Tonight is the season finale for “24”. An appropriate opportunity to discuss the plethora of “pistol-packin’ hotties” that fill our plasma screens these days. Agent Walker will ably assist Jack tonight and return next season with “romantic sparks” tween her and JB. But she’s just one of dozens of “Hotties Packin Heat” across the dial in ‘09. …..
The Big Blue Gorilla: I didn’t see it until a Wuff and a Deacon both pointed it out. Some of the recent empty seats in Greensboro were indeed HDTV casualties but most were because The Big Blue 500 lb Gorilla had left the building. Love’em or Loath’em ….. Royz Boyz and them what follow’em are a significant factor to Little Johnny Swofford & to the suits in Bristol. …..
…. Esteemed Mecklenburg barrister P. Coleman Buck once profundicated “I thought I knew everything worth knowing when I was in the 6th grade. 50 years later I am convinced I was right.” ….. This week I received a text message from our Mizzou senior “Kid”. “Dad, I just realized I’m smarter than most people”. I replied “DUH! My dear, that gift comes with a curse. Use it wisely.” ….. Aren’t we ALL “smarter than most people”? …… (btw; “Kid” really IS!) …. And some TV show reviews.
….. Friday, March 13, 2009. Friday The 13th ?? Thinking of Jason Voorhees in his hockey mask? Actually “March 13” should bring back even more bizarre memories ….. of 610 North Buchanan Blvd in Derm and a duffus named Nifong and one of the most disgusting blunder in the history of modern journalism. ….. Today is the 3rd Anniversary of The Duke Lacrosse Scandal.
Appropriate and Acceptable ?? Says Who??? This lawless wasteland we call The Internet has completely discombobulated the spectrum of Appropriate and Acceptable. It’s Katy Bar The Door ’cause Anything Goes……
…. I only “grew up” once and have never really completed the process (kinda like my Masters thesis!). …. Everyone’s growing up was not “like mine” but whenever I pull some rabbit outta my yesteryear hat a bunch of you say “me too BobLee”. Did your growing up have “a Dr Randall”? Mine passed away last week. …..
…. Excuse the 10,000s rushing to Wal-Mart today for Tar Heel gear. Yesterday’s Game Of The Millenium has rightfully ignited a Bandwagon Bonfire for Butch …. Move over FSU (’01) and Miami (’04) and NCSU (’04),

Fishing Piers all along the Eastern Seaboard reported a spike in bizness on Tuesday. …. “That column” did it again. …. A recent strategery meeting at Mez sparks today’s column revealing the secret behind the BCS Playoff controversy – A Bombshell Expose!
No, I was not kidnapped by gypsies or bitten by a tick. …. We have been travelin’ but that’s not why Ye Olde Website has been stuck in neutral. …. I’ve been wrestling with an “issue” which I will now reveal ….
IT’S HERE! Primary Day in North Carolina…. Anticipated with the enthusiasm that Benson citizens feel on Mule Day or a Spivey’s Corner resident’s pride on Hollerin’ Contest Day. … or the goggle-eyed fervor of board monkeys on National Signing Day.
Back in the 40s there was a fictional character called “Jack Armstrong – All American Boy”. I’ve found two such young men still among. Meanwhile Ol’ Roy’s “Piss’em ALL Off Dadgummit Tour” enters Phase Three.
Like No Bizness I Know!In my unceasing efforts to slow down America’s descent into the bottomless pit of incivility and general moral decadence, BobLee may have found yet another point of light in the Stygian abyss. …. Those Great Broadway Musicals ! ….. and on the silly inconsequential side,
