...ones who love Adam Sandler movies and we dismiss it. The archetype he portrays is so dead-on and pure and needed in our psyche. And when a really arty well-crafted movie does not resonate with them, they are sending you another message. You can say they?re stupid, but I believe in them 100 percent, and that?s what makes it easy. Every reaction to every movie tells me where the collective soul is right now. March of the Penguins tells me what?s still possible...
...beanbag chair and his moose head into the tidy little craftsman bungalow inhabited by his best friend, Carl (Matt Dillon) and his new bride, Molly (Kate Hudson). He means to be helpful, but continually screws up in ways that are meant to be funny, but are, in fact, so stupid and vulgar that I can't bear to write them down here. Suffice it to say that they generally involve bodily needs and functions that disgust his hosts - not to mention us, watching...
...list indicating hundreds of millions of federal dollars she has helped bring to Georgia since first elected in 1992. "She is a very, very smart woman," with "very strong and good political instincts," said Matt Towery, Georgia Republican pollster and former state representative.

...distribution and production costs, and you're up to 1.3 cents to make a penny, which freaks people out. That's because the U.S. Mint claims to make a profit, called seigniorage, on the difference between the cost of producing currency and its value. That, however, is stupid. Printing money isn't a means of profit; it's a means to inflation. If the U.S. Mint were that psyched about its penny profits, it would long ago have moved on to cranking out more $100 bills. Still, the fact that it costs more than a cent to make...
...would you boost Taiwan's economy? We need direct trade, transport and postal services with China. Without direct flights, it takes us six to seven hours to fly from Taipei to Shanghai, so we've effectively moved Taipei to where Jakarta is. Can you think of anything more stupid than that? We're very strong in R&D, design, incubation and marketing, but it's too expensive to manufacture in Taiwan anymore, so there should be a division of labor between Taiwan and the mainland...
