The funniest part about this? Even Cardozo's not talking to Ralphie.
But seriously: how much do we have to pay to get Nader to dress up like a panda? This, I feel, is required.

Awesome is certainly one word. I... can't think of any others that are worth of this... this effort.

There's been some really funny gallows humor in the financial reporting of the last few days.
One article was a Q & A with readers where one asked the expert: "What should I do with my Freddie Mac shares"
His reply: "Your Freddie Mac shares aren't resting, they're at the bottom of the cage with their legs in the air. Prepare your portfolio accordingly."

I couldn't hear the audio over the roar in the airport bar, but I really wanted the parrot to shit on his head.

i had trouble with the audio too cyn. did he say it's time for meditation? i heard medication.
scraping almost over, then it's it's murphy's oil and old english. drug of the day: rum laced blue mountain coffee. i had to be sober with all my wits about me for so long. it was a bummer.
on the upside, no one is calling me chicken little anymore. waiting for the market to open for fresh horror. then i'll watch that clip again, read comments and LAUGH. it's the best we can do, and we do it best.

That clip is the bomb on so so many levels. It's not the parrot, or the parrot's name, or the sideview of Ralph the Thinker, or quoting Shakespeare. Or even the single cutaway shot, elaborately staged, of Ralph musing on dressing up as a panda.
No, it is the simple fact that Ralph Nader, crusader for consumer rights, is now both less clever and more batshit crazy than Mike Gravel.
