I saw this on yesterday’s CBS News Sunday Morning. It’s a bit on the long side, but it’s one of the best presentations of it’s kind I’ve ever seen. I defy anyone to watch it without shedding at least a few tears…
I have a really special treat for you today, by way of the Open Culture blog. With a little experimentation, and a lot of just plain luck, I’ve managed to figure out how to embed this unique video here for you to enjoy. Note that it randomly selects one of the 16 channels when you start it, but the design is so cool that you can jump from channel to channel without missing a beat! 😀
Check out this hilarious discussion from last night’s The Daily Show with Jon Stewart…
If you ever needed a reminder of why you should not eat food off of the floor, this “RidicuList” segment from last night’s Anderson Cooper 360 should be the absolute final word on that! 😯
Having a little fun, with last night’s The Daily Show with Jon Stewart… And all that wonderful “Government Shutdown” news coverage…
With the news once again being filled with crap about the debt ceiling and Obamacare, and I was so tempted to go off on a rant. But then it occurred to me that there’s nothing I could say that hasn’t already been said so many times before. So I thought I’d do something a little bit different instead…
Break out the Kettle Corn friends, because the following clip from last night’s Rachel Maddow Show is like a weird Right Wing Dingbat parody of Jim Carrey’s I’m Kicking My Ass! bit from the movie Liar Liar. And if that isn’t schizophrenic enough for ya, the “party of small government,” that nevertheless insists on government-mandated ultrasounds for women contemplating abortion, is now telling us we don’t need health insurance…
The amazing Salman Khan is the founder of the Khan Academy, a non-profit educational website he created in 2006 with the stated mission to provide “a free world-class education for anyone anywhere.” And even better yet, Khan Academy teaches a lot more than just math!
This report, from last night’s All In with Chris Hayes on MSNBC, just plain pisses me off. “Consistent with industry standards?” What the hell does that mean?!?! Sounds like “industrial grade” bullshit to me! Like some weird cross between a whining “We’ll be kicked out of the gang if we charged more reasonable prices!” and a strident “How dare you challenge the great American tradition of ripping off the consumer!”
Or does it? It’s not as if I’ve actually gotten any “wiser with age” myself…
