So has anyone else been paying attention to Hugo Chavez's recent rampage through New York City?
Jon Stewart had a riff last night on how Danny Glover met with the Venezuelan president in Harlem yesterday. After Chavez called Bush "the devil" in front of the entire U.N. General Assembly earlier this week. Thereby managing to upstage the visit of the Iranian president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Nice work, Hugo.

Furthermore, as the NYTimes pointed out today, Mr. Chavez's regret that he had never met one of his favourite American authors, now deceased, was a little premature. Because Noam Chomsky is not dead.

The NYTimes actually called Chomsky up and sent over a photographer, just to make this point.

Hee. this makes my week.
No, wait, this & the next post I write.
