The map should show "Indian", not "Indiana" as a territory no.

I like Heather but her being so CLEARLY taped at a different time with that zany background sort of breaks the flow. I think it would be a lot better Heather's segment was filmed with the rest of the show.

agreed... Also, does anyone else just zone out and stare at the background during heather's stuff, or is that just me?

Another good episode. I don't really have a problem with the background... It would probably be even better if i watched heathers part after droppin acid lolz.

my main concern is dropping the term rock band. I'd have to say none of the bands sounded at all like Rock. They are more Alternative. .... Just because A band consists of a Drummer guitar bass and singer doesn't make them a rock band.

Here's 2 just off the top of my head that maybe aren't the best but still are more rock then all the bands shown already combined.

Coke Dares

A lot of bands/people still call things like Rascal Flatts "Country" even though the only thing country about them is they wear cowboy boots, cowboy hats, use an acoustic guitar in all songs, and sing with a slight twang... Though that goes to the whole "Country" subculture, which apparently you just have to do one of those things to get in, even though everything else is nothing more than current pop culture, anyways, just a small rant. However, I do agree, they need to label them correctly or not use the label at all.

Thomas Jefferson is Officially a bad ass. As a rebuttal for the Adams' Campaign stating he was dead, the Jefferson camp gave the following statement about Mr. Adams...

"A hideous hermaphroditical character who has neither the force and the firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman."
