Did anyone catch last night's episode of THE REAL WORLD??

If you haven't, then don't read the following SPOILERS:



Boy, do I hate Kevin, now!!  He really has a problem and needs major
therapy!  I think Julie put it absolutely perfect when she said the
he's hung up with this 'Black' vs. 'White' thang..

I swear I thought he was going to hit her, especially in that argument
held outside of the apartment.  And what about the fight between him
and Norman??  Did anyone believe Kevin?  I just can not understand why
Julie would make up the stuff she said Kevin did to her, that's why
I believe her.

And that party at the end of the episode!! Looks like some trouble heading
for Heather B.  I read about this happening in a magazine.  According to
the MTV producers, they were so upset that they hadn't caught Heather
slapping that girl on film, that they actually asked her to do it again!
I think once was enough for Heather.  Can charges be brought on against
her for slapping somenone??

Can't wait till next week,
Gilbert


p.s.  Anyone know how many episodes are left?  I think the last episode will
air on August 13th - so I guess that makes it 3 episodes left!! It sure
will be a sad day when it happens!!

Cheap plug for the quarterly Columbo Newsletter that has recently started.
Each issue features an in-depth analysis of one Columbo movie (they're doing
them in order, so they're still on the very first season) plus a few articles
of general interest written by subscribers.  Article submissions are accepted
from anybody; the only qualification you need is to know the show.

Subscriptions are $3 an issue, which comes to $12 a year.

They're hurting for subscribers (which is why I'm doing this), so if you
enjoyed the show, particularly its original run, and you'd like the chance
to learn a little more about it, drop them a line.

OK, here's a clue:  Stern is FUNNY.

 >His humor is obviously forced, i.e., just saying things considered 
 >outrageous is his form of humor.

The only thing "obvious" about that statement is that you have 
clearly never seen or heard any meaningful sampling of his material. 


-{ Dean Adams }-


Well, I was in a van pool for 3 monthes that listened to him every morning
for 45 minutes.  In all that time, I never heard him say anything funny,
He would say something shocking and his idiot sidekick (what was her name)
would laugh (and it always sounded like a fake laugh)

If three monthes is not a meaningful sample of his material, he is even
worse than I thought.  And I thought he was pretty bad.

Of course, the sad thing is that I was a minority of one, because everyone
else in that van pool also seemed to think he was funny.  He would say 
something shocking and they would laugh and I would seriously ask why it
was funny and they would look at me with that stupid "don't you get it?"
look on their faces.  I never got it.

I'm amazed I lasted 3 monthes in that van pool, in retrospect they were nice
people, they never kicked me out for telling them how awful I though Howard
Stern was :-)

Never say never.  And never shout never.  Especially on the

The original poster was correct:  The original show had a
cover version of Billy Joel's "My Life" as its theme.  He was
correct.

*70's* if you please.  My view is that Jimmy Perry and David Croft
sitcoms are *so* blatant in their use of stereotypes and innuendo that
they elevate the funny-form to a higher plane.  The "so bad it's good"
syndrome, if you will.  A form much exploited by the Carry On movies of
the 60s and 70s also, often to hilarious effect.  But then I'm an unPC
tasteless git.

Was the "My Life" cover used the first season?  I had just assumed
that maybe this was the first season opening and it would change later on.

Hello there!!

Sky News in England had a film of the torch lighting at the XXV
Olympiad.  First they showed what everyone inside the stadium saw.
The archer shoots the arrow, it flies into the torch, and the torch
lights.

Then they showed a film taken outside the stadium.  You see the
flaming arrow come in from the left of the picture, fly OVER the
torch, which lights up anyway, while the flaming arrow disappears
off to the right of the picture!!!

Bad news for everyone who actually believed the archer lit the torch
during the opening ceremony of the XXV Olympics.

Do you know what the word "accuse" means?  It means "to charge
with a fault; to find fault with, blame, censure"; to accuse
someone _of_ something means "to charge with the crime or fault 
of something".

Now do you understand why I found the article offensive?

Is it my imagination, or is the political content of Leno's 
Tonight show monologue a lot higher than either his or Johnny's used to be?  
The current formula seems to be:

       60%  jokes about Bush & Quayle
       30%  jokes about Clinton, Gore, Brown, & Ted Kennedy 
       10%  jokes about other celebrities & general American culture 

Plus a lot of the humor seems to generate applause rather than 
laughter.

I've been watching the morning coverage before I go to work, and is
it just me, or do Dick Enberg and Katie Couric seemed hopelessly mismatched?
I mean, every dialogue they have seems scripted, like the lame thing when
Enberg pulled a yellow card out of his pocket after Couric said something
about how he would look bald. Enberg really seems out of place with the
younger athletes, and I don;t notice any chemistry between him and Katie.

While I'm complaining, let me say that I also hate those stupid rock videos
and especially the guy afterwards that says "Hey, wasn't that a great 
INXS video?" and then tries to sell us Coca-Cola. I also think NBC is
going to lose their ass on this triplecast thing, I heard this morning
they will be giving away 4 free hours to try to get people to buy

Taekwondo was a demonstration sport at the Seoul Olympics in Korea as
well as these olympics. I beleive they were pushing hard for it to be 
included as an official optional sport. The problem is that there are
two world bodies and a meeting in the US about who should be allowed to
enter and who was the proper controlling body came to blows, so the 
Olympic committee have turned down including it.
Rec.martial-arts had a little on this a while ago. It could have been 
an interesting meeting to watch :-) (Ban meetings as a "Blood sport"?)
