What's Meredith thinking when she hands over a check?

#1 Post by nitrah55 » Fri Jan 16, 2009 2:31 pm

From People web site, posed 1/15:

"This is my lucky day: We had on a Dr. [Susan] Quilliam, who has just written a revised verson of the Joy of Sex, and I listened to everything she had to say very intently in our eight o'clock hour. And I have to tell you that, this evening, over the past few hours, as I have sat quietly in my chair, I've had 45 orgasms. And you could too. But that's not why I'm here tonight."

• Meredith Vieira opens her speech with a joke Wednesday night at the National Board of Review at Cipriani in New York.

I hope the joke landed better when she said it than when I read it.

Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

That's hilarious.

I look forward to my first opportunity to steal it.
