The Stupid Computer Tricks Comedy Hour

The "Media Guys" are two self proclaimed "techies" who love to play with, and occasionally break, computers and other stuff. Their long and storied history began during the "swinging sixties" when they met and quickly became the "Media Kids" in Long Island's Massapequa Park. They have been going to parks, and parking their cars, ever since. Indeed, as Diddie (one of "The Media Guys") has often remarked, "If it weren't for Massapequa Park, Long Island would be a few miles shorter. If that was the case Long Island might be called 'Island That Would Be Long If Massapequa Park Were Still On It' island." Yes, Diddie is a bit of a simpleton, but he knows technology! In fact, Bill Gates himself, when once asked about Diddie, responded, "I'm sorry, I've never heard of him." Yes, it's true. Bill Gates has never heard of Diddie. But now you have! And you can proudly say that you know something Bill Gates doesn't- and no one can ever take that away from you! Isn't that, in itself, worth the waste of time watching this stupid video? Probably not. And, of course, his partner in electronic excellence, David Pasternack, aka "Mr. Media", has been proven to know more about technology than 65% of the seven year olds in in the ten leading American cities combined (except Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Seattle, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay and New York, where many of the seven year olds are really, really smart).
In their latest video, "Stupid Computer Tricks", the "Media Guys" demonstrate the extraordinary power of Apple's new Macbook Air computer, and their love of tea.
