Regarding the Arizona public school that will be replacing textbooks with WiFi and laptops: Book snobs aren’t going to like it one bit, but it sounds like a great innovation to me.

The Regard! The Excellent forum! Thank you!
You keep bringing up suicide attacks in Iraq.
These attacks are mostly on Iraqi civil forces.
Why don’t you talk about the suicide attacks by Islamic radicals happening in Gaza, or India?
Those attacks aren’t targeting Americans, why not mention them?
Maybe it’s because you’re hell bent on misrepresenting the progress happening over there.
Instead of you criticism, just once I’d like to see something on your show that shows the good work happening over there, the schools, powerplants, and hospitals that are opening in Iraq. The thousands of jobs now available to ordinary Iraqi’s, jobs once reserved for Saddam’s bed fellows.
American sons and daughters are giving their lives for this cause, willingly, and all you’ve got is criticism and jokes.
I loved the ad at the end. I had to watch it a couple times. At first I was like “whoa, did that keyboard just attack that guy?”
Oops! Looks like I’m sleeping on the job again - should be “seven worDs you can’t say in kindergarTen”. I’ll try not to let it happen again (at least, until the next time)…
Wow, sexy and funny.
Me likey.
Let’s explore the possibility of suicide bombing as a vocation.
Regarding those London suicide bombers, I think they were just looking for work. If you’re out of work, why not take a high-paying temp position as a suicide bomber? But as it turns out, it’s not really a position with a lot of growth opportunities. I mean you don’t really see many old suicide bombers. The young never think these things through - much like a robot, being given orders with no thought to the consequences.
And to think all of this just because they lost their real jobs back in Qatar as camel jockeys to a bunch of robots. How’s the irony in that?
Here’s the story:

That NetOps clip had me literally laughing out loud. The rest of Steve’s interview had me chuckling too. excellent!
Josh,
Yes, actually, I do. We took out Saddam, an evil tyrant. Most Iraqi’s are grateful for that. And as they become more prosperous, they will gain the envy of their neighbors.
Ask soldiers who have been to Iraq if the majority of Iraqi’s want us there.
If you get the chance, ask an Iraqi yourself.
I’m not making this up.
I love it!
Good Morning
Amanda, your work is very good but using a clip with young kids saying the 7 words is beneath you. These kids are clearly being manipulated and used and we should do whatever we can to PROTECT kids not take advantage of them. Perhaps I sound like Dr. Laura but airing that segment was wrong.
Amanda, you are so damn hot in glasses! And without glasses! And funny as hell! Am I the only one that has trouble paying attention to what you’re saying I am drooling so much? Seriously Amanda, have you considered doing a pinup calendar or maybe if you’re really brave, you can do a scandelous sextape and then after it’s “released” or “stolen” you can get mad because it was “unauthorized”! I think it would be really big!
Sorry if I offended you Amanda! It’s just that time of the month for me and I had a bit too much courage…to be honest I was a little toasted when I wrote that. I am … well you know. I should control myself better. I do sincerely think you are one of the most beautiful, sexy and truly hillarious women in comedy/entertainment, and I wish you the highest success possible!
If you follow the story link (which seems to be down at the moment) to the original posting of “seven words…” and read all the comments, you can read what both parents of the children shown have to say about the video.
Hi Drew, I finally just saw this. It is not the words, it is the using of innocent children to deliver them. I believe that as adults we need to protect kids. I do not think that beacuse the parents may have said it was ok makes it ok. Many parents do very sick things to their kids.
What I ask is that when you have kids remember this and then ask yourself if you would want them to take the place of the kids in the film.
Overall, I do like your work very much, just not this choice.
