He may not have to give a cut to his agent if it's just a buyout of the remaining value of his contract. The agent will have already taken a cut of the original value when the contract was signed.

yeah, Walter, that's a great plan. It's fucking ingenious, if I understand it correctly. It's a Swiss fucking watch.

Jackie Treehorn carries a lot of water in this town, Lebowski. You don't carry shit.

it seems like only yesterday that I was strafing your homes, now I'm begging you to stop making such great cars!

man, how're gonna keep them down on the farm once they've seen Karl Hungus?

say what you want about the Nuge, but, as that episode demonstrated, you could never accuse the guy of being disingenuous. He's a rightwing nutjob, but dammit, he puts wounded vets up in his ranch and cooks for them. Plus, he's responsible for "Stranglehold." More power to 'm.

On the plus side
Stewart/Colbert just got a whole mess'a material

@1234: I imagine that Top Gear conjures up a bunch of connotations that "everyone with taste" in the UK dislike (soccer hooligans, hoodies in souped-up Hondas, etc.) that just don't resonate here. It's a show about blokes doing bloke things, and that's fine with us.

Thirded on King Bastard. It's like Car Talk - you don't need to give a shit about cars to enjoy it.

soccer is shiite to watch on TV, but in person it's great. Just like how baseball isn't great on TV, but great on the radio. And how football sucks in person, and sucks on TV.
