			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>According to the <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/17/arts/television/17kaku.html?_r=1&amp;scp=5&amp;sq=daily%20show&amp;st=cse&amp;oref=login">New York Times</a> Jon Stewart is actually in a four-way tie with Brian Williams, Tom Brokaw, Dan Rather, and Anderson Cooper as the most rusted name in news. Keeping in mind that the other guys host supposedly <em>real </em>news shows.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8230;Mr. Stewart’s frequent exclamation “Are you insane?!” seems a fitting refrain for a post-M*A*S*H, post-“Catch-22” reality, where the surreal and outrageous have become commonplace — an era kicked off by the wacko 2000 election standoff in Florida, rocked by the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11 and haunted by the fallout of a costly war waged on the premise of weapons of mass destruction that did not exist.</p></blockquote>
<p>Funny. But a very, very sad sign of the times.</p>

<p>A block off the square in Santa Fe you find Pasqual&#8217;s which feels like its been around since way back before they put the &#8216;New&#8217; in New Mexico. A breakfast quesadilla with eggs so organic that the chickens who produced them have better healthcare and retirement benefits than I do, washed down with and a good, smooth cup of coffee who&#8217;s beans were hand-picked by smiling children in Guatemala (and who&#8217;s healthcare package is only slightly less awesome than the chickens). Take your moral satisfaction, your full stomach, and your much lighter wallet, and go wander the square in the cool New Mexican sun washed daylight until margarita time.</p>
<p>Who&#8217;s sick of +100 degree days? This guy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When watched on television it looks very odd - like 16 bald men thrashing around in a pool for no apparent reason. Even when you get a close-up, the ear-protectors on their swim caps aren&#8217;t helping at all. Why is it even called polo, I see no horses ?? Horses in the pool would improve the spectator aspect of this game. That and chain mail. And swords.</p>
<p>Yeah, this sport kind of sucks. No way am I allowing any water-polo players in on my zombie plan, as they are clearly some of the weakest sauce of the summer Olympic sports.</p>
