Yeah, me, too. But now I can't get this image out of my head, of the
announcer, well, announcing, Jesus "SuperFly" ben Miriam The Christ. You
can imagine the outcry when it is demonstrated that the blood is real,
but the thorns aren't. Legions (if you'll pardon the use of the term) of
fans revolt when they realize they've given themselves stigmata for
nothing. Tens of thousands pull their "Good Calvin" stickers off their
pickups and switch back to "Bad Calvin" urinating on a
(chevy|ford|toyota) logo. And in the midst of the worst of the despair
and self-doubt, the triumphant return of a now-recidivist Hulk Hogan.
