Speaking of lack of charisma, what ever happened to Yakov Smirnov's nephew? (or was it his son...i cant remember)

Nephew.  Akira.  Many were convinced he was Steinberg.  I had forgotten all about him.  Thus, unsurprisingly, the dangling of his plot thread troubles me nought.

Akira Smirnov tested poorly*, and like all Best Show "threads" or "sketches" or "skits", Tom cut the fat.  He decided to listen to increasing listener demand for drug references and began to develop his growing cast of "junky" callers. Thus the emergence of "Fred" and that guy that says "man" a lot.

The guy that says "man" a lot is "Pete." And he called several times during the marathon asking for me (I declined). Of course, he didn't pledge. In retrospect, I probably should have taken his call. Maybe I could have talked a few bucks out of him for the station. Well, I'm sure I'll get another chance the next time he calls.
See God, Kai

For the record, it's Akiva Smirnoff.  I think Akira is some Japanese-style animation thingy.

Yes, I had meant to type "Akiva"; instead, my fingers betrayed me.  I do apologize most profusely for the typo, not my first and certainly not my last. 

That said, you've got to admire the timing of this, given the kerfuffle raised by my correction in the weather post.

Everytime I fucking write something clever I fucking fuck it up by spelling some fucking character's name wrong or some shit.  Fuck.

Whatever happened to the Russian mobster that Paulie Walnuts let get away a couple of seasons ago?

I submitted my song as soon as I got Jason's e-mail a few days ago, so it should be still going.

The FWD's carried the day. Gore got kinda big, but I don't know why people make fun of him for it, and he won an oscar, sortof.
