...yep, gonna brave the elements, arrive 6 hours early, stand in line to clear security for 90 minutes, suffer through hours sitting in the 105 degree heat listening to Alice Cooper and any number of other old, tired, worn out bands, to listen to the Messiah, the Chosen One, the American Idol winner, speak for 12 whole minutes at the ASU commencement ceremonies.
I hope his fucking teleprompter breaks.
Um.....uh.....uh.....um.......we......we....uh....we....um.......

Simple solution: bring some earbuds and a recording of Uncle Ronnie's "Tear down that wall" speech.

I've got to worry about avoiding heat stroke before I worry about what I'll actually be listening to. I'm sure I won't be able to hear him anyway, what with the sound of 65,000 people sucking him off in unison.

Fess up, you are going in hopes of getting an autograph, or perhaps shake his hand, or better yet, fellatiate him.

Reminds me of the time years ago when Cleveland's Mayor Ralph Perk (the guy who set his hair on fire) passed up a state dinner at the Nixon White House because it was his wife's bowling night!

Just hope he doesn't perform "No More Mr. Nice Guy" with the young impressionable AZ in the audience.

I'm about as far away from his as one could be and still be in the same zip code. Apparently they've read my stuff here and are taking the necessary precautions....
