From reader Desert Rat about the sale of Al Gore’s Current TV:

Hey Al, I understand that Current TV is having financial problems and is up for sale. I have some unused carbon credits that I would consider using to purchase your highly successful network. Let me know if this will work for you. Also, since I am a Michigan resident, thank you for taking Jenny Grandmole off of our hands. As she stated previously in Michigan years ago, “in five years, you will be blown away.” I’m still waiting. Al, as a follow up, my wife purchased six toy pinwheels from the local dollar store and I have started a wind farm to help supply energy for my 2,800 square foot home, and the 3 acre lot next to me. Please advise as to when I should see results. Thank you.

See, how it works is, I give you 375,000 carbon credits in exchange for the channel. I don’t think there has been a study on the dangers on the environment of television signals. They are airborne, so I’m actually shocked we don’t know the toll it will place on the environment.  more

    I’ll gladly trade a stinky turd for Current TV, although that is kind of like a one to one barter situation.

    I’m sorry, on that Elliot Spitzer show, did you say, “Ewww Point” or “Spew Point”?

    I think Peabody Energy should buy it and use the channel to air programs about the benefits of coal.
