I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Politics Is the Entertainment Branch of Industry. C-SPAN's coverage of governmental proceedings is wonderful. Caution! Buffoons on the Hill! Wallowing in blabber and spew, regiments of ex-lawyers and used-car salesmen attempt to distract us from the naughty little surprises served up by deregulated corporate America.

If you want to get together in any exclusive situation and have people love you, fine - but to hang all this desperate sociology on the idea of The Cloud-Guy who has The Big Book, who knows if you've been bad or good - and CARES about any of it - to hang it all on that, folks, is the chimpanzee part of the brain working.

Stupidity has a certain charm - ignorance does not.

The bigger the cushion, the better the pushin'.

It's a despicable thing to share your personal inner torment for money.

Stupidity is the basic building block of the universe.

Ever try to have a conversation with someone on drugs? It just doesn't work.
