The Who is going to tour, although whether its fiftieth anniversary tour will be its last is subject to different info coming from members Roger Daltrey and Peter Townshend. The last will surely be the nursing home show. Of course, their song, "My Generation" now has a new meaning. Another hit will be updated as "The Bedpan Wizard". The Rolling Stones will join their English colleagues and fine tune their landmark hit to say "I can't get no satisfaction, nor much of anything else anymore, without my meds."

I plan to download that new recording of James Taylor singing the National Anthem: "Oh beautiful for, wait a minute, Oh say can you see by the dawn's early, delivery truck, oh no, light." In a duet, Carole King will respond, "When you're down and out and you need a helping hand." ,,, TV movie channels are showing classic horror films in the build up to Halloween. In real life, many of the terrifying situations would be easily solved. For "Scarecrow", I'm thinking a couple of shots of Roundup would do the trick and in "Children of the Corn" some doses of Ritalin would have quickly defused tense situations.
In a remake of "Halloween", actress Jamie Lee Curtis, in a reprise of her breakout role, takes care of her horrific stalker by giving him some Activia which makes him more regular and puts him in a better mood. ... I've got to stop shopping at both Walmart and K-mart. My Martha Stewart drapes and bedding from K-Mart attacked my Duck Dynasty gear from Walmart and ejected it from the house. ... I'm a bit suspicious of the healthcare website. It asked me "Does it hurt when you do this?" I answered "Yes" and it replied "then don't do this." ... Democrats have set up a haunted house in D.C. One of the scariest exhibits is a character dressed as Vice President Joe Biden running for president. Then there's the healthcare website ride. The lines are long because they keep having to stop and restart it.

There's a news item giving Ben Stein's four lessons from the government shut down. They are "Your started it", "No, you did", "Did not", "Do so." ... Stein is probably not going to get invited to the annual Tea Party Guru Appreciation Dinner. He says taxes are too low to support the services we already have. But he has recommended that the next time this happens both sides get sent to their rooms without supper.

The xero and five Giants football team has been officially declared a disaster area. New Yorkers are demanding the team, which has played in the Meadowlands in New jersey for decades, be named the Jersey Giants. There have been alternate suggestions that authorities mount another search for the body of former teamster leader, Jimmy Hoffa, in the playing field and bury the team while the ground is open.

Michael Douglas and wife, Katherine Zeta Jones, who appeared headed for divorce, have apparently decided to salvage their marriage. I guess she had second thoughts after he scolded her and gave her a tongue lashing. Or something like that. ... I had this vision that after Douglas revealed the origin of his throat cancer that a movie was made about his life. But instead of recovering, the character in the movie dies.

Microsoft founder and chairman Bill Gates this week revealed the famous, and despised, keyboard combo - control, alt, delete - was a mistake. Apparently, some developers were playing twister after hours and it was mistakenly coded into the software. We assume he is working on a statement about the Surface tablet. ... Movie star Amanda Bynes hopes to quickly resolve a case in which she was accused of throwing a bong out of a New York window.

Is it just me or do other people think that Miley Cyrus' hairdo at the VMA Music awards looks like that of John Candy's character "Barf" in the movie "Spaceballs"? ... Papa Cyrus defended his daughter recently. Miley returned the favor telling a news service that "No matter what people say, he actually is a musician." ... There's a new sci-fi movie brewing "Escape from the Planet of the Kardashians. "
It's about a planet ruled by beautiful women who have no obvious talents which leaves the population in a desperate search for intelligent life. ...

A news report says that TV star Vicki Lawrence's character "Mama" would give Miley Cyrus a spanking for her performance on the MTV VMA Awards. I know a lot of guys who watched her the show were thinking that exact thing. ... ABC News.com had an interesting choice in discussing a new fashion trend and how to look good in it. The headline was "Pulling off the Peek-A Boo Bra." Well yeah, that's the whole point, isn't it?

Watched the new vision of the Headless Horseman of Sleepy Hollow during the plane flight (minus the sound). Called "Sleepy Hollow", it features a Rambo-like monster who appears as adept with automatic weapons as with swords. I still can't figure out why in the initial confrontation a policeman didn't just shoot his horse?

News items always interest me when they have unnecessary words. There was a report of someone shot by a disgruntled employee. I suppose that's as opposed to being shot by a content employee. ... At a recent trip through Chicago's O'Hare airport I noted the normal background noise – the sound of whips being used on those who tried to take liquids through security and the cries of the damned in coach.
