09.06.07 JOE PATERNO IS OLD
Despite my vigilant campaign for an aggressive euthanasia campaign, our society is still saddled with old people and homeless people and old homeless people. And today, in a New York Times profile, Joe Paterno and his wife go about flaunting their non-euthanized oldness all over the place:
Joe and Sue Paterno have not seen a movie in a theater since “Titanic” and watch so little television that they were delighted to stumble upon a show this spring that they had not seen before. “We discovered ‘M*A*S*H,’ ” Sue Paterno said, laughing. “I had heard about it, but I didn’t know what it was about.”
However, at the end of the article, Sue shares her disappointment at the loss of "M*A*S*H."
“They don’t show ‘M*A*S*H’ anymore,” Sue said. “But we haven’t seen ‘Cheers’ yet. Maybe we’ll find ‘Cheers’ soon.”
Y'know, when I see old people say, "Maybe we'll _____ ______ soon," the blanks aren't usually filled in with "find Cheers."

Say what you want, but Paterno has been drawing up new plays all summer. He's got this one going where a Danish Prince goes slowly insane that sounds promising.
Joe Pa was later heard to remark: "We had quitters in the revolution too. We called them 'Kentuckians.'"
They need to be isolated and studied so that it can be determined what nutrients they have that might be extracted for our personal use.
Go to bed Old man!
