The illegal immigrant.

They are hard-working creatures indigenous to this nation in great numbers due to our own particular ruthless brand of capitalism and, like the Founding Fathers, they risk...

This is the first time I can recall a Nobel Prize given out at a backhanded compliment.

How big is the China/Rio Tinto story over there? I can read the papers, but is it being reported heavily, is it business news or do you not know what I'm talking about?

It started promising, but too meta too early. You've got to give these kids enough rope to hang themselves with. Only instead of rope, you give them a string of Christmas lights, so the whole...

Huh, I wonder where they got that idea. (Check out "Classic Quotes" for the best of the best)

You found the flaw in the logic, you just didn't complete the circuit. Here's an account by someone who didn't really think waterboarding was torture, so he decided to try it on himself. Would that...

Dude... the worst part is to read your idea in an acclaimed new book and be all like "That was me! ME! That was totally me!" Fuck you, Thaler and Sustein, fuck you. All it took was seeing the...

Eh, I don't know if that's the best analogy for an event so tragic and costly. In that scenario Stephan would surely die, but everyone else would survive without a skratch.

/God help me, 'cause I...

Wow, I thought about that, then I thought "Oh, but he just goes to school there, so he's home for the summer". Christ, I guess the school year now ends with basketball season for me (congrats on...
