I like the idea of a website that just does one thing, and does it well. This might be taking it too far though: islostarepeat.com.

This won't last long. But while it does, peekvid provides a very simple interface to usenet videos hosted by guba. In other words, this is a bunch of illegally downloadable television shows being provided on someone else's dime. Enjoy.

Three Simpsons writers have science PhDs. What's so funny about scientists?

Jean: It's an even higher percentage on Futurama.

Cohen: We had quite a batch of scientists, if I can use the term scientist loosely to include those who meet the criteria partway, such as myself. Out of 12 writers, I guess we scientists [on Futurama] were a plurality, you could say, which is an annoying use of that word.

Jean: There's a mathematical structure to comedy when you look for the perfect line or natural expression for a joke. It's not a one-to-one correspondence but there definitely exists a similarity. Of course, I don't want to give the impression that you need a Harvard or math degree to write good comedy, but it's helped.
