On October 25, 2005, a humble man of mythic proportions, Jay Thomas changed the world (and Webster’s dictionary) when he coined the term "Bernankular" to honor new Fed Chairman, Ben Bernanke. Understand and follow the man behind the madness and help us as we make Greenspeak a thing of the past.

Bernanke Brigade Begins

Mr. Thomas and his followers began organizing a march tonight from Astoria, Queens to Princeton, NJ tonight after the discovery earlier today of a desperate plea from what everyone assumes is a Bernanke cracking under the pressure and scrutiny of the rapid spread of his famed Bernankular.

"I think he's in trouble,"Jay sighed, "we have to save him."

Thomas and his legion planned on walking hand in hand from Queens to NJ in a show of solidarity behind their iconic formerly loquacious future Chairman but, "It's really far," Jay decided and so they rented a heavily armored, battle ready, stretch Escalade, complete with a mini-bar, satellite TV and hot tub. "The Jersey turnpike is rough, I want my team to be prepared and relaxed for what we might find once we get to Princeton."

The team expects to arrive in Jersey by 8pm depending on the traffic in Staten Island and barring any unforeseen ambushes and detours, particularly through the particularly treacherous Atlantic City.
