    Holy Tebow, I'm scarred now... and a little confused. I mean, shouldn't they have yanked Yukon's teeth?

    Holy shit. What a bunch of assholes. I hit that button by accident at least twice a day. I'm going to unprogram it right now (if I can)

    I'm with Verizon because it doesn't drop calls, and because I get 20 percent off through work.

    But I also have an all-inclusive data program, so those charges don't hit me. That sucks, though, just reading about it.

    At first, I thought it was sacrilege, too. But then I thought about how Snoopy -- a Halloween and Christmas staple -- has been flying over stadiums on Met Life blimps for years and, well, that thought went away. Linus might never sell his soul to make a quick buck, but I figure everyone else is fair game.

    Snoopy was so cool he could get away with it.

    Yeah, but still, a blimp? The spirit of the Great Pumpkin and the best Christmas special ever on a blimp? Even Linus sold out and appeared in some ads! But then, I suppose we could have seen that coming ...

    Snoopy always seemed above the mawkish direction some of the other Peanuts characters took. I mean, he was Joe Cool, fuck all that sentimentality.

    If he wasn't busy doing some sort of cheeba-influenced crazy dance during the Peanuts' Christmas, my guess is his other option would have been to give Linus a hearty, "Bleeeahhh!"



    So a blimp? Yeah. Snoopy struck me as being down with that. Ice Cube had his lights on the Goodyear blimp. Big deal. Snoopy got his own blimp, pimp.
