The best Odd Couple episode ever
March 27, 2007
Apparently, Our Resident Philistine has gone from saving newspapers to saving video. Loren Feldman gives him a memorable tongue-lashing. A+

If you ask kids about the future you'll get very infantile vision of future, I really hope that trend would at least slow down a bit.

I went to digg this because I thought it was hilarious. Then it occurred to me that I should digg Loren's site instead of this one. Here' the link to the digg if anyone else wants to pile on.

I don't know or particularly care who either Jeff Jarvis or Loren Feldman is. But I do know a jerk when I see/hear one.
Nick, you have interesting views and usually express them in a rational manner. Please tell us you aren't descending to the level of "discourse" you've pointed us to today.
Ever,
Marian

Marian,
I disagree.
No one in the world pronounces the words "ridiculous" or "Jesus Christ" better than Loren.
No one.
