Ted Williams (if that's really his name) was Madcow's guest on the first segment last night. It was devoted to a very selective reading of the Constitution, emphasizing the stuff about the Indians, the 3/5 clause and prohibition. The so-called "Golden Voice" guy did narration (speaking with a lisp and bungling some words) during this portion of her program. It was also announced that he'll be the voice of MSNBC's "Lean Forward" promotional campaign.
His 15 minutes are now clocked at 14:59:59.99.
BTW...do you think the Aggies have a chance against them Tigguz tonight in the Cotton Bowl?
He spent at least 15 years as a hardcore crackhead.
He now suddenly has fame and is being offered lots of money and will be the toast of the town for the next few months.
But he has no one to keep him tethered to reality (his mother is 90, infirm, and, in their filmed reunion, very standoffish as long-suffering mothers of addicts tend to be).
In a year's time he will be making money but the heady rush of fame will be gone. He will be looking for another heady rush, most likely.
I think tonight's Cotton Bowl should be a great game. The Aggies aren't too shabby this year, so we'll see.
