One thing has always bugged me about Leave it to Beaver. Mostly it was an innocent family show. Every week, Beaver would get into a little bit of trouble, nothing too bad. Then his father, Ward, would take him into the study, have a talk with him, and they'd both learn some sort of lesson. There were times; however, when talking with June that a dark countenance would come across Ward's face, and Ward would say something about his own father. It was usually a veiled hit that his dad might have hit him a little too much a little too often. This is, I think, why he tried his best to never be too hard on the Beaver*. He was trying to make up for his father's mistakes.   (Note that Ward's brother, Uncle Billy, was a notorious drunk and liar--having found his own way to deal with their father's abuse). Well, this week HHH was hard on the Beaver . . . I mean the Nash.   He's been fired. Or something like that. I don't know. I really wasn't paying attention.

The real news is that Kurt Angle has signed a new three year deal with TNA.   His neck, however, is still in negotiations.   Part Angle's contract stipulates:   "This time I get to marry Jeff's wife." He also said that signing with TNA will allow him to do more movies than if he were in WWE.   Good to hear! Now Kurt can continue doing all of those movies.

Jeff Hardy returns to action on Impact tonight as well. By action, I mean drugs.

There are people out there wondering if this Nash thing is a work or a shoot. It's a work. Everything is a work. It should be a shoot, but it's not. Now the only thing we're left to wonder is if Nash really sent the text to himself or if he and HHH are in this together. They're in it together, but that's not the point. The point is that I've sent all kinds of crazy text messages while blotto drunk and some of them have been to myself. I can't remember it, so they should probably go that route. It makes sense anyway.

You know why I also know this is a work?   Because Nash tweeted that he passed his physical with flying colors.   Still, the real take away here is that much of this angle is taking place in the world of Twitter. That seems to be where creative thinks the future lies. They may be right. It does add a bit of realism.   I worry about what is next though. Are wrestlers going to start feuding because one of the unfriended the other on Facebook?   Or maybe Cena will challenge Christian because Christian keeps sending him too many of those damned Farmville requests.   I don't know. It's a brave new world, children. I wonder what Ward would have done.

That's about it for me this week. I'm too worried about Nash being out of a job to write anymore. Times are tough all around. My new book, Like a Fish, will be published by Sundress Publications next month. Make sure to pick up a copy. It's poetry. That's right, poetry. Get some freakin' culture people.
