Well, you just explained Howards show since day one! These are the things
that made him so great.

But I guess not to you!

Overall, I thought that BBF sucked as well. Although there were
a couple of laughs, as a whole, I did not find it to be very
entertaining.

As far as Howard goes, he's only been on the air here in 
Chicago a couple of months or so, and I am not too impressed.
Somethimes his morning show can be funny, but much of it just
seems boring and pointless. 

I don't see how he could have become #1 anywhere!

I don't know how he was in the early years. Maybe he once was
a funny guy, but what I've heard over the last few months has
not been very good.

Basically his show consists of:

1) Howard telling us how he is so much better than all the other
DJs and how they all suck.

   (if this is true, then why does he need to keep reminding us?)

2) Howard bitching about the FCC.

   (he makes some sence here, but this is getting stale)

3) Howard bitching at and about his staff and how they can't do
anything right.

4) Howard bitching about the quality of the telephones and 
transmitting equipment.

5) Howard telling us how great his "Butt Bongo Fiesta" tape is.
 (while those of us who've seen it know how bad it really is)

6) Occasional moments of comedy and humor.


And that's about it. I don't know about everyone else, but when
I wake up in the morning, the last thing I care to do is listen to
a guy who sounds like he is on the rag 90% of the time.

Well I finally did it (yup Schneid I did it), I went to Long Island and
went to Howard's house (the address someone had posted here a while ago.
I saw the estate he lives in.  It's right off the LIE (Long Island
Expressway) and I took pictures in fron of the security gate etc.  His
house is really set back so all that you can see is the roof of the
house and this huge backyard.  Anyhow, it was quite an expereience for
me as I live for Howard for he is my God.  If anyone wants to repeat my
journey, just email me and I'll give directions. I WILL NOT post his
address however...that is a matter of privacy that everyone does not
have to see.  

BTW, I did not see HS or loiter in front of the security camera at the
gate or anything.

Enough of this already!

Judaism is *not* a race, it is a religion and a culture. 
You are either jewish or you are not.

If someone tells me they are half asian, half caucasian,
it makes sense to me.  Half Catholic, half Budhist does not.

Many people of different colors consider themeselves jews and
practice the religion.  The "original" jews were a varied lot
of middle-easterners.

In any case, Howard's plea that he is only half a jew is part of
his act.  Othodox Jewish law states that the child's religion
follows that of the mother.  Strictly speaking, if Howard's mother
was not Jewish at the time of his birth, then he is not a jew at all.

Hey.........!!!! What's the fax number for the show?????  I have an 
extremely funny article from the Enquirer about Spike Lee and his 
relationship to his whitey step-mom.  Basically , he is quoted as saying
that inter-racial relationships are evil, and that white women who date
blacks are "muglys"  (what a dick), and have no lives, and basically 
deserve to die.

This nibbler really hates ol' man whitey....but, maybe, since he says 
that white women that date blacks are losers, isn't he really insulting
blacks, or am I confused??? Sounds like something a KKKer would say.......

Also, there was a really funny blurb about Disney asking Eddie Murphy to
come down to Orlando for a quick promotion of The Distinguished Gentleman,
and EM said he would'nt do it unless Disney Flew 40 of his flunkies down 
first class, as well as giving them 40 separate hotel rooms.  (Disney did
it, at a cost of over $100,000+!!!!)............

Howard's E! show was *repeated* 3 hours later at 10pm (PST).
Has anyone else caught other showings of the program?

They damn well didn't have the decency to repeat that one 3-hours

Given that you say that your cable company is in the 70's as far as
technology I must assume it is a TCI company.  TCI controls the vast
majority of the cable outlets.  Now that there is preasure from phone
companies entering the cable business and also from the bill passed by
congress about cable fees - all of the sudden TCI has 'discovered' a
technology that can show 500+ channels thru existing cable.  They will
widely deploy this technology in late '93.

Every channel you might want will be available then.  Of course this
is the oportunity for the cable company to screw you even more.  The
Basic, Super Basic, Basic Plus and all other versions of Basic rates
will be tiered as to what you can see.  HBO and Showtime are already
sending three channels each to allow people to timeshift their offerings.
This is a total waste since they don't broadcast anything different
between the channels they are just doing this as a convienience for
people that can't figure out how to record anything on their VCR.

The cable companies also think they can cash in on Pay Per View by
offering over 20 channels on weekends for College Football, Pro Football,
and baseball games from out of town agendas.

flu->uog?  even reversed, that sounds non-wordlike...
leo->ovl?
men->nvm?  are you doing this the same way I am?
ghost->tslhg?  Are you skipping the central letter?

 egrep -v '[A-Z]' </usr/dict/words >/tmp/words
 tr a-z zyxwvutsrqponmlkjihgfedcba </tmp/words | rev >/tmp/wurds
 sort /tmp/wurds | comm -12 - /tmp/words | egrep '..' | pr -5 -l20 -t

On a UNIX system, that will give you all words which map onto other ones.
The first line takes out all the acronyms and other capitalized stuff. 
The second line is your transformation (a...z maps onto z...a) and a
reversal operation.
The third finds words which are in both lists, takes out one-letter
words, and formats the list:

are           mild          wold
bevy          re            word
bid           shrilly       worn
big           trig          writ
bird          try           wry
boorish       vi
by            viz
grid          wild
grit          wiry
lo            wizard

And there's "wizard".  Gee.  ("wild" maps to "word", "boorish" to "shrilly";
picking out of those words that map to themselves, like "wizard", is
left as an exercise for the reader.)

Not quite the same results you got, but I think I'm using a different
algorithm or something.

It's a most amazing story - and one for the future.  Maybe Bonnie
will write it, herself, some day.  She's now the President of her
own production company, Creative License.  And her husband is Alan
Kay (NO relation to my e.b.p.), of Apple/Voyager fame.

TRON's visuals were directed and saved (from what I've heard) by
the renegade determination of John Van Vliet (who did the ghost
effects for GHOST), and his small band of overworked non-union
imagineers.

That trailer was the best part of the movie.

No, different executives.  I, and Deven Chierighino, Doug Crepeau,
Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle all came up with several dozen
endings to The Black Hole.  Doug's ending was exceptional, I know,
and would have made a magnificent finale...(but, sort of like
adding a peacock tail to a garden slug).

None of these were used.

And the film was _very_ well named.

Good story about this, too.  As well as good endings.  I even came
up with an ending that would have saved WATCHER IN THE WOODS, and
made it a SEQUEL to THE BLACK HOLE.  Believe It or Not!

Another one for the future...   I'm outta here!
