US economy is in scary shape, no matter what Hank Paulson sez

@Niten, thank you for providing the argument for why the BLS unemployment statistics are useful. However, they still underestimate because they fail to account for those who want a full time job but have a part time job, and those who are qualified for a better job than what they have, but need the money from their current job. These are two groups that have grown dramatically in recent years, but which don't show up in the basic statistics that most news organization throw out.
The lesson here - take every statistic you hear with a grain of salt. Take every statistic you hear from a politician with a pile.

Johnny Rolston represents the awesome creepiness of New Hampshire. Very few people can get away with 'not speaking Chinese' as well as he can.

Art film of zits being popped

Please, someone, anyone, tell me that those were not normal zits. That the subject of this film had some incredibly rare, but incredibly horrible disease that made his body produce such astonishing amounts of sebum. That can't be normal... right?
