I slog through another day at the Daily Show. I edit word documents. It’s very tedious work.<\/p>\n
Then its evening. I’m in the hotel room of Stuart and Colbert doing some menial tasks. Occasionally, they wisk in and out, busy with the show.<\/p>\n
Then, I’m in a large airport mall, very posh. I must be on the fifth floor. I look at a new phone to buy. I pick one out, looking at my own phone to view the opinions. Colbert is in the ads for the phones. He talks of the 4th dimension and I crack up because I get the inside joke: it’s a dig a 3dsi, doing one dimension better.<\/p>\n
I swipe my card on my own phone to pay. The authorization screen indicates Claudia Anderson. Something is wrong. I tap on the authorization pad. It takes this as a signature.<\/p>\n
I’m dismayed. A new saleslady gets a different model phone, one I really want, and takes my card.<\/p>\n
“I work for the Daily Show,” I say.<\/p>\n
“Oh, is that so. You know Jon Stewart was just given a commendation by the Pope.”<\/p>\n
“Well, I used to work for it… not directly, through an office in Fairfax.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
