We return today at the beginning of December, and what a screwed up world we live in.- "My Space" or "Dumb Mistake"? Here's the story of a teenage girl dealing with an eating disorder, a lack of friends, and a desire for attention from a boy. The only problem here is that there was no boy. As it turns out, parents of the girlfriend down the street pretended to be the make-believe boyfriend. At the end, things got nasty and the girl ended up hanging herself in the closet. As of today, no charges have been filed against anyone. In other words, do whatever you want on the Internet...Ain't America THEE PLACE TO BE?
- Up next: The Hulkster. While his family circle falls apart, Terry "Hulk" Bollea seeks tranquility from a case of aluminum cans while recovering from the "piledriver" that his wife gave him. Seems as though the VH-1 reality series Hogan Knows Best didn't take his son Nick into account. What do you give a 17 year old kid who has everything? A carload of Miller Lite and the keys to a Dodge Viper where the kid can smash it up and hit another car. All the while, Nick hung on and no beer was spilled. While the Hulkster awaits charges for contributing to the delinquincy of a minor, Mrs. Hogan cashed in the chips with their marriage and wants to keep the kids away from Dad by moving to California. Hogan promises that his wife won't get a penny in the end. Meanwhile, Hulkster puts his marital problems on the back burner as he focuses...not on "Rasslin" but, on the revival of American Gladiators coming soon to NBC.
Now, when you leave a doodie in the toilet...a messy one that swirls around and around and doesn't go down, you think of Mr. Whipple from those old TV commercials. He would throw a fit if you squeezed his toilet paper however, he squeezed and squeezed like there was no tommorrow. Mr. Whipple died last week. He was in his 90's. Call me crazy but, as he rests in peace, this gentleman's name will always be associated with shit. The next time you wipe, do it for Mr. Whipple!
Evel Knieval died last week too! This was a guy who did stupid stunts that half the time didn't work as planned. His red, white, and blue jumpsuit was a perfect fit for 1976 Bi-Centenial celebrations. Evel cheated death a number of times and retired a number of times. Climbing into a rocket with hopes of flying over the Grand Canyon wasn't just a big deal...it was downright friggin' NUTS! I knew the guy was gonna be in trouble from when Evel's rocket cycle that I had for a toy, failed to lift off the linoleum kitchen floor. One thing he was good at and never lost was going home, getting drunk, and using his wife as a punching bag. He went through three wives and in his later years, went after Kanye West who used his likeness in a music video. Surviving family members include his son, Robbie.
