I would pay to hear him read aloud. And the money would go to a good cause.

Ratings don't equal quality. Do you hear Billo or Hannity reading short stories on the air to end the week? No. it's nothing but fearmongering.

Love Keith Olbermann, MSNBC was stupid as fuck to let him go, Keith changed how politics in the media was, its not all right wing nuts anymore thanks to the great keitho.

"There's something wrong with her glands." I couldn't help but laugh.

I once had a library that I thought would pay for the kid's college. One of my most prized areas was Thurber. It doesn't get any better. This is such a forgotten treasure! It's like finding hundred dollar bills in you pocket. Thank you!

Loved it!

So good. Read this one again tonight...

I've never found one yet, but I still have this overpowering urge to hide in a box. Maybe it'll go away, maybe I'll be alright, maybe it'll get worse.  It's hard to say.

Nice for this week...

What "good cause" is that? Planned Parenthood?

Oh wait... 320 million of our dollars are going to that every year already.

He makes hiding in a box sound so darn wonderful. Keith is awesome, and Fridays with Thurber are awesome too.
