I always wanted him to offer $500 for someone with an ounce of self-respect to offer.

I think reality shows have demonstrated there was still quite a ways to go to find the bottom of barrel of self-humiliation besides wearing silly costumes.

I don't think it is still on, but there was one that gave away money for the most ruinous true confession you could make about yourself. You had to confess and then pass a lie detector test to verify you did the awful thing you claimed.

I saw him live 5 months ago. A little past his prime maybe, but he could still bring it. Sad news.

Those great musicians from the 60s and 70s are rockin' on more than ever. I wonder if the realization of their mortality drives them to creativity.They say Freddie Mercury wrote at a frantic pace as his time approached.
