0:00.0	This Christmas you can put an Apple 2C under your tree for under $2,000, but a
0:05.2	monitor carrying case had over $300 of rebate coupons for a printer, external
0:10.7	disk drive, joystick, Apple mouse and nine mind-extending software programs. Then

1:31.7	regular food waste and stuff from your compost. Candy cane wrappers. You get the wrappers
1:38.4	not the cane. Exactly. Well, you're getting the cane, either way. Good cane. But we're
1:44.2	talking about the candy. Well, there's this hole. Yeah. It does nuance to it. Hello,
1:48.5	everyone. Welcome to another Thursday. God another Thursday, Lewis. Every week my life,
1:53.2	my life force escapes me slowly bit by bit. You know what I mean, Lewis? Thirsty comes
