They're a movie I'm sorry again tropic thunder he played -- why a guy playing an Australian actor playing a black sky and a movie. In black face. The day there's really -- what can afford to -- amount I mean it it really really funny. Okay 1877469432. To anything new that we need to know about gore on the world with TV you mean now the world post post. Oscars yet. Well a tape it was Wednesday in Boston at this time you were -- I -- plus fever has receded you know it's funny how we I had I I recorded shark I -- it came to cut -- although it -- here a couple episodes the first season this is its third season but people -- watch and Friday night lights that should be used terrific show Vietnam and and I'd be caught up on and on pests. Past seasons -- you I think the dvd so it's pretty cheap arm and no I'm not getting paid by them to say. I'm working on -- new show concepts for the monkey business -- well it's about time there was a there was a story about it in the paper yesterday and now I'm sure it deploys the Massachusetts but I think -- also applies to all other states -- that the cops using more and more pacers. They are well know that they're what does mayor Daley said there's going to be a surveillance camera on every street corner in Chicago on again I think that's probably a national trend to I think we do we mixed these two trends together.

As he stood in the mood in 27. Per. I feel rural masses. Not just a regular miss a funeral mass was being held inside saint Mary of the assumption Kaplan was heard -- a funeral when police received 911 calls about a naked man. I'm just trying to count how many levels this is wrong. -- police -- then they'll really give -- another when the man -- in the church naked at the funeral begins cursing and verbally abusing the police and I guess you know what happened was -- excited -- that you know they know that this is no he told officers she was having problems with his parents and one -- go to church about it I think he's been -- and -- for -- isn't -- what. Our peacekeepers calling -- deeply. And emotionally disturbed person I'm yes. Yes oh man okay men on base and well that would be our that would -- of the week if we had the show running on the monkey business should I think it's great I think it was going to. Just crush the competition we also another thing that screwed becoming a trend this when WiMax cougar teachers attack. Students in the we have another one in Holyoke going she's an earlier cool -- she's only 22 years old and she's run off with a fifteen year old student. Now while hot for students hunt for students I've looked her up on Google images I can't find anything so I can tell you. I can't tell you exactly how guilty she is if you know what I meant to -- glass -- in the police who loved the story here folks on the wires now max. Police do not believe the boy is in imminent danger of -- I think he's. That's their copper trading -- of the academy of your. Just. You know there was an emotional scar.
