Hat-Trick!!!

OMG!!!  I can't believe this!!!  Two deaths and an indictment all on the same day!!!   It just doesn't get any better than this...

DATELINE:  Royal Oak, MI.  Dr. Jack Kevorkian is dead at the age of 83.  He died of natural causes.  How strange is that???  Is it just me, or did he really start looking a lot like the character Max Shreck played in the F. W. Murnau 1922 black and white classic silent film "Nasferatu" in his last years???  Instant creepy.  But I have to say, I loved this man and everything that he stood for and for making us open our eyes and finally look at reality.

DATELINE:  Brentwood, CA.  Actor James Arness has died at the age of 88.  Best known for two acting roles, the Monster in the 1951 black and white classic, "The Thing" and Marshall Matt Dillon on "Gunsmoke" from 1955 till 1975.  On "Gunsmoke" he showed us a kinder and gentler lawman than we had ever seen in a Western.   He would pull his six-shooter out at the drop of a hat but he rarely actually fired it.  He preferred to negotiate his way out of a situation with out blood shed if possible.  In the middle of 1870's Dodge City, Kansas.  Speaking of Kansas, does anyone else recall that there was NEVER a tornado in the 20 years that the show aired?  It was freaking KANSAS!!!  There should have been at least 3 or 4 per season!!!  And what the hell was up with Marshall Dillon and Miss Kitty???   He was the Marshall and she was the towns Madame!!!   The Long Branch "Saloon" was a whorehouse for god's sakes!!!   And what about Sam, the bartender???  How much of a slice was she cutting him???   How niave were we as a viewing audience???  A bit of trivia:  the character of Miss Kitty was originally a native of New Orleans yet she had NO Southern drawl (WTF???),  James  Arness  stood 6',  6"  tall,  he took the roll of Matt Dillon after John Wayne turned it down and he was the brother of actor Peter Graves.

DATELINE:  Winston-Salem, N.C.  Former Senator and Presidential candidate John Edwards has just left a couple of skid marks in his shorts as he pleads not guilty to a Federal indictment of illegally soliciting $925,000.00 to cover up, hide and bury under a rock in the back yard any and all evidence that he cannot keep his brain zipped up.  I'm talking about the sewer he is now up to his eyeballs in concerning the fact that he knocked up his mistress, had a love child and then tried to keep it secret.  All while his wife was battling cancer!!!  What a SLUDGEBALL!!!
And I don't say that about a lot of Democrats.  Yes, he's just a cute as a button.  Yes, I would have done him.  Hell, I still would, he's just that cute.  But, HE FUCKED AROUND ON HIS WIFE WHILE SHE WAS DYING and then did the most Republican thing I can imagine.  He not only lied about it, he tried to cover it up.  And now he's pleading not guilty to using hush money to make it all go away as he hid her in the Bahamas.  Oh, yeah, that little love child is gonna be really proud of her father.   $925,000.00???  For gods sake, for that kind of cash I could have bought a couple of homes, several new cars, gotten a nose job,  have managed to make Romania disappear and still would have a nest egg in the bank.  You need better "handlers", dude!!!  What the bloody fuck were you thinking???   What a turd!!!  Who the hell do you think you are???  A Kennedy???

With that, Ladies and Germs and all ships at sea, I close tonights broadcast as the grill is fired up and the blender is  going at full speed.   Wish me luck, this could be a disaster in progress.  Thankfully Sea Squirt has 911 on speed dial...   That's always a comfort...  Refer to the previous post...
