Well that’s it for Colbchella folks. I’m putting my bid in for StePhest Colbchella ’013 – Down Under!! There is plenty of room in my backyard to host a rockin’ music festival. I’ll just tell mum and dad to turn the TV up cause I’m having people over. They will never notice a thing …

Pepsi. You know their motto? ‘Live for now’, which takes on a darker meaning if you insert a coma ‘Live, for now’.

Yes, the Enlightenment was a fascinating debate back in the 18th Century. About whether science and reason had a role to play in the public sphere. A debate to the Republicans, rages on to this day.

Now folks this dark choice goes beyond the Presidential race. Control of the Senate is also up for grabs. So Senate candidates are addressing what many voters are saying ‘Hey! Maybe we should stop holding elections’. Of course, I’m talking about appealing the 17th Amendment, which specifies that there be ‘… two Senators from each State, elected by the people thereof …’ It is the Constitution biggest mistake, if you don’t count the typo in the first draft that guarantees everyone ‘trial by Jerry’. He was firm, but he was fair.

By Senators who want to go back to the good old days were Senators were appointed by State legislators. It’s a process the Senate’s own website says was marked by “deadlocks”, “intimidation and bribery”. In other words, exactly as it is now minus all that stupid voting.

Why should I have to vote for my Senator? I already voted for my State Senator, he knows what I like. Let him order for me. It makes me feel pampered. You know, order me somethin’ nice, but remember I’m allergic to shellfish and black people.

Stephen: You look good on your back.
Wayne: Do you I?
Stephen: You do to. I’m guessing that’s not the first time you’ve heard that?
Wayne: Well it’s the first time I’ve heard it from you.
Stephen: Wayne, being in this capsule here with you, lying next to you like this, does this make me a groupie? It’s that what groupie means? You’re kind of grouped together in small spaces.
Wayne: It’s a term for people who want to have sex with you because they like your music.

Stephen: You have a six-hour song.
Wayne: We do.
Stephen: Who is that for?
Wayne: Well …
Stephen: Other than me, because I use it to make love. Obviously I have to put that on repeat.
Wayne: I, I like that. Wow that’s a lot of information.

You are also lucky to still be together as a band because she (Yoko Ono) will break up a band. She’ll break up any group of people. She was at The Daily Show briefly. That’s why Carell and I left.
