When I first turned up in Cincinnati people would mention that Springer had been mayor there as if that was some kind of cultural highlight in the city's past! Hmmmmm - maybe it was.

Besides, I know it's not a mansion. It's TheMansion™. Do you have any kind of codeshare agreement with TheHotel™ in Las Vegas?

He was elected mayor AFTER he was voted off city council when he was caught paying prostitutes by CHECK!!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Springer

"Springer was elected to the Cincinnati city council in 1971.[2] He was forced to resign in 1974 after admitting to hiring a prostitute.[2] The episode was uncovered when a police raid on a Fort Wright, Kentucky "massage parlor" unearthed a check Jerry Springer had written for its "services". Jerry Springer came clean at a press conference. His honesty helped him win back his seat in 1975"

I know I have done such things in the past, though I try not to overkill it, but for real this time there was no innuendo. I truly meant you can stab me. You seem like a decent enough person and if you ever felt you had to, I would not resist much because I know your decision would be based on sound reasoning.

I'm really not that worried about that scenario ever having to play out, though. It might be hard to get a rapier all the way from CA in your carry-on.

You're right, she is talented. Is she a children's book author?

Traveller, anything with David "Don't Hassle the Hoff" can't be good.

I read an article that the british judge was injured in a segway accident on the Santa Monica Pier. Was he on the show tonight?

He's a real terror and would be truly dangerous if it weren't for Mrs. Cholula.

Really? I had kind of thought Ms. Cholula is probably encouraging him.

No postings today? Apparently the Spectre of Cholula has taken over.
