I read your "about" section and we definitely have the tv and movies thing in common :-). Although our tastes seem to be a little different, except that Alias and Lost are 2 of my all time favorite shows. I was wondering how you stumbled onto my blog, especially you also being from KC. I assume maybe through Tony's KC? Thanks for the link. I read your “about” section and we definitely have the tv and movies thing in common :-).

Seriously, that guy is pure gold and he's made a shat ton of money for those people over his entire career. He didn't deserve to be thrown under the bus by the same people for which he's been a reliable breadwinner for the past 30 years. He's going to laugh all the way to the bank when satellite radio picks him up. Stern, Opie and Anthony, and now Imus are proving that the market will choose who wins and loses in the radio market. I just hope they'll hire someone better than David Lee Roth or Mancow to fill his time slot in the rotation on terrestrial radio. The way I look at it, when Nelly uses the term "knappy ho's", he's looked up to by the black community as a good example of someone who's made it. When Don Imus uses the term in a bad whitey joke, he's a racist and should be fired and never heard from again--even though he's probably given more back to the community than Nelly ever will.
