Don’t go into corporate America. You know, become teachers. Work for the community. Be social workers. Be a nurse. Those are the careers that we need, and we’re encouraging our young people to do that.

I guess it’s a good thing that our politicians are immune, for the most part, from lawsuits. Some of the things they do (or say) can be proven to have resulted in some real damages.
One of the themes of this year’s presidential election is “The Economy”. The economy is sliding into recession here, [...]

It now remains for the U.S. government to set a sensible example to the world by offering a bonus or yearly pension to all obviously unfit parents who allow themselves to be sterilized by harmless and scientific means.

That’s how I always started off my after-school video production class speech.

Despite the sensational rhetoric, very few people seek to pollute. It’s not good business and all of us want clean air and water. However, when we get sucked into eco-panic, cooler heads seldom prevail. That hysteria costs jobs, and sometimes lives.

Not all films did as well as Juno, obviously. The films that were made about the Iraq war, let’s face it, did not do as well. But I am telling you, if we stay the course and keep these movies in the theaters, we can turn this around. I don’t care if it takes a [...]

So much for the Oscar ceremony nobody watched. Let’s be honest, Hollywood could care less. The sponsors lost money, but the network got paid, the production crew got paid, and the celebrities got more of the attention they crave.
