What's the Internet ?
Larry King has had a wildly successful career. He had a radio show in Florida for a long time and his show on CNN has brought him riches beyond his wildest dreams.
But I've always wondered what the fascination is with him. Charlie Rose is a far better interviewer and far more knowledgable.
I would watch 10 Barabra Walters sit down interviews before I would watch one Larry King interview.
I just think those two people do a better job.
Now here's the topper.
Larry King has never used the internet. He admitted it during an interview with Rosanne Barr. Barr was actually the guest and it was King who was answering the internet question.

The internet has become part of the fabric of America. It's like the telephone. I understand people who don't understand something. It's really intimidating at first. But it's the internet. It's not like learning how to play the trombone.
My mom and dad are apprehensive about the internet. That's fine. But Larry King has to do reaearch when he interviews people doesn't he ?
Anyways... not a sports subject.
Just thought I would exercise my fingers.

Well, Ron, in five minutes, there was time for blazer pre game trivia, your opinion, so well considered about OSU coach deserving sainthood if they beat Oregon, and a third place finish, and some random notes I can't remember and not one word about UP women who have been (along with the OSU Baseball team) the only real world class good news in Oregon sports.

I can't believe the Jailblazers preempt Friday Night Lights! I know that it's a fictional program but really, who wants to watch the Blazers? At least give us a choice, or put the Blazers on later! We've been trapped inside because of the weather...please don't torchure us any further!!!!!!!
