This video was posted by 60frames a site dedicated to creating and featuring original content. We all remember the Superbowl Bud commercial that this is based on. Wow! What a difference 8 years makes...
The market closed on it's low.

I posted a video on YouTube yesterday demonstrating what I think everyone is feeling. From my perspective this whole thing is overdone and the Bush administration is equally responsible.
The consistent dilution of the dollar since 2001 in a misguided attempt to level the markets internationally. Reinforced with a fear mongering strategy. Bush has lead through ignorance, over-reaction and intimidation and this ‘crisis’ is no different.
When anyone in the administration opens their mouth there is an immediate negative reaction by the markets. We have no confidence Mr. Bush.
No confidence in you or Mr. Cox or ,Mr. Bernanke or Mr. Paulson. They are consummate theoriticians. But they are fools. They have had multiple opportunities since July 07 to head off this crisis. They reacted too slowly and insufficiently. Now we face a greater financial catastrophe than me or my fathers’ generation have ever experienced.
There is no defending the practice of open greed and avarice by the powers that be in the financial industry. But your mishandling is tragic. You were distracted when you should have been focusing on the country.
There is also no defending the flaunting of the laws and regulations that were in place to protect the free market. The social Democrats felt they could use the power of the congress to force socialization of home ownership. They forced the free market to overlook obvious shortcomings of inferior borrowers. This created an artificial bubble in the housing market. Suddenly there were too many buyers and not enough homes. Suddenly a pauper could own a mansion. This was foolishness at its heart and we were all caught in it, all in the name of fairness. Social engineering through legislation is just as misguided from the left as it is from the right.
We will be making a choice between bad and worse this election. All I want to hear from the candidates is the truth. TELL THE BLOODY TRUTH! No more talking points! No more focus groups. No more slanted polls. No more partisan bickering. No more finger pointing.
Get together. Understand that you have created these problems. Both of you. Together.
Fix it, if you can.
Together.

[Beginning Title]
[Interior: Automobile driver is a young woman quite probably a recognizable YouTuber. She is yakking on a cell phone]
[Tight shot of Garman]
Garman: Turn left 3 tenths of a mile
Woman: And then he said that “you don’t really know” then I said ”nuh-uh” and he said…..
Garman: Please slow down. The posted speed limit is 30miles per hour
[The Woman oblivious, not paying any attention to the device]
Woman: and so he gave me this… [improv]
[A police siren interrupts her conversation]
Woman: Oh no! I’ll have to call you back. I’m getting pulled over. Damn [hangs up]
Garman: I warned you!
[The Woman sticks out her tongue at the device and pulls over]
[The Retarded Policeman walks up]
RP: Do you know why I pulled you over?
Woman: Because I was talking on the phone?
[playfully] RP: No.
Woman: Because I didn’t signal?
RP: No, but I’ll add that to the ticket.
Garman: Because she was speeding.
RP: Bingo! You win a cookie!
Garman: I don’t eat cookies
[Holding up a bag of cookies] RP: But they’re good cookies!
[The Woman looks stunned]
RP: Then you win a date with me Sexy-voice!
[RP responds to the Woman as though she is the one doing the talking. The Woman stares at the Garman as though it is the first time that she has seen it.]
Garman: I wouldn’t date you if you were Matt Damon
RP: Why not? Isn’t everyone f**king Matt Damon!
Garman: Aren’t you going to write me a ticket? I deserve a ticket!
[The Woman slapped back to reality] Woman: Hey!
RP: Well! If you really want one!
[The Woman doing her best to flirt despite the circumstances]
Woman: No! No wait. Isn’t there some way we could work this out?
[Confused] RP: But you said..
[Bargaining] Woman: No! I’m sure that we could work something out! How about…
Garman: …you give me that ticket and make it a big one cutie!
[The Garman does its best to add a little wink and wiggle.]
RP: Well, you don’t have to be so eager. Even SxePhil wanted to screw me rather than get a ticket.
[Exasperated near tears] Woman: No! I don’t want a ticket!
RP: Make up your mind! [Waiving his ticket pad]
[Chanting] Garman: Give it to her…er me! Give it to me!
RP: Well??
Woman: But I didn’t say that! It was my Garman!
RP: Oh! Really? I get it! You pulled me over just to make fun of me!
[There is a 3 way pause as the Woman, RP and the Garman all stare at one another]
Woman: You pulled me over! [Thinking better of her statement afterwards]
RP: And you think I’m stupid too! Why I oughta. [Balling up a fist]
Woman: No, No, I’m sorry to trouble you officer. [with a weak smile]
Garman: But???
[To the Garman] Woman: shhhhh! Or I’ll unplug you!
RP: Go ahead and get out of here. Stop by for some more cookies anytime!
RP: BYE!! [Waving as The Woman, knowing what is good for her, starts the car and drives off]
Garman: Turn right 1 tenth of a …..
Woman: Shut up you bitch.

I got an idea over the weekend for a script for an "Retarded Policeman" script. Anyone know if Greg at MediocreFilms takes unsolicited material? I would just like to see it made into an episode.

You know, I had to buy a url to support some of my more nefarious undertakings and decided that my YouTube persona was the best name to use. This is a place where I will engage in bitching, whining and general observations about stuff.
Stuff it seems is the thing of blogs and vlogs. We stick our collective fingers into the electronic wind and gauge where the stuff is flowing. Who is ranting and who is listening? Right now I'm quite sure that we both know the answer to that. But give it a minute and it will all change.
In the meantime have a look around. There is not much here right now, but give me a minute.
