Harvey Korman, best known as the scheming Hedley Lamarr from Blazing Saddles, died today. He was 81. He was cool, very funny, and will be missed.

Oh, and he was also in the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special. But we’ll let that slide. He did just die and everything.

That’s right, it’s time again for new Fat Robot Radio. Episode 39 is piping hot and ready for serving, so get it while you can. Don’t get left with the crumbs. You don’t want to see everyone else eating Fat Robot Radio, and not you, do you? The jealousy might just give you indigestion.

Yes, I know I took the Fat-Robot-Radio-As-Food metaphor too far. But still, its good episode, so enjoy.

Hey. Superdelegates. Declare. This has gotten way out of hand. Fix this. Hilliary has completely lost her mind, and clearly does not care how badly she damages the Democratic Party. I hate to be so dramatic, but damn, look at this that I found on The Huffington Post:

Clinton Says She’s Willing To Take Fight To Convention

In an interview Wednesday with The Associated Press, Clinton said she is willing to take her fight to seat Florida’s and Michigan’s delegates to the convention if the two states want to go that far.

Asked whether she would support the states if they appeal an unfavorable rules committee decision to the convention floor, the former first lady replied:

“Yes I will. I will, because I feel very strongly about this.”

“I will consult with Floridians and the voters in Michigan because it’s really their voices that are being ignored and their votes that are being discounted, and I’ll support whatever the elected officials and the voters in those two states want to do.”

Taking her battle to the convention would fly in the face of an increasing number of party leaders who say the contest needs to be wrapped up shortly after the last primary on June 3 to prepare adequately for the fall election.

SEE!?!?! It is time to get the giant hook out and pull this flopping comedian off the stage. The audience is turning hostile.

That’s right. It’s real. As of 10:00PM CST, Barack Obama has won the majority of pledged delegates in the democratic race for President of the United States of America. So at this point, all that remains decided is the inevitable decision of the remaining Super Delegates. America has finished calculating only math that actually matters, and the matter is closed. Barack Obama is the winner. The only math that remains in question is the fantasy Clinton math, and really, that’s the problem with made up math. It always changes. Real math always stays the same. Only Hilliary Clinton can decide what those numbers mean, and so they are meaningless.

So I want to say Congratulations to Barack Obama. I can’t believe he actually pulled it off. He really is going to win the Democratic Nomination. The American voters, who have so consistently let me down, seem to be making what is in my opinion the right decision. As it turns out the America that I have always believed existed, actually proved to be out there.

At least that applies to The Democratic Party. The wisdom of the rest of the voting public remains to be seen. Onward to November.

Tonight, on 104.5 Urbana Free Radio Brad Bugos, and Benjamin Phillips of Fat Robot Radio will be quests on “The Show”. Tune your ass in. 10:00pm. If you miss it, then you are lame, unless you can’t catch it where you are, in which case you are not lame, merely living in the wrong town. So move to Champaign/Urbana by tonight at 10:00pm. Better start packing.

That’s it everybody. It’s over. Congratulations are in order for Barack Obama, the presumptive Democratic nominee for president. Don’t believe me? This is the next cover of Time Magazine:

Like that? I sure do.

Oh, and by the way, the small print says, “We’re pretty sure this time”. Damn right we are.

A new episode of Fat Robot Radio is up now over at fatrobotaradio.com. Exciting? You bet. Honestly, I think this last little run of shows has been our best yet. So don’t miss out. (Be warned though. There will be filthy talk, and if you are easily offended, maybe something else would be a better idea for you. I’m just saying.)

Never buy Biscuits in the tube again. Nobody needs to eat 12 biscuits in one sitting. Plus, they are super hard most of the time, and basically suck. From today on, settle for no less than frozen biscuits. You can make a few at a time, and they are about one hundred times tastier than those crappy tube biscuits. Just try it once, and see if I’m wrong.
