HBO: Bill Maher: New Rules: "New Rule: Big, crappy airlines have to stop pretending to be cute, little airlines. First, Delta created Song, and now United has Ted. And Virgin has one coming called 'Slut.' You're supposed to believe that you're flying on an adorable little start-up, when really it's the same-old-same-old, except the stewardesses wear baseball caps. Plus, airlines are not among the industries I wish to think of as 'mom-and-pop' operations. As far as I'm concerned, the bigger you are, the better!

New Rule: Computers aren't for voting. They're for picking up under-age girls. Voting by computer sounds really cool and futuristic, if this were 1969. But now that we all have computers, we know that they are, in fact, huge fuck-up machines! They're like having a compact silicon version of Gary Busey on your desk. You never know what's going to happen. Well, I'll tell you what'll happen. Some 13-year-old hacker in Finland is going to hand the presidency to Kylie Minogue!

You thought the 2000 election was bad. Wait until the next one is decided by a customer service rep in New Delhi. "
