What the Hell just Happened? Seriously, what happened this week?


This week, we start off fun, talking about Simon's flying and recent acquisition of a new endorsement, a party, a Doobie Brothers concert and Greg's attendance at a Cohiba store event.
Then we start to get into the meat of the stuff:
We're being told the world is falling to pieces, and a lot of it seems to be manufactured. 
The debt ceiling BS is having stock market implications and the 24 hour news media is going nuts over it of course.
There's rioting in London, and since people there are no longer allowed to defend themselves, it's getting out of hand.
Where's the debt repayment from the bailouts?
The problem with 24 hour news stations.
Then we talk about bad drivers of course too of course.
Just think what fun the 24 hour news stations would have had if they'd even around in 1911, on the cusp of World War 1....they'd probably have started it in 1912 instead of 1914, and would have gleefully told the Kaiser what the allies were planning, all for the sake of a good story.
