1. He played the video 3 times I think.
And he called it a birthday gift on a non-birthday. And had a hell of a lot of fun with said gift.

3. I haven't laughed that hard in years
The entire show was incredible. Do a search here, they list links where you can watch. I dare you not to pee yourself.

33. Excellent show. Every segment
was well executed. I particularly agreed with all the over-the-top "miracle" rhetoric...and Jon's rebuttal.
And the Dukes of Hazzard feature was hilarious. (Cooter used to be my Congressman! Now I have Cynthia McKinney -- bless her).

19. More importantly he mentioned the torture pictures, IMHO
No one in the television news has touched this, cept maybe Keith, which I wouldn't doubt, but the Daily Show is watched by millions! Jon just broke the story for oodles of people that had no idea it even existed.

It was a great episode, one of the most informative in the last month.

One of the best episodes EVER!

He really had a field day!

2. Cover it? Dude, he danced and rubbed his nipples! (honest)
And that was only 2 minutes of a REALLY first-rate episode.
If you can catch it on rerun tomorrow, you really should!

28. Damn I tried to stay up until 11 and woke up with a start when it was half
over! I will make myself stay up tonight no matter what! And it's Friday so that will help.

20. O.K. Done! Here's the link to my page for both part one and two
Edited on Fri Aug-05-05 03:25 AM by Up2Late
Part One is Novak's meltdown, part Two is good too. I did miss the first few seconds when Jon said CNN gave him a gift today, and it's not even his birthday. But the rest is there.

In part two, Bill O'Liely tries to convince John McCain that Torturing Prisoners is O.K.

25. No problem, for everyone else who can catch the repeats
It's a good show to see all the way through, a solid :30 minutes of Late-night Comedy (22 1/2 for those with TEVO).

I think their's a replay at 7:00pm EDT, but after that, you'll have to wait until Monday, unless we get lucky over the Weekend.

They should have the rest of the show (chopped up into little bite size pieces) at: <http://www.comedycentral.com/shows/the_daily_show/index.jhtml> by the end of today.

26. Thanks Up2Late!
I can't get the video, but at least I could hear the audio. The bit about miracles was hilarious too!

36. What time do they show it (The Daily Show)?
Oh, and one more question please,

Q) Does it bother the people of Belgium that we call the Potato Freit "French Fries" (Chips, as the British call them)???:shrug:

38. 2.30 AM - but I did see it a couple times at 22.30;
as to your Q :

We don't really mind the french fries being called "french"; calling them freedom fries was an entirely different matter...

As anyone who has some empirical experience will tell you, THE best french fries (frieten as we call them) are found over here. Have a portion with some mayonaise (not the dutch sweet version) and ...mmmm...

Since the belgians, especially the dutch speaking ones (the flemish) don't have a big "ego" as a people, we don't "claim" the fries :-)

But looking for beer, chocolate or fries you definitely should stop over.

9. He opened with it, he closed with it
And he talked about it in between, including his guest, CNN science guy Miles O'Brian, who dissed Novak a couple of times himself, once with something to the effect of 'I don't know why he's still working there myself'.

14. Gotta love the Swamp Rat...thanks!
btw...When I saw Katherine Harris crying about her picture being "colorized" by the news media, I thought to myself...she hasn't been colorized until Swamp Rat gets ahold of her! hehe

15. Got a good photo of her?
:D

Actually, I need a more high res photo of Novak where he's making a weird face (if it can actually get any weirder)... the Google caches with the juicy photos seem to be missing lately. :shrug:

16. I don't have any, but some of the earlier threads about her
Had some great ones. Just thought I'd mention it, since she seemed perfect for you to do!! :lol: Probably some Novak ones too.

The clip was hilarious of Novak. Now I want to see the clips from Jon Stewart's show tonight, if anyone has a link?

17. Yeah, everyone knows that Swamp Rat RULES!
And as far as Ms. Harris, here's a shameless link to my opinion on the subject:

In the middle of another story, he even did an impression, pretending to throw off his mic and lumber away

There were times that I laughed so hard, I couldn't breathe!
