"Africa is a Continent, Sarah Zach" (too stupid Sarah!)

There seem to be an infinite number of examples of Sarah Palin's stupidity, the latest brings to mind the quote "Africa is a continent Zach" (Courtney B. Vance to Bill Paxton) from the movie The Last Supper.

When the movie came out, my husband didn't want to rent it because it revolved around a bunch of left-wing, tree hugging, self-righteous, pacifistic, stupid "liberals" - but when you watch it, the end message is that extremists on both sides of the spectrum are dangerous.

I know that sounds preachy, but it's a actually great movie - very funny and cynical! Watch the trailer: The Last Supper.

Plus it has some fantastic artwork by the obscure artist David Ivie .

HBO Canada (too stupid it's taken this long!)

Finally!!!...HBO has come to Canada.

Albeit it's called 'HBO Canada'... And you can't get it as a single channel, only as part of a premium pay package like The Movie Network or Movie Central... And it's required to comply with the insanely stupid federal CanCon regulations and devote 25% of overall air time, and 35% of prime time, to Canadian content ...
But they promise the schedule will include the full HBO lineup.

So far I'm not disappointed. We spent the afternoon watching four back-to-back episodes of Real Time With Bill Maher. I'm not a Bill Maher fan by any stretch of the imagination, but it was pretty good. Bill, like Yellow Bear, is a cynic and loves to point out the stupidity of others. I absolutely laughed my ass off at this video clip.



(Keeping in mind that this episode aired right after McCain announced Palin as his running mate (hands down the stupidest move of his campaign), so this is joke is a bit old now, (and of course it's pre-Tina Fey) I found it funny as hell.)
