The Emmy's

I watch award shows to see favourite characters as they are off screen, and hear the music behind my favourite shows. This year's Emmy's took first prize. Where could one watch Josh Groban sing the theme song to South Park, Cobert talk about prunes and the Smothers Brothers be awarded for the very thing we now take for granted -- "Free" Speech.

"It's hard for me to stay silent, when I keep hearing that peace is only attainable through war. And there is nothing more scary than watching ignorance in action."

* Tommy Smothers as he accepted his honorary Emmy.

"We are like on Sarah Palin's bridge to nowhere, that's where we are right now. The government can't even bail us out of this. We have nothing."

* Emmy co-host Howie Mandel, who noted he and his co-hosts didn't have a prepared opening monologue
