    I agree with his underlying message:
    Why do we care so much about Paris Hilton.
    I could care less about who J-Lo is marrying this week.

    The news focuses too much on celebrities, and not even on the celebrities that we care about. Did you ever hear on the news about Al’s marriage? Not me. I had to find out online…

    How about that kidney bypass surgery that Al had last week?

    Why doesn’t the news focus on the stuff that matters?

    I was kidding about the bypass surgery.

    Another thing:
    Can someone please tell me how to save that video?
    It’s awesome, and I don’t want to have to depend on my internet to watch it again..
    and again…
    and again…
