Kevin Smith is a fatso, can't fly, signed Southwest Airlines. -- (link) - Qale Feb 14, 08:03 10

    - I think you could develop a pretty funny half hour comedy around wrestling too. -- nm - Beaker Feb 14, 08:02 1
      - assume they can get the rights to all the movies that have featured wrestlers in one form or another too -- nm - Beaker Feb 14, 08:04
