...joke," said Arizona Senator John McCain. "This is the most incredible markup I've been to in my years in the Senate and in Congress. I suggest we not move forward until we have some provision on how we're going to pay for it." New Hampshire Republican Judd Gregg added that he didn't know who had written what he had seen of the bill, "but if it had been Rube Goldberg, Ira Magaziner [the architect of the failed 1994 Clinton health-care plan] and Karl Marx, you might have gotten this product...
...that most people would sign up for state-based private plans, which would be able to pool more effectively to keep down costs. It's the only plan that's been scored by the Congressional Budget Office as deficit neutral, and it lays out a more comprehensive approach. Senator Judd Gregg, the top Republican on the Budget Committee, also recently laid out a proposal that expands private health-insurance coverage; and Senator Mike Enzi, the top Republican on the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, has said he too is working on legislation. Some of the bills aren...
...other words, revels in being the outsider, the underdog, the geek. (Jay's signature bit, on the other hand, was "Jaywalking," where he went on the street to ask people news and history questions and made them look ridiculous.) This is both a defining Gen X trait - think Judd Apatow's movies and Beck's "Loser" - and a sensibility suited to the 12:30 p.m. Late Night, the slacker sibling to The Tonight Show. Some doubters wonder if that can translate to a broader 11:30 audience. By promoting Conan and moving Jay, NBC is betting that this broad audience...
...third consecutive action comedy with at least one prehistoric beast. In two weeks, Jack Black and Michael Cera will play the dino-comedy card again with Year One. Sony, the film's distributor, might want to reposition Year One's marketing to emphasize its pedigree as a Judd Apatow comedy (from which The Hangover was clearly spawned), and to sell the primitive wilderness that Black and Cera wander through as Vegas without the neon. And maybe the CGI techies could quickly black out one of Jack's teeth...
...sound like a new Judd Apatow movie (or an old Woody Allen one), but it's actually a commercial for beer - specifically Bud Light, made by the brewery that claims "the beer you choose says a lot about you." The ad never aired on TV, and careful viewers will note that all the sexual devices are blurred and the strong language bleeped. It was made to be consumed, as beer is, by people over the age of 21. But, like beer, it is readily available if you know where to look. And again like beer, it can make you laugh...
