JGT addresses rumors that didn’t exist until he just made them up

Yes, I was in New York over the weekend. Had a great time. Went to a speakeasy type bar called Milk and Honey (which had some interesting house rules) on Saturday and last night went to Upright Citizens Brigade show. Even saw that giant tree at Rockefeller Center. I did not spend time with Booker and Alycia Lane while I was in New York, nor was I part of the couple that was allegedly in the cab with Alycia and Booker. Nor did I try to set Booker up by planting that slow cop car there in an effort to get him arrested so I could take his lady while he was behind bars, only to see my devious yet brilliant plan backfire horribly when the lovely Alycia allegedly took out that cop with an uppercut. That is a ridiculous rumor and I don’t even know where you heard it from, but it’s absurd. Oh, and a quick question: If the cop she allegedly called a “f****** dyke” before she allegedly punched is in fact a lesbian, does this become a hate crime?

RELATED: Dyke cop gets what’s coming to her.

UPDATE: Holy hell, Joey Sweeney at Philebrity already asked a lawyer if this constitutes a hate crime. Geesh, I thought I was just joking.

The Donspiracist Presents: Are Flu Shots a Dangerous Scam?

conspiracy.jpg
It’s that time of year again, and I don’t mean Christmas. I mean flu season. A time when when old and young alike are cautioned to run to the doctor to get their shots before this year’s supply runs out. After all, we never know when the next pandemic will arrive, right? And by then, it will be too late.

Or won’t it?

Fact is, there hasn’t been a flu pandemic since 1968. I was only an infant then, but if you listen to the media and to your doctor and to the government, the next big worldwide pandemic, a ravaging disease of unimaginable virulence, lurks in the closet like the bogeyman. It may pounce at any moment, and what will you do if you’re unprotected?

Can anyone say “bird flu”?

On the crest of this wave of seasonal panic is the announcement that New Jersey is about to become the first state — and the first governmental body anywhere in the world, in fact — to require flu vaccine. REQUIRE it.

Granted, the requirement is only limited to children under 10. And aside from that, only other high risk groups, like older people and those with respiratory or immune diseases, are strongly encouraged to take the shot. Those who are healthy and young, ie 20’s to 40’s, usually can risk going without, but if you listen to doctors and the CDC you are making yourself vulnerable if you make that choice. Flu, after all, kills 36,000 people a year, according to the CDC.

However, those numbers are widely disputed, and, as someone who has chronic asthma, I can definitively state that I have never taken the flu shot. Nor do I ever intend to. And I strongly counsel my family and friends to do the same, and if I had children, I would NOT let them get it. I wouldn’t want them to risk their health with this dangerous and unnecessary procedure.

One of the Wildest Weeks in Quizzo History

crazy_insane.gif
Gotta do a week in review this week. I can’t remember a single week in quizzo history where this much went down.
First, Philly rocked the nation at the City vs. City Smackdown. Speaking of Smackdown, her team almost pulled off the biggest upset ever.

The new online quizzo went up on Fox. This is the episode where I almost get captured by the giant lobster.

The Bombs implode in Round Four at the Bards on Tuesday.

A wild Wednesday, as the Jams lose for the 2nd week in a row, and Duane’s World doesn’t even crack the top 5. HIghest score of the week is at Black Sheep and is a 3 man team that included the Black Sheep chef.

Axis of Evil Knieval blows a lead going into the final round at the Good Dog, and a stacked Sofa Kingdom team falls to the Western Omelette in overtime.

In addition to that, a wild political discussion on the comments section under Bob T.’s latest piece, including the first time I think I’ve ever seen Steve O get mad, and Chip’s interview with Bob Thompson doesn’t work out the way he hoped.

What a week!

Apology

I’ve been slacking on my photos of teams lately. The problem is that I lost the thingie that hooks pics into the laptop, then I bought another one and it didn’t work. So I tried to upload the photos onto my Mac but it erased a few of them. Anyways, so now I gotta buy yet another picture connector thingie*, which hopefully I can do manana and get the photos up asap. Thanks for your patience.

*sorry to get all technical on you guys.

Very Late Night

I don’t remember a lot of it. I do remember that it involved cognac, Albuquerque, and Ezra Pound. Anyways, I’m just getting up. Another meltdown from a high profile team at the Good Dog and a thriller at the Bards last night. Socreboard and a new one from the Donspiracist coming soon.

Chip Chantry interviews Fred Thompson!

740508658_l (Custom).jpg
Author’s Note: The past two weeks have obviously been a whirlwind for me. Since my interview with Mike Huckabee was posted, The Huck has turned into a juggernaut in the polls- his ratings soaring, his popularity increasing with every hit on johnnygoodtimes.com.

Sure, it was revealed that in 1992, The Huck thought that AIDS patients should be isolated from society… In 1992 I thought that Right Said Fred was going to be the next big thing… we all make mistakes! Irregardless, my article was just the springboard that the Huckabee camp needed.

I would like to say that my piece on Dennis Kucinich had the same effect. However, no one has seen D-Train since he left a Los Angeles nightclub early one morning last week with Owen Wilson and Steve Coogan.

That being said, I was quite disheartened to find that, after a number of attempts, I was unsuccessful in landing an interview with Republican candidate Fred Thompson. His staff declined to arrange an interview, and Fred’s hot wife, Jeri, is quite snippy when you follow her home from her Pilates class.

Needless to say, I was unable to speak with Mr. Thompson. However, not wanting to disappoint my readers, I figured that I would get the next best thing. Knowing that Fred Thompson is, first, an actor, I decided to interview an actor that reminds me of Mr. Thompson, to perhaps get in his head. I found this to be equally challenging. The following actors were either unavailable or unwilling to grant me an interview:

John Voight
Abe Vigoda
Anthony Hopkins
Hal Linden
Anjelica Huston
Kelsey Grammer
Craig T. Nelson

When all hope seemed lost for this week’s column, a miracle occurred. I came across a man who, in this reporter’s opinion, is a carbon copy of Fred Thompson in mind, body and soul.

That man is Conrad Bain, TV’s Mr. Drummond.
