Yeah, that's about exactly when I stopped listening to him. Listening to him talk shop with other comedians was always entertaining. But "serious" Joe is a whackjob, yes-man, and meat-head.

I stopped listening to him around the time that he signed to spotify. But I think that was coincidental. I just got sick of how he's such a nutter and a dummy -- even though I like many things about who he is and what he does.

I also started with U3, on an 8-bit atari. Played through U7.5 but passed on 8 and 9. I think the series probably peaked with U6.

It's ironic that the US modeled itself after the Roman Empire, because I truly believe that we are all witnessing the fall/decline of the American Empire right now. I would love to read what the history books in 100 years say abou

As I get older, my inner communist really starts to envy the European schedule (eg: France's 35h week and 6-8wks holidays). I spent the entirety of my career working in the US and Canada, and to me it seems that no more than 80% of our
