Another One Bites The Dust: Like every drug bust we see on television, the news late yesterday that WorldCom declared bankruptcy is said to be "the biggest." The news starts this sweltering week off badly but we shall prevail.

Grab Your Sox and Not Your Stox: New York Stock Exchange honcho Dick Grasso made the Sunday rounds telling us all to hang tough, hold on, keep our heads down, our powder dry and don't panic. Plenty of platitudes but good advice all together. As the Brits stay.........steady on.

Go. We Are Begging You: The good people of Ohio should rise up as one and demand Gas Bag (literally) James Traficant stop representing them this instant. This looks like his last week which is good news. He isn't even colorful anymore.

Bubble Heads: While you are keeping your hands off the phone and that unpatriotic call to your broker, read this editorial in the Washington Times. Tony Blankley is in charge of the clear headed editorial thinking over there now and we like what he has to say about the birth of the bubble.

The Fox and Larry (No) Show: Sunk deep in Howie Kurtz's Monday piece is a look at the problems Larry Klayman is having with Fox over his most recent publicity gambit of suing the hands that fed and deeply annoying the hands that write checks. Buried even deeper in this tidbit is the real reason you won't see the judicial gadfly on that cable station. Even before this latest bit, he "demanded" to be on. They hate it when that happens. One Ldotter comments that Klayman has been "Brocked" which reminded us that we've heard the feckless turncoat is back in the hospital. We are told he's avoiding those who are "out to get him."

Radio Daze: There is a great deal of turmoil in online radio streaming of late. Here's one example: Yahoo.com is another. They have dropped archiving shows and ours is one of them. If you want to listen on the web you will now have to listen live at the ungodly hour of 8:00 a.m. EST to catch our pearls of wisdom on the TalkRadioNetwork.com web site.
