the daily show with jon stewart is probably the one show i watch with any consistency (ok that and pimp my ride), despite that recent episode with jerry seinfeld that was just a giant unironic plug of daily show sponsor, american express (who apparently also own jerry's ass). anyway, the reason i'm telling you this is because i like jon stewart and i wish he was the speaker at *my* commencement, instead of paul westhead, who was a great coach and nice guy, but no jon stewart. and his speech ended with a clichèd "we-won't-say-goodbye-blah-blah-blah-but-just-say-auf-wiedersehen" [difficult word for a clichè -voice in my head.] which doesn't compare to the end of mr. stewart's address to this year's william & mary college graduating class. not one bit.
