So I chatted with Ben Stein tonight
 

Not much else to say really. Seemed like a nice man. He was invited to campus by the College Republicans, and I was lucky enough to hang around and chat. Pretty funny, and not nearly as drab as he is portrayed.

That's cool...he seems like he would be a pretty funny guy when he drops the librarian persona.

talk at all about Nixon?

Yeah, he said Nixon had a foul mouth and was quite the racist (not too suprising). And that Woodward probably made up his informants, as Stein said he had a tendancy to do.

Did he say anything about Jimmy Kimmel? :D

I always enjoyed "Win Ben Stein's Money" when he was a co-host. :)

Well, I asked if he was bitter about Kimmel having his own show on network and him being on cable, and he said he was glad for jimmy. And he also said Nixon would aprove of Kimmel and the women on the trampoline.
