How about a survey on what we want Amanda to wear on Casual Friday?
I vote for PJs :)
The jumping fish episode could serve as a good metaphor for what applications for a “Win a date with Manda” would look like, if there ever was one (bad idea). Or on a more mudane topic, what the comments section must feel like to Andrew and Amanda on a bad day. That one was worth clicking on and waching all the way through.
I’m such a nob! When Amanda reminded us that RB quicktime videos are interactive, I thought she was telling us that Arby’s had interactive QT vids as well! I had to rewind at that point…
Signed,
I love Chuck Heston (except for the part of him that is pro-NRA)
“I love Chuck Heston (except for the part of him that is pro-NRA)”
you love empty shoes.
I see those Fish jumping.
Nice V-neck.
You pulled out all the stops today Amanda, so how about a round of Cheney shooters for dem Rocketboomers out there!
The Cheney Shooter:
vodka, beer, 7Up, all peppered with a teensy weensy amount of tabasco birdshot
I think Chris should go hunting with Cheney. I think you guys are GREAT and I watch everyday. I had never seen the moon OR fish video before. NEWSFLASH- we’re not all internet video nerds. Sorry Chris.
Much love- Jen in Colorado
Read a great post about the “Rocketboom” expeirence on content producer Adam Elend’s blog, Queensbound Seven. I think he nails it!

Even Chuck’s shoes love guns. A cobbler told me that.
If you have to imply your sarcasm in parentheses you’re not doing your job right. Stephen King told me that.
Jen (in Colorado:) is quite right Chris: not everyone spend all his/her time on the internet and knows every little funny video.
Like Jen, it’s the first time I see this ‘moon’ video.
If you’re bored, watch something else … or on the opposite, try to stop watching the net, and meet real people.
Thanks for the fun RB.
Today’s memorable quotes are “…Washington is operating on 2% of the relevant information”. Well that explains how George W. thinks that going to war is a good way to win friends, influence people, and fight terrorism.
Lets hope that George W. someday gets the other 98% of the relevant information.
The other quote is “Excessive secrecy actually induces mental illness”. Well that explains much about Washington. But this really applies to Dick.
Dick, the next time you go hunting lawyers, speak up. Keeping your mouth shut and hoping no one will notice is not smart. It is not good PR to have David Letterman inform the nation of your newest hobby.
Honesty is always the best PR policy.
To everyone’s mental health…
amanda looked more powerful today, how can you argue with that??
If Google and Wikipedia reinvent Capitol Hill’s intelligence operations, I’ll have to give up my career path to sexpionage.
Amanda,
Oh yes, I fancied your look today - the capable professional look - Perfect to be cast as the Cryptologist, Sophia Neveu (Ron Howard, eat your heart out).
I wonder if there is a cooralation between your chosen look and other forces in the universe?
Otherwise, great information.
The so-called staged moon trip was always quite amusing. Usually it was the paranoind, anti Federal government, survivalist, living in Idaho, or Texas etc. with stacks of weapons who claimed it was all a hoax set up by east coast Liberals, like Ted Kennedy. I am sure you are quite aquainted these folks.
Have a great day.
Amanda, did you do something special today? You seemed to look extra good today.
I vote for glasses tomorrow, for old times sake.(And I have a thing for glasses).
Drake(another fan from Colorado)
My vote is casual Manda in jeans and hopefully a little dancing.
I think something’s wrong with your set-up Ryan, my MAC played all the Rocketboomtastic segments just fine. YeeeeEAH FOR MACS and Yeeaaah for Casual Fosse Friday…..
Much love- Jen in Colorado
NO NEED TO PICK ON DICK ‘CAUSE THIS WAS HIS SMALLEST MISTAKE.
Damned dirty Apes…LOL
Hey, I have an idea, let’s all smoke right wing crack on casual Friday in honor of DICK. C. (not mentioning any names)

Gawd! After watching Kevin’s Daily Dancer submisison you really begin to appreciate how good the Rocketboom homegrown product really is. Oh and people really shouldn’t still try to look like hippies if they were actually there in the ’60s. You’ll scare the kids
So if I see something I like, just click on the video for more, hunh? Well, I clicked on your picture but you didn’t show up!
What’s with that?? Now you’re running deceptive ads? What’s next? Politics?
Ok… It’s like this. You show up at my house and I’ll forgive you. Remember, I DID click on you cause I liked what I saw. So where are you?

Does anybody know what that fishing video was all about? And can you exceed your limit if you didn’t actually catch them? Maybe I could just claim that they popped in for a visit.
That really was a lot of fish, in fact there must of been one fish in the boat for each piece of birdshot that our Veep put in that old guy last week.
I’d rather go hunting with Dick Cheney than going driving with Ted Kennedy, or flying with Kennedy’s nephew!
Is there an “Averaging Life Force”? I played that game more than Gradius.
…and I vote for bunny ears. No reason.
Amanda…Love the show! (of course)
Please check this out, I know you’ll want it on your show. I wish I had one… it would make my job sooo much easier.

HI Amanda, John again…
I fell behind on my Tiki Bar Podcasts and just came up to date.
Was that you dancing in one?
Great moves
Lovely Heston vid! Wouldn’t it be neat to be able to do that with any movie?
Also, Snopes has the dirt on the jumping fish:
