She's a bouncy little thing, isn't she?



I was trying to find out what happened to Kenneth Eng, the "Why I Hate Blacks" guy. It appears I'm not alone. Funny how you can set off a racial firestorm that involves everyone from the NAACP and the House Speaker, and then make the world go away by masturbating into your plushie doll collection.

What I did find, however, was an unedited version of the column, proving the fine folks at AsianWeek at least did some work on this piece. Ha ha.

The superior find, however, was the above video, which immediately transported me back to 1980. When you're 12, there's nothing better than watching Battle of the Network Stars and seeing your favorite TV stars kick the asses of your little sister's favorite TV stars. Except, that is, for Chachi, who, I admit, OWNED the obstacle course event -- and Howard Cosell's heart:

"A tremendous victory! Scott Baio, what a victory! C'mere! Top of the heap! King of the hill! 'A' number one! Scott Baio, what a performance!"

It's almost like Cosell wants to take that scruffy little Scott Baio home and nuzzle him cooingly, while brushing his cigar-stained fingers up and down his back. Step off, Joanie!

Nice, too, were the days when one could call one's female co-star a "bouncy little thing."
