Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
He goes on to explain how this will lead to a commercial collapse, at which point we are so very, very boned.
Yeah, that seems very possible to me (I've been following the peak oil stuff for a while now too. Although it's hard to explain, peak oil has pretty much made me stop driving.)
ION, my almond shrimp is nummy, except for the celery (celery is not food).
How far behind is Comedy Central?

They record at 5pm ET, right?
yeah ita, I found nothing, I was looking off the CM page.
My understanding of the financial crisis thingy is that, in essence, if the financial sector tanks it takes the rest of the economy with it, because every sector, governments on down, needs finance to grow. So no bailout probably equals a depression.
However! A government bailout means that the people who played fast and loose with finance (and I believe in this round it's more the greedy and the gamblers than the genuinely corrupt) can stuff up in monumental fashion and they don't suffer the consequences, not to the extent they should. And that just means that the next time the financiers catch a whiff of testosterone, they'll be beating their chests and declaring "I AM SPARTACUS!!" Or something like that. Because if it pays off, they're rich, they're the 300-pound silverback gorilla with their own harem and surprisingly tiny testes; while if it fails, hey, not their problem. The government'll sort it out. Which means that there's going to be another crisis, and it'll be worse.
The solution to both these pitfalls is to combine any bailout with improved regulation and oversight (I think transparency is a good place to start, let the markets know what risks the banks are taking), and to make sure that there's plenty of pain for the captains of finance who forgot in spectacular fashion that markets go down as well as up. I'm sure the current administration will get right on that.
The Daily Show is cracking me up....
Last thing that made me smile?

I haven't been that wholly impressed with the "superior" taste of organic fruit and veggies, and I'm not supposed to be buying organic on my jobless budget, but they were filed out of place.
Good mishap. I've been pathologically having cereal and porridge so I can put them in and it's nummy.
