RANDOM THOUGHTS: KING

Larry KingBoth ComCast and TimeWarner shareholders have now approved their companies' merger. The new slogan will be "We will assimilate you. Resistance is futile." ... You have to feel for my wife. She's the daughter of, spouse of and mother of an only child. ... I guess we won't be seeing that long awaited "Seventh Heaven Reunion" now. It's looking about as likely now as a "Bonanza" reunion. ... Put my cellphone through the washing machine recently. Can somebody tell me if it's warm wash/cold rinse or cold wash/cold rinse? Might have made a difference. I'm thinking this is what we're looking forward to as wearable devices become more prevalent.

RANDOM THOUGHTS: MILEY'S BATH

Miley CyrusMiley Cyrus, currently the queen of uninhibited performance, recently released selfies taken while she was in the bath and shower. Let’s hope this does not start a trend. Next thing, we’ll have pictures of politicians in the bath all over the place. Anthony Weiner, where are you?  Well, I suppose it beats watching her kissing a hammer and swinging on a wrecking ball.  Miley is also likely to win a contract for endorsing certain inflatable toys, given a recent appearance in Latin America.

RANDOM THOUGHTS: N.J.'S CHRIS CHRISTIE

Gov. Chris ChristieThe theater in my hometown, which plays less than first runs, is playing “How to Train Your Dragon 2”. Coming next is the far less successful and messier “How Not to Train Your Dragon”, a more disgusting affair. … The weight the New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has lost will be assembled and chosen as his vice presidential running mate in 2016. Well, there should be enough … It was so inspiring to see the Christmas decorations on sale in Lowe’s last week. It just put me in the holiday spirit. They could lengthen this and have festive banner proclaiming “Christmas Every Day”. (Apologies to Franz Kafka.)

RANDOM THOUGHTS: THE FIGHTING PALINS

Sarah PalinNoticed on TV a heavy focus on the Amish. We’ve had “The Amish Mafia”, “Escaping Amish” and “Amish Out of Order.” Coming soon Is “Amish the Next Generation.” “Ay, Captain Schwartz; set the horses for maximum power and head for the nearest herb store.”  …. There’s a similar fascination on reality TV with Alaska. So there is “Escaping Alaska”, “Alaska State Troopers”, and “Alaska, the Last Frontier.”

RANDOM THOUGHTS: JENNIFER LAWRENCE

Jennifer LawrenceMost people would say “You don’t know what you don’t know” I find in most cases it’s “You don’t know what you do know.” An important thought to ponder. … Someone pointed out a picture I posted on Facebook was the head of a frog. That was a relief. I had thought my search for the nude photos of actress Jennifer Lawrence had gone horribly wrong. By the way, with all the brouhaha (ha, ha, ha, ha) about the pictures of Lawrence, it would help the box office if actors in the next episode of "The Hunger Games" played their roles naked. It would certainly eliminate the unfair advantage of people carrying concealed weapons.

RANDOM THOUGHTS: MILEY'S BATHING SUIT

Miley CyrusUnited Airline’s slogan is still “Fly the Friendly Skies.” I think the friendly skies were when I could get a pillow, blanket and free meal on a flight. Given the size of the seats, the skies are more like a country in need of U.N. peacekeepers. …. In Britain, archaeologists this month announced a major find buried under the Stonehenge monument—Jimmy Hoffa’s body. … Glad to see Miley Cyrus back in the news wearing a fur bathing suit.  The photos of her in the cut-away, fuzzy blue outfit suggests the primary fur used was beaver.

RANDOM THOUGHTS: MARK HAMMILL

Mark Hammill, The main question about the upcoming “StarWars, Episode VII” is whether Mark Hammill, who plays Luke Skywalker, has learned to act over these years. But it turns out, there’s no worry. After hearing him deliver his lines, a reincarnated, Darth Vader declares, “Luke, I am not your father, no way” and falls on his light saber. There have also been petitions to ensure that Carrie Fisher does not done the skimpy outfit she wore while being chained to Jabba the Hutt, who also signed.  In a tragic turn of events, a writer who suggested bringing back the character of Jar Jar Binks, was beaten to death by angry movie executives.

RANDOM THOUGHTS: HARRISON FORD

Harrison FordIn the latest episode of the movie franchise, Harrison Ford, as the intrepid, but aging adventurer, stars in “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Prunes” in which Indy seeks the ancient secrets of regularity.  Indy has to let a culprit go as he comes up wheezing in his attempt to pursue the evil-doer.... An ill-advised, but lesser-known sequel, starred Toronto Mayor Rob Ford in "Indiana Jones: the Fat's in the Fire" in which the rotund politician dies after he's too wide to pass through the narrowing doorway of a pyramid.

RANDOM THOUGHTS: DARTH VADER

Darth VaderA news item said most Americans prefer Darth Vader for president over any known candidates in 2016.  Former VP Dick Cheney immediately said he was willing to be the Dark Lord’s VP, but Vader shuddered when informed of the news.  … Previously unknown dialogue from “The Skywalkers” an unsuccessful TV spinoff from the “Star Wars series”:  “Luke, I am your father.” “Ah gee, now I know why you never came to career day.” And in an unfortunate situation, Vader is barred from passing through airport security when he won’t take off his signature helmet. … The guy sitting next to me said, “I always enjoy good night’s sheep.”

RANDOM THOUGHTS: THE WORLD CUP

German World Cup PlayersThe end of this year's World Cup competition left many fans without emotional resources. Some were left staring at TVs and hiring someone to periodically yell “goooooooooal”. ... The score of the Germany-Brazil semi-final match caused a lot of confusion. When it reached 7-0, I was chatting with a friend on Facebook. “How’s the game?” he wrote. I responded,  “Pretty good; Germany is ahead by a touchdown.” I’m not really sure what the over/under was on the game …. And as the sports calendar progresses, we move from the World Cup, in which many countries around the world participate, to this fall’s World Series, in which athletes from  many of the United States play
