    Dennis would shine performing 'Pants on the Ground'

    I only watch until all the untalented/wackos have been screened.

  6. labmonkey (anonymous) says…

    I think Roe doth protest too much... I bet he goes way over his texting limit during Idol season every year voting for his favorite person.

  7. CWGOKU (anonymous) says…

    Never and no

    Enough with the repeat questions.
    Pass the biscuits and gravy, please

    Oh, hell no.

    Happy 151 for Kansas. Break out the Bacardi!

    NO. I refuse to watch so called "reality" shows. If a local talent is on one, I'm sure the appearance will show up on a newscast.

    I don't even gots no texting plan! I spends 'bout $6 a month on the wife and my texting and the phone company wants to charge us $10 for each phone to "save us money"! Ole Roe ain't always the brightest bulb on the tree but my cypherin' skills is still sharp. Think I'll pass on the $20 to save on $6 worth of texting . . .

      We don't even have texting, have it blocked. Had someone ask me last month why I hadn't responded to the texts she had been sending me for the last three months. Didn't occur to her that someone would not have texting.
