Jumping off the pop culture cliff

To illustrate the fiscal cliffs ahead, we explored some famous cliff scenes at the beginning of today's show.

This final note today. Just to wrap things up from the top of the show. That was the scene where “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” jump into the river that you heard there. And “Thelma and Louise,” the bit at the end where they drive off the Grand Canyon. And the Road Runner, of course.

More substantively, as to what else Ben Bernanke told Congress today, this is worth a note. He’s gettting kinda worried about Europe.
