Another pointed Special Comment from Keith Olbermann. (wmv/qt)

Well, it finally happened. After months of telemarketers with Indian accents offering me long distance service (apparently because I am more likely to buy from a person with an Indian accent?), finally, just now, it has reached it's logical conclusion: telemarketers that just start out in Hindi.

I do not speak Hindi. Except, perhaps, the dramatic "NA-HEEEEEEEEE!" I've learned from Bollywood films. Somehow, I doubt it'll work, though; "no" hasn't ever worked before...

Good burn Ngz...

John Hodgman on his upcoming second book of trivia, in comparison to his first:

Yes, it will be more of the same but considerably longer. My only regret with the first was that it was not so physically massive that it inspired real concern for my sanity. I hope to change that with the new book.

I don't like coinage. We've made all this progress. I don't need to go back to the goddamned Roman times.

That's time for ya. It's not going to stop for anyone.

how the fuck is it the last week of september? i have WAY too much to do all of a sudden, and my first midterm is NEXT WEEK.

Do it! Survive! Then Do it Again!

I hear those relationships can be confusing. Really she is in the buisness of creating false emotions so that she can extract more money from you. Not saying something could not happen but both of you'll have to work thru many layers of emotions and issues before something can happen. You have to prove to her that you want to actually know her, you're not merely infatuated with her looks. She has to accept that a person that just saw her naked actually wants something more from her then just her looks. Then there is the social stigma you both have to face when you tell your parents and friends that you are going out with her. Sure some people will accept it but some may not. A little too confusing. To quote a character from a Louis Cha novel: "The prettier the woman, the more trouble she will be."
