funny hilarious country
I've been to Canada, and I've always gotten the impression that I could take the country over in about two days.
gay rights people
It's a travesty that people have forced someone who is gay to have to make their case that they deserve the same basic rights as someone else.
long-ago people political
You have to remember one thing about the will of the people: it wasn't that long ago that we were swept away by the Macarena.
done death-penalty lawyer
McVeigh's lawyer got him the death penalty, which, quite frankly, I could have done.
jobs heart guy
There are a hell of a lot of jobs that are scarier than live comedy. Like standing in the operating room when a guy's heart stops, and you're the one who has to fix it!
golf men guy
The Supreme Court ruled that disabled golfer Casey Martin has a legal right to ride in a golf cart between shots at PGA Tour events. Man, the next thing you know, they're going to have some guy carry his clubs around for him.
office nurse balls
It's not that the Democrats are playing checkers and the Republicans are playing chess. It's that the Republicans are playing chess and the Democrats are in the nurse's office because once again they glued their balls to their thighs.
careers trying want
You just have to keep trying to do good work, and hope that it leads to more good work. I want to look back on my career and be proud of the work, and be proud that I tried everything. Yes, I want to look back and know that I was terrible at a variety of things.
responsibility media political
I feel much more strongly about the abdication of responsibility by the media than by political advocates. They're representing a constituency.
moments your-mom
Here it is ... your moment of zen.
holiday years one-day
Yon Kippur. Greatest Jewish holiday ever. The Jewish day of attonement. You don't ear for one day, all your sins for the year are wiped clean. Beat that with your little Lent. What is Lent? Forty days of absolution. Forty days to one day. Even in sin you're paying retail.
giving overcoming kind
We could overcome the baser aspects of our nature... and give this planet the kind of caretakers it deserves.
home advertising wonder
In case you're wondering what we all do here during the commercial breaks, mostly we just sit around making catty remarks about the outfits you're all wearing at home.
nice way knows
It's nice to know that [God] can destroy us in a myriad of ways.
