Whatever it is, and whatever quirks and contradictions I’ve observed, nothing prepared me for the rogue wave of hubris that crashed onto the talk show shores last week as Al Gore, rising like Poseidon from the sea, graced us with his latest global treatise, a 592-page tome entitled simply “The Future.”
Now honestly, even Edward Gibbon limited his immortal history to the specific decline and fall of the Roman Empire. And it’s hard to imagine those industrious chroniclers of Western civilization, Will and Ariel Durant, embarking on a quixotic compendium to explain “The Past.”
Then again, the restraints common to common men have little hold over the latter-day Prometheus who launched the Internet age and set the Tesla of Tantrums, Keith Olbermann, on the glide path to oblivion, two advances for humankind that were unthinkable just a few years ago.

Just what is Keith Olbermann doing these?
Aside snarky commentary on Facebook, I haven’t seen much of him.

I wonder if he tried to get on with al-jizzya news?
Al Gore, Nuff said. Al gore will become synonymous with Don Quixote! My mistake I meant Sancho’s Ass.

Everything is relative. How bad can things really be when you have upwards of $100M in the bank?
It’s 200M now.
Try upwards of $500M. The man is a genius to have amassed that wealth, using nothing more than voodoo, from unsuspecting moronic contributors....
Must have been on orders from either al-NBC, his employer and competitor of A-J, or his agent.
As for Algor, I'm sure he's already forgotten critic one, critic two, critic three, and of course, critic four.
Another unimportant detail which I already wrote about once, is the question of who wrote the book and if Goron actually read it. You might recall that when Ivana Trump published a novel under her name, the media were happy to discover and inform us that she hadn’t even read it. When Hildegarde Rodham “wrote” a book, it soon turned out that she didn’t write it, and that the author was some fanatical ideologue activist woman. But the media weren’t as much interested in that story as they had been in poor Ivana. And now? Who wrote it?
Iceberg Melting BUMP.
Thanks dynachrome. G’night.
