You don't have to justify that. Public television is the shit. Almost as awesome as public radio, which is almost as awesome as public access television.

I thought it was cool, anyway.
You should read about Joseph Conrad. Ultimate badass.
For a few hours today, my new band was called The Muumuus. Sadly, this is no longer a reality.

One word at a time?
It's a good thing my hearing isn't all that great. Otherwise I might feel bad making fun of those without perfect vision. [/dickishness]

Change your board style to "ILF Green (Ugly)" so you can't see it?

That's messed up. But... I'd probably eat one of those if I got desperate - which I do every day around 2:00.
