Talkshow with Spike Feresten – No Fourth Season

May 8, 2009

Don’t know about you all… but I’ve had all the hope and change I need…

Did BO buy FOX now?

All humor aside… I sadly note that Talkshow with Spike Feresten will not be renewed for a fourth season.

The recent bonehead FOX suit decisions started with dumping MadTV.

And the most recent includes dumping Spike’s show.

Spike has truly cut a lot of new ground and the suits want the daily mush with no edge.

Let’s see… Wasn’t “In Living Color” on FOX ?  It rocked til the suits took control and poof.. gone.

Per Wikipedia  “Keenen Ivory Wayans left the show in 1992 after the end of the third season, over disputes with Fox about the network censoring the show’s content and rerunning early episodes without his consultation.”

More on this after I get over the shock of one of my fav programs going away.

Hang in there SF !

The Stink in Farts Controls Bloodpressure…

October 24, 2008

Hydrogen Sulfide…  I always thought I gave off methane… haha.   This evidently is given off by cells in your blood vessels… which helps relax them and lowers blood pressure…  interesting…to see where this leads…

http://www.livescience.com/health/081023-farts-blood-pressure.html

Now I can feel better about a big “paint peeler” fart….  Just lowering my blood pressure… the old fashioned way.

Props to Edythemighty for the scoop on this one.

McCain on Letterman… 10/16/08

October 17, 2008

“I screwed up”  says McCain about ditching Letterman for Couric,  in easily his best tv appearance so far.

Someone put up the opening monologue clip.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeYg736UiTM

Tina Fey Will Get the Republican Elected… Doh!

October 5, 2008

Could McCain shoot himself in the foot any better?  He has complimented “his opponent” like at least 5 times now.  Savage said a few days back that he had shot off all his toes and was standing on one hand now.

He won’t even try to deal with the 20 million invaders to the US.

He also voted (just like “his opponent”) to bail out the poor investments of others.. at tax payer expense.

He has Carly Fiorina on board… failed CEO..Buehler? anyone?

Enter Tina Fey.. as Sarah Pailn.

Savage thinks the averageness of Sarah Palin may save the ticket.

And Tina Fey pushes it right over the top… You betcha…  Joe Sixpack

Haha

Dude Farts on Cop

A guy farts on one of the cops during the fingerprinting process and gets additional charge of Battery on an Officer.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,427365,00.html

Props to Savage website which had a link to Fox news.   Well, at least we can giggle about something as the markets reel.

Savage Identifies Political Cross-Dressing

September 7, 2008

Michael Savage has been on a roll recently.   The latest is where the confusion between Republicans and Democrats is just overwhelming.   So, now the Republicans are embracing teenage pregnancy and the Democrats are rebuffing it..  I see.

Toss in Liberal Democrat George Bush and Straight Mex McCain making no effort at all to return the invaders to their country.   And there’s your Political Cross-Dressing.

________________________

Then as Savage noted, we are all suffering from PCD or PCDs (Post Convention Disorder syndrome)  Did Bush already print some fresh worthless money to fund a study of PCD?

________________________

Check out MichaelSavage.com for his autobiographical book “psychological nudity” with his selected life stories.

The print orders for getting the first edition of the book are extended to 9/11   2008.

McCain Picks Palin as Running Mate

August 31, 2008

Not Michael Palin from Monty Python…  Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

Savage was convinced on Friday that McCain and/or his handlers were trying to throw the election.   One bad move after another.  Her lack of experience was cited as making the “electablity” of this ticket weak.

Others have cited her stands on other issues as a plus.   We will see…

More to come as this unfolds.

***  Now the 17 year old daughter is unmarried and 5 months pregnant, but is gonna marry the boy.  Drama?

You just know she is gonna be on The View at some point.  The word “vetting” keeps coming up and with any more “unknown” information or oops…  Then we are back to McCain’s judgement.

But, please…that was lost when he wouldn’t make a commitment to even try to return the invaders… even the incarcerated ones…

So, this will end up as some “who is least liberal?” race.

And NONE of the media… (Not even Savage) is giving Nader a fair shake.   Please, this is a race FULL of novices now.

Obama Hussein Guevera Gets A on Speech… D on What’s Gonna Count

August 29, 2008

It felt kinda like watching how gracefully the Chinese executed the Olympics.   The pageantry was superb.   Unfortunately, you have to look no further than Nancy Pelosi’s “Fairness Act”, the “marriages” in San Fran, the 20 plus million invaders to the country that will still be here after the speech… prolly with better health care than me… what?

And still wondering where Jesse Jackson and Sharpton are… and when newly reprogrammed mommy will emerge.

Where did they do with Al Gore? haha   O yeah…  And then there’s Jimmy Carter that referred to Obama as… that boy?  What?

Still don’t wanna live in China or in that America… and hopefully straight Mex McCain will dump Carly Fiorina and grow some conservative values… yeah right.

Will seriously watch what Nader can put together this time….

Obama Picks Biden per Twitter

August 23, 2008

Then I went off to sleep… Something about VP’s and sleep.

Ok, I vote we take all the money they will waste campaigning and in Denver to go toward Liberal Democrat Bush’s debt and call this one for straight Mex McCain.

Wait, maybe McCain will pick even more interesting.

Mccain picks Col. Harlan Sanders…

A Few Words in Honor of Isaac Hayes…

August 11, 2008

Man o man, what a few weeks of losses in the entertainment field.   Just following the loss of legendary comedian and actor, Bernie Mac….  comes news of the passing of music artist and actor, Isaac Hayes.

My first exposure to his work, was hearing the theme to the private detective show Shaft.

http://www.last.fm/music/Isaac+Hayes/_/Theme+from+Shaft

Isaac’s music for that was truly iconic, even til this day.

My second exposure to his work was in his acting role as Hammer in the classic comedy movie from Keenan Ivory Wayans, I’m Gonna Git You Sucka.  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095348/

Prayers go out to his family and friends.

Such a sad string of losses: Tim Russert, George Carlin, Bernie Mac and now Isaac Hayes.  What a couple of months.  Eeek

Possible Side effects for this allergy medicine include… nosebleed or nasal sores. Nasal fungal infection, glaucoma, or cataracts may occur. Have regular eye exams. Do not spray in eyes.

Gee dad, maybe I can tough out those allergies one more summer…. http://www.veramyst.com/

Heidi Fleiss on Eliot Spitzer… Nightline Terry Moran

March 11, 2008

A very surreal interview where Terry Moran checks in with Heidi Fleiss to better understand the recent alegations and public acknowledgements of the Democratic governor from New York.  What drives a man to do this?

What I learned was…

- It’s been going on since Adam and Eve (Eve was a hoe? wow…)

- Men just wanna get laid (check)

- She wants a governor that gets laid (me too)

-  It’s every man, men think about sex 99% of the time (I barely have time to eat…)

- Her issue with what happened was that he was a zealot and then involved in it (fair enough)

- He could have gone the Bunny Ranch (Where is that again?)

- prostitution needs to be regulated, make it fair

That Terry Moran just clears it right up.

http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=4427996&affil=ktrk

*** Heidi Fleis was just in the news in Nevada a few weeks back btw….

http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSN0742475720080208

*** This just in… fifty super delegates just switched their votes  to Eliot Spitzer

More to come on this as it’s available.

Job Ad Tip-off…

March 5, 2008

that THIS job would suck.

“There are two paid 10-minute breaks and one unpaid 18-minute lunch break”

Yes, that’s 18 stop watch minutes..

Any moron would have the decency to call it a 20 min lunch.

Let’s see $4.20 gas in California, this jewel of an employer and Hil or Mex McCain…. Good Times….

Tom Green on Jimmy Kimmel Live…

February 14, 2008

Tom and Jimmy reviewed how it is to have a TV show….in your living room.

Jimmy quipped that Tom… is actually on house arrest with an ankle bracelet.

Tom related some stories from back in the day when his parents car was decorated and how the new technology on cam corders helped document things.

and another story from back in the Bill C administration where they had Monica Lewinsky up to Ottawa and his dad met Monica to shake hands in the middle of the night…..and dad (used to Tom’s antics) just took it all in stride.

They looked at a clip from a recent guest on Tom’s show…. Flava Flave…. Tom bustin some serious rap too…. I need to go check that out on

I’m F’ing Matt Damon

February 1, 2008

And in the grander scheme of things…aren’t we all?

Pretty funny bit courtesy of Sarah Silverman (video with Matt Damon) on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Surely everyone knows by now that she is Jimmy’s woman. Perhaps the perfect nerdy Jew woman. haha (And don’t forget the Maxim mag gig…)

She has carved a niche with her bizarre style and cadence. There’s always an extended delay…where you get a chance to wonder…where is she going with this?…and then boom…the next punch line.

Was pretty cool for Matt to drop the “Sorry Jimmy, we ran out of time”….line…hahah

Good stuff. Congrats to Jimmy on the anniversary/birthday etc. and to Sarah on her show (and awards) and upcoming gig in Vegas Feb 23.

And Welcome to Men on Politics…

January 29, 2008

the show that takes a look at politics….from a male…..point of view….

first up… Big ole Teddy Kennedy huggin around on cute lil Barack Obama ….like a big ole teddy bear.

this could be a story of a growing relationship of a seasoned older man sharing his experience with a tender, younger man….

I think America’s ready for that….

…I know I am….

next up…

and then there was Hillary Clinton…

…. I was impressed that the director would cast a man in that role….

… O, no…Hillary Clinton…. is a woman…

… What a sneaky thing to do…

*** Just an artist impression in honor of In Living Color.

and here’s the actual show.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWdL9mrYNmQ&feature=related

We really really really need Keenan to re-introduce that show or a similar show…. OJ is back in the news. in living color…

The State of the Union…

January 29, 2008

The Democrats did a lot of up and down, standing and clapping for Bush,,, that seemed odd…

Then…. there was Darth and Nancy… Nancy Pelosi had her head down quite a lot… reading the commencement flier?…looking like a whipped pup. She stood and clapped right along with the other Dems…

although…her timing to get up and down always had an annoying delay like the “Applause” sign for the audience was broken.

… then there was President Bush. He kept smirking and seemed just way too giddy.

… In recent speeches, especially the angry Bush ones from the Rose Garden, I keep thinking Bush is gonna bust out,,,
…”Live form New York,,,It’s Saturday Night!!!!!”

One dude in the audience… was Mr. Jowls.

I don’t recall any boos this time. Matter of fact I kept hearing what sounded like drunken frat boys going ….”Hey!!!!!……Ho…
…”Hey!!!!!……Ho……… Hip Hip,,Hoorey,,,,Ho….Hey …. Ho…..

… and then as Bush left, he signed like every person theres lil commencement flier…. He gave out more autographs than LaBron James…. and to mostly Democrats… so these are going on Ebay?

and the Democrat Response from Governor Kathleen Sebelius… Started out nice and calm and stayed so with…
Mr. President… Let’s all get to work… and then just turned into random words from the Thesaurus

No Stimulus for You!… and others wait til May

January 25, 2008

Sadly, if you made less than $3000 in 2007, you will NOT get a dime under the current Stimulus package. These people are too poor to spend this on necessities?

Unemployment benefits that ran out…will stay run out.

Looks like the current version will give a tax Rebate of taxes paid up to $600 for singles now…..but you wont even get stimulated til May or June.

$50 billion in incentives for businesses to buy new equipment… (No, …..you have to put the equipment in a business still located in the US…yeah)

I keep hoping that I misread something on this….
Now it has to go through the House and Senate… Perhaps, some help for those making less than $3000 or with their unemployment depleted…

According to Theory…Spike Will Be Back Jan 12

January 11, 2008

Per the Myspace for the show, TalkShow with Spike Feresten will be back January 12, 2008 just as other Late night talk shows have done.

Im noting that this was from a corporate dude, just like the announcement about Spike on the New Years gig…. and NOT from Spike.

Im sure the politics and stress of the business side of the entertainment business and coming back without writers is not fun. Should be interesting…

Best of luck Spike!.
___________________

Show was man on the street stuff with Spike and promoting two FOX shows coming soon. (Game show..Moment of Truth which they demoed with a member of the audience. That was probably the funniest part of the show. The other was a new Terminator follow-up) Spike made the comment that they were reluctantly returning…and the announcement on the Myspace was from a corporate dude and not Spike. Im sure this whole thing is just awkward and ugly and opposite of the creative and fun that Spike would rather focus on. Uggh

January 8, 2008

Which implies that the people of New Hampshire want that…if they don’t vote for her?…

Oddly enough we haven’t had to hear James Carville rattling on about Clinton strategy…..yet.
One can only hope this is over soon. Maybe down to Obama and Edwards.

And… could we really fall or rise that much? One could argue that we’d fall further if she wins…
