Ready for the game? 00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:12.000 <v Greg Tuculescu> Yeah, I'm just finishing up with my progressive kayaking friends. 00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:15.000 <v Alex Fernie> Progressive kayaking friends? On your computer? 00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:18.000 <v Greg Tuculescu> Yeah, I get America Online Huffington Post. 00:00:18.000 --> 00:00:19.000 <v Alex Fernie> What's that? 00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:29.000 <v Greg Tuculescu> You don't know? AOL bought the Huffington Post. It's very exciting. Hey, do you like keeping abreast of political, world, and entertainment news? 00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:30.000 <v Alex Fernie> Yes. 00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.000 <v Greg Tuculescu> And, do you like friendly chat rooms filled with horny Midwesterners? 00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:33.000 <v Alex Fernie> Well, of course. 00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:50.000 <v Greg Tuculescu> Then you're gonna love everything AOL HuffPo has to offer. Let me show you. AOL HuffPo will mail you an installation CD-ROM, connect to the worldwide web, and voila! You're ready for cutting-edge fervor commentary and masturbation. Everyone is doing it. 00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:55.000 <v Deborah Tarica> Finally! A merger combining my source of news with my grandmother's favorite method of getting online. 00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:56.000 [Door Creaks And Slams Shut] 00:00:56.000 --> 00:01:02.000 <v Clay Larsen> I use AOL HuffPo to download WAV files of my favorite Arianna Huffington quotes. 00:01:02.000 --> 00:01:03.000 <v Arianna Huffington> Master of the internet. 00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:04.000 <v Clay Larsen> That happens whenever I get an e-mail. 00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:11.000 <v Allan McLeod> Now, I can get intelligent, political discourse at the same place I have cyber sex with fourteen-year-old's. 00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:12.000 [Ringing] 00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:23.000 <v Greg Tuculescu> Chat rooms, political poll results, movie trailers, every quote by Alec Baldwin, and two whole megabytes of e-mail storage.

But mainly it's for the cyber sex. 00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:34.000 <v Alex Fernie> I gotta check this out. After the game. [Laughs] 00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:39.000 <v Greg Tuculescu> America Online and the Huffington Post. Bringing the future back to nineteen ninety-six. 00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:40.000 <v Computerized Voice> Good Goodbye.
