I am seeing the steady deterioration of a once-great thread. The subject has changed from Micron and Compaq to suit sales and the WWF. It's gone from the legendary Steve (whatever happened to that sphincter?) to Rick Flair. Speaking of WWF, it's definitely too stoopiddd even for me and I'm someone who definitely likes his daily dose of stoopiddd. BUT does anyone remember the WWF back in the late 70s. Tres campy. Fred Blassie, Capt. Lou Albano and the Grand Wizard. Piss your pants laughing. Of course, the matches sucked, but the interviews were priceless. Now, it's just stoopiddd, while lacking the hilarity. I remember a young Vince unable to keep a straight face while standing there, in bedroom slippers, interviewing Blassie. It was "Lost in Space" in tights. Ah, how money corrupts.
Speaking of pissing my pants, I almost did so whilst reading a novel by Matt Beaumont entitled "e" (anyone know a shorter title?). If you guessed email, go to the head of the class. Epistle-type novel as seen entirely through the email of an fictitious advertising agency. Be prepared for mucho laughing out loud; in places, I cried I laughed so hard. Bookoo hilarious. |
