So glad he made an example of the Chin one . A Calvin Klein cologne attracts wild cats , so be careful at a zoo. Eating breakfast in the morning contributes to better sleep .

That Gordon Tate "Robbing Maple Bars Story" is classic. More to come in this version of "The Fun Thread"........hopefully.

It really wasn't a good weekend for Jay Leno........ at all : The greatest 7 typos of all time . The best video game bars in the country . Yes, you read correctly. And these 7 most glaring inconsistencies in TV sitcom history . Your edition of the Fun Thread.

Oh De La Soul (even though it is much warmer in this video than it is in the Northeast), "It's Saturday, Saturday, Saturday." Al Franken, introducing another meaningful bill at the perfect time . Since 1974, federal law has banned foreign companies from giving or spending in American elections. Nothing in our current laws, however, explicitly prohibits foreign companies from creating American subsidiaries or getting control of American companies and using them to flood the airwaves in support of their preferred candidates. Citizens United gives companies unlimited power to do that - and does not distinguish between American companies and companies that are owned or controlled by foreign interests. "I was pleased to hear the President recognize the need for this bill in his address last night," said Sen. Franken. "I think we can all agree that foreign interests have no place in American elections." The "American Elections Act of 2010"...

The royal screw up of epic proportions has lead to them admitting it NBC Chairman Jeff Gaspin kicked off his network’s portion of the TCA press tour by confirming the worst kept secret in the TV biz: “I can confirm, starting Feb. 12, The Jay Leno Show will no longer air at 10 p.m.” Gaspin said that, “While [Leno] was performing at acceptable levels for the network, it did not meet our affiliates’ needs, and we realized we had to make a change. My goal right now is to keep Jay, Conan [O'Brien], and Jimmy [Fallon] as part of our late-night lineup. I have spoken to all of them and proposed that The Jay Leno Show move to 11:35, The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien to 12:05, and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon would then start at 1:05. “As much as I’d like to tell you we have a done deal, that’s not true,” he added. “The talks are ongoing. [But] I hope and expect, before the Olymics begin, we will have everything set. I can’t imagine we won’t.” Though there’s been no official word yet fro...

What a disaster , as it looks like there will be at least no more Leno show at 10. But it is more than just the subpar ratings that are the reason for this whole switch looking like it will blow up in face of the Chief of NBC Universal That's because the affiliates are upset about Leno as the lead-in to their local newscasts, most of whose ratings have suffering because of Jay's late night numbers in 10 PM primetime. Those news shows have been cash cows for the O&Os and affiliates whose general managers are now spitting mad these profit centers are threatened. In fact, NBC just now took the unusual step of issuing a statement about the FTV Live report saying Leno's show will be cancelled without at first issuing a straight denial, which came later from the network. Here's the first NBC statement: “Jay Leno is one of the most compelling entertainers in the world today. As we have said all along, Jay’s show has performed exactly as we anticipated on the network. It ...

I laughed hold-hardily at this.......I should be ashamed of myself: Don't worry, he made a fool out of himself in that interview , but you did have every right to laugh at what he did there though, I have to admit. Seriously.
