After finishing Dreamfall tonight I was left with a empty feeling, the kind that can only come from being really excited about some resolution then being left hanging. Please don't let it be another 6 years before we get past the halfway point in the plot. I mean, at least The Longest Journey felt reasonable self-contained. Dreamfall just cuts you off without even answering half the questions it poses.

All this just after watching the Lost season finale. Come on guys! You're driving me nuts!

Stephen Colbert Roasts at the White House Correspondents' Dinner

Throw away your TV Video Archive

This is beautiful. Colbert stands up in front of George W. Bush, the White House Press Corps, Supreme Court Judges and any number of influential government figures and tears them down. There's barely a laugh from the crowd but that's not exactly suprising. And as if the performance itself wasn't good enough there's a video after where Colbert 'Auditions' for the job of White House Press Secretary resulting in the most hilarious use of Helen Thomas in anything.

Mr. Colbert, you have balls of steel.
