We Made It
By Kevin L. Harris

In the first 4 years of the 1990’s, hundreds of young people graduated from Roosevelt High School in Fresno, CA. These kids were labeled “Generation X” . But not all of us smelled like teen spirit. Some of us smelled like 87 octane and hot wax. Some of us smelled like 4 years of college with no marketable major. Some of us smelled like a few years of making pizzas, followed by a 2 year commitment to the Church, or a 2 year stint as one of Americas Finest.

Some of us tried to live up to that Seattle, grunge rock image. Some if us gave our lives like Kurt Cobain. Some of us rode the Dot Com market to the very high rises that only 60 year old CEO’s occupied. Some of us never went to college. Some of us got their degree in marketing. Some of us got pregnant.

Some of us got famous. Some of us, got addicted.

I got a wife and 2 kids. On a day in September 10 years after, we all got real scared.

Now, We’re staring down the barrel of 30 years, and wonder what we have to show for it.

A record contract, a criminal record.

A play published by Samuel French, A letter published in the Op Ed Section of the Fresno Bee.

A few hundred shares of a Fortune 500 company, a few hundred stock options for a bankrupt ISP.

A Disney World Vacation, A 15 Day notice.

Not everyone lived the dream, Some of us died by the sword.

Some us wrote our own name on a bullet, and served it for breakfast.

Some of us cried at the funeral.

I go to work every day, just to keep the fire burning. I raise my glass to my friends of the Gen X years, and say to you all, Fuck you.

We made it.

The Rules for Cable TV in My House
As Authored by John English

1. We have cable in order to obtain and view WWF programming. This, and
only this, is essential.

2. You may enjoy the DIY network, only when WWF programming is not
available. We do not have cable for DIY, we have it for WWF. DIY is
not essential.

3. I make more money, I pay the bills, thus I decide what channels
are/are not essential. Should I choose to have a lineup of TNN and
nothing else, I shall choose to do so, as TNN contains WWF and WWF is
essential. All else is not.

4. Your wishes are not my command. I shall choose what is essential
viewing for our family, as I am the one who has the penis growing from
between my legs.

5. Should DIY begin airing WWF programming at any time, then it will be
considered essential viewing, but only for that portion of the program
day which contains WWF programming.

6. Unless the History Channel begins showing "The HISTORY of the WWF
Championship" or "Starrcade: A HISTORY" then it is not historical to me
and thus is not essential.

7. Say your prayers, eat your vitamins, believe in yourself, and
believe in Hulkamania.

Theres no Firstworld (To the Tune of John Lennons Imagine)

Imagine there's no Firstworld
It's easy if you try
No Verado to screw us
No customers to cry,
Imagine all the phone calls,
Going to Earthlink..

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll leave us
And the FirstWorld will be Done

Why is the world so damn cynical anymore?

2001-08-20T09:13:00.000-07:00

This is my review of the WWF House Show at Selland Arena on 8/18/01, As posted on the pwtorch.com website.

Got back from the House show a little while ago, and haven't looked at the site yet to see if you have a review. Didn't want to have my opinions spoiled.

Match 1 - Rob Van Dam V. Jeff Hardy

Hardy wrestled with that damn hat on. RVD impressed me with his ability to play the cocky heel. I have been used to him playing the cocky good guy, but as a heel he is much more interesting. Hardy goes over with a small package ( Inside cradle if you wanna be picky.)

Match 2 - Ivory and Hurricane Helms V. Lita and Matt Hardy

Guess the Hardys want to get to San Jose a little early tonight. Nothing much here, except the 69 spot with Ivory and Helms. Helms and Ivory looked like a High School Senior and his Mom. (But I like Ivory, so don't take that as a slam on her, I was intended as a slam on Mr.. Green Lantern.) Matt and Lita win with twin Twists of Fate.

Match 3 - William Regal V. Justin Credible

Neither man seemed to get much reaction. (Except for me screaming my head off for Regal, there wasn't much heat on him) Short Match, Regal with his European Neckbreaker.

Match 4 - Chris Jericho V. Rhyno

Jericho has a lame ass set of Pyro in the ring, and wins with the Walls of Jericho.

Match 5 - Steve Austin V. Kurt Angle

That'll teach people to be late to the house show. World Title Match before Intermission. Austin stalls like the first 15 min of a Larry Zbyszko match. Finally has a seemingly clipped match where he pins Angle after a reverse cradle with the tights in hand. Hebner comes in and helps Angle beat on Nick Patrick.

Intermission

Match 6 - Kanyon V. Christian

NO reaction for Christian, and very little for Kanyon. Kanyon wins but I don't remember how, it was that impressive.

Match 7 - X-Pac V. Tajiri

X Pac wins after a GREAT match, with every conceivable near fall you have ever seen being done. No mist, but X Pac wins with the Bronco Buster.

Match 8 - Lance Storm V. Edge

Edge got a little more reaction than Christian for interrupting the mike work from Storm. Storm wins when Christian does a botched run in. They tease Edge going heel when he won't hug Christian back after the match.

Main Event - 14 Man Tag Team Match - Big Show, Billy Gunn, Spike Dudley Con Molly Holly, Crash and Hardcore Holly, and Scotty 2 Hotty V. Tommy Dreamer, Hugh Morrus, Mike Awesome, Sean Stasiak, Test, and Palumbo and O'Haire.

THIS MATCH WAS BETTER THAN IT EVER HAD ANY RIGHT TO BE.

I do not know who booked this thing, but it may have been the most fun I have had watching a live match in 15 years. Scotty did his bounce on the ropes thing while waiting on a tag, and Billy Gunn kept getting annoyed with him for it. It was COMEDY. They exchanged some offence and quick tagged pretty much everybody in, and then they made a hot tag to The Big Show who went on a rampage. They then went into a VERY HOT sequence where everyone either hit or Near hit their finisher, ending with the chokeslam on Tommy Dreamer for the pin. Billy Gunn did not stick around to celebrate, and I did not read it as an angle. I think he's just an asshole.

Most Heat:

Face
1 Kurt BY GOD Angle.
2. The Hardy Boyz
3. Big Show (And Give him credit, he Brought the Show to a GREAT finish with his performance in the Main Event. This comes from someone who generally agrees with you that he usually stinks up the card, but Tonight he earned his keep.)
4. Chris Jericho

Heel
1. Steve Austin
2. RVD
3. X-Pac
4. Nick Patrick (and could that be any sadder?)

Also wanted to mention that I had a chance to see the guys come in. Billy Gunn and Bob Holly got out of their car and wouldn't even look at us when we called to them from 10 Feet away. Acted like we are peons.

Teddy Long got out of the car, and while he appeared to be in a hurry, was more than gracious when my friend and I asked for a Picture with him, and really made the night special for two Jaded ass old marks.

I think it really hit home that there are some guys who want to be there, and some who think that they deserve to be there. All Billy or Bob had to do, is throw their hand up in the air, and the may have made 10-20 more fans, who might have cared when they came to the ring, and who may have actually gave a shit about them in the future.

Too bad for them.

Anyway, Had a great time at an Unusually booked House Show.

Yes...I remember Madame..So what? And so I spend my time makeing pictures of her with different celebritys, So what? Does that make me Gay? I don't think so. Dammit, I'm a MAN!! I can make pictures with all sorts of Gay Icons...David Bowie, Richard Simmons, Maryiln Monroe, Leaping Lanny Poffo. Just because I like to listen to Elton John, does that make me gay? NO. It's not like I'm a Hardy or anything.

For $100 you get ten wrestling lessons and are guaranteed a spot on at least one show for SECW.

Hey...Check out the celebrity caller who called into The Dave Metzler Wrestling Observer Live Show and puts Roland Alexander on the spot on why they don't show up in Fresno at all anymore. He even has the nerve to make fun of Alan Autry, the great mayor of Fresno...Who was that masked man. IT SURE THE FUCK WASN'T BOB GOTT DRESSED UP AS ZORRO!!!!!

2001-05-04T08:30:00.000-07:00

Sorry about the dups of the last post.

Just got a nice note in the guest book from Adam Armstrongs mom, Elaine. NIce to hear from you! Hope things are well for you.

Now I ask the rest of you, Would YOUR Mother refer to you as your RPG Characters name? Mine dosent even know any of my characters names, Much less "The Walking Rebel Flag, The Superstar of the AWA, and The American Original, Wildcat Kevin Harris."

Hell, I'd be happy if my mom listened to 1 story about the Reverend R.B. Bass.

THANK YOU FRIENDS!!!!

Just found out that Dana and Josh are Live Wrestling Virgins. So basically that means that they still think that its cool to do the sign thing. Yeah, real cool, untill you can't see a single damn match becaust the guy with the "ANDRE THE GIANT HAS A POSSE" Sign won't sit down, and his buddy with the "ROCKY ATE MY BALLS" sign is desperate to get it on camera.

Yeah, thats cool.

Dana also swears that he will spit on Stone Cold Steve Austin.

You get the feeling that the song "Ten Feet Tall and Bulletproof" Applies to him? I know I do.

Back Again..

Just wanted to post the funniest thing that I have read this week.

From the WWF.COM interview with Mark Henry, AKA Sexual Chocolate...

One time in Louisville, Henry exchanged some dialogue with a few fans like a character would "cut a promo" on television. "You just call me Colonel Sanders," he said, "because I got a two-piece for you!" He then held up his fists and said, "Ain't no fries, ain't no biscuits." According to Henry, the people came unglued - and it was something off the top of his head.

Rest of the Interview HERE...

Hey Folks!!

Big Ups to Jeffro for the Blogger help.

Anyway, I'll try and not blither too much on this.

Peace in the middle east!
