"Pull-Out Method": Minority Leader John Boehner is having a little trouble with benchmarks and contradictions. Plus, he's not fooling anyone when he says that his name is really pronounced "Baner". I'm still trying to work out how tropical fish worked into the House... and I have a sudden craving for a bucket o' peanuts and some Pork & Flag On A Stick.

"Showdown at Justice: Hereunder referred to as the 'Nonvoluntary Lawyer Disemployment Program' vis a vis certain events on or around 7 December 2006 (C.F. Appendix B, Codicil IX, Paragraph 7)": Alberto Gonzalez isn't doing so hot. So, what else is new?

"Diagnosis: Science": Jon called this one of Ron Riggle's on-going pieces, but I don't recall ever seeing this before. I know Jason Jones did a "Diagnosis: Mystery" segment with a similar intro (same creepy stare at the topless woman). I don't know, maybe I blacked out one night and totally missed something? Anyway, this was all right, but almost too ridiculous. I quite liked the final line about not being able to make a rabbit with a human-sized vagina.

The night's guest was Dennis Miller. Oh. My. God. I remember the first time I saw him on the Daily Show, I wanted to stab myself in the leg as a pure distraction. I hate it -- hate it -- when comedians go on talk shows and completely overhaul the moment with a blatantly planned stand-up routine. And I usually love dropping cultural references into conversations (hello, Venture Bros. and Spaced are two of my favorite shows), but Miller sounded so ridiculous and desperate. He should have quit while he was ahead with "the Louvre of DNA".

Jon/Stephen: The boys showed off their Miller impressions. Moment of Zen: Bubba Gump and Mr. Peanut and -- what?
