I was going to actually bite the bullet and register over at your little message board but you guys disabled registration so I'll just do it here since you love reading this blog.
Bix wants to know what's the yellow under my eyes.
Well Bix I wouldn't know what it is because I don't have any. You people are making fun of me with pictures I took a couple years ago. You like to joke that I have some sort of liver problem. I can tell you now that despite being a lard ass I am in perfect physical health.
No liver problems, no kidney problems, no heart problems, no cholesterol, no nothing.
Someone suggested I drink Mountain Dew. Granted I like drinking soda but I tend to stick to caffine free Coke or Pepsi. I can't remember the last time I drank Mountain Dew. It might have been a year ago but I'm not to sure about that.
So yeah sorry to dissapoint you guys.

It's been a year all ready
It was a year ago yesterday that my Uncle Johnny died downstairs from a massive heart attack (he probably also had cancer but didn't tell anyone). I remember my brother frantically coming to get me telling me to go downstairs because they think Uncle Johnny had a heart attack.
He was in his bed and not breathing or anything so we called 911 and God bless the NYC EMT's because they always get here with in 5 mins. Naturally they thought it was for my other uncle since they had been here to many times to count for him but we were like it's other one so they drag him out onto the floor of my Aunt's room and go to work on him. I had always said I didn't want to be in the house when the day came but it was the final hurdle of sorts to cross. They worked on him for an hour but it was to no avail and he was declared dead around 3:50 I think.
When ever you call for an ambulance, the police come by depending on the situation and it was a bit weird hearing someone upstairs saying is anyone home. I said we're down here and down walks a cop and his partner as the EMT's are still inside. After a couple mins they filled out some paperwork that's necessary for when anyone dies (basically the toe tag info) and basically I identified the body so all the info they wrote down was from me. I guess they listed me as the next of kin. It was weird but it's paperwork and the city is very preticular about that.
I remember the cop staying around for a couple of hours because someone had to be with the body till it was claimed by the funeral home. We went around the block to Daniel George but they were out of business at that point (google Daniel George Body Snatchers for more info) so we went to the Miraglia Funeral Home a few blocks away next to the train station. I always passed it but never went in it. As far as I know it's still family owned so it's a nice Italian funeral parlor. We made some preliminary arrangements and then walked back home and it's weird when you come back home and there's a body just laying there.
I remember thinking in the back of my mind the body starts some natural processes after death so the longer he's there it wouldn't be good. I remember my Uncle George saying when one of my cousins died in the 80's it took them almost 8 hours to get the body out of the house. It was about 4 or so for Uncle Johnny. They eventually came and brought the gurney and put him in the bag and wheeled him out.
We had a wait almost a week for the wake and funeral since there was the weekend and I think a jewish holiday and the cemetaries were closed. He's buried out in New Jersey at the same place my Uncle Tommy is. We thought we could get the grave next to him which would of been funny if they had to spend eternity next to each other since they didn't preticularly like each other. But he ended up in a grave across the road so to speak. I remember after the service was over and everyone was leaving the coffin was by itself under the tent they have and as we drove by I just thought it was sad and almost a statement on our family. They don't give a shit till it's to late and once your gone they don't bother with you.
I hope there is something beyond this world and He's found peace because his last months weren't to pleasant.
Ah well thanks with putting up with me doing some remembering. I needed to kick start the writing portion of my brain and a quick blog works wonders.

Random thoughts for 8/25/06
First off all my friends on the Andrewbulous Message board can still kiss my ass. But in addition to the usual suspects, Travis wants to know the following.
"I feel very left out
HEY TUBBY AM I NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOUR CRAPPY 20 YEAR OLD PICTURE OF ARN ANDERSON OR WHAT? "
The answer shit for brains is no you are not good enough to deserve the Arn Anderson pic. You get nothing. You are nothing. Take that with you through the rest of the day. As for the rest of you cocksuckers on the board, I'd like to thank you all for the hits and attention you've given this little blog. As they say attention is attention and you all gave me some attention so give yourself a round of applause.
On to those random thoughts now...
First off August 22nd came and went for the most part we're still alive so the threat of Iran nuking everyone didn't happen. I was actually kinda dissapointed. There are days where I welcome a nuclear holocaust. But I suppose it's always a good thing when nothing happens. It's funny how it's coming up on 5 years since 9/11 and that Bin Laden fellow is still out there. On CNN earlier the Pakistani Ambassador said that Bin Laden might be in the mountains near the border with China. You know if that goof is still alive (which I and a good portion of the public doubt he is) I hope the Chinese find him because The Chinese can do alot more to him then we ever could.
Normally I'm against those damn Commies because they are downright horrible when it comes to human rights but you know if they capture a bed ridden Osama Bin Laden and unplug his dialisis Machine and let him die a slow death is it such a bad thing? Then again there was a time where I was all for bringing him back alive so we could drag him through the streets of New York and dip him into a pool of Pigs blood before we disembowled him. Of course now I could care less if they catch him or not. Oh sure he's a bad person, but think about it for a second. If we wanted him dead he would have been dead a week after 9/11. We have technology that can see with in an inch of a target from 250 Miles up and yet we're supposed to believe this fucker got away on Horseback in the middle of the night when we had every piece of military technology aimed at him.
Yeah what ever.
In other news, Pluto is no longer a planet. What is it with these damn egg head astronomers having to change things. Just because it small and takes 248 to orbit the sun doesn't mean it's not a planet. This dwarf planet thing won't make anysense in the long run and odds are they will flip and call it a planet again. Now if we could just build a space engine big and fast enough to get someone to Pluto and beyond in a normal lifetime we would be set because you know it would be nice to be able to get out of the solar system if the sun ever decides to go Nova.
So yeah that's about it. Listen to the radio show and click on the ads. The blog might turn a profit yet.

http://thewrestlingvoice.com/columns/phant...158334001.shtml
This is basically part 2 to my The X Division needs Nash column a couple months ago. I write about how the angle went better then anyone thought and how TNA is blowing the best thing they have going on tv right now.
Is Kevin Nash out for himself or is he actually doing what others wont and giving back to the business?
Read the ballad of Kevin Nash to get my take on it.
Feedback or hatemail is appreciated.

K Thor Jensen can kiss my ass
Hey K Thor I know you love reading my blogs so this one's for you pal. And just for the record you little schmuck. I'm not going to go to a film school. I'm going to go to an actual college. There's a big difference you dumb shit. Spunk, Migrane, Woodude, Josh, Joe_Mamal the same goes to you all. You all can kiss my big fat white ass.
You people claim I have the pathetic life yet your the ones who love to spend time harping on me. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Perhaps you should examine your own life before making fun of mine. There are only two people I have to answer for my actions and that's God and myself and the last time I checked none of you little dickless wonder's were either.

LIP GLOSS IS A WEAPON PEOPLE
OH NOES TEH TERRORISTS WERE GONNA USE GATORADE AND TOOTHPASTE AS A WEAPON. WE DON'T HAVE A PRAYER.
Are you kidding me...I Jesus is this what we have come to? Scared to death over lip gloss and a bottle of fruit punch. All this new warning did was cause people to stand in line longer then they had to because God forbid someone got on board with their IPOD because then we might really be in for it.
Ok yes I guess it is serious. I mean in theory if this plot happened we could have easily seen a couple thousand people blown out of the sky at once. Its not a pleasant thought but the security measures they put in place afterwards are no picnic either. It's been proven time and time again that people can sneak just about anything onto a plane if they are creative enough. I remember when I was on the Red Eye coming back from Vegas that someone brought their dog onto the plane with them.
This whole no carry on bagage in England thing is not going to work. What about the regular baggage. You can still hide a bomb in there. They did that with that Pan Am flight over Scotland. A little explosive molded into a common walkman of the time.
So this current threat of appearently mixing liquids seems far fetched to me. I mean unless it's the same bomb used in Die Hard 3 I kinda doubt you can mix chemicals and ignite them with a camera flash or cell phone or even an IPOD.
I think when it comes down to it this is another case of having to justify all these preemptive measures. I mean its not like it's Baghdad in New York or London with some dumb Jihadi blowing up a market every 15 minutes or random bombs going off. For the most part with the exception of Bali, Madrid, and London...nothing has happened since 9/11. Most people don't really care about 9/11 anymore so these terror plots kinda come out when they need a reminding of sorts.
I know I'm being cynical but damn it you know it's the truth. I don't care about the war. I know no one who really does. We're more concerned with the price of living going up then some problem in the middle east. It's funny how if we got into this war for Oil yet the price of Oil is higher then ever before.
I guess a peace time economy is better for the gas guzzlers.

Myspace.com is down...
Oh lawdey lawdey lawd what ever will I do. My Space is down and I can't see the 10,000 bulletins people send me everyday for stupid shit. The cam whores can't contact me. The conspiracy nuts can't send me their videos. I can't even get links to club party's I'll never go to. Ok so Myspace is down. Big fricken deal.MySpace is owned by News Corp and you would think with a site that has 80 Million members they would invest some of that Fox money into generators for the servers. Myspace has been running slow as hell anyway lately so maybe this would be a perfect excuse for Tom to get off his ass and put in some new servers so it doesn't take me 15 minutes to log in and constant refreshing just to see someone's message.
The one thing I never got about Myspace is where is all the personal information they harp about on the news. They say dumb girls put up all this info and I've never seen it. Of course I'm not complaining when they put up revealing pictures but Myspace is not as bad as people make it out to be. I would say half the people who use it end up using it like I do and that's to shill their stuff. The more friends you have the more people you can send your content to. Oh sure I've found a few people I knew in high school but other then that it's not that great of a site. So maybe with this "blackout" they'll update everything so it isn't so slow.

I swear it's all about timing
According to the Box office types, My Super Ex-Girlfriend (With Luke Wilson and Uma Thurman) will be a bomb because it will only pull in maybe $7 Million total this weekend.Personally it pisses me off when you got an original idea like this and the movie doesn't do to well. Unlike other movies that have bloated budgets this one seems like it was fairly cheap to make (well by blockbuster standards).
Luke Wilson is a damn good actor and Uma Thurman is many a man's dream woman so how could it fail?
I'll tell you how it fails. First it was put out at the wrong time of year. A movie like this is good for the late fall not the height of the summer. I can count alot of movies that were great but did poorly because they opened against a huge blockbuster.
I'm thinking about going back to school to get a degree in film and I can tell you honestly if I had a choice between a huge action film and a quirky comedy date movie, I'd take the date movie. With action flicks there's no guarentee it will do well. With comedy date movies you get word of mouth and you should be able to generate a decent profit. If I had a special someone I know I would probably take her to go see this over what ever the hell else is playing. I mean if your going to spend $40 bucks on tickets and food alone then you might as well make the movie worth your while.
Besides it has Uma Thurman in spandex...how the hell can it fail?

TWO MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT
Yes I know it's a bit cliche to use that line but what the hell. I'm a Maiden fan so I'm allowed. But seriously it looks like the proverbail shit is about to hit the fan. Israel has just blockaded Lebanon, Syria and Iran are pretty much behind all the stuff going on over there and add to that we still have our little friend Kim playing with his missiles because he has an ego complex.So it makes you wonder. When everything does hit the fan...what happens next? I honestly don't know. I mean if you believe one group of people this is all the work of Islamic radicals hell bent on the end of the world. If you believe another this is all the work of the Illumanti. Of course you could be part of the other 95% who basically could care less on what is going on around you. With the rising prices oil and the cost of living who has time to worry about a silly little thing like World War 3 when you can't even pay the bills on time. Those silly little cost of living problems are what the big wigs like to call a distraction.
You won't notice the world falling apart around you if your in debt over your head. I hope cooler heads prevail but honestly they probably won't. The Israeli's have been itching to get Syria an ass whipping for years and since most experts agree Syria goaded Hezzbollah into attacking yesterday they'll finally get their chance to level Damascus. After all that part is in the bible.
Isaiah 17I found that on http://www.godlikeproductions.com
1 The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from being a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap.
2 The cities of Aroer are forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.
3 The fortress also shall cease from Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria: they shall be as the glory of the children of Israel, saith the LORD of hosts.
4 And in that day it shall come to pass, that the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean.
5 And it shall be as when the harvestman gathereth the corn, and reapeth the ears with his arm; and it shall be as he that gathereth ears in the valley of Rephaim.
6 Yet gleaning grapes shall be left in it, as the shaking of an olive tree, two or three berries in the top of the uppermost bough, four or five in the outmost fruitful branches thereof, saith the LORD God of Israel.
7 At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel.
8 And he shall not look to the altars, the work of his hands, neither shall respect that which his fingers have made, either the groves, or the images.
9 In that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken bough, and an uppermost branch, which they left because of the children of Israel: and there shall be desolation.
10 Because thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the rock of thy strength, therefore shalt thou plant pleasant plants, and shalt set it with strange slips:
11 In the day shalt thou make thy plant to grow, and in the morning shalt thou make thy seed to flourish: but the harvest shall be a heap in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.
12 Woe to the multitude of many people, which make a noise like the noise of the seas; and to the rushing of nations, that make a rushing like the rushing of mighty waters!
13 The nations shall rush like the rushing of many waters: but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off, and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind, and like a rolling thing before the whirlwind.
14 And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not. This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that rob us.
If you think I'm paranoid you should see some of the folks on that board. But the funny thing about Biblical prophecy is it's usually right. It's funny how when everything is said and done and those of us left alive after the nuclear holocausts write down the history of what happened we can look back and say what kicked World War 3 into high gear were three Israeli soilders getting kidnapped.
Then again it's like Albert Einstien said. World War 3 will be fought with bombs and World War 4 will be fought with sticks and stones.

North Korea can go suck it
Depending on who you believe, North Korea has launched a bunch of missiles. Now if I lived in Japan I could see how this would be a problem. But since I live in New York I know I'm well out of the range of one of those pieces of crap. Granted a short range missile from a ship could easily be fired off any part of the coastline, but when it comes to the ICBM's only Russia and China are the ones to worry about.
North Korea is a joke and we all know it. Kim Jon Il is a joke. While his people starve, he lives in the lap of luxury. While he gets to watch television and foriegn movies...he has his people shot if they dare try to leave the country. Kim is like every other dictator. His people suffer while he reaps the rewards of the cause. I honestly don't know how the people of North Korea put up with him. After a while common sense should prevail in the face of a little nutcase like him.
Kim here's a piece of advice. Don't screw with us. Your propaganda says we're the evil ugly Americans...well guess what. We are...if you piss us off you'll see how Evil and Ugly we can be. Granted President Bush and his advisors aren't the sharpest bunch of knives in the draw, but he knows how to bomb the shit out of people. Ask Saddam Hussien. You could ask Mulah Omar but no one knows where that cyclops is and you could ask Bin Laden...but he's been dead for a few years.
So yeah...you can go suck it Kim. Don't make us have to kick your ass because if you do something stupid then we'll have to do something stupid and alot of people are gonna die over something stupid.
Mmmk?

So those Commie bastards have a missile
http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/K/KOREAS_MISSILE?
Are we supposed to be impressed or something? Ok granted if the situation was right they could easily sell this missile to anyone who has the cash and in theory a nuclear warhead could be put on it and then its just a matter of putting it on a slow boat and firing it off the coast. But that's a huge what if and lets be honest, The North Korean's aren't that damn lucky.
Now I haven't been to fond of G Dubbya lately, but lets be honest we all know North Korea is playing a game of chicken right now because they know even if they did do something like attack the South or fire at Japan, they know we're not going to do anything because there's no way the Chinese would allow us to turn North Korea in a smoking hole in the ground. I believe even if they do test this missile, nothing will come of it.
I'm more concerned with Iran since its almost a given we'll be at war with them by the end of the summer. It's just a matter of what happens between now and then. Oh sure there's plenty of evil forces that want us to go to war with Iran (neocons,pnac, ect). But even though it would make Iraq look pale in comparrison, the Iranian goverment are right up there with The Chinese and North Korean's when it comes to human rights.
The United States might not be perfect, but you don't see us hanging rape victims because under the letter of their law, it consitutes pre-marital sex. You don't see us censoring our political enemies. I think I had a point in all of this, but I'll be damned if I can remember it.
Either way I could care less if North Korea can launch this missile. As long as it lands no where near me or anyone I care about, Kim Jon 'Mentally' Ill will have no problems with this ugly American.
Are we supposed to be impressed or something? Ok granted if the situation was right they could easily sell this missile to anyone who has the cash and in theory a nuclear warhead could be put on it and then its just a matter of putting it on a slow boat and firing it off the coast. But that's a huge what if and lets be honest, The North Korean's aren't that damn lucky.
Now I haven't been to fond of G Dubbya lately, but lets be honest we all know North Korea is playing a game of chicken right now because they know even if they did do something like attack the South or fire at Japan, they know we're not going to do anything because there's no way the Chinese would allow us to turn North Korea in a smoking hole in the ground. I believe even if they do test this missile, nothing will come of it.
I'm more concerned with Iran since its almost a given we'll be at war with them by the end of the summer. It's just a matter of what happens between now and then. Oh sure there's plenty of evil forces that want us to go to war with Iran (neocons,pnac, ect). But even though it would make Iraq look pale in comparrison, the Iranian goverment are right up there with The Chinese and North Korean's when it comes to human rights.
The United States might not be perfect, but you don't see us hanging rape victims because under the letter of their law, it consitutes pre-marital sex. You don't see us censoring our political enemies. I think I had a point in all of this, but I'll be damned if I can remember it.
Either way I could care less if North Korea can launch this missile. As long as it lands no where near me or anyone I care about, Kim Jon 'Mentally' Ill will have no problems with this ugly American.

So the feds finally cave in...
Today the big story was The Feds caved in to a F.O.I.A. Order and released a video of Flight 77 hitting the Pentagon.
Its basically the same damn video that was leaked a couple years ago. The worlds most fortified building only had one camera appearently on that day. Well looking at the frame in question it shows a blur. Is it the nose of Flight 77 or is it a Missile. I'm saying it's not a Boeing 767...That's for damn sure.
Why must the goverment play these games with us the people. I mean we're their bosses. We elect those bastards and pay their saleries and yet they treat us like we're stupid children. Well most people are stupid but that's besides the point here. 9/11 is the defining moment of my generation and with all the camera's that are around I find it hard to believe that one tiny camera at the security booth is all that captured the most revolting attack in American History.
We know that the FBI confiscated over 35 videos that clearly show what ever hit the Pentagon. They refuse to release those videos. They released this video in the hopes it would shut people up but all it did was make more questions then leave answers.
I don't want to believe that anyone in the Goverment had any role in 9/11, but when they refuse to release video that would prove things one way or another it doesn't look to good for their side of the story.
I hope and Pray that in my lifetime we come to some sort of closure on 9/11, but with the feds playing games with the emotions of we the people I doubt it will happen anytime soon. Of course no one really gives a shit either way since the price of living is choking the middle class to death.
The truth could come out tomorrow, but I doubt anyone would really care with Gas over $3 dollars and the Duke Rape case to worry about.
I mean god forbid we have any real news.

Just some late night venting
I don't have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It's a depression. Everybody's out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel's work, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in the street and there's nobody anywhere who seems to know what to do, and there's no end to it. We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat, and we sit watching our TV's while some local newscaster tells us that today we had fifteen homicides and sixty-three violent crimes, as if that's the way it's supposed to be. We know things are bad - worse than bad. They're crazy. It's like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don't go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is, 'Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won't say anything. Just leave us alone.' Well, I'm not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get mad! I don't want you to protest. I don't want you to riot - I don't want you to write to your congressman because I wouldn't know what to tell you to write. I don't know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you've got to get mad.I know it's cliche, but that speech from Network really does apply to alot of things in life. Anyone of you reading this right now probably have lost count at the things that have caused you to say "DAMN IT TO HELL". We're living in bad times right now. Another war is on the horizon, the cost of gasoline will continue to rise, the cost of living continues to cripple those of us in the middle class. The list goes on and on and on.
[shouting] You've got to say, 'I'm a HUMAN BEING, Goddamnit! My life has VALUE!' So I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell,
[shouting] 'I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!' I want you to get up right now, sit up, go to your windows, open them and stick your head out and yell - 'I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Things have got to change. But first, you've gotta get mad!... You've got to say, 'I'm as mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore!' Then we'll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it:
[screaming at the top of his lungs] "I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE!"
One thing that pissed me off this week was the fact that The Freedom Tower is going to be built. If you watched Penn & Teller's episode of Bullshit this week on Ground Zero you got a pretty good idea of everything that has gone wrong post 9-11. It's a god awful design and the fact that it's going up is a testament to greed and corruption and add to that it sends a message that we American's are a bunch of wimps.
Zacarias Moussaoui got denied his wish to become a martyr when the jury came back recomending Life in Prison. Personally I'm for the death pentaly but it's painfully clear that this guy is a patsy and the feds were hoping they could put him to death so symbolically we could put 9/11 to rest since we'll never catch that Bin Laden fellow. The way I see it, as I grow older I will always few The Freedom Tower as a huge eye sore in this city's skyline. If I and other New Yorker's had to choose between that and nothing we would choose nothing. We'd rather have the open sky over Lower Manhattan then this sanitized piece of crap that is going to go up.
I don't know why I'm writing about this. I know no one gives a shit either way about it. Coast to Coast is doing open lines tonight and George Noory is letting people vent their feelings. While I'm not venting my real problem right now, this has sort of lifted a weight off of me. I mean I know with me when it came to post 9/11 life I took a left when I should have taken a right on my road of life and now I'm feeling the consequences.
I'm honestly contemplating going back to school, I mean what's another $10 grand on my student loan debts. But it's like I feel if I did that it would be all for nothing as much like the last two years it would be a waste of my time. I often wonder about the future and what it holds for me and everyone I know and right now I can honestly say I see nothing but darkness. It's like the song No Leaf Clover by Metallica goes "The light at the end of your tunnel is just a frieght train coming your way".
These feelings of dread are something that just won't go away and when I see the world and how it's being run around me it's no wonder I have no hope for the future.
Can you honestly say that you do?

I introduce Cardinal Kay O'Fabian and some other stuff
I figured I'd post this here to for anyone who needs a good laugh.
I'd be doing coke off Paris Hilton's ass if I had a name like Suri. Gweneth's kid Moses...it goes on and on and on.
Jim, Joe, Jane, Elizabeth. These are respectable names. Suri is just asking for a life time of jokes and feeling like shit.
http://www.lethalwrestling.com/news/fulI'm all ready asking for forgivness right now. Oh yeah Tom and Katie had their baby. Well good for them...but what is it with these Hollywood types naming their kids with horrible names. And they wonder why all these kids end up in rehab by the age of 15.lnews.php?id=8
Cardinal Kay O'Fabian delievers a sermon that you won't soon forget towards one Vincent Kennedy McMahon.
The Good Cardinal looks at Vince's bright idea's in the past and his current fued with God.
I personally can not be held responsible for the words of The Cardinal but he makes plenty of good points so sit back and try to look at the upside of things.

The news that everyone seems to care about
Never mind the fact that the Immigration bills in Congress are a joke as they are just pandering to their respective political groups or the fact that Iran is daring us to attack...it just seems the biggest news stories this week were Katie Couric going to CBS and Katie Holmes Scientology birth. Yeah sure there was that story about Bush leaking classified information himself, but appearently he's allowed to do that since he's the President.
Now I like Katie Couric. I'll be honest when I watch The Today Show its not because of her perky personality. It's because I want to see what kind of mini skirt she's got on today. Yeah sure she's a good news anchor, but her power came over the last few years from showing off those great legs of her. When she takes over on CBS, I suspect the only time we'll get to see them is during some sit down interview. On the plus side the equally hot Meredith Viera is going to be taking her spot on the Today show. We all know the women of The View hate each other and I'm pretty sure NBC could have thrown any amount of money at her as long as they promised she never had to sit next to Star Jones again.
So yeah for NBC and CBS it's an equal trade as we the viewer get one hot milf for another. If you think I'm being sexist, I'm not. Television is all about sex appeal and you know it.
Now as for Katie, I almost feel sorry for her. Yes it's clear she's been brainwashed, but in order to be brain washed you have to have a mind that is ripe for the taking. Scientology is a cult and with all cults they look for people who are easy to control. Scarlett Johanson was smart enough to get the hell out of the room when Tom brought the Scientologist elders in to talk. Katie probably bought into the hype that becoming a scientologist would help her become a leading lady in Hollywood.
I think she's a good enough actress on her own, but she needed a break out role more then she needed direction in her life. I say I almost feel sorry for her because she had to know what she was getting into. Anyone with half a brain can figure out Scientology is a crock of shit. This whole silent brith deal is laughable at best. Oh yeah Travolta and others say no one HAS to do it, but since Tom is trying to become the Pope of Scientology you damn well know he's going to make sure Katie is silent. How he plans on accomplishing this with out her taking pain killers we will probably never know.
I just hope that Katie has enough sense to run far far far away when the baby is born and when L. Rob's goon squad isn't watching. Maybe someone should have her watch the In the Closet episode of South Park just in case she thinks raising that baby in that enviorment is a good idea.
Oh yeah this whole Bush deal, he said he the person doing the leaking should be fired. Well it turns out it was him. I wonder how firing your self works out.
Hey it's like I said, he had my support and then he lost it and I'm not the only Bush Supporter who has the same feelings now towards him.

Taliban Johnny can still kiss my ass
http://www.nydailynews.com/front/story/405177p-343071c.html
So I'm reading this article about Taliban Johnny and how he's a model prisoner and how his family and friends say he deserves a break in his 20 year strech in the joint. You know what I say about Johnny Walker Lindh?
He can kiss my ass that's what. Fuck him and the donkey he was on over in Afghanistan. Me and him are the same age but I'm supposed to fell sorry for him because he made a bad life decision? I've made my share but I sure as hell didn't take up arms with the enemy. He joined the Taliban...granted they are all a bunch of schmucks at best but he still was fighting with them. Want an idea of how the Taliban are? Go watch the movie Osama for starters and if that doesn't piss you off then nothing will.
But back to this little prick. So he's in jail for 20 years. He's lucky he wasn't shot right then and there when they found him. But unlike his taliban buddies, despite what others might tell you we actually treat our prisoners with humanity. He should be lucky that we didn't seek the death penalty against him but then again lethal injection is to good for him.
All I know is this, he might have been some low level turd but the point is he still was with the enemy and despite our reasons for fighting this war on terror we have to fight these Islamo facist nutcases and we don't need dumb kids like him going over there thinking they're going to score points with Allah for fighting the Infidel.
So yeah Johnny Walker (not the drink...I could use some right now), you can kiss my ass.
