No. I've been working 9PM-8AM, and then packing for a move Thursday or Friday to a different address.
This is hilarious!

OMG, this scares the daylights out of me. If our country has come to this kind of political candidate, we are really in trouble. . .

Have you already forgotten a certain pro-wrestler that entered a badly split contest and got himself elected governor?
Don't laugh too loudly . . .

I am still shaking my head.
And Arnold is also running in California I think...my birth state! my home state for most of my life.
Hollywood and politics....it's always meant trouble from my POV. But Springer????
That's downright scary.
Next thing you know, Oprah will be running for President.
Hmmm....a woman in charge. OK, don't get me started on that agenda.

Well, he used to be mayor of a fairly large city. Soooooo... Besides, he has all that experience in conflict resolution!

ROTF...conflict resolution.  You mean, Larry, stepping back and letting everyone duke it out?

I think we need to pull the plug on the cesspool of politicians and would-be politicians who bring nothing to the plate except their egos.

Here's some information about the wanna-be Senator that most don't know... I'd like to see if it comes out in hte campaign...

1)Jerry Springer started his public life as a reporter for a local Cincinnati news cast.
2)He ran for, and was elected as mayor of Cincy, and served one term before going back to broadcasting.
3)He only did one term because he got caught writing a $200 personal check to a hooker (or am I being un-PC???)
4)He got the gig for his show as an ASSIGNMENT. The broadcasting conglomerate ORDERED him to do the show that eventually became what he is doing now... where he continually asks "guests" why they need to hire "professionals".

Just one of the many giggles that gets me through the day.

Thanks! Nope, I sure didn't know any of that
LOL, nor did I care, I won't be voting anyway as its in Ohio, but hopefully the registered voters there will have common sense and not vote for him, as he is a joke.
My opinion anyway.

This is a little off topic, but we get Springer here too and I was wondering if there is someone who can settle a dispute some friends and I are having...

Are those "guests" for real, or is the whole thing staged?

Would make for some great news footage though...someone nailing Hillary Clinton in the head with a chair as the other senators chant Jerry Jerry!

Bec-
I can't guarantee it, and I have no absolute proof to offer, however, I have been told by friends in the industry that the producers of the Sringer Show pay $1,000 per performance to the "guests".
After giving it much intense thought, I am figuring that I could very easily be a homosexual, brother-loving, trailer park- living, transgendered, biker nun on crack for that kinda cash...
