Quote of the Year:

Ben Stein is my hero:


“Fathom the odd hypocrisy that the government wants every citizen to prove they are insured, but people don’t have to prove they are citizens”.


If you've never seen Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed, you should! It is well worth your time!

Stein is one of my favorites as well. One of the reasons I like his work is that he actually took math classes in college. I hope that doesn't make me a math snob, but I just feel more comfortable when I know a speaker isn't basing his or her words on the idiot babble from the other side of the university, i.e., social studies, radical/critial racial theory, etc.

Odie: You'll like it. I really should re-watch it myself; it's been awhile.

Cube: You math snobs. ;)

I'm willing to bet that you all read this quote in Stein's voice, too.

I've always liked Ben Stein. He has a sharp way of getting to the truth.

He is most famous for teaching Ferris Bueller, but in reality just about everything Ben Stein says is quite educational.
