It's gonna be war!... Or a snooze...

Goooood morning Boys and Girls.


Here in Michigan tonight, we're hosting the 2037th debate of the current presidential campaign; this one featuring the Republicans and brand spankin' new debater, Fred Thompson, known to his wrestling fans - as opposed to fans of his acting - as "The Tenacious Bulldog."

Many people fondly remember Fred's tactic of waiting around the outside of the ring during any number of those made for pay-per-view wrestling epics wherein a dozen or more wrestlers take each other on - in a cage, or on the roof of a very tall building, or - my favorite - within the confines of a small snake-filled pit of some sort where the surrounding fence is electrified - until a single champion emerged, standing proud, even if scratched and weary - his newly acquired belt held high for everyone to see.

Bulldog would usually wait to enter the fray until only one or two wrestlers were left, spending his time prior to getting involved walking extremely slowly around the outside of the venue using an index finger to tap at his temple, while he pointed at his own chest with the other one, all this while grinning a toothy grin and saying virtually nothing of substance. Even then I remember the lettering on the back of his robe reading, "I don't know much about anything, but at least I'm conservative - just like Reagan. You DO remember Reagan don't you?"

It would have been hard to read all that on a flowing robe, but he walked so slowly - without any apparant enthusiam - that it made it easier.

Welcome to Michigan boys!


Be good to everyone.
