9.1.01 - 9.19.01

September 19th, 2001
That Smackdown that went live last Thursday from Texas a few days after the attacks was an interesting show. Especially the comments they ran by some of the various WWF superstars. The one I really didn't get though was the Stephanie McMahon one paralleling the attacks on the USA to the attacks a few years ago on her family. I am assuming she's talking about the steroid investigations, and if so the WWF was wrong in airing her segment. It really illustrated the McMahon ego and agenda being applied in the absolutely worst and improper of situations. I like the way they're slowly building a RVD/Austin feud (and possible alliance split?...Tazz will most likely be part of that too).

Save your money and still avoid all of those damn pop-up ads...

I often refer people to 1WRESTLING.COM while at the same time bitching about all of their pop-up ads. They've been offering an alternative pay-membership which eliminates all of those ads and in addition gives you some extras that the free version of their website doesn't provide like the Joey Styles hotline. If you're like me and like to check their site a few times a week for information, you've also probably considered paying the small monthly fee to avoid the irritation of having 3-4 ad windows pop up every time you go to a new page on their website. Since I just expect the worst of most wrestling fans, and maybe I'm wrong but I assume most of you don't read Time Magazine on a regular basis. In this last week's issue, they mentioned 2 links to programs that you can download that will kill these ads and make your life a little more stress-free. The pop-up stopper from PANICWARE works only with IE, and the pop-up killer from XFX JUMPSTART works with IE, AOL and Netscape browsers. Both are free so unless you actually like having those things popping up all over the place, consider downloading one.

An ebay shipping update...

All outstanding orders are packed up and will ship out Thursday morning. Hopefully most customers in the states that are still waiting for their autographs should get them Saturday but definitely no later than Monday or Tuesday. By the way, I really hate ebay, and all the scumbags on there. Sour grapes being sour grapes, since I got bumped off again (yeah they found out it was me...I aint paying them either) I think I'm finally wiping my hands of their auctions... meaning I won't have to deal with the cheapfucks anymore.



The WTC disaster...

Watching the news as much as I have over the last week I've realized that the majority of Americans are either mentally retarded or brain damaged and just incapable of making the most simple of logical assumptions and connections necessary to understand the full picture of what's going on in the world.

  • The people who did this and all of those responsible in feeding, hiding, funding, and helping in any other conceivable way are not representatives of true Muslims and are not of the real Islamic faith. They are people who have twisted a religion that as much as Judiasim and Christianity promote peace and tolerance, and condemn the acts that these terrorists do as well as their reasons for doing them. Nowhere in the Koran does it say to kill others, even those of different races and beliefs, let alone reward them for killing people with 50 virgins and a spot in heaven.
  • Remember that in places like Afghanistan there is little in most people's lives worth living for. Life can be a pretty miserable thing for many of these people, and when you're told by convincing liars that God will reward you for giving your life for "the cause" many are willing to trade in their miserable existence on this planet in the hopes for something better. Its kind of like the way the Church was in Europe during the Middle Ages...life was so amazingly terrible for so many from disease, hunger, poverty, and opression that the thought of eternity in hell (a place believed to be a thousand times worse than the shitty life they were already living) scared these people so much that the churches manipulated and robbed everyone with their own campaign of terrorisim. There are also those simply jealous of our freedoms and way of life, angry at their own social and economic situations that feel if they can't enjoy it as well then nobody should.
  • The guys who crashed the planes have been here for years. They probably were not sent here years ago with these specific missions. Most likely, the cells send people to America or wherever to learn specific skills like engineering or piloting and then are later given their missions. It would be too great of a risk to these terrorist plans that these guys know the specifics years ahead of time because in case someone is found out, the plan could be compromised. There are probably dozens if not hundreds of people here at all stages of the preparation and learning processes for future acts of terror. But it does look as though our government agencies are now doing a pretty good job checking under the rugs for all of these insects.
  • It is a good thing that we are waiting to move against any and all terrorists. Firstly, the more evidence we can provide, the more governments we can get to join us with greater degrees of commitment. This is also allowing us to clean our own house of as many potential problems as possible... because when we strike out against others, anyone still in the USA is more likely to do us damage in retaliation. We also really need to have an extremely well thought-out plan and have an established set of rules and procedures before acting.

Do you remember that they used the dual debut of Rob Van Dam and Tommy Dreamer to kick off the new WCW/ECW angle? Since then, they've pushed RVD fairly effectively (taking into consideration that RVD had a huge following that WWF wasn't really first aware of) but I've personally only seen Tommy Dreamer in one televised match and it was a tag match. Now, I'm reading that the WWF doesn't see a use for Dreamer. I think that's a shame and a waste, as Dreamer definitely was a fan favorite in the old ECW days and could be a great character on WWF television.

Under the whatever happened to subject, check out Daffney's official WEBSITE. Among other things, she's been training with and working for Dusty's TCW.

Through the end of the month, as a special back to school offer we'll be offering the Andre the Giant bright yellow messenger bag with adjustable shoulder strap and clasp closure for $22.95. Click on one of the images below to view all of the ATG items as well as for all ordering information.
A few of you retards have been sending me payments for ebay items lately without providing one shred of information as to what the payment is for... Additionally, you aren't even providing your user ID or even an email or phone number so that I can easily contact you. So, like always in these situations, your autograph will continue to sit and collect dust until I get the "where's my autograph" email. Upon the arrival of your email be prepared for me reaming you out for being so stupid and not being able to follow the simple instructions I had emailed you in the first place.

I really hate ebay and since I don't have a need anymore to make quick cash, people are going to have to start paying me what an autograph is really worth. Screw those ebay cheapfucks, this ain't the flea market...go get the autographs yourself if you're going to be a cheapfuck. The only people who will be entitled to any sort of deal will be those on the mailing list, repeat customers, and those who buy in some form of bulk (more than 3).

One of the only things I'll miss about ebay are the emails from freaks that I can make fun of...Like this one:
