Wave Goodbye to the Internet, USA!

“I have always loved humor and laughter. As a young engineer I got an impulse to start a Dial-a-Joke in the San Jose/San Francisco area. I was aware of such humor services in other countries, such as Australia. This idea came from my belief in laughter. I could scarcely believe that I was the first person to create such a simple service in my region. Why was I the first? This was 1972 and it was illegal in the U.S. to use your own telephone. It was illegal in the U.S. to use your own answering machine. Hence it also virtually impossible to buy or own such devices. We had a monopoly phone system in our country then.” – Steve Wonziak on Net Neutrality

With that being said. It will be difficult, in the near future, for us to deliver the Media Collective to you as it currently stands.

Please take out your pen and check book. Ads will be erected for the highest bidder.

We will implement a token system in 2011. Be on the look out for the announcement.

Good day.
Happy Holidays.
Merry USA.

What’s up with that? A show not hosted by Ryan Hill. The intro music was created by The Media Collective.

Here is What’s up with that? season 4, episode 5. A chilly, but bright Saturday morning. Everyone was in high spirits due to Oaken Bucket game that was to commence later that day. As usual, we stood in our spot out by the brick wall in front of Jake’s taking everything in that is Breakfast Club.

This episode wraps up season 4 for us. A big thank you to everyone who participated in this season. We could not have done it without you. We have various projects we will be working on over the winter months, so please stay tuned.

The questions asked in this episode were:

  1. You have 1,000,000 followers on Twitter and 1,000,000 friends on Facebook. What do you warn them about societies and governments?
  2. Please describe IU and Purdue to the aliens on the Internet.
  3. You are making a new world sport. How would you make a game out of politics?
  4. How do you prepare for the second job interview?

For the record, alcohol prohibition was the 18th Amendment.
