Super Consideration

Halloween is a year away again, but Stephen did give us a preview of what his costume for next year will be. I can hardly wait.

Of course, that's not as important as politics and the economy which now involves Occupy Wall Street folks. Stephen traveled, incognito, to one of the encampments inhabited by these occupiers and was able to snag two to take up to his scenic penthouse to try to discern what they wanted and when they wanted it.

It was a cordial discussion if not particularly effective at solving anything. Stephen wanted to be a cult leader but was blocked and fingered down. Ah, but Stephen point-of-ordered it and then put it up for super consideration. He says it passed and then he gave it an executive run-through and went around any concerns. In spite of all this, rarely did he get fingers in the air.

A cult leader can do what ever he wants. Moving on, Stephen gave a Tip of the Hat to Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin. Although still cameras and video cameras are banned in the State Capitol at Madison, (thank heavens), it's just fine to carry a concealed weapon into the Capitol.

Stephen's guest tonight was author Neil MacGregor. His book, "A History of the World in 100 Objects" sounds good. I especially appreciate the great grammar in the title. But, the two of them only talked about three of them. (Two people, three objects.) How can we judge a book when only 3% of it is revealed? Perhaps the discussion was limited due to the feisty audience that Stephen had tonight. I do wish the cameras would have been turned around so that we could see just who it was that seemed to challenge what Stephen was saying. Stephen always speaks the truth so there should have been no complaints.
