I suppose if he sends us free hits of speed we'll be able stay awake long enough to finish reading his columns.

Wasn't he replaced by a robot in the mid 70's? (That's why he was only shot from the waist up, otherwise you'd see all the hoses and cables.) I thought he had to retire because they couldn't find replacement parts. Did he get an upgrade?

Great, another '60's LEFT -over still in the delusional state of thinking that anyone cares about the bile they spew. Isn't "Larry Kink","Boy That's An Awfully Small Peter Jennings", "Damn Blather","Moody Ruff-Ruff", and "AndI'm Looney" from 60 Minutes enough already?
"Faulter ConCrap's" column will do as well as "Phil Dunno-who's" show did on cable.
Put all these clowns on Comedy Central.
