Did anyone watch that awful show? I watched one episode and couldn't get all the way through it. Too many shit gags about high colonics and his incessant whining just turned me off.
@Alexandra90210: I watched a few minutes of it but had to change it when he went on too long polling his crew on the state of their chest mucous. Baffling...
Well, if the show gets some numbers, I guess we could be looking at the next Sal and Dean whenever there's a meeting about On The Road.
On a more serious note - Young Bardians, here's an example for you. When I was there the school averaged a half-dozen pretty serious suicide attempts per academic year (not counting buffoonery like the time Ebner got on the roof of Kline Commons and threatened to jump off) and one or two "successes." So the point is, kids, don't jump off a cliff or grab some pills - just hang in there and in about 30 years Showtime will come through with some paychecks.
Then you come back to campus and Botstein (who will certainly still be there in 2039) mutters stuff about honorary degrees. OK, forget that part.
@mladen: Correction: I never threatened to jump off Kline Commons; I mock-crucified myself from the gutter. See you at our old school in May, where - this many years later - I'll be addressing the 2009 graduating class at Botstein's President's Dinner.

Now I know how all the Jezzies felt when Moe defended date-rape. I am devastated. Wow, I have a lot of blond wigs and chihuahuas to throw out.
