics - "The Games". When they suggested making the yellow ring in the opening ceremony out of leashed bees, my dad and I just howled. So hilarious.

    @Pope John Peeps II: Here's the bees clip: [www.youtube.com]

    And this is a clip of John Howard apologizing for aboriginal mistreatment. Skip to the last 15 seconds for maybe the world's greatest punchline. [www.youtube.com]

    Saw this yesterday. I am intrigued, especially by the early advertisements.

    Watching the Australian version of Mad Men there, one is compelled to believe that their 1960's were more like our contemporary times than previously thought. Could use some more Joan though.

    Is there any activity on Earth to which this statement doesn't apply?

    "The annoying guy from Scrubs..."

    You're going to have to be a lot more specific.

    I kid, I actually do like the show. I find their annoyance oddly charming.

    The audio's slightly off, but at 3:45 you'll see Oliver Stone's best contribution to cinema in the past 16 years.

    Pareene should write at least one episode of this Oliver Stone secret history. It would be alot funnier and might land him a full time job on the next season of Futurama, if any.

    The simple truth is that Michael Moore was much cheaper to buy out.

    Cut to a distant, grainy photo of my indifference in a snowy field next to a tree devoid of leaves, a farmhouse in the distance. Pan slowly toward my indifference until it takes up the width and height of the screen while the music swells, making viewers feel either warm, fuzzy and jingoisitc and they all run out and buy Hummers.


    PS: Not the cool $100,000 Hummers that soldiers and rich Corsicans drive, but rather the cheap-looking tacky ones driven by schmucks.
