George Bush on the Economy: “Wall Street Got Drunk”
[ Comments Off ]Posted on July 23, 2008 by admin in Politics
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008Off the record, the president shares his latest economic theories.
Well, if that isn’t the proverbial pot calling the kettle black. If you watch this exclusive clip (he thought all cameras were off) you’ll get to hear Bush joking not only about Wall Street getting drunk, but also joking about how rough it’s been for him being on government pay for 14 years. Gee George, if only all the rest of us had to suffer a $400,000.00 yearly salary, free luxury housing, private air and ground transport, and full time security teams, as well as access to virtually anything else we want in the world, we could join you for a chuckle. To see some excellent clips of George himself being drunk, check out this YouTube compilation. Or this one to see where it all began. My suggestion for the new 2008 GOP slogan: “Ish thuh ick-onomy, shtoopid….”
Clover Coffee Machine: For 11 Grand IT Should Wipe ME

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008Can the $11,000.00 Clover 1s coffee machine save Starbucks?
In spite of the meticulous engineering, net-connectivity, and overall coolness factor, there is NO WAY I would buy an eleven-thousand-dollar coffee maker that requires me to use a wire whisk and wipe the machine top as part of brewing my cup of coffee. For $11,000.00, it should whisk and wipe ME. Apparently Starbucks doesn’t feel the same way. Never mind the machine, they bought the company. Can it help them as they go down in flames? Do we care? Learn more about the Clover Coffee machine in this YouTube video, in which Le Gourmet TV stops by the Clover Coffee Company in Seattle.

Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008In these hilarious, slickly produced YouTube clips, you’ll learn that even the Creator of the Universe has bad days.
If you missed Mr. Deity back in 2006, it’s time for you to meet your maker. These simple yet slickly-produced shorts are one of the reasons I love the evolving world of streaming video. In episode one of Mr. Deity, the creator of the universe and his assistant are wrapping up creation and deciding how much evil to keep in the design, so as to maintain free will as part of the plan. Assistant: “Holocaust, Torture, and Downe’s Syndrome…those three alone…make it kind of hard to believe in you…throw in a hard winter or two, NO-one’s gonna believe in you…” Check out the rest of the episodes here, and read the interview with Mr. Deity on Crackle.com
Old People Are Fun

Friday, July 18th, 2008The Beige Site. For everything you need to know about old people.
If that headline intrigued you, either get out your reading glasses or go to View>Text Size and click “increase”. There. Now that you can read this, I just want to make the observation that you never see stuff about old people on the web. Why? Well, the web is for young people, and young people, for the most part, are too busy friending people on MySpace and watching bottle-rocket-in-the-butt videos on YouTube to be bothered about silly things like old people. The problem is, someday you’ll be old, so you better learn about what it means. The Beige Site contains a wealth of information about old people, including: what is an old person? where can I find one? and how much does one cost ? Not sure if you’re an old person? Then take the test .

Friday, June 20th, 2008Mark Wahlberg’s thingy really shines in this Boogie Nights/Star Wars Lightsaber Mashup
I’m a big fan of a good mashup (I loved the re-cut of The Shining trailer), but I was never too taken with the Star Wars lightsaber genre, until this one. Check out the Boogie Nights Star Wars Lightsaber Mashup below. Starring Mark Wahlberg’s thingy in an encore performance. If you’re not familiar with the genre, just search YouTube for “lightsaber”, or check out VideoGum’s 10 best Lightsaber Mashups.
