Anyway, his name is Wally George.  It's a trip to go down to
his studio and watch his show.  It's still on.  I agree
with some of his views (actually, a lot), but his his
methods are bizarre.  Ok, I admit, he's a narrowminded bastard!
But it doesn't make his shows any less fun to watch.  Especially
if you agree with most of what he's saying.

BTW: the show that I saw was the Wally-Thon (first annual).
Wierd as shit people there, though.
