I got a 2 year degree in AutoCAD. I have since learned a couple other cad programs on my own. I have been in the real world for 7 years and make upwards of 60k+ a year in salary and bonuses plus benifits. Right now I detail rebar in concrete structures. Lame yes, but it more than pays the bills. The 2 year dgree was never needed if I had learned the software on my own. But it made me more polished and its easier to get your foot in the door if you do.

Depends, are you sticking to just US pro wrestlers? Luchador and Wrestling Observer Hall Of Fame Member Black Shawdow passed this week as well. http://www.luchawiki.com/index.php?title=Black_Shadow

http://www.pwinsider.com/ViewArticle.asp?id=22952&p=1 In the midst of major shakeups within the network's executive end, MTV has pulled the fourth episode of MTV Wrestling Society X from next week's scheduled airing at 10:30 PM. While the actual yanking of the episode was due to an issue with the MTV's standards and practices department, sources claim that the network is also trying to change their strategy moving forward, both with WSX and other first-run programming. A program titled "Scarred" will run next Tuesday in WSX's usual timeslot. The pulled WSX episode was slated to feature the debut of IWA Puerto Rico star Ricky Banderas, during which he would throw a fireball into WSX champion Vampiro's face. MTV initially approved the storyline and stunt when it was filmed during WSX's taping in Los Angeles. Once the network received and reviewed the episode, the decision was made to not allow it to air due to concerns over children possibly recreating the stunt. Since the fireball angle was one of the company's main storylines for the length of their episodes, the situation went back and forth within the network and has yet to be resolved, thus the pulling of the episode. In a January interview with PWInsider.com, Wrestling Society X producer Kevin Klinerock discussed the MTV issues with producing a product that would feature violent stunts, commenting, "The biggest issue that standard and practices, and everyone at MTV has - and it's understandable. The concern is, 'How easy is it for some kid, some viewer, to replicate what they are seeing?' They don't want us swinging light tubes. Understood. An exploding casket, however, is not seen in the same light on the same scale of sheer violence of swinging a light tube; a kid's not going to be able to get an exploding casket in their backyard. That's their concern. It doesn't come from a sake of wanting or not wanting something to be seen on television, they have real series concerns. They've lived through a number of lawsuits from kids watching and imitating "Jacka**" and similar things, and it's just their set of standards that the entire network lives by. It doesn't matter if it's a wrestling show or "The Real World." It's just a standard of rules that everyone has to live by. "The standard [MTV uses] is how easy is it for someone to replicate it. That's what we have to look at when it comes to stunts and violence. It's not a whitewash WCW using cotton candy as weapons by any stretch of the imagination. It's definitely got your mix of extreme and your mix of entertaining in-ring high flying action. We give a little bit of each in each episode, the extreme violence and the excellent high flying technical in-ring wrestling. I think we accomplish that. Most episodes were laid out that way." Additionally, MTV as a network is in a major state of flux at the moment with ratings for their original programming down across the board. In response, parent company Viacom has let go of 250 employees in the last several days including several high ranking executives, with some given two week notices and other departments being completely shut down. Among those fired according to today;s edition of entertainment trade publication The Hollywood Reporter was Paul DeBenedittis, who held the position of Executive Vice President of "multiplatform programming, content strategy and scheduling at MTV", was among those fired. DeBendittis was responsible for MTV's programming decisions, including placing WSX up against WWE's ECW on Sci Fi. Sources claim the network is re-evaluating the programming currently airing on the network. Its possible that moving forward, WSX may be moved to another timeslot to get it away from the competition of ECW. When asked whether the series was in danger of being canceled after garnering just a 0.5 rating this week, WSX sources noted MTV had already paid for the production of the 10 filmed episodes and that it wouldn't make sense for the network to not air what they had already invested in. As of now, those sources indicate that Wrestling Society X is scheduled to return on Tuesday 2/27 at 10:30 PM, although that could conceivably change as things evolve from the standards and practices end. PWInsider.com will have more on the state of Wrestling Society X as the story continues to develop

No, the next one got pulled, supposed to return the week after.

Don't like Miffy huh? She's a pom/poodle mix and the ring leader of the other two. yes an ankle bitter, but very loyal. The -ex picked wanted her, so it's not all my fault.

Oh yeah? I think circus clowns are the most evil, scary things on this earth.

This is Chloe, she was the first dog I got after college, in 2000. Here she is as a pup and in her favorite spot, under the end table. About 5 years ago she was chasing birds at my grandparents farm and got hit by a car and died before I could get her to the animal ER. The sob never even stopped.

My three pups:

I think your thinking of "Jesus Built My Hotrod" by Ministry w/ Gibby Haynes on lead vocals. Now thats another great album, "Psalm 69". You had "Hotrod", "Just One Fix", "NWO", etc, etc....

Funny, I just picked up the latest EP "Ruck Zuck" this past weekend. I must have 30 various albums, extended singles, and EP's. I still have the Sucks T-shirt in a box somewhere. I saw them live several times at the Metro back when they were based in Chicago back in the Wax Trax/TVT days.

Abdullah the Butcher and The Great Kabuki

Some of the spots were stupid (live wires and explosions) but overall it kept my interest. I could never watch 1 or 2 hors of this. It'ss nice to see some of these guys getting regular paychecks.

If they pull in the ratings they will continue.

"In what has to be a record turnaround, WWE signed Marty "Boogeyman" Wright to a new deal. The decision came within the last 24 hours because yesterday he was heavily campaigning for independent bookings at $700 a shot. Wright will be training in Texas out of Booker T's school, according to the WWE website. Wright was released a few weeks ago after the company decided he wasn't putting the proper effort into rehabilitating a torn biceps he suffered back before Wrestlemania 22." http://www.pwinsider.com/ViewArticle.asp?id=20732&p=1

I don't think so.

Isn't he one of the owners/founders of CHIKARA?

DJ Jeff?!?!?! LOL. What a tool. Remember when he started his own forum?

In TNA, Angle will wrestle 3 times a month, tops. Figure the PPV and a couple of TV tapings. He doesn't need to make money from the indies, and this also saves him from traveling overseas. Since he is obsessed with working, this was his best choice.

But of course. It was his step dad, Mike DiBiase that died young, in a wrestling ring of all places. He works alot of christian type events

1996

pro wrestling just got a whole lot more fun.

That's nothing but damage control. 85%? He probally needs help getting dressed in the morning.

Del Wilkes hasn't wrestled in 3 or 4 years, that's Tom Brandi under the mask.

Lemmy is like a cockroach, he'll survive a nuclear holocaust.
