Blog Entry 11 of 24 Another Home Office Inmate
Just another web consultant whose boss is a complete slave driver. But I take my revenge by reading - a lot - when he's not looking. I believe in the role of government to help improve society, but I'm fully aware of the dangers of entrenched bureacracy and the how money corrupts. I'm not so much a liberal as I am appalled by what passes for modern conservatism. And as the pendulum swings back and the left finds its voice and strength again, I'm ready to damn its excesses. "To you, I'm an atheist. To God, I'm the loyal opposition."

Hyperfunny Lewis Black
Contributed by: Ralph Dosser   on 8/7/2008

Lewis Black was on the Daily Show Wednesday night, riffing on dictatorships and hyperinflation in Zimbabwe. He showed a CNN news clip in which the reporter had spent $3 trillion (Zimbabwean) on two cans of baked beans and some tomatoes.

Black yelled: "A trillion dollars for baked beans? I didn't know they had 'Whole Foods' in Zimbabwe!"

OK, I've shopped at Whole Foods - more than once and on purpose - but I nearly peed my pants laughing.

Here's the whole thing (starts with an ad).

Lewis Black is a very funny man. The Daily Show deserves at least an Emmy award.
