Jimmy Fenimore

Where in the World is Jimmy Fenimore? (To the Carmen Sandiego Music)

2009-07-29T01:22:00Z

"Guess who's back. Back again. Guess who's back. Tell a friend."

Hey! How are you? I'm good thanks. A lot has happened since the last time we met. In my life, in the real world, hopefully in your life. Well, despite my hardest attempt at getting a job in broadcasting, I had to get a real job. Sure, I'd still love to be on television or the radio, but for now I was just concentrating on work. For those e-mails from friends, family, and readers about missing me, the feeling is mutual. For those of you who could care less about me? Trust me when I say the feeling is more than mutual. So here I am, back in the saddle but in a different role. Like I told you, I have a real job now and real responsibilities. That being said, I won't be able to post my usual 4-8 articles daily. I can assure you I will post at least once a day and it will be more of my original pieces than me just doing color commentary on stupid athletes, politicians, foreigners and Americans alike. So without further ado, we will play the "What in the world is Jimmy Fenimore doing?!"

Since we last met I moved into the city. I won't tell you exactly where because I can't deal with being stalked by my crazy fans... all three of you that have read my "Where are they now" article 1,209,298 times. I hope you're finally caught up on the Savages. It's been a good time and has yielded me very little sleep. Every weekend I say I'm going to have a nice relaxing couple of days and catch up on my rem. Every weekend turns into a bigger "S" show than the last. Good times. Who knew being twenty something and living in the city would be so much fun? The writers of friends. That's who!

I went to Europe for almost three weeks. Michael Jackson, Steve McNair, Farrah Fawcett, Billy Mays, and Arturo Gotti all died while I was out of the country. Like I always suspected, when I leave, everything goes to hell. Other than those unfortunate deaths, Europe was pretty cool. Obama is kind of a big deal there. Speaking of, I was in Rome for the G-8. No. I wasn't there to protest it. It just happened by coincidence. The morning I was supposed to go to the Vatican, we got held up because Obama was driving by our hotel. I was so close I could have spit on his car. Some people that read this probably think I did. Those of you who know me, know I don't believe in spitting.

As for the future of the blog, I do plan on being here to entertain you for a small portion of your work day. Now that I am in an office setting, I understand why some of you appreciated my blogs. (Even if they couldn't pass an 8th grade english class.) So as unemployment rises, as the economy drops further, and as more people drop dead, I will be here. Guiding you through the dark times. I'm not being the hero. I'm being something else. Something more. With that being said, I can use your help. Always up for story ideas and guest writers. Please e-mail me. JimmyFenimore@gmail.com. Who knows, if you write something somewhat in the english language, I'll publish it. WTF do I care? It's only my name on the site, and my name has been dragged through the mud more times then the 16 year olds at warped tour after a rain shower.

Oh yeah. Good to see you all again.

Where are they now?

2009-03-19T00:57:00Z

I decided to compile a few stars from my childhood who I don't know what they're doing today. My crack research team knew of only one place to go. Wikipedia. Why Wikipedia? Well.....

Ben and Fred Savage: Why do I team up the brothers you ask? Despite both hanging out under beds with monsters as kids, they both also had their own television shows where they landed girls they couldn't even dream of in real life. I'm talking about Topenga from Boy Meets World and Winnie from The Wonder Years. Here's a fun fact, Daniel Stern who did the voice over work for the Wonder Years was also their father in Little Monsters.

I don't know if Ben is actually smart, or just got by because he was a kid sensation. He interned for Senator Arlen Spector, so that's kind of interesting. He also graduate Stanford and he was part of the Sigma Chi frat. Can you imagine being the brothers while Ben Savage pledged? I would demand he bring Topenga to a mixer, during hell week I would play the same three Boy Meets World episodes over and over, and of course, I'd make him dress up like Maurice and hand out flyers on campus. That would be fun as hell.

Oh yeah, apparently he's filming some movie right now. Whatever.

On to Ben. Apparently, this dudes a real stoner. There's no Wiki-evidence of that, but he likes Phish and goes to see them all the time. My guess is stoner. We loved him as Kevin Arnold, but like a lot of these child stars he was too good to be just an actor, he needed to direct. So he started directing his brothers show Boy Meets World, and then he directs a bunch of Nickelodeon shows. He did direct that movie Daddy Day Care for which he won a nomination from the Raspberry Awards for worst director. Congrats Fred! There isn't really a whole lot on Fred, so if you want to go back and watch a masterpiece, watch The Wizard. Fantastic movie. When the kid pulls out the power glove for the first time, a moment in cinematic history.

I was going to put in Elizabeth Berkley in this spot too but she's pretty boring. I did learn one fantastic fact. Remember Showgirls when she bared all to the world? Well she beat out a few other actresses for that role. Jenny McCarthy, Denise Richards, and Charlize Theron. Could you imagine any of those three in that role?! I would have bought the DVD. Who do you want to know about? E-Mail me at Jimmyfenimore@gmail.com.

Advice from your humble blogger

2009-03-19T00:26:00Z

I got an e-mail about a week ago and I wasn't sure if it was serious or not. I could care less because I'd like to discuss it. Basically the gist of the whole thing was if you can hook up or date a girl your buddy was hooking up or dating. Interesting problem to have. At first, I was like no way, not cool at all. Then I started thinking about it, and that's not really a good way to go about it. There has to be exceptions. So, let's see if we can't come up with some rules about when a chick is on and off limits.

If said "dating" took place in high school or the first two years of college it doesn't count. I'm sorry, it just doesn't. You're kids then, she doesn't know anything about you. Like, how much money you have, what kind of 401k plan is set up, where you live, what kind of car you drive, and if you have class or not. Considering all these issues can be resolved in high school and college based on how fast you can bong a beer, no, these years are completely out of the scenario. So if you're interested in a girl your buddy was going out with when he was 16 (and you are at least 22) just go for it. No permission even needed.

Escalation is key. If your friend was hooking up with some girl and never took it too serious, but you want to actually date her, this is fine. If you are willing to go at least one step further then your buddy, it's fair game. So if he met the girl at a bar and made out with her, and you would like to hook up with her on a regular basis, that's totally fine. As long as you're willing to take it more seriously then your friend, you're money.

If he cheated. I've got no love for cheaters. If he cheated, she's fair game to anyone. Double edged sword though. You can't use the cheating as a way to get close to her. So if you dig this girl and you know your buddy is cheating on her, you can't tell her about it to get close. That is a major no no.

I was thinking if your friend was the one that ended it, it would be okay to go for her. Upon further review, I don't think that's a good idea. If that is the case, you need to ask permission from your friend. Another double edged sword. If he says no to you dating her, the next five times you guys are out together he must yield to you first if there is a group of girls you are hanging out with before he makes a move on any of them. 10 times if you have irrefutable evidence that she would be really into you. i.e. e-mail, text, or a SWAK.

The plot to Pearl Harbor? Totally fine. If your friend goes off to war and is presumed dead, you and the so called "widow" get together after the fact. Then he shows back up because he was just just missing in action and not dead. You haven't done anything wrong but not must accept whatever her decision is. If she can't make one, a series of tests will take place to win her heart. They may include but are not exclusive to, arm wrestling, beer pong, 1 on 1 game of hoops, quarters, heads up Texas Hold Em, betting on the most random sporting act around (great during winter olympics because of events like Curling and the Spider), and of course a foot race to the girl, whoever touches her first wins. Basically play ground rules. They worked when you were five, they can work again.

Now, any and all of these rules can be broken if you get married. The problem there is you don't know if it's acceptable until years later because let's get real here, nobody that's stable dates a girl once and thinks they're getting married. Key word is stable. The even trickier part is, if you do decide to get married, do you invite said "friend/ex-boyfriend" to the wedding? If he is involved with another girl yes. If not and he isn't in the bridal party, no invite should be extended. That's just rubbing it in. If he is in the bridal party, he gets first pick on what girl to escort during the ceremony.

None of these rules apply to women. On more then one occasion I have been cited for saying women are the master sex. I believe that. When it comes to this though, absolutely not. Women will yes you to death to your face, then bad mouth you all over town, and if we're being brutally honest here, they are probably right to do so.

Bauer Hour!

2009-03-17T02:03:00Z

I hope Chloe kills Janice. Then it really would be a dork off. Alright, let's get into this.

- Is Olivia going to be more danger prone then Kim Bauer? A wild proposition, but I think it's possible.

- What do you know, the show opens with Jack Bauer on the run, again. Don't we have a license to kill in this country like James Bond had in England? He needs to get his hands on one of those.

- I heard an interesting fact today. Remember when Renee slaps Jack? They were supposed to kiss right after that. The whole dynamic of the show would have changed. It wouldn't make sense though, because Bauer is more of a man then anyone. And all men know, you don't mess with red heads, they are trouble.

- John Quinn. My prediction, he doesn't last the end of the hour. Bauer Enemy Number 1.

- 9:11:30, once again Janice is a back stabbing bitch.

- 9:15:12, Olivia, already throwing her weight around. She needs to take a pill.

- Larry turning his back on the woman he digs. I know chicks like a strong man and all, but dude, you're not playing this right.

- The Senator may be some pinko commy liberal, but he's willing to take a beating, maybe even death. Got to give him credit for that.

- Olivia is leaking information to the press, Olivia = Meghan McCain.

- Well, well, well. Look who Janice needs now. Chloe. Maybe I will get the Dork Steel Cage Match after all.

- I'm telling you right now, if Chloe sees Janice that close to her husband, the you know what is going to hit the fan.

- Is it me, or does this episode just suck? It's 9:36, Jack has been lectured by the senator and that's it. It better end with a bang.

- Do they really think Bauer is trying to kill the senator for vengeance?

- It is impossible to over estimate Bauer?! Larry Moss, you continue to grow on me.

- I hope the Senator and Bauer become buddies. So when the Senator is President next season, Bauer will be called upon.

- "Trust isn't my greatest asset" God, Bauer has one of those lines every show.

- Wow. Did not see that coming. Like the good blogger I am, I will not delete the entry on my predicting he will be President. It's called class.

- At what point is Jack going to find Tony? We got to get the Legion of Doom back together.

- This blood trail has to be a set up. Playing possum, Muhamad Ali style.

- AND I TOTALLY REDEEM MYSELF. Bad comment on the Senator being Preisdent, possum comment, .com genius.

- The way Bauer swings that 2 by 4, he should be in the WBC.

- Bauer enemy number 1 is dead. Who's next on the list?

- And the Legion of Doom is back together!

- Next week looks like we have a lot of action. A lot...of...action.

Iraqi man kills soccer player about to score a goal

2009-03-16T18:51:00Z

Fox News:Police say an Iraqi soccer player has been shot dead just as he was about to kick what could have been the tying goal in a weekend game south of Baghdad. Police Maj. Muthanna Khalid says a striker from the Buhairat amateur team was facing only the goalie during a Sunday match in Hillah when a supporter of the rival Sinjar club shot him in the head in the final minute of play. Sinjar was leading 1-0 when the shooting occurred. Khalid said a spectator was arrested. More Iraqis are turning out for sports events now that security is improving. Major matches in Baghdad are heavily guarded but security in amateur games in smaller cities is often lax.

We at JimmyFenimore.com always search out the silver lining. I think it's pretty obvious what that is here. The psychopaths and loony tunes are back to being normal every day citizens and not country leaders. If you recall, one of Saddam's sons had severely burned the entire national teams feet after losing in international competition. That's just wrong on so many levels. Now .com doesn't support any sort of violence towards athletes unless it's being directed at O.J. Simpson or Adam "Pacman" Jones but we see progress in this tragedy. No longer do Iraqi athletes have to fear being tortured by their leaders. Instead, like the rest of the athletes around the world, they have to fear unruly fans. The truth is, this is small potatoes compared to some of the other Soccer related deaths around the world. We've heard of some nasty brawls regarding Yanks/Sox but these soccer nuts take the cake. From riots to gang beatings, when their team loses, forget it. No one is safe. That's why you need Bruce Willis to be commissioner of all sports. After all, he is the last boy scout.

Boy tried to kill mother for finding his pot

2009-03-16T16:53:00Z

Fox News: COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — A 15-year-old Colorado Springs boy has been arrested for allegedly assaulting his mother after she discovered his stash of marijuana. Police say the boy hit, kicked and choked the woman at their home Sunday afternoon until she lost consciousness. Family members took her to Memorial Hospital, where she was treated and later released.

What's going on here? Colorado parents actually try to catch their kids with pot? I thought that was a perk of living out there, if it grows out of the ground you can smoke it. So maybe some of the parents hold to traditional values. This kid needs to down shift and take a deep breath. You got caught smoking a joint so you try to kill your mother? That's just not cool man. I don't have the numbers in front of me, but I think 89% of teenagers get caught blazing by their parents. It's not big deal. Take the few weeks banned to your room where you can chat online, play Xbox, and yes, continue to smoke joints. Then you learn from your mistakes. Like, maybe not leave your stash on your nightstand when you come home wasted at night and sleep through your mom walking in your room at 1 in the afternoon to check on you because you're still sleeping. Am I projecting here? I think I'm projecting. Let's really think about this, he obviously wasn't high when he freaked out. No stoner is motivated enough to kill someone. So he was probably stone cold sober. What kind of punishment do you think she was trying to implement here? 700 lashings? The only rational thing I could think of is that he got home after a stressful day of being taught how America is the worst place on the planet (this is Colorado after all), and all he wanted to do was unwind with a spliffer. What happens? He finds out his mom stole his stash! (This is Colorado after all). Sometimes you got to put people in line when they steal your stash, I don't doubt that, but come on kid, that's your mom. Sharing is caring.

1 in 7 men think it's cool to slap their woman if she dresses "sexy"

2009-03-11T18:18:00Z

London Times One in seven people believe it is acceptable in some circumstances for a man to hit his wife or girlfriend if she is dressed in “sexy or revealing clothes in public”, according to the findings of a survey released today. A similar number believed that it was all right for a man to slap his wife or girlfriend if she is “nagging or constantly moaning at him”.

Once again the good people of England show their true colors. When the Prime Minister gave Obama some awesome historic gift the other day and Obama gave him 25 DVD's, I had no problem with the English being salty about that. Now, I don't really care what they think. Are they a nation of pimps? This is coming off the heels or the whole Rihanna beating. This is something I would have liked to addressed in a podcast, but who knows if those things will be coming back. I don't know if you heard, but she struck a deal with Chris Brown saying if he does so much as squeeze her arm too tight he has to give her 10 million bucks. Now if I was her, millionaire or not, I'd be saying some pretty mean stuff to him and "chase that papah eyy eyyy eyyy". That's obviously not the most sound relationship.

Getting back to England. 1 in 7 think it's ok to slap a woman because she dresses sexy? What about if she doesn't put out? Is that like, 5 in 7? You can hit a woman in England if she nags at you? Heres what I say to the Queen. Make this law, let men hit a woman for dressing sexy or nagging, but also put in the law that a woman can cut off a mans appendages if they come home drunk, refuse to turn off the "football" game in favor of England Idol, get laid off, forget a major birthday or holiday, and finally, if they ever complain about their in-laws. At the end of the day, a man should be happy his woman wants to dress sexy, it beats the alternative.

Bauer Hour

2009-03-11T01:46:00Z

Today we dedicate this blog to a great American. A man that looked evil in the eye, grew a snazzy beard, wore a black turtle neck and beat it back with a stick. Sure, when we first met him like all new comers he didn't trust Bauer. Like most however, he learned the error of his ways and trusted him so much, that he took his place and gave his life to protect the President. Bill Buchanan will be missed. I love when the clock makes no noise after a cast member dies. However, when Janice goes, I hope they turn the clock noise up just a little louder. Maybe have a clown jump on screen with a cake as we celebrate her demise. Let's get to the rest of the show.

Jon Voight like really doesn't like the President. I hope he's someone cool. Remember Jacks brother and father? That should have been a real big deal and it felt anti climactic. Voight should be like the head of the Bildabergs of the Free Masons or something. All this talk about people missing from the administration and Aaron bringing up Martha makes me think that maybe a few old suits may show up. That would be fun.

Larry Moss better stop interrupting Jack. Sure he actually has a position in the government, but he's also a sissy mary. So he better watch his mouth. I am curious to know how the whole Renee suspension thing plays out. Maybe she joins "CTU on wheels"? If so, I hope her first order of business is bringing back the old phones. Don't you miss the way the ring? It's the little things that make me happy.

By the way, remember Michelle Dessler? Well, if you were as big a fan as I was, you will be happy to know she is on LOST now. Unfortunately, the climate on a tropical Island doesn't let her wear leather jackets, so you will have to deal with her in a sun dress.

So the interrogation was actually kind of fun before the whole gas and stab routine. The Bauer whisper is a greater deterrent then the arms build up. At what point is Larry Moss going to pull the old Bill Buchanan and start trusting Jack? My guess is the next few hours it will happen. I hope it happens soon though, because that's when the fun will start.

Saved by the Bell.... A Social Phenomenon

2009-03-10T18:08:00Z

This morning I was up at 7 a.m. As many of my contemporaries know, there is only one thing to do at that hour on a week day. Watch Saved by the Bell re-runs. Now people who know me and my readers alike know that Saved by the Bell is my main source of knowledge. Much of my character was derived from that show. Today though, I realized it had a much bigger influence on me then I ever realized. It embraced the most obvious of stereotypes. I could take offense to it, but instead, I enjoy it. I know what you're thinking. "Not Saved by the Bell! It's so innocent!" That's what you think.

The two episodes I watched were when Zach and Slater were fighting over who gets to take Kelly to Prom. Zach wins obviously, because well, that's what he does. He's a winner. If you remember, Kelly can't go because her dad gets laid off and she can't afford a dress. Now you may be thinking, well her last name is Kapowski, and she is Polish. Maybe her fathers level of intelligence is why he got laid off. But that is not where I'm going with this. (Please remember I am speaking in stereotypes, in no way do I think polish people are stupid. I think all people are stupid, some of them are from Poland, some from other places.) What you don't remember about this episode is that the whole gang goes to the movies because Screech is trying to woo Lisa to being his prom date. What do you think happens through out the whole movie? Yup, you guessed it. Lisa Turtle, the lone african american main stay of the cast talks through out the whole movie! Can you believe that! Even in the early 1990's they were exploiting this stereotype! She ruins the movie for everyone so much that Screech refuses to go to prom with her! That's a whole lot of talking. I was in awe when I had this revelation.

The second episode was when Zach finally asks Kelly to go "steady". On a side note, I always wondered, did this ever really happen? Did people really ask to go steady? Can someone over the age of 40 please clear this up for me. The only way I ever knew of people getting together is getting drunk on a random night, maybe making some bad decisions, keep repeating until somehow it happens when you're sober, then getting roped into meeting her family, ultimately knowing what the rest of your life looks like and ending the whole thing. I would just like to know if this so called "steady" technique ever actually took place. Sorry about that, I digress. While Zach is awaiting the answer of Kelly a new faculty member comes to work at the school and BOY is she SMOKING. It turns out not only is she the school nurse, but I'm pretty sure I haven't seen nurses on Halloween wear outfits this sexy. This was a Saturday morning show for kids! Now I know why my generation goes out on Halloween and girls wear dental floss as bikini tops. Hey, I'm not complaining.

At the end of all this hard work and research it just confirms the fact that no television show had a greater influence on a generation then Saved by the Bell. People can say what they want in the opposition and you know what? They would be wrong. WWZMD?

My School Shut Down!

2009-03-05T15:10:00Z

Some of you know this, some of you don't. When I drop a post saying "Going to the studio, be back later", I'm going to the school. Connecticut School of Broadcasting has been around for five decades and they closed their doors in an odd way. At 10:30 last night I received an e-mail from the director of my school on Long Island. Basically he said the school and studio were shutting down and won't be opened until further notice. There are 25 other campuses across the nation. I'm sure those graduates got an e-mail too. So the school that taught broadcasting, had no idea how to use it.

Keep in mind, I have no problem with local teachers and directors. This was a business decision plain and simple. The old cut an run strategy reminiscent of the bank collapse during the great depression. Sure, our life savings weren't behind the doors of CSB as it was in those banks. Instead it was our futures that were behind the doors. People have demo reels they have poured their heart and soul in for months on end in hopes to get some low paying, high stress job in the field they want. Others have work behind those doors. Work they're proud of. Work they want to show their friends and family. Maybe it's just work they want to watch or listen to in order to improve their skills. How did the broadcasting school handle this? Told staff to pack their stuff, get out and not to talk to anyone. Pinned a note on the door for students to read as they woke up this morning to go to class. For us graduates, we got an e-mail. Again, I have no problem with the local staff, it's not their fault. It's the people in headquarters I have a major problem with.

In an age where broadcasting is all day, every day, in a million different ways, the school we trusted to teach us that, forgot to utilize it. In todays world, in no way should someone be going to work or school only to see a sign that says "Go home, idiot." How did we have no idea this was coming? How did we as future broadcasters not investigate this further? How can the school act so crudely? A major selling point for me was lifetime access to the studio after graduating. I thought any tuition was worth that, because unlike critics of the school, I actually know how much it costs to book studio time.

Our director was kind enough to send us an e-mail, but the students all over the country just showed up and saw a note? Is that some sort of joke? The kids spent a ton of money and all you do for them is post a note? Be creative, you're a broadcasting school. Cut together a video, maybe do a podcast like me, or maybe, just maybe, you could have given someone a heads up so at the very least, they could make sure they took their work from the studio and brought it home. Nah. Instead it's the cut and run, the bait and switch, the cap and trade. Despite what people want you do think, there are good people, and there are bad people. It's very simple. The clowns that came up with this idea, the people claiming to care about training people for broadcasting and being a beacon of the education world, those people, are bad, bad people. No convincing me otherwise.

Thoughts and prayers to all staff from the Westbury campus. Godspeed.

R2D2... a misunderstood droid.

2009-03-04T21:13:00Z

Ever wonder what he really said? Well here is his shots from Episode 1 with subtitles. The first minute is good stuff, then it gets a little boring. Episode 1 was pretty bad huh?

Time to hang it up Britney.

2009-03-04T19:29:00Z

It hurts me deeply to say this, but it's time to throw the towel in. I'm sure her Circus tour will sell out everywhere and she will make boat loads of money. So what. That picture is only the start. Check out more here. Watching her now is like watching a once great hitter walk up to the plate and strike out on three pitches, not coming close to one of them. In fact, it's a celebration when he fouls one off. No good. I would never tell someone when to retire, if people are willing to pay you, God bless. But at this point my dear, you are a shell of your former self and you have officially tarnished your sex symbol image.

This got me thinking. It's also a sad day for America when a girl at 27 looks old, washed up, and down. Is this what it's coming to? Teenagers or nothing? I fear we are turning into Iran or something. Where people will be stalking 14 year olds, wifeing them up at 18, divorcing them at 28 and starting over. Don't get me wrong, I'd still like to "date" Ms. Spears for a 45 minute to 6 hour period, but I wouldn't sell body parts to do it anymore. Where do I go from here? Have I gotten that old that the sex symbol from my high school days is washed up? This is a defining moment in my life. When Jeter retires, all my heroes from when I was kid will have retired, and the Sex Symbol from my generation will be gone. Where do I go from there? I can't start looking at Miley Cyrus, that girl is like 12! You can be locked up for just thinking about her in that sort of way! Should I call it quits? Just give up? Move to Africa and help Sangalan children build a school? I don't know. I'm lost. Just as news was getting better with the Stock Market going up, I see these pictures. A dark day for America. A dark day indeed.

Man-Ram Signs!

2009-03-04T17:12:00Z

As you may have heard Manny signed with the Dodgers. Yes, he did indeed sign a contract which his agent Scott Boras initially said "We're waiting for real offers." Got to love baseball and all the fun stuff that comes along with it. What does this mean for LA? Well, they have a dominant force in the middle of the line up for an entire season. Well, if Manny decides he wants to play the whole season. Joe Torre is probably the perfect coach for him. Laid back, not going to get in your face and let you do your thing. The Dodgers should try to sign Pedro too. Why not? It would be fun to see him, Joe and Manny in Dodger blue. The NL west is kind of a joke as it is, so I think LA will run away with the division. I guess the D-Backs can contend, but San Diego and San Francisco may as well sell off anyone making more then 2 million dollars.

Cubs, Dodgers, Phillies, and Mets in the playoffs? Sounds about right. We all know baseball is a little wacky and at least one of those teams don't make the post season, probably two of them.

MLBTradeRumors.com is a great site for the latest signings and deals. Check it out.

What's better then Bauer Hour? Bauer TWO Hours!

2009-03-03T21:07:00Z

I forgot it was a two hour special where EVERYTHING is going to change. Well I'll be the judge of that. That's why the post is way late. I know I have commented on how the show is parallel to real life in some ways. Now Congressmen and Senators are investigating the CIA for there "War on Terror tactics." Sound familiar? That's what I thought. It's not easy being me.

-Janice, oh Janice. We have two hours to off you! Fingers Crossed!

- Watching the previews, that wheel chair lady is annoying. I hope she's off now that "Everything is going to change!"

- Oh yeah, "Next time you point a gun at me, you better be prepared to use it." That will be in my wedding vows.

- General Juma, I like him already.

- Someone has to have a running count of how many times Jack has pulled a gun on one of his team members. My guess would be somewhere over 2,000. The sleeper hold was a nice touch though.

- Janice vs. Chloe. Battle of the nerd chicks!

- How can you say Bauer isn't getting soft? A tazer? Back in the day he would have knee capped the guy, then questioned him.

- Speaking of running counts, that has to be the 15th time Chloe has been arrested.

- I take that back, because Jack can pull the trigger another 128 times before the battery dies! How do you not want to just take him out for a beer.

- I love the Senator lecturing Bauer. His Chief of Staff is a traitor and he's lecturing people.

- Unable to look evil in the eye! Bauer is the gaining momentum here.

- Arrest Bauer? What a joke. Bring back Palmer.

- I hope they say "Oh, your lawyer is here." And in walks Jack Bauer, hell even Bill Buchanan would be good.

- Question. Where the hell are you taking a boat in D.C.?

- Which also makes me think, the White House should have a moat. Gators and all. That would be awesome. I'd run for President if there was a moat.

-Renee swims funny.

- Hour 1, over. Not much has changed. Get ready for some madness!

- I forgot about Aaron! Bauer, Aaron, Bill all in the White House at once? Juma has no idea what he's getting himself into.

- I'm just spit balling here, but I think the reason The First Daughter hates her mom is because she caught her having an affair with the Chief of Staff.

- At least that state trooper got a line in the show before he was killed.

- I know you think this is far fetched, the whole getting into the White House thing, but Iran has the specs to Marine One. So, why not?

- Once again the Sh@@ hits the fan so we turn to Bauer.

- They just took the wrong hostage.

- There has to be protocol for when the President is taken hostage. That can't be it.

- I think the whole White House should be wired with sleeping gas. So if this did happen, you just gas everyone.

- Jon Voight! Grandfather to all of Angelina's refugees!

- Don't think I didn't know Voights little friend is Lucas from Empire Records! Or the stoner from Dazed and Confused!

- How dare the President ask about Kim Bauer.

- Didn't Jack disable the door? How come he can open it now?

- There is a better then excellent chance Bauer is going to go nutty.

- Next weeks episode looks good. Should have listened to Bauer.

Yankees vs. USA!

2009-03-03T20:08:00Z

So the Yanks are playing team USA in hopes of getting them ready for the world baseball classic. Joe Girardi said this to the team. "If any of you come anywhere near Jeter, pack your bags because you're going home." I love it. I'm sure he wouldn't mind about knocking into the first or second basemen though. Here are a few things I found around the web.

A woman calls 911 THREE times because McDonalds was out of McNuggets. She is now locked up. Take it from me. I know when you really want something to eat, and have your mind set on something like McNuggets, you need those damn McNuggets. So freaking out at the counter would have been cool. But calling 911? Come on. There are much greater things 911 needs to deal with. Such as the other day Subway was out of wheat bread. How are you out of wheat bread! It's like the most used bread ever! You are a sub shop! Get your damn act together Jared. How the hell are Americans going to lose 200 lbs like you did without wheat bread! Link of the Mc911er.

The audio of the call.

After listening to it, this lady is right. They wouldn't refund her money. They promised her nuggets, she paid for nuggets, but there's no nuggets! Give her the damn money back! That is criminal! She got arrested for this? That's a joke. I hope whoever arrested her gets canned.

In Fort Worth Texas guards are being charged with having sex with inmates. I don't really see a problem here. Unless the Judge specifically said "Not only are you doing 3-6 years in prison, you can have no contact with other human beings or animals (after all, they are criminals, who knows what their into.)" If you have a consenting guard, and a consenting inmate, why not let them bump uglies? It's my experience when people are having "physical" relationships, they tend to be happy and less violent. I would think this is a good practice for prisons. Instead of making a jail house shiv to kill a rival inmate, you get to use your shiv for other things. Ohhhh! Who says inmates and guards can't get along?

You may have heard about this crap. And it really ticks me off. Some actors went to Iran, yes THAT Iran to talk to leaders about God knows what. Now, I'm not sure Iran is considered an "Enemy of the State" but if it is, isn't this treason? By law, you're not allowed to visit an enemy country unless you are an elected official charged with the duty by the government. Not to mention, who the hell do these people think they are? You want to send Deniro? Fine. Pacino? Let's do it. Nobody messes with those two. Who do they send? Annette Bening? Are you serious? She hasn't been relevant since 1990, and even then, the jury is still out. If Iran thinks we're a country made of people like this, they will be sending bombs over here in no time. We have to let them know NOBODY is like these softies. Send 50 Cent over there, let them think we're all gangsta's with bullet proof vests, AK47's and hummers. They will want no part of us. I also love how these actors stick up for Iran and Venezuela. We should start treating them the way those countries treat their people. Watch how quick they scurry back to La La land. Get a real job and be quiet. All to self important actors.

When I saw this story, I was shocked. Then I realized it happened in Washington State. Kind of par for the course up there. A mother took a baseball bat and nailed a sex offender with it. (This is not the shocking part.) She got three months in jail. (That was.) She accused him of molesting her daughters, (I don't think he actually did) and struck him with the bat. Three months in jail? I say, if you're a sex offender. I mean a real one. Not someone who was 19 and their girlfriend was 17. ::Cough Cough::. I'm talking one of these real low lives that goes after children. I think you should be fair game as a pinata for the rest of your natural life. In fact, I think the kids you abused should get the first cracks, then they get to be the one to blind fold and spin the participants. (My reason for this is, they can really not spin them and put the blind fold on loose if you know what I mean). But, Washington is ass backwards and lucky they're still part of the Union. Unfortunately, they are closer to the D.C. mentality then we are. Swing batter batter batter.

So this has been making some news lately. In Maine some half genius, half deranged guy opened a topless coffee shop. Having both men and women servers, it's an equal opportunity pectoral showcase. At first, I loved the idea. If the coffee was good anyway. I mean, boobs are great and all, but nothing makes up for a bad cup of coffee. There is one major flaw in this little plan. Coffee spills, it splashes and it burns...bad. After a week of working at this place, you're not going to want to look at any of these people with all their 2nd degree burns and welts on their bodies. I say, nice initiative man, but the plan is flawed. Keep thinking outside the box though. I'd like to see topless bank tellers. That may get me to put my money back in the vault. Coffee + Boobs = well I don't know what it equals.

Hit me up!

2009-03-03T17:06:00Z

I didn't watch 24 last night. I have it on the DVR and plan on watching it within the next 90 minutes, I will live blog the show this week, so check back later for more. Until then, e-mail me some good stuff, JimmyFenimore@gmail.com. Get it? Got it. Good.

People liked the dumb and dumber clip yesterday. Question? Can you triple stamp a double stamp? I just don't know...

How much would this suck?

2009-03-02T15:05:00Z

I can't figure out what the worse feeling is, being the goalie or being a player wanting to kill the goalie. You make the call. JimmyFenimore@gmail.com. Click it good, click it right, click it every day and night.

Snow Day!

2009-03-02T14:58:00Z

Boy do I love a good old fashioned snow day. The definition of an old fashioned snow day is simple. When nobody goes to work period. The only people that get there are the city dwellers and people that are absolutely looney tunes. Yes, I know it's March. I know you are all sick and tired of this crapola. You know what? Enjoy it one last time. Grab your snow gear and hit the sleds. Maybe just grab the one you love and build a snow man, maybe even get in a snowball fight...

Entertainment Podcast!

2009-02-27T20:33:00Z

Hit me up at JimmyFenimore@gmail.com. If you can't listen to the whole thing, I suggest the second half. Shannon has a great story for all you kids out there. A lesson in, well I don't know what you can learn from it. But it's damn funny.

Quick hits on a slow Friday...

2009-02-27T20:16:00Z

Not a whole lot going out there today. Lucky for you, a podcast is soon to follow! Mike Vrabel got traded to KC. Haynsworth signs with the Redskins for 40 million in guaranteed money. The offense is still awful. Well done Skins. Jets are making a few splashes already and Manny refuses to sign a contract. I think it's because he doesn't want to attend spring training. Maybe he doesn't know spring training started. Who the hell knows what he's thinking.

Here is an article about hate music that is found on mainstream sites like itunes. I'm a big freedom of speech guy, and I should be considering I blog. That being said, freedom of speech doesn't have to transcend into the private sector. Therefor, itunes should probably pull white power music. While they're at it, get Chris Brown off too.

Anyone else out there watching the new 90210? Well people must be. Hot off the heels of the "new" 90210's success, the CW green lights a "new" Melrose Place! I don't remember the show too much, only that Princess Vespa was a main stay of the cast. "Great. That's all we need. A drewish princess!" I also recall it was very sexual and borderline soft core status. I don't think the CW will be able to air that kind of show. I predict a huge flop on their end, but who knows. Maybe 1 million viewers is all they're trying to pull. Check out the story on THR.Com.

What's with models? I think they're like the Wide Receivers of the entertainment world. Absolutely bat Sh@# crazy. They not only throw temper tantrums, but they throw cell phones and other objects trying to inflict pain on people less beautiful then them. Lady, you won. You're a model and have teenage boys around the world dying to "be" with you. No need to make other peoples lives that much worse then yours. My humble opinion on why they're crazy? The rest of us get to eat pizza. And pizza is damn good. Check out this story about a model cutting a chick with a wine glass. I told you. Bat sh@# crazy.
