Big Three won't get much sympathy if the keep doing crap like this

Apparently the big 3 are still traveling in private jet style:

Wagoner’s private jet trip to Washington cost his ailing company an estimated $20,000 roundtrip. In comparison, seats on Northwest Airlines flight 2364 from Detroit to Washington were going online for $288 coach and $837 first class.

After the hearing, Wagoner declined to answer questions about his travel.

Ford CEO Mulally’s corporate jet is a perk included for both he and his wife as part of his employment contract along with a $28 million salary last year. Mulally actually lives in Seattle, not Detroit. The company jet takes him home and back on weekends.

Hot Pockets!

Jim Gaffigan does a hilarious bit on Hot Pockets. Hot Pockets are sold by Nestle. What should really not be much of a surprise is that Hot Pockets are a joke foisted upon us by snooty Europeans.

I haven't had a Hot Pocket in years, but they used to be a regular staple in my teenage years.

Dan Savage is also quite funny

We all know this of course, but here's video proof: Savage on Colbert (that sounds naughty)

That Obama guy is pretty funny

I'd like to have a beer with this guy. That doesn't actually mean much, as I've been saying this about Al Gore as long as others have been saying that about W. Still, this is hilarious.

(warning, if you don't know who the hell Rahm Emanuel is, well, it's probably still funny)

Not what I expected

Some of you know that I've started playing golf. If you know me well, that means one thing - you know I've turned into a complete golf geek. In other words, I set my DVR to record golf instructional shows. You can roll your eyes here, but you're far behind my wife.

Anyway, I'm watching me some golf lessons, and it's one of these deals where a golf pro gives somebody famous a lesson. So far, the famous people have all been actors. I'm watching an episode with Don Cheadle, whom I like. He starts out the show with this great bit, "the 5 Stages of an Actor's Career:"

1. Who the hell is Don Cheadle?
2. Get me Don Cheadle.
3. Get me a "Don Cheadle" type
4. Get me a young Don Cheadle.
5. Who the hell is Don Cheadle.


I laughed my ass off. I'm sure he didn't think of it, but it's the first time I've heard it.

Jim Gaffigan called it

Well, almost.

I've been on a picture kick, why stop?

This brought a smile to my face

Read today from a blogger I like, Tim Fernholz:

From an Obama-Biden transition press release:

This morning, President-elect Barack Obama will attend parent teacher conferences at his daughters’ school with his wife Michelle.

I'm not sure if it's awesome or terrifying to be those teachers.

Why I don't watch TV news

Watching TV news is pointless. The pundits are wrong as much as they are right. Which isn't important anyway, because you don't actually know when they are wrong or right, so it's all useless knowledge. For an informed user, you might know when they are wrong or right sometimes, but when you see them get it so spectacularly wrong, you wonder what purpose they serve:

Campbell Brown: For those people who have been worried about the possibility of one party controlling Congress and the White House, the last president to do that, of course, was....?

John King: Ah, that was Bill Clinton, and...

Brown: Jimmy Carter! Jimmy Carter had... Bill Clinton had Democrats in the House and in the Senate?

King: Very briefly.

Brown: Very briefly. [Crinkles her nose] Didn't go so well.

King: No it didn't.

You have to be kidding me? The Republicans were in control of the House and Senate just 2 years ago!
