Yeah, just call this "Fox Sunday Night". I enjoyed everything tonight (except I refused to watch Free Ride for taking up AD's space). I think maybe I'm just a mark for references as the only things I remember really laughing at on Family Guy were Stewie singing Mr. Belevedere, The Noid ("Perhaps it was the Noid who should have avoided me"... loved it), and the TMNT theme being played for 4 seconds. On The Simpsons, Homer "calling" the "repair man" (Mac Tonight) was fairly amusing.

So despite some concerns raised about the beginning of the game being boring and stuff like that, I bought this while out yesterday and so far I've been loving it... maybe I'm just a mark for references, I don't know. I popped big for Scrooge McDuck, too bad he didn't talk though.

Thanks GQ! I'll be sure to entertain you with a real blog entry tomorrow... maybe. Possibly.

So, I decided the other day I wanted to start blogging again... and then I couldn't. I had that stupid Canadian skin on, which was only there to say "Hey everyone I'm Canadian", and clicking the entry menu didn't do anything. Well, today I looked at the settings (again) to see if there was something I was missing. I saw an option under "Look" to always show entry options. When I selected it, the blog turned over to the default skin (which works out well) and suddenly clicking "Entries" actually did something! I wish I knew how to permenantly change the blog skin so I didn't have to worry about it flipping back to the Canadian one, but in due time. Now I am free to share with everyone just how funny I find "The War on Easter" graphic that they use on The Colbert Report... but later.

Now that I watched the episode, I was confused if their target was free speech, the stupid outrage over the Mohammed cartoon, Family Guy, or the whole Tome Cruise episode debacle. They just nicely combined it all. I love Family Guy, but damn if that parody was not spot on.

While I don't know you in real life, I do know things (via IRC) about you that others probably don't (one example being your name) but I get the point you're expressing. Have at it, S_D. Let the good times roll.

I just posted a problem I'm having with the blogs.. perhaps that didn't quite require it's own thread but I didn't know if I should have classified it was a "report problems here" issue.

So after not doing anything for 6 months, I decided I wanted to update my blog again... but I can't. Part of that was I forgot how, but there also seems to be these "assistant" tools that weren't there before, and almost none of them work. I tried my default script (Firefox) and I tried IE and both had the same problem. I have the Canadian skin on and basically, all the manus have a "v" next to them except "Blog Settings". The ones with the "v" don't do anything when clicked. The settings menu works, although I had to look at it a few times to see there were other options I could pick (on Firefox, the sub-directories are all squished into the original pop-up). I wondered if it was a problem with the skin, but I can't find an option to change it... then, as I wondered this, the skin just automatically turned into the default skin (which was kind of weird) but nothing worked there either. Now it's back to the Canadian skin (which I don't even want anymore) and I still can't do anything. Note: If this was something that should have gone into "Report here first" or "Report problems here" threads, sorry, I was just trying to mention this quickly before leaving for work and didn't really look around.

So, what's the story here? Seth and Groening make peace (according to Seth on commentary, anyway) so Matt and Trey need to start a war? The shows aren't even competing, just let people do their thing and stick to yours.

Did you not read the thread? If you want to say he's an annoying prick but he looks good that's fine, but it's just plain silly to pretend he isn't an annoying prick. How do you know he is. What is fact is that he didn't shit in one of the random pair of tits' bag, like everyone here is going on about it. The crazy, egotistical bitch said he only dumped lotion or something on it. Not that I'm excusing it, but that doesn't mean he's an annoying prick that we should all think is horrible. I'd also like to point out that a lot of the bad stuff people are attributing to Orton in this thread end up being something Edge did, and it seems the only person on the net that hates Edge is Matt Hardy. Just saying.

So based on the SD! spoilers, I take it this suspension means he gets to skip house shows but be on TV?

So, to clarify so I don't make a mistake in the future (since I posted this in the "Comments" thread first): WWE releases a jobber / a jobber quits = its own thread. WWE signs mid-carder / former IC champions = "Comments" thread. Got it.

IT shouldn't be since it was advertised on WWE.com since before the tapings, and there is a segment on the show where Teddy Long announces it. Not sure why they would have Benoit wrestle Simon Dean, though. But hey, two Benoit matches, good stuff.

I'd heard of him, but not much about him. Apparently changing his name has eliminated a catchphrase, but I feel not having someone on Raw named Osama is a good thing.

Tomko is done. He quit after being told Goldust and Snitsky were a new tag team. (says PWInsider).

Mark Henry's banner has been moved out of the McMahon family section, replaced with Carlito (who was kinda hanging there last night). Why does WWE even bother showing 5 people clapping when the audio is 90% boos?

I believe said motion indicated it's a money match.

"Austin pretty well confirmed by his promo [Hall of Fame] that he and Hogan will headline next year's Wrestlemania" - Meltzer's Sunday update. I haven't seen the TV portion yet, what did he say?

Kane/Big Show vs Spirit Squad for the tag titles has been announced.

From WWE.com: CM Punk in action. The King of Kings, Shao Kahn / Conan / Thor.

Someone just reminded me the HH2000 match is on the Rise and Fall of ECW DVD... I totally forgot. Edit: And I forgot because the person was wrong - they thought I was talking about 1999.

Damnit, I was hoping it was the Hardcore Heaven match, which I haven't seen, not a match I own on VHS and DVD. Oh well.

I still want to know why Mark Henry was in the McMahon section (with HHH) of the banners last night. Is he the kayfabe father of Steph's baby?
