[Go ahead, make my day]

   There is a movie running right now on Cinemax called "Young Lady Chatterly",
it's another T&A fest like "Goodbye Emmanuelle".  It's been severly cut, to the
point of containing almost no nudity.  What's really disturbing is that it's a
repeat from a few months ago, that's where I first saw it.  I don't know if
Cinemax cut it or if it's a reissue, but either way someone is looking out for
my sensibilities, and I don't like that.  I'm becoming very frustrated by
the conservative, LCD tendencies of HBO and Cinemax in particular and Time-Life
in general.  Austin Cabelvision is owned by T/L so we have no other movie
channel choices, and the only other channel worth watching is ACTV public 
access (:-)).
   I think Joe Bob Briggs ought to start a movie channel, The T&A Network.  I'd
subscribe.  If I see "Silent Rage" or "How to Beat the High Cost of Living" one
more time I'm going to plug the cable into the power socket.  I pay good money
for that trash, I want my money's worth.

Low-Budgetedly yours,
