bedsitter23Last week, George RR Martin announced he was leaving LiveJournal which effectively turned the lights out.
In the old days, i would post odd stories that i liked and people would read and comment on them. Now, I still use LJ, but it is now ironically, exactly what it is called, a journal, for me by me but only read by me.
In any case, Glenn Jacobs is probably going to be a Mayor. Jacobs won the Mayor of Knox County Republican primary. Despite the presence of Knoxville College, it is not expected that the Democrat candidate to win in this district.
Not surprisingly, Jacobs is a very active local politician who campaigned prominently for Ron Paul. Surprisingly, Jacobs day job is Kane from the WWE (and previously Issac Yankem DDS aka a Dentist named I Yankem Ho ho ho).

Which of course, blows my mind. We have been told for two decades that his family is his brother The Undertaker. Who the hell are these people?
Wrestling changed in the 80s as you might know, and Kane (and Taker) are the last of the Cartoon characters of the 80ss (like Hillbilly Jim, Brutus the Barber and JunkYard Dog) as wrestling transitioned to "real" people like Steve Austin and Bill Goldberg.
I suppose in the world of Donald Trump, nothing disqualifies you from being a politician, but Kane as a character from the notorious WWE attitude era has a resume that might make Stormy Daniels blush:
-Attempted to electrocute Shane McMahon
-Tried to set Jim Ross on fire
-Kidnapped Lita, impregnated her and then forcibly married her
-Assaulted Pete Rose three times
-Buried his brother alive
-Possibly burned his childhood home down with his family in it
I am undoubtedly leaving out plenty of attacks that were unprovoked, but I just want to get to the Katie Vick thing. Katie Vick is always on the short list of the worst wrestling angles ever. It was the nadir of WWE Attitude, prior to Linda McMahon's political career, and Vince was trying to get away with as much Howard Stern-style shock that he could get passed the Network.
You can obviously google it, but the punchline is necrophilia.
So, that Russian election meddling doesn't seem like a big deal now, does it?
Jacobs won by 23 votes (17 before a recount).
