Barack & The Rock

Within my life I have probably watched way too much professional wrestling. The damaging effects of excessive viewing are evident to all who read this blog.

Nonetheless, I am struck by one thing during this Presidential Election season, Barack Obama's speeches remind me very much of the promos The Rock used to do before his big matches.

In fact, I keep waiting for Barack to end his speech by raising one eyebrow and announcing to the crowd: "If you smell ell ell ell, what Ba Rack is cooking."

Is it just me?

My students LOVE wrestling. The boys that is. I simply cannot understand the fascination, even less so more than other sports. Sorry.:(

You know wrestling is real, Janet. I like to call it Theatre for the low class like myself.
