EMMY HAS COME KNOCKIN' --- AGAIN

Just prior to the narcissistic left wing nuts in Hollywood gathering to accept Emmy statues and condolences in an amateurishly unfunny awards show (a broadcast that was rightfully ripped in yesterday's Dallas Morning News) the Lone Star chapter of "Emmy" revealed its nominations for this year's harvest and guess who Emmy has her eye on? That's right, the Razorboy and his Stars broadcast colleagues.

Here are the categories Stars broadcasts are up for and the names of the people who ride my coat tail:

Of course it's an honor just to be nominated (blah blah frickin blah) but truth be told if I don't win I'm gonna cry like a two year old who contrary to what his care provider believes thinks he still has another 30 minutes of teeter-totter in him. I'm going to strike out violently like Naomi Campbell with a house phone and a domestic help issue, and I'll probably drink like Mel Gibson on one of his vulnerable days. And not necessarily in that order.

Wish me luck. For the sake of my future functioning as a contributing member of society – wish me luck.
