Ding, Dong, the son of a bitch is (almost) gone.

I'm surprised many of you haven't mentioned it, but Jack "Tool" Valenti has announced his retirement from the MPAA. Surely someone can send him a bootleg DVD as a retirement gift?

Of course, it's obviously thirty years too late, but hey, at least he's outta there.

He'll be replaced with another tool. SSDD.

[yendi]

Probably, but hopefully a less effective one.

OMFG.

no, we should ALL send him bootlegged DVDs or DivXes. LOTS AND LOTS of them.

millions.

hahahahhahaha.

Oh, like he doesn't already have a nice collection of things like the pirated Star Wars DVD. It's like Falwell visiting a hooker -- he just doens't want anyone else to it. :-)

Devil you know for the devil you don't?

Especially if anyone associated with the current "oh my god it was a quarter second nipple flash!" crew gets into the post...

I honestly can't envision someone worse, combining Valenti's morality crusade and his über-protectionist business sense. Which isn't to say that things would get better, but I think they're at the nadir.

Famous last words. ;)

I never thought there'd be someone worse than Clinton running for President, but there's Kerry in all his glory.

[yendi]

Heh. Naturally, we tend to disagree on this one (other than Kerry being worse than Clinton).

[amokk]

Natürlich. :)

I hadn't heard; thanks for the info. Well, if naught else... it'll be different.

Ding Dong, the Dick is Gone.

Only 25 years too late.

Pardon me while I breathe a hyperdramatic sigh of relief...

This news to me is like the news of the arrest of the Boston Strangler's to young women at night.
