Forgive Him Father... He is a Robot From The Future

Somehow Mad TV finds a way to bring Christianity and the Terminator mythos together:



Christian Bale stars in Terminator Salvation in 2009. The trailer looks promising, at least to these jaded eyes.

Incidentally, one of the founding castmembers of Mad TV, Artie Lange, has just had his autobiography published. My brother Joe gave it to me as a gift for Christmas. I tore through it in two days flat.

Well worth a read, Too Fat to Fish is the funny, poignant, occasionally harrowing tale of a talented comedian from New Jersey who was also a compulsive gambler, cokehead, drunk, and heroine addict, and a guy who could have thrown it all away and ended up as a second-rate Chris Farley clone, but somehow survived the nineties to become an obese and messed-up funny guy on Howard Stern's show.

Definitely worth a read!
