I'm back in Mississippi--just for a day though. I have to get some papers signed, etc. It's a hell of a trip for what's going to be about two hours, or less, worth of work though and last night's trip to the bar hasn't done much to convince me that today's drive home is going to be pleasant. At least I have ten hours of Randy Newman to listen to.

Chris Jericho is going to host a gameshow on ABC this summer called "Downfall."   The contestant?   TNA.   The selling point of the show?   The longest conveyor belt ever seen on TV.   Seriously.   They're really hyping this conveyor belt, so all you fans of conveyor belts have something to really look forward to.

Half Pint Brawlers is causing some controversy. Some people seem to think that it's exploiting the little people on the show.   Maybe it is. Everything on TV is exploiting something, however. Plus these guys seem to enjoy what they're doing, they're getting paid more than I get paid to wash dishes, so I think it's all okay. It's like when someone tells me a good looking woman is being exploited because she's posing nude in Playboy. At first I think, well that's sounds right. Then I remember that she's eating caviar in Hef's mansion while I'm sitting at home alone eating Kraft macaroni and cheese right out of the pot.

Speaking of Half Pint Brawlers:

I think we can all agree it's pretty much time to get rid of the guest hosts on RAW.   I don't see the point anymore with Bret Hart there. It doesn't seem to be getting the attention WWE wants. In fact, if you think way back to when this all started no one has got the attention that Donald Trump got. After that nobody in "mainstream" media gave a damn anymore.

Let us not forget that our good friend Linda McMahon is, in what seems like the world's longest campaign, still running for senate. Seriously, it feels like she announced her candidacy in 1998. Haven't thews folks in CT voted yet?   I guess not because our other good pal Phil Mushnick must have just found out she was running. He took it very well. He said:

And now, because money can do what money can do, she is the GOP frontrunner to become a U.S. Senator from Connecticut. How is it possible that anyone noble enough not to do dirt to kids, smart enough to read, write and vote, and wise enough to consider the uncontested leaders of a profession that produces early-death performers - so many of them in the employ of the McMahon's - could even consider Linda McMahon for any public office is beyond comprehension

Hasn't Mushnick watched Fox news?   They love people who do dirt to kids (whatever that means), and produce early-death performers.   Reading and writing is optional. Either way, let's face it. All rich people have to do is say "I want to be a senator" and they magically become senators. Look at Sonny Bono. He wasn't even that rich. As a matter of fact, all it took was for someone richer to say they wanted to become a senator and Sonny mysteriously died in a skiing accident. By mysteriously I mean he hit a tree. Or at least that's what the rich people want you to think.

Newman!
