It is the month of August, on the shores of the Black Sea. It is raining, and the little town looks totally deserted. It is tough times, everybody is in debt, and everybody lives on credit.
Suddenly, a rich tourist comes to town. He enters the only hotel, lays a 100 Euro note on the reception counter, and goes to inspect the rooms upstairs in order to pick one.
The hotel proprietor takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt to the butcher. The Butcher takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the pig grower.
The pig grower takes the 100 Euro note, and runs to pay his debt to the supplier of his feed and fuel.
The supplier of feed and fuel takes the 100 Euro note and runs to pay his debt to the town’s prostitute that in these hard times, gave her “services” on credit.
The hooker runs to the hotel, and pays off her debt with the 100 Euro note to the hotel proprietor to pay for the rooms that she rented when she brought her clients there.
The hotel proprietor then lays the 100 Euro note back on the counter so that the rich tourist will not suspect anything. At that moment, the rich tourist comes down after inspecting the rooms, and takes his 100 Euro note, after saying that he did not like any of the rooms, and leaves town.
No one earned anything. However, the whole town is now without debt, and looks to the future with a lot of optimism…. And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how the United States Government is doing business today.
And if that doesn’t scare the Hell out of you then you are brain dead!
If you’re familiar with Leo Laporte, you’ll probably know hims as a calm and thick skinned techie individual. I have been watching his tech shows for a very long time now, From Tech TV’s Screensavers, to Call For Help. I have never seen him explode like this with another person before.
The whole thing took place on Tech Crunch when he was about to show off a new gadget he was asked to review. The Palm Pre to be exact.
This has become such a popular video that it has already made it to Keyboard Cat.
This is a simple case of a person under pressure and stress and has unfortunately made it’s way on camera. All Mike was trying to set up was that if it was a Free Palm Pre it might be influencing his review, but before Mike could finish setting up the whole thing, Leo lost his nerve and blew up on Mike.
Leo has since apologized for the incident at Tech Crunch on the post about the incident, and has also made the apology live on air also.
I imagine is very embarrassed about all this publicity because it’s out of character IMO. Just a case of somebody having a bad day obviously.
I’m not sure just how old this comercial is, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it. When I did I nearly split my side open from laughing so hard. This is hilarious!
A brother and sister’s moment of mischief when backs are turned and they are left to their own devices.The kids crank out a range of eyebrow dance moves to ‘Don’t Stop the Rock’ by electro-funk superstar, Freestyle.
While watching this video I was puzzled at the way these news people were speaking to this young fella. I started to say to myself that this has to be a Fox News show or something to do with Fox Television, as they are the only TV station that would actually talk down to somebody and make fun of others and get away with it.
Then I saw the Onion logo in the background and all was making sense.

A Mountie stops a driver for running a red light. The guy is a real jerk and comes running back to the officer demanding to know why he is being harassed by the Gestapo! So the officer calmly tells him of the red light violation. The “Motorist” instantly goes on a tirade, questioning the officer’s ancestry, sexual orientation, etc., in rather explicit terms.
The tirade goes on without the officer saying anything.
When he gets done with writing the ticket he puts an “AH” in the lower right corner of the narrative portion of the ticket. He then hands it to the “Violator” for his signature. The guy signs the ticket angrily, and when presented with his copy points to the “AH” and demands to know what it stands for.
The Mountie says, “That’s so when we go to court, I’ll remember that you’re an Asshole!“
Two months later they’re in court. The “Violator” has such a bad driving record he is about to lose his license and has hired a lawyer to represent him. On the stand the officer testifies to seeing the man run the red light. Under cross examination the defence attorney asks; “Officer is this a reasonable facsimile of the ticket you issued my client?“
Officer responds, “Yes sir, that is the defendants copy, his signature and mine, same number at the top.“
Lawyer: “Officer, is there any particular marking or notation on this ticket you don’t normally make?“ Officer: “Yes sir, in the lower right corner of the narrative there is an “AH,” underlined.“ Lawyer: “What does the “AH” stand for, officer?“ Officer: “Aggressive and Hostile Sir.“
Lawyer: “Aggressive and Hostile?“ Officer: “Yes Sir?“
Lawyer: “Officer, Are you sure it doesn’t stand for Asshole?“ Officer: “Well Sir, You know your client better than I do!“
The latest and newest game is literally out in the streets!
LOL! Can you imagine the over filled emergency rooms if this were actually a real game? LOL
Now I wish my PS3 was still working because I want to play Rock Band now after watching that.
I couldn’t begin to imagine how many takes it took to complete that video.
Obviously there is a lot of video trickery or photoshopping done in there. But it was still a fun video to watch.
Well, that’s it for today’s post. I have to go catch the bus to work. It’s one of them, Get home Late, get up early for work days.” No time to do anything.
