Just for you euoia. [http://www.salon.com/ent/tv/feature/2001/04/25/robinson/index.html](http://www.salon.com/ent/tv/feature/2001/04/25/robinson/index.html) "Here’s to you, Ms. Robinson I’m smitten with the host of “Weakest Link.” * * * By Danielle Arceneaux April 25, 2001 | The reviews of NBC’s game show “Weakest Link” have been mixed, but everyone agrees on one thing: The show’s British host, Anne Robinson, is a bitch. She’s a total bitch. And despite what the critics say – that she’s too mean, too British, too ruthless – I adore her. And judging by the show’s ratings so far, America is just as smitten with dear Ms. Robinson as I am." etc etc etc ---

I watch in quiet, contemplate How insults fly about The ease with which you dengrate The grace you do without Your endless questioning of IQ Your ever-present brass If a contestant met alone with you They’de surely kick your ass! ---

Anne Robinson may be British :o , but please don’t think she’s typical. Most of us have good manners in this country (and intelligence). Watch her stumble over questions she doesn’t understand. By contrast, Jeremy Paxman, a TV interviewer, is ruthless in questioning politicians (they deserve it!). He is also articulate and clever, winning an award for pressing one politician who was desperately trying to evade the point. ---

Here’s to you, Queen of Rudeness and Pith. For whom courtesy’s not common, it’s myth. From talent misdirected come insults perfected. What an awesomely brutal wordsmith. Dr. Laura’s got nothing on you, Petty tyrant of all whom you view. The commercials provide enough of a guide that your program I’ll always eschew. While I do not approve, I’ll accede that there’s something to learn here. Indeed! Folks accept denigration to reap reparation: All obstacles fall before greed. ---

[hijack]Nice limericking! The famed limiricist, **TN\*Hippie** , is back, so it seems rather fitting to respond with them. Please let me know if anyone starts a thread of limericks. I’m not on-line as often as I used to be.[/hijack] Now, back to your regularly scheduled Weakest Link thread. ---
