WOW. The Soup, a show on E channel
that does satire of show biz, just did a segment where they spliced Curious George with Bush clips. They were calling him a monkey the whole time. Damn that was funny, and a bit surprising as to how "in your face" it was. Times are a-changin.

1. Jon Stewart used to host The Soup for a while, if I am not mistaken.

Honed his chops there, so to speak.

3. I think he had an MTV show but I've been watching
The Soup for a while, it was Talk Soup earlier. You could be right though.

5. The best part about "The Soup"
Is that you get to sample how horrible TV is, without really watching any of the shows.

:D

6. VH1 showed the film clip thise weekend of blivet**
giving the "bird" to the camera from a few years ago. I never realized there was audio with that clip. It should be on the vh1 site now too. One of those wacky video shows. the "vj" laid him out in spades when he showed it. :)
