Day 6 Pep-Card

Weird fact: Before Jerry Springer launched his brawling freak show on daytime TV, he was a serious progressive politician and highly respected mayor of Cincinnati. In his heyday, many Ohioans even saw him as a likely candidate for the U.S. presidency. As you begin worrying that you might be pushing the bounds of believability for some of your characters, remember Jerry and the countless other real-life stories you've heard that make the wildest fiction pale by comparison.

Don't be afraid to leverage the power of unlikely coincidences and unbelievable occurrences. Nothing could be more true to life.

Inspiring, yet truly disturbing at the same time. *weirds*

And then he bounced a check made out to a hooker and everything went downhill from there.

he wrote a check on the CITY'S money for the hooker, which makes it even more delicious.

And it kind of explains why he went on to host the kind of show he did.

Heee!

Thank you!

he's an extremely intelligent man, so it's really surprising how stupid he's behaved in his past.

Intelligent minds do not contradict a person's ability to be stupid. A lot of really smart people can be incredibly dumb.

oh, i'm not denying that. i just listen to him talk and he's so reasoned and thoughtful and i'm like YOU WROTE A CHECK ON THE CITY FOR A HOOKER.

Sometimes people just make you want to strangle them. They just do.
