Oprah is hosting a "get your own TV show" contest or something. This guy named Zach entered. If he doesn't win, it will be proof Oprah is the antichrist.

My favorite lines:
"I have cerebral palsy, which I think is the sexiest of the palsies."
"I'm not doing yoga; I'm just putting on my pants."
Talk about counting it all joy.

OK, Good news and bad news.
The good news is he's winning by a lot. Go look at this new story (and reaction video by him) from New York magazine.
And the bad news is after watching this video he did interviewing drunk people on 6th Street in Austin, I'm not a fan anymore. Whew, that was fast. I went from thinking he was great, to thinking he's a lowlife inside 5 minutes. I'm sure he'd be a hit on HBO. Yuck.
I want to apologize first for going off-topic with this comment. We have dear friends, three families, from the Sugar Land area, who have been missionaries in Osh Kyrgyzstan for the past several years. Things are terribly bad there. They were trapped until yesterday by burning buildings and gunfire 24/7. The US embassay was no help in getting them out. The Swiss embassay helped them, along with expats, to get an military escort to the airport, where thousands have fled. They think they'll be able to get out tomorrow. I would appreciate all who read this to lift them up in prayer. http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=CNG.4bac86de429ab38d7a38be8b92ee27f5.1c1&show_article=1
UPDATE:
Now Jon Mayer has put up a response to Zach's "Thank you internet" saying that he (Jon) will write and record the theme song for Zach's show.
Here it is.

My favorite line, "No Atlantis is too underwater or too fictional."
AAAAGH! ROTFLADL! (Rolling on the floor laughing all day long.)
He's A-plus awesome in my book.
My prediction: if he got a show people would criticize him as being a negative portrayal of those with disabilities because he laughs at himself.
