Hell, I welcome the changes, as long as they keep most of my stories in tact....

Despicable, and Im not just talking about his accent that totally sounds fake....

I get involved in that with him as his therapist. Archie is for Henry, who has no dad sort of a surrogate father figure. So we sort of go on these parallel journeys.

If you hit links we provide, we may receive compensation. Fair enough, dude. Viewers who tune in tonight will see aSimpsonsrerun instead. Now, I first learned of this little controversy fromaRolling Stonewriteupthat misleadingly called it a First Amendment Battle. It is most certainly nothing of the kind.

For example: What will become of the cash-strapped Pawnee government? How will Tom react to Wendy and Rons rekindling? Will April put up the good fight for Andy? And exactly what would a bacon-covered turkey leg (aka: the Swanson) taste like?...

First, the show was a parade of much-beloved faces. fromFreaks and Geeks(whose real name is Martin Starr, by the way). Its an impressive collection of comedic talent, to be sure. addCredit(Colleen E.
