Al Roker, you cheeky monkey!

After watching a few episodes of the Today show, I have come to the conclusion that, at least since he lost weight, Al Roker is one cheeky monkey. Last week, a conversation was broadcast in which the cast was unaware their microphones were still on during a weather forecast. Meredith or another female cast member told Al to "keep it in your pants."

This morning, Meredith was discussing her desired super hero abilities when Al suggested to Meredith she should watch Heroes, which Matt described as "...ordinary people with supernatural powers."

To which Al replied, "Like the stripper who can do things in the mirror."

It seems Al is doing his part to wake up the morning shift censor.

"By Christ" David Letterman. Bless you Bill O'Reilly

I don't have any more time to concern myself with this issue right now, but I think the title says it all. Last night David Letterman ambushed Bill O'Reilly during an interview on the Late Show. Letterman's responses were uneducated, by his own account. You should view it for yourself. I do not agree with the Hammer of Truth on the issue, but I appreciate their posting the video. Watch it and decide for yourself.

You can read the comments at the bottom of the page and discover how I was kicked out by the libertarians. So much for that.

Minimum Wage Myth

Pointed out today by the CATO Institute's Daily Dispatch, Edward Crane wrote in 1999 in Minimum Wage Myth:

"Even better, why not repeal the Law of Supply and mandate that the cost of food, clothing, shelter and Yankees games be cut by 50%?"
