Oprah does not have a good sense of humor. On her radio show on Monday she showed her dislike of Rosie O'Donnell by calling her tasteless and confused and being exhalted that she wasn't on The View that day. I don't understand people's problem with Rosie. She is quite tame compared to other actors, comedians, news people yet she is polarizing.

boston legal, particularly allen shore, routinely argues for equality, justice, and freedom, in a way that is more effective than most politicans or "academic" writers. it should be required viewing.

Loved the Boston Legal clip especially the ending..."money back guarantee and thrown in a blender" too funny!

I love me some Captain Sulu!

is it just me, or is oprah's voice unaturally deep and raspy for her?

I love George Takei on Tim Hardaway. What a terrific way of saying "fu*k you" right back to him.

Rosie is a coward. She continuously puts others down, but can't take it when people do the same to her.
I can't speak for Oprah, but maybe she heard Rosie's bigoted remarks aimed at Black people. Rosie thinks she can speak for all Black people, because she's seen Black people on television. She is intellectually lazy, and is too much of an ass to do anything to become a better person.

Howard K Stern is truly the embodiment of Evil.
"This footage is worth money" indeed. Arendt was wrong: Evil is not banal; Evil is Bankable.

That clip from Boston Legal was excellent. An instant classic! I don't normally watch the show, but that was so well written!
Loved, LOVED, George Takei's PSA too! "I love sweaty basketball players!" ROFL!

Thanks Andy, I so needed these laughs today..

I agree with Moi's comment above. Howard K. Stern needs to start doing some penance for his two-faced, disingenous mock support of Anna Nicole. Stupid bastard was just trying to milk her like everybody else.

LOVE Boston Legal!

Any body else find it interesting that Faux News is covering this Anna Nicole situation 24/7??? I guess when the war in Iraq, the Presidency and all things Republican blow up in your face, it's time to put the spotlight on something else... or maybe the old, white conservative Republican Faux News owner Rupert Murdoch just likes blondes who go after rich older men, hmmmm...

Cory: Murdoch is married to a Mainland China-born woman, Wendy Deng, who is 38 years his junior. They tied the knot in 1999, 17 days after Murdoch divorced his second wife of 31 years.
Wendy, whose original name was Deng Wen Di, grew up in China but attended college in California and went on to get an MBA from Yale. Reportedly, she has since become so Americanised that she is now known as what the overseas Chinese comunity calls a CWASP, i.e. a Chinese WASP.
So, you're probably right after all: "Rupert Murdoch just likes blondes who go after rich older men"...
