2 tigtog July 22, 2008 at 9:50 pm: No, but I did a quick google – this one about the mascots?
3 Shaun July 22, 2008 at 11:00 pm: I saw a spot with Kristen a few months ago (can’t remember what is was). I had no idea she was from Conchords but thought she was really good.

Glad she seems to have a more regular spot now. A very worthy addition to the list of correspondents.

Oh and Sam Bee should for the Democratic/Republican conventions in August.

Random Quote

Human beings never think for themselves, they find it too uncomfortable. For the most part, members of our species simply repeat what they are told?and become upset if they are exposed to any different view. The characteristic human trait is not awareness but conformity, and the characteristic result is religious warfare. Other animals fight for territory or food; but, uniquely in the animal kingdom, human beings fight for their 'beliefs.' The reason is that beliefs guide behavior, which has evolutionary importance among human beings. But at a time when our behavior may well lead us to extinction, I see no reason to assume we have any awareness at all. We are stubborn, self-destructive conformists. Any other view of our species is just a self-congratulatory delusion.
