PARK CITY, Utah — The Motion Picture Assn. of America, the leader in the global fight against movie piracy, is being accused of unlawfully making a bootleg copy of a documentary that takes a critical look at the MPAA's film ratings system.

uh, sorry, meant to do this yesterday:

hell yeah! way to go Andy! kick those kids into gear.

Andy - hell yes! Glad that worked out well for you!

"Surgery is scary..."

Surgery isn't scary.

"I bet doubly so for a horse."

...oh, you mean from that side.



Stephen Colbert, as interviewed for The A.V. Club:

On truthiness:

Truthiness is "What I say is right, and [nothing] anyone else says could possibly be true." It's not only that I feel it to be true, but that I feel it to be true. There's not only an emotional quality, but there's a selfish quality.

On the absurdity of his character:

I find the branding that goes on in real news at times funnier than what I do. It's just so shocking to hear descriptions of [Fox Report anchor] Shepard Smith, you know: "Changing the world! He gives 110 percent!" Our problem is, there's no level of hyperbole that can be associated with me that hasn't at least been approached by the real thing.

On *cough* D&D:

It's an opportunity to assume a persona. Who really wants to be themselves when they're teenagers?

On "The Daily Show":

Remind me what The Daily Show is again?

On Phil Ken Sebben (from Harvey Birdman):

He's a high-status person who's actually kind of a fraud. Very fearful and insecure and vengeful to anyone who will question his authority. It's much like working for me.

"Today I got to see what intestines look like when they're pulled out of a horse's body cavity. Pretty cool actually. Diablo had surgery this morning because his small colon was twisted. He's fine now so barring any futher complications he gets to look forward to not being able to leave his stall for two weeks because of the gigantic gash running down his abdomen. And I get to look foward to calling my dad (who's in Hawaii with his girlfriend) and telling him what I just charged to his VISA."

Jess, I know we're going out, and I know I just talked to you today, but I just had to tell you... I'm glad your horse that just had surgery is ok, and that's really gross. Surgery is scary, I bet doubly so for a horse. Don't get any ideas about ripping out my colon or anything. It's not twisted.

Oh, and free comedy on Wednesday! Both Leif and I will be standing up and doing comedy at the Comic Strip again. If anyone wants to come see for free, lemme know. It's fun.

hellzzyesss. Right tha fuck on Andy!!!

NOOOO!!! The last Skyline was made in 2003! Um... not like you guys care but if this ever comes up in trivia you'll know the answer.

yeah i wish i didn't miss that Lewis lecture today.
in other news, cha-ching

and... in more disgusting news:
Pig farmer pleads innocent in serial killing of 27 sex workers

and... for those of you unfortunate in not being able to attend the Stephen Lewis talk today. You missed something phenomenal. Here's just a small taste of what he had to say:

"Human rights lie at the centre of a decent, civilized society."
"The struggle for the rights of human kind is the most noble struggle of all."
"The struggle against the violation of Human Rights is omnipresent and you should never give up."

"No clause of the UN Convention of Human Rights has been honoured, except in the violation of."

Uganda has 2 million orphans, that's 10% of their population. What would Canada do if 10% of our population was orphaned children? We'd be incapable of taking care of ourselves.

2005 is the first time, since the Cold War that the world has spent more that $1 trillion on arms. and less than a fraction of that on foreign aid.


"Why, in heaven's name, is one on this planet if not to improve the human condition?"

Minister Faust interviewed him in Vue Weekly too.
