Really Important Current Events

Okay… let’s take a look at the primary talley so far:

Huckabee came out first with Chuck Norris.  Then McCain collected Sylvester Stallone (recently facing charges of steriod use for his recent Rambo 734… he could be a formidable ally).  Yesterday Hulk Hogan decided to endorse Obama (Uh… Hulk… please don’t help us).  And today McCain is expected to tick off another one in the stud column when he gets the nod from Arnold Schwartzenegger.  I know what you’re all thinking.  You’re waiting for Steven Seagall to weigh in before you make your decision.  Now, for anyone who remotely understands the delegate system (which is about 27 people on the planet… and most of them are probably from another country), these endorsements don’t actually contribute to the candidate’s nomination (except Arnold… as Governator, he just might be a delegate too… a SUPER delegatOR!).  So the only purpose they really serve is to contribute to the neverending push for pop culture to triumph in elections (as opposed to, I dunno, issues, character, vision… that totally unmarketable crap).  I mean, I have yet to see any celebrity death matches scheduled between the aforementioned muscle men.  And until I do… I continue to roll my eyes in their general direction.

And, still on the Men of Politics calendar issue… where are the new school ass-kickers in all of this?  Who is Vin Diesel supporting?  What about Jason Statham?  The Rock?  Welsey Snipes?  Once we have the muscles of today and the muscles of yesteryear… then I think we would have the universal representation to really make some presidential decisions here, bitches! 

Apparently the GOP decided in last night’s debate to show the world that the Dems aren’t the only ones who can use the eminent "talk to the hand" debate technique.  Sadly, no one will watch the Democratic debate tonight to see if they live up to the challenge… because we’ll all be watching LOST.

Apparently, last night, they actually asked the question "Why would Ronald Reagan endorse you?"  I sure hope they all made sure to rub Ron’s belly at the shrine before they went on!  Whew! 

In celebrity current events:

 

And, from this picture, it seems that, upon announcing the news of her pregnancy, she immediately gave birth to a 2-year-old.

And, of course, the most important current event… we have improv shows this Friday and Saturday at 10:30 following performances of The Seagull.  Be there or be Brittney! 

You heard me!
