Well, this appears to be getting all manner of publicity. There were two segments on ET about it tonight. When I flipped past it at the beginning of the hour they were talking about it and when I flipped back at the end of the hour, there it was again.

They're talking about it on talk shows, saying his career is over. Though, as has been pointed out, it pretty much was anyway. Not like he ever needs to work again.

There was another segment on CNN today. I didn't catch much because I was in the middle of the book "Patriot Games". Something about the African American community not accepting his apology or something. Oh well, I wouldn't have accepted it either...

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change.
The courage to change the things I cannot accept.
And the wisdom to hide the bodies of all the people I had to kill today because they pissed me off.

Remember when your parents told you it's dangerous to play in traffic?

That Letterman piece was torture to watch. Excruciating, he looked like a deer staring into headlights.

What I find disturbing is that there's still so much racism towards African Americans in this day and age. We should've done away with that kind of prejedice years ago.

We should have, yet prejudice is somewhat a part of human nature so it will never truly be erased.

That is oh so true. And probably one of the reasons the human race is doomed.

No. Just one culture.

Yes, yes we know.

Edit: I think that one culture business is also human nature.

I like the fact that they even put in a girl to voice her dislike close to the camera at the same time as in the original. She's like a minicelebrity now.
Also, the way santa pronounces the m-word.
