And I wouldn't expect too much in the way of punishment for Rollins. Real Radio's angry, right-wing, would-be biker, shock mid-day guy had to shoot his wife and dog to get fired from the place a few years back. Luckily, his name is mud in the industry now.

Irony note: The Real Radio shows grab much of their content from Gawker Media sites (especially this guy). If the PTB at Clear Channel were to block your sites in retaliation for this article, it'd be 13 hours of dead air over there.

Its really kind of sad. The weather out here was perfect today.

Can't imagine why anyone wouldn't take Natural News seriously as a source of information.

We call that bouillon, not medicine.

Duh.

Blood feuds sound exhausting.

Huh. Not only do you troll like a 12-year-old, you can't even tell what part of Gawker you're on right now.

First - INTELEC, a BBS Echomail network. I didn't even have a modem to hook up to a BBS at the time; I had a packet reader on my home computer and would download packets of posts from the forums I subscribed to at a friend's house once a week.

And arguing pedantically like my teenage daughter isn't the same as contributing to the discussion, you miserable little chowderhead.
