Heads Up

Hey, Someone out there in TV land might have noticed that I've not been around for the last few weeks. That's because my computer (well, both of them now, I guess) is totally FUBAR'ed. Since I'm actually alone here at work without any of those pesky manager types looming over my shoulder, I can let the world know of my pain. Pass it along to all of your friends!

FOR: Oh, he's gonna tell us. Thanks for that. AGAINST: A beer-drinking contest? At Main Event? AGAINST: I seriously doubt JBL drinks Hennessy. FOR: About time you got around to Benoit. AGAINST: That "pine box" catchphrase. It's too damn long and doesn't make any sense. FOR: Regal trying to cut down Burchill. FOR: I do like the entrance. FOR:

FOR: The Spanish Announce Team~~~ It's truly a big night. FOR: Sharmell ignoring Cole. AGAINST: The inevitable "Why is Cole so concerned with Booker's groin" bit. FOR: Tazz: "Nobody likes you!" Cole: Why?" AGAINST: What's that foaming out of his mouth? I'm eating, for fuck's sake. FOR: Tale of the Tape~~~~~~~~~~ AGAINST: Angle's only 5-11?
