OFF: Lemmy on US network TV

Hey Folks...

I think tonight the Lemster is to make some sort of appearance on the Drew
Carey Show (which otherwise I never watch).

And coincidentally, I was watching a rerun of last Tuesday's Conan O'Brian
show, and they used 'Ace of Spades' in a skit.  Actually, I've seen them use
Motorhead before in a skit - can't remember if it was AoS that time also?
Anyway, whenever they need angry rock music backing for a skit that is
portraying mock violence, they seem to head Lemmy's way.  The chief editor
from The Onion was also on that show last night...I thought their first
issue following the Towers was the only thing in the media that made any
damn sense the last month.  I felt better after reading through that!  Of
course, if they were on TV like Bill Maher, they would have been banned
forever.  I still don't understand what was even remotely 'offensive' about
what Maher said....we need a war on political correctness as much as
terrorism it seems.

Well, dunno how I got so off-topic...I didn't get enough sleep last night.

Gotta go pick up the pizzas (anybody remember that song?  Poco?)...

Grakkl (FAA)
