The unemployment rate in America has reached 10% for the first time in decades.
Fuck!

If you are one of those unfortunate folks in the 10% bracket, I wish you luck in your search for gainful employment. I've been there, it sucks. But everyone's expendable these days, "aside from the guy with the thickest shaft in the porn industry."

So keep your head up. Don't give up. Chances are, the reason you were let go has more to do with a bad decision someone with a C-level title made. Not you.

But I digress.
While you are out of work, why not use that time for something constructive. Be an extra on a film set. Comment in our forum. Or try one of the other 10 Things to Do If You Become Unemployed.

The Daily Shows first rate parody of a Glen Beck rant, just happens to be about Glen Beck and the conspiracy to destroy his body.

What if we watched movies in reverse?

Then, good guys could become villains.
Guns could give life.
And stories of redemption would unravel.

Basically, you get a completely different movie. And that's why this exercise is so much fun. Just pick one of your favorite films and play it in reverse.

I'll start.
Here are the synopsis of 26 popular movies watched backwards.

Wrong answer but, we applaud the effort.

The world loves football (soccer) and McDonald's loves fatty foods. It was only a matter of time before the fast food giant stepped up and put their name on a team jersey.

Ronald and Co. just wanted to make sure they found the appropriate sponsor first.

According to the Football Association of Thailand (FAT), McDonald's will provide £450,000 in cash, and the rest in products, in exchange for shirt sponsorship for the next three years.

For that, they will get to sponsor the Thai National Football team.

The money will be used for equipment, training and support.
The team has never made the World Cup and is currently ranked 110th in the world.

Thai officials hope McD's money will help make the World Cup dreams come true.

Players meanwhile, will be able to fuel up on free burgers.
So, don't could on it.

November 4, 2008 was a historic night for America.

YesButNoButYes made a little history as well. Our first ever live blog.

We had dozens of fans, Loyal 77 members, and your favorite writers typing and drinking as the results came in.
Lots of wonderful comments were made.

Given it's been a year, take a look back via the YBNBY Live Blog 2008 Rewind

If you scroll through the comments you might see some references to my get out the vote effort in PA.

Looks like I missed one heck of a film festival.

The Philadelphia Inquirer ran this Macy*s ad in today's paper to congratulate the Phillies on back-to-back championships.

Big Oops.

In case you're not paying attention, it's the Yankees who could clinch the title with a win tonight.

Not that it's going to make me boycott Macy*s. But lets just say I won't be buying my 2009 Yankees World Series Championship T-Shirt in Herald Square.

On Friday Night with Jonathan Ross over on BBC1, Christopher Walken took a turn at reading the words to "Poker Face."

He nailed it!
(Off rock and pop station rotation I hope.)

Is there anything this man can't do?

There's a special Peter Sellers reading on the jump.

When some people are at work, some people are taking a smoke break.
And while some people are taking a smoke break, they might just dance like Michael Jackson.
And you might laugh.
