John Candy: I Like Me (a documentary)
If you want some depth and variety, check out SCTV’s library of archival episodes. His character Johnny LaRue was truly and grandly needy and yearning for fame. Dr. Tongue, Yosh Schmenge, Dr Wainwright, the Unctuous William B, the Weedhopping Pippi Longsocks, Orson Welles, Billy Sol Hurok, a wonderful cast of distinct characters! I’m forgetting a hundred.

The Biggest Scam Profession
I never intended to practice law for an occupation but in 1981 I was faced with a decision: go to law school or dig ditches for a living. I said to my dear bride, Mrs. Llama, “But there’s a lawyer on every street corner and we’ve never known a good one.” She said, “Law school is three years. Med school is six years, and a lot longer before you’re earning any significant money. Tell me, big guy, if you don’t ho to law school, where will we be three years from now?” I went. I discovered that if I pronounced my clients’ names correctly, showed up on time for appointments, and was honest, I would never hurt for clients I don’t think of myself as a lawyer but I do practice law as an occupation. I’ve never scammed anyone but I have bern scammed by vendors of equipment, supplies, and phone/internet/email services.

- John Candy: I Like Me (a documentary)
Ms Llama and I were introduced to John by SCTV, which followed an odd NBC Friday night show of some kind. We watched SCTV once and were hooked. My personal favorites were the “Fireside Chats with Mayor Tommy Shanks.” Dotard should give those a shot, so to speak.- Trump Decides Cristobol Columbus Needs A Reach Around (The World).
Paul Theroux, Paddling the Happy Isles of Oceania- Random thoughts that don't warrant a thread
A revocable trust works better than survivorship accounts and avoids the baggage, expense and delay of probating a will and administering a decedent’s estate, all without risking assets being diverted to “well meaning” caregivers and unduly influential relatives. It helps if the trust creator is not a procrastinator. Here are some basic questions to get them started: 1. Who gets what? 2. When do they get it? 3. Who’s in charge?- Things not going well for James Franklin [FIRED]
They needed more “win outs” and fewer “white outs.” Working here on the lower Alabama Gulf Coast for the past forty years I have met and worked for and with a number of Penn State fans. They were all good people and legit football fans. But that was all before the Sandusky shower show scandal and Joe Knew revelations. I hope for their sake they turn the page in a good way.- Things not going well for James Franklin [FIRED]
Not too shabby for a former Vandy coach (the $$, anyway).- SEC Refs Suck
Fair enough. I have viewed a jillion college football games and the suckage on this one was real. I will say the refs properly called taunting on Mizzou on Bama’s first possession.- SEC Refs Suck
Our two players were concussed so I guess I’m imagining things. SEC refs are great! Yeah and I hope Texas draws this Bama/Mizxou crew at UGA. They search for ways to fuck you.- SEC Refs Suck
Bama -Mizzou crew gets an F from me. Motherfuckers blew call after call and have taken FURTHER REVIEW to new lows. We win by 20 without these officials. Our RB Miller likely rebroke his collarbone on a cheap shot by Mizzou defender. Man the balls on DeBoer on 4th down.- Nuremberg
Anything that reminds the mobile phone app obsessed masses about what happens when fascists take over is worthy of support. Trials are not the solution. Derailing the fascism train is.- Pluribus - Vince Gilligan and Rhea Seehorn

That, my friends, is 21st Century gonzo literature. Thank you, Imma, for expending the time, energy and capital to make it possible for me to read of your adventures in Pettyland.- Who should be our next OC hire?
Do not even think about Ryan Grubb but Hugh Freeze may be available soon.- ESPN GAME DAY
Should be an interesting trajectory- Jeffrey Epstein needs his own thread
Yeah, and Corch Sandusky was just “horsing around” with Penn State football players in the showers at Happy Valley.- 2025 Game Week 5: Texas at Florida
Thanks. That’s three “dreaded” blackout Bama wins in a row. The horns will win there, too, later on in the season. UGA fans are insufferable, just like the office dweeb woofing at his boss lady in the commercial.- 2025 Game Week 5: Texas at Florida
Texas, just win, avoid key injuries and move on. Fuck style points.- Tell me about ou
You guys better get into and out of the Swamp without key injured players.”before interring OU. Weird shit happens in that place. I have no doubt Bendables will play Mateer but he (Mateer) didn’t impress me that much vs a pretty solid Alldumb defense. Florida’s locker room may be on life support by Saturday, in any case. Hook ‘em anyway.- Alabama Football - Now Featuring Kalen DeBoer
To open the 2002 game in Fayetteville, Arkansas kicked the football out of the back of the end zone. On the first play from scrimmage, “Shaudie” took a draw play 80 yards to the house, untouched. Pound for pound, that guy was one the best college football players I ever saw. Tough, fast, sure handed. His tearful argument to keep Mike Price was eloquent but the die had been cast. I’ll remember Shaud when our defense tries to handle Mike Shula’s offense at South Carolina in a few weeks.- Alabama Football - Now Featuring Kalen DeBoer
His stripper companions literally ordered two of everything on the room service breakfast menu, using his UA credit card.- Alabama Football - Now Featuring Kalen DeBoer
My daughter was a freshman at UA during the brief Price “era.” He had a habit of turning up semi-hammered at the coded gate of his on campus condominium at the same time as coveys of lithe, nubile coeds coming in from bar crawling, asking if they could punch the code to open the gate to the elevator because he had forgotten what day it was. My daughter was not one of the coeds and no pics, you sick fucks. The players LOVED Mike Price and lobbied the AD to keep him even after the Pensacola strippers incident. Shades lof Hugh Freeze!- UGA- Bama 7:30 on ABC
As W would tell us, there good strategery in taking 3 points when you can get it and for punting the ball when you don’t want to turn it to your opponent on downs. Just ask DKR, Bobby Dodd, Bud Wilkinson, Ara Pargehian, Robert Neyland and Paul Bryant. I saw Bryant punt or quick-kick on third and long plenty of times. It helps if your defense can tackle in the open field! His 1961 NC team gave up 25 points . . . all year! - John Candy: I Like Me (a documentary)
