I news anchor was talking about some new item for sale at a local fast food chain and priced at, not three-fifty, but the anchor actually said "three-fiddy".
WTH?!

Jun 11, 2007 08:13 am Let's hope Colbert picks it up!
Jun 11, 2007 08:19 am jim, not sure of the name, but it was the guy co-anchor on fox news in the morning.
Jun 11, 2007 01:25 pm brian kilmeade? the black haired guy who is not steve doocy and whose eyes are too close together and who is into sports?
Jun 12, 2007 02:14 am yet another reason not to watch fox ladies and gents.
Jun 12, 2007 06:30 am pfffffft...get off the "they lean so far right" bandwagon, it's so tired...just cuz every other channel leans left it throws off the scale. Get a grip.
This was the guy www.myfoxtwincities.com/m...mp;pageId=5.3.1
Jun 12, 2007 08:16 pm And how can they be bad when they send this chick oot to ride this thing?

Every neighborhood should have one of these.
Jun 12, 2007 08:19 pm Dude, M.A. Rosko is like my favorite "journalist" of all friggin time.
I'd so hit it.
Jun 12, 2007 09:25 pm wow, that picture quality is real nice...
and that 'bike' just looks strange with ppl facing one way, and the thing is gooin' another.
i dug the chick in the brown shirt with blond braids.
Jun 12, 2007 09:50 pm WYD, I take it you didn't catch the part about it being a PUB on wheel's. You can serve beer on the thing.
dB, though I don't get to watching too much TV indeed she is worth "hitten".
Jun 13, 2007 04:01 am I'm personally mourning professional journalism in all of its forms. Ever since we had a front page story (top of the page, no less) in the Sunday paper about Hooters doing away with "School-Girl Thursdays," I've just given up hope.
Granted, I was very disappointed to see School-Girl Thursdays go, but that's still not front-page news...
Jun 13, 2007 04:17 am well aside from the too far right thing.... which is true... fox does not have anything i would consider to be quality programming.

Does any network channel have decent programming, I would suggest no. There is very few decent shows on network TV at all...

Yeah, God forbid one channel not be leaning left...
I find it funny that people still beat the "Fox news is too conservative" about a channel that braodcasts The Simpsons, American Dad, Family Guy, Ultimate Fighting and other such shows.
Jun 13, 2007 08:59 pm And Fox has Nascar, what more could a guy want?
Jun 13, 2007 09:04 pm Q: Why do rednecks do it doggy style?
A: So both of them can watch NASCAR.
Jun 13, 2007 09:10 pm OOOOHHH! good one...
i think the "fox is far right" mostly applies to the Fox News Channel...very different than the network's content.
i say throw your television out the window, and notice i didn't say tv, tv is a nickname and nicknames are for friends, and television is certainly no friend of mine. *mr. show quote*
i've been without a tv for 4 years now *pat myself on the back* and i don't miss it one bit....of course i'm out of the loop when all my friends talk about the latest commercial or show or whatever.
Jun 13, 2007 09:25 pm If you have an outhouse with a TV antenna on top...
You might be a redneck.
Jun 13, 2007 09:28 pm heh, my parents have a tv (with cable) in the b/r...really, i guess IF there were a place for it, that's not a bad one....reading works for me.
Jun 13, 2007 09:44 pm True, the can would be the perfect place to truly express my feelings on the quality of the programming.

What's this I hear? Just peaked my interest. Gonna check out the link now.
Jun 14, 2007 10:44 am Bwahahaha, I think I just found a way to get to and from the pub :)
Jun 14, 2007 08:39 pm dB, that is funny as hell. I gotta find me a woman who likes Nascar. :-O
Jun 18, 2007 06:20 am i gotta find me a British channel that covers NASCAR! our equivalent is rubbish...
Jun 18, 2007 08:20 am The Brits would have to lose a whole lotta class to bring NASCAR over there...
We Americans have no problem losing class. Sometimes we brag about it. Kinda like when I crop-dusted the halls at work yesterday and laughed about it later with friends...
Jun 18, 2007 10:09 am I disagree. There was a news person somewhere, thinking that nascar fans were a bunch of no-good-nics, beer-swilling, troublemakers.
( i'm struggling to remember the exact details . . . but the message is the same )
He thought he'd set up a sting, wherein he'd 'accidentally' loose his wallet, with camera's rolling from afar, and watch some hill-billy steal it.
To his suprise, not one person stole the wallet, instead, each one actively getting the wallet back to the guy, and being polite, courteous, etc.
The guy was somewhat shocked, and enlightened, that the class of people at nascar events was rather high.
If anyone can remember the exact event, please post, as I don't think I got it exactly correct. But it was something very similar, anyway.
Jun 18, 2007 12:09 pm This is the kind of thing that breeds bad vocabulary.
If I hear "Conversated" again, I'm going postal....
Jun 18, 2007 12:15 pm Noize always uses the word "irregardless" which drives me up a friggin wall.
Jun 18, 2007 12:18 pm don't get "class" and "honesty" confuddled as being synonymous.
You can have a whole lot of class, and not be the most honest person. Although, honesty does affect class a bit... but they aren't the same. People who work for what they have seem to be a bit more honest about stealing other people's stuff. Those who steal what they have, well we all know what they do...
Jun 18, 2007 01:06 pm just to touch on the political bias of new shows... ahem ahem, in my opinion, this news shows lean to the left stuff is a crock. It leans to the right, and FOX news leans waaaaaay to the right. but that's just my opinion.
and how anyone can watch NASCAR or golf, and be excited by it is beyond me. Now crash up derby, that's entertainment!
Jun 18, 2007 01:10 pm Don't a lot of people watch NASCAR with the hope that it'll become a crash-up derby? That'd be the only reason for me.
Jun 18, 2007 09:36 pm I only watch hockey in hopes that there'll be a fistfight. Is that the same thing?
Jun 18, 2007 09:41 pm My daughter and I love going to the local races, small track, but she loves it...and surprisingly, not the crashes, but the races.
Jun 18, 2007 09:46 pm those 1/4 mile track races are a good time. I finally got to go to some last year, it was a blast. Made me want to go get a junker car, throw a big block in it and get involved...
Jun 18, 2007 10:46 pm Flame, the UK has some stellar racing of its own if you ask me. But heck ya, Nascar in the UK would be killer!
And indeed, the class of the type of stock car racing fan has changed over time. The track dB is talking about is a little south of us. There is a closer track that is a bit on the dingy side that is a little bull ring a bit under a 1/4 mile. Elko which is just short of a half mile is the track dB is talking about. Its the one the boyz and I go to pretty regular and they have really done it up nicely. Clean, nice seating and some pretty interesting change ups throughout the season. If you want to see stuff getting wrecked then go to one of the Eve of Destruction nights. If you wanna see good racing go on the regular season Saturday nights. The boyz are trying to talk me into building one of the Legands class cars. Little jobbers powered by 1000cc Yamaha engines and pushing a hell of a lot of horse power for a car that maybe weighs in at 500 pounds. They are almost faster then the big V8 powered late model beasts that compete on the midwest touring circuit.
Regardless it is just good clean fun.
See dB, I can use it proper like when I want to.
Jun 18, 2007 11:55 pm lol your av seems appropriate!
i like race cars that blow up, hockey players with blood on their face, unconscious bull riders, and basketball/baseball/soccer brawls....
man why don't they have a 'sports highlights' show like that yet?!!
Jun 19, 2007 09:01 am WYD, you should take the idea to spike TV. Granted, they'll probably just steal it and you'll get nothing out of the deal.... lol.

And yet you don't like mixed martial arts combat...very odd...
Jun 19, 2007 04:05 pm yeah, that's cuz the fights are expected...now if one dies on the mat....that may perk my interest for a few mins....
not that i wish pain/death on sports ppl....i'm simply just not interested...performance athletics IS an artform all to itself, which i can respect...it's just plain boaring to me...notice i didn't even mention football!
i like 'sports' that you can smoke and drink beer while playing! like Texas Hold'em, put-putt, bowling, pool, darts, and disc golf, yeah now there's some sports i can dig into!
Jun 20, 2007 09:35 pm I could smoke and drink beer while driving a stock car. Hell, I think they used to do it that way in the early years.
Nascar just rocks, nuff said. I simply dig racing on as a whole. some not as interesting as others, but there is something about the noise and smell of it.
As a side note, I'm kicking some major butt in our fantasy Nascar league. I think I am now in 2nd place and things look promising for the rest of the season.

that's it, if/when i end up in the twin cities area, we're hittin' up the closest go-kart place!
