I am sure that they would have had the common sense to change their last name----I certainly would have!

Apparently, there are some Hitler's still out there. Most say, "we had the name first!" And I thought I got into a lot of fights growing up!

"Hill Street Blues" had a recurring character "Vic Hitler" who was a great comic but he suffered from narcolepsy on stage. In the end they began calling him "Vic Hitler - The Narcoleptic Comic". You can't make this stuff up!

I remember that! Also Ade Edmondson's character on Bottom was named Edward Elizabeth Hitler.

Actually, considering Hill Street Blues was a fictional television series, you can make that stuff up. :D

I went back and re-read my original post I wondered who'd be the first to throw something. I figured it'd ToE or the scruffy bearded fellow... but no... it was YOUUUUU!!!!

I suppose I could be considered a scruffy bearded fellow, so your instincts are intact. ;)

Ice Road Truckers. I have no idea why, I swear to God, I'm smart!
I suffer from the same affliction. It's the same thing episode after episode--ill-maintained trucks falling apart or breaking down, tempers flaring, warnings of dangers that never occur on-screen, etc.--but I still watch. I was a delivery driver professionally with three different companies for a total of about 7.5 years so, though I've never driven in snow and have only driven a tractor/trailer rig once for a distance of approximately 50 feet, I can sympathize with how much of a pain-in-the-backside that job can be most of the time even under the best of circumstances.

My wife records it, so I watch it.
Kind of like Eve handed me the apple. :D
We like it for such reasons as Art couldn't find his truck if it wasn't so big.
Plus his inability to use the English language.
I didn't know sob was official weather terminology, I've never heard our weatherman use it.
"It's really snowing like a son of a b*tch."
I need to consult NOAA on this.


WCW War Games WCW's Most Notorious Matches.
The 4 Horsemen, Lex Lugar, Nikita Koloff, The Road Warriors, and Dusty Rhodes in a steel cage match.
THIS is good television.
While I love, love, love watching the old WCW matches, it's bittersweet because of those who have died, as a result of what the industry did to their bodies, or what they did to compete in it.

My wife and I have been binge-watching Little Dorrit from the BBC.
We had to put the subtitles on when an actor rattles off a rapid line like, "Wilted fair away, sly as Somerset, as I'm sure you would be saying, m'lady, and that's a true nobbins." Even with this slight distraction, it's really good stuff.
