Fired New York Times business contributor Ben Stein is sad. Particularly, he's sad "that the Internet has become a backyard gossip freeway for the whole world's sick people to pour out their neuroses." Well what else did he expect it to become? Also he forgot the part about how it's good for getting gay sex. Anyway, here is a small list of Stein's delusions regarding his firing.

"gossip freeway for the whole world's sick people to pour out their neuroses."
Like the Nixon tapes, Mr. Stein?
What in God's name has become of the rational, genteel culture that had the common sense to turn game show hosts and eighth-tier actors into financial columnists and political pundits?
There actually is a downside to this. Now he'll have more time to proselytize about creationism.
Bueller....
Stein? Stein? BJ Stein? BJ?
Famous (unfortunately not) last words: "The credit crunch is way overblown... the subprime problem is a problem, but it's a tiny problem... It's a buying opportunity, especially for the financials... I think stocks will be a heck of a lot higher a year from now than they are now." Stein on Faux news, August 2007.
So who's standing in the middle of a backyard gossip freeway handing out financial advice? Stein? Stein?
Kissing Ben's daughter Jessica Stein.
Sorry, totally random. Going back to sleep now.
