Link to the Show / Show NotesOn the docket this week:
-It's Kinda Like Cat Litter and Dead Celebrities
-It's About Frankin Time
-Conan, What Is Best in Life (and Other Tortured Sports Metaphors)
-Something Vaguely Entertaining
We begin the show with a desperate attempt to avoid laughing at the Boy's silliness. That almost works.
Getting the train on track, we talk about Death's busy week, running down the list of our recently deceased celebrities. Listen to our tributes (such as they are) to Ed McMahon, Billy Mays, Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Steve McNair. We also digress into the legalities of Margaritaville, Sanguinist's lack of belonging to Generation X, and the negative connotations of the term Millennial.
We then congratulate Al Frankin on finally, finally, finally taking his seat in the Senate before quickly looking at recent Supreme Court decisions. Largo and the Boy then vamp for time while Sanguinist takes a call, then we get back to bashing Norm Coleman and the media's insistence on pointing out that Frankin was a comedian before becoming a public servant. We then look at other comedians that we'd like to see get into politics.
Sanguinist then moves us over to Sarah Palin's impending resignation as governor of Alaska and we ponder just why she chose to do so. We then branch out into politics in general (as we are wont to do.)
The Boy and Sanguinist move us into Something Vaguely Entertaining by previewing Starcraft 2, sorta, before we move on to discussion about how many development houses have been bought out and bastardized as well as speculating about how to step up the fighting game genre to the next level. Largo then closes out the topic with a review of the Central Pennsylvania 4th Fest fireworks show (and potential uses for discount fireworks.)
