Chazz

Did you ever have anyone chase or follow you after you did that?

If you're in any position to reprimand this person, don't be a dumbshit and ask advice here. Fire them or write them up or whatever. I wish. I'm just a lowly Midnight Youth Care Worker (I.E. babysitter), so I really don't have any power. If I did, half of the people working there would be unemployed. This job Isn't career oriented, so your advice on not giving a fuck sounds pretty good to me. Actually, I've been doing that for several months, but I digress.

I take It you'd fire someone's ass if they were constantly abusing their sick time as well?

I actually thought the show was pretty solid aside from that horrid "comedy" sketch.

The one thing I did do that has seemed to work somewhat was putting out the word that If anyone pulled this calling off shit at the last minute on me, then I would do the same thing to them while they were waiting for me. The same one's who abuse their sick time still do, but not when they know It's me that they'd be leaving stranded.

On one of the last editions of Heat (On American T.V.), Rene Dupree came out and did commentary on a Tomko squash. He stated that he believed he has found the Ideal tag team partner In Tyson Tomko. I don't think they ever followed up on this, not that I'm complaining.

Shelton Benjamin over Gene Snitsky clean via pinfall earlier this year on Raw. I add this not only because of Snitsky's push at the time, but also because of Vince McMahon's fetish of Big Wrestlers In general.

I thought It was edgy and clever at the same time. The best part was how It was revealed to the audience, with Bearer and Lawler talking candidly after they thought The camera was off. When they came back from commercial, Lawler then "apologized" for his comments.

Just curious, as It seems that I actually sleep better when I am depressed, while some people get little to no sleep when they are battling depression. How does this affect you all If/when you get depressed?

I watched just about all of The MNF Game between San Diego and my Hometown Pittsburgh Steelers. The only time I changed channels all night to USA was at Halftime, and even then I quickly switched back. I laughed to myself as I thought back to when the choice was actually a difficult one: Watch The Steelers or MNF. Now It doesn't even matter if The Steelers are playing or not on MNF.

With The Pro Wrestling Industry as a whole In a swoon the last couple of years, I was just curious If anybody knew If The "Dirtsheets" (I.E. The Observer, The Pro Wrestling Torch, Figure 4 Weekly, etc.) were suffering as a result? I know I used to subscribe to The Torch and The Observer from about 1997-2002, but have not resubscribed since then. A combo of general disinterest In The Product as well as being able to get all the info. free of the net were my 2 deciding factors. Anybody know or have any guesses?

**The Following Is Long** I have a Friend who still lives at Home with his Parents and one Sister. His Sister moved back In with Him and his Parents after a failed attempt to live on her own. Apparently his Sister (Who Is now 23 but acts like She's 12) Is out of control. Some of Her "Highlights" since She moved back In Include taking 45 Minute Showers that use up all The Hot Water, as well as flipping out and kicking and punching walls everytime she gets Into a fight with her Parents. I told my Friend that The best thing his Parents could do for Her as well as themselves Is to kick her ass out, as She Is well over 18 and Is not Legally her Parents responsibility anymore. My friend said that his Parents already looked Into that, and claims were told that The Police would not answer any call to remove Her from The Home unless she was committing a Crime. (The Police would most likely have to be called, as this girl definatley wouldn't leave willingly). I never heard of this before and decided to ask some people about this. Several people told me this was true, while other people told me that She could be removed by The Police If neccessary for Tresspassing If her Parents told her to leave. Does anybody know for sure about this or have any Ideas on what His Family should do? I have an Idea, but I want to see what you all have to say about this fucked up situation first.

You're pretty much dead on there, Ripper, as I can remember my friend telling me horror stories In which he basically used to flip out and destory property and get away with It. Case In Point: I remember him telling me a story of when he was 18 and he went to a park to see his mother about something or other and ended up getting Into a fight with her. As she was leaving he wasn't watching what he was doing and ended up crashing Into his mother's parked car. When they brought both cars back to The House, (apparently they were still drivable), and explained what happened to both cars, his Dad flipped on him telling him he would have to walk to go anywhere from now on. At that point my friend put his foot through his basement window and pointed his finger directly In his Father's face screaming back at him. Here comes The "best" part: Apparently he had to go to work that night, (I think he said his Mom drove him In one of The cars that wasn't damaged too bad), but when he got home he found out that his Dad didn't call The Police or throw all of his stuff out Into The Street or change The Locks on The Doors like most parents would have. No, he went out and bought him "3 Bruce Lee Movies." Yeah, It's no surprise The Daughter ened up the way she has.

I believe they could If she Is over 18 and not their "child" anymore. But like you said, If The Cops reponding to that call had half a brain In their heads, they'd basically tell her she couldn't have It both ways. As you might have already guessed, said parents really don't have a backbone when dealing with this girl. Actually, they never really did, which Is a huge part of The reason she Is as old as she Is and acts the way she does.

November 2000: Vince McMahon has The Bright Idea To replace Head Writer Chris Kreski(sp?) with daughter Steph. The Product has been horrible ever since, IMO.

That's probably what she needs, but knowing this girl she would call The Cops and have her parents arrested.

And I think you need to take out a restraining order against this Chad Ruffner fellow. That dude dominated your email section. I think you may have a stalker. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Unlike what you were led to believe, I E-Mailed those Raw Rants to Barron (As well as about 12 other people) over The Course of several months from mid May to just last week. If that makes me a Stalker, well.... I guess The Stalker has a Stalker then!

I don't think so, but by The same token they never seem to follow up on any threats Issued towards her. My suggestion to him was that as soon as she started flipping out and punching and kicking The Walls and stuff, that The Parents call The State Police and have her removed from The House on Destruction of Property Charges. If I were her Parents, I'd probably end up dropping The Charges eventually, (All depending on her attituide), but not after some time In Jail. If/when I would drop The Charges, It would be made very clear to her that If she comes back to The House from that point forward She will be arrested for Tresspassing and The Charges would not be dropped. Knowing my friends Parents, though, They would probably end up calling The Police on her, but when The Police would ask them If they are going to press charges, they'd chicken out and say no. You know, just like every Domestic Disturbance call on "Cops."

Since that Gangbanger ended back up In Sean's Office, I wonder If he'll be added to The List of The Many Recurring Characters?

Calling Grisham "The Queer."

Can anybody name any positives of The Stephanie McMahon Era on The Creative Team since late 2000?

Isn't Escobar supposed to be In Prison?

Did anyone pick up a copy of The New Kane "Biography", "Journey Into Darkness"? I actually heard some say It was pretty good for what It Is, but I hesitate to part with my money knowing It was probably written by a current member of The Creative Team. Anyone else read It or at least glance over It? Thanks!

If I end up deciding to watch It, where can I catch this new G.I. Joe? Also, do they still make The Comic Version of G.I. Joe? I used to love reading The Comic Version as well, particularly because It wasn't Sanitized and Main Characters always seemed to be biting The dust, unlike The Cartoon where everybody never really died.

I agree with you. Glad to see I wasn't the only one who got a rush out of seeing half the flight stomp the living shit out of that one hijacker. That fact that It was narrated by Jack Bauer made It all the more for me!
