I am sure lots of “goats” think they are the “goat” but I don’t think I know a “goat” who refers to them selves as a “goat”. Definitely not as much as this guy. Also talking in the third person a lot.

For decades now it seems, Michael Ian Black has delivered insightful and delightfully funny takes on just about everything and is both a study in the craft of comedy and interrogative rhetoric that is as incisive as it is sharp witted. He cuts quick and he cuts deep and his Bushido is strong. No matter what he's on, I stop and watch through the end, and walk away happier for it. This is a post of thanks and appreciation.

Haven't we all been part of a successful business group that was the target of "new" management or a "restructuring"?

The more stories that HIGNFYE covers, the more I think someone in media needs to scoop up the Stephen Colbert’s, Anderson Coopers, Etc….and start their own network
