Did anyone else watch the first annual Spike TV Guys Choice Awards? Yeah, I know what you are thinking, “Donna what are you doing watching the first annual Spike TV Guys Choice Awards?” Look, I had been watching the great noir classic, The Big Combo. It ended and the next movie up was Suddenly, Last Summer. At this point, Rob walks in and he says, “What are we watching?”
“This fantabulous movie starring Katherine Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor and Monty Clift! Katherine Hepburn is trying to force Elizabeth Taylor to get a lobotomy! You see Liz spent the summer with her gay cousin who somehow got cannibalized by a bunch of island boys and….”
“Turn the channel, I can’t take any more of these weird gay movies that you love so much! I can’t do it, not today.”
There was no use in fighting, I could tell by his face he was very serious. And so I did what any good girlfriend would do- I let him hold the remote control. He clicked a couple times and settled rather quickly on Ultimate Fighting where muscly men without shirts wriggle on top of each other. We watched Randy Couture fight Tim Sylvia. At the end, Randy Couture got outfitted with a big sparkly gold belt. Ultimate Fighting ended and that’s when the first annual Spike TV Guys Choice Awards began. I rather enjoyed it. The best part (next to Lee Majors and his brass balls) was when PEE-WEE HERMAN appeared to present the Funniest M.F. award. The voice over said it’s his first appearance in 15 years! Now let me warn you, I AM A HUGE PEE WEE FAN! Even back when he was arrested for spanking his monkey, my love for him did not diminish. I used to tell people, “I’m pullin’ for Pee-wee!” At any rate, with that said, I wish Mr Reubens had not decided to bring Pee-wee back. Paul is 55 years old. Yes, his face is virtually unlined; however, his chest, neck and belly have grown larger. The suit fit him differently. Something felt wrong, very wrong. Pee-wee aged and it bothered me. I want Pee-wee to stay the same. I want him to forever stay that silly, skinny, weirdo riding his pimped out bicycle and showing kids things to do with their mom’s underwear.
