The letter “W” is sometimes pronounced as “Dubya” by many people from the southern half of the US.

“W” is the current US President’s middle initial.

“Btw, am I the only one who thinks that Zain Verjee is incredibly sophisticated and hot.”

I’d give her the sophisticated but I don’t think she’s hot. There’s a Indo-Canadian news/weather girl in Toronto called Nalini Sharma. I find her incredibly hot and sophisticated, I believe she’s married and even talks about her son (who’s school age) in those parts where the presenters start talking to each other but she looks so youthful and she’s incredibly attractive.

dhaavak’s postulate – “the overlap between the target markets of two similar organizations determines the separation in the two entities’s operations “.

What this translates to is that
bill O’Reilly == jon Stewart
Walmart == Whole Foods
Greenpeace == NRA
sierra club == oil patch
Pro-life == Pro-choice
hater 1 = hater 2
us == them

see also my little diatribe on “it’s not easy being green”.

Damn straight I’ve got a clear advantage on spelling bees by virtue of my name.

Meh, it’s all phonetic :p

While I absolutely adore the Daily Show, there’s always been this off-color edge to it (vis. race and gender) that I find disappointing at times, and it only became apparent to me during last year’s Emmys why: with one exception, it’s a white penis party.
