Open the pic in another window and zoom in. Notice how phallic the curtain opening is on Criss Angel&#039;s billboard?

Cindy-

&quot;I wish Criss never dated this girl&quot;

Well, at least I agree with you on that... No wait, maybe not. If it weren&#039;t for Holly coming to Vegas for him, maybe she wouldn&#039;t be in &quot;Peepshow&quot; today? Otherwise, I don&#039;t understand why she&#039;d date that not-funny, not-entertaining jerk.</description>

		<description>You take Holly Madison fake boobs away and her chocolate mold vagina and you know what you get?????????

NOTHING!!!!

Holly has no talent.

I saw this bimbo make fun of Criss Angel on Chelesa Lately.  I thought she wanted to marry him after dating him for 6 minutes.

I wish Criss never dated this girl she did more harm to him then good.</description>

		<description>Richard, 

Have you seen the show again? I think back in November or December you wrote you were thinking about re-reviewing it, but Cirque had asked or strongly suggested that you don&#039;t until they were finished with their &quot;fixation&quot;</description>

		<description>By the way, I totally don&#039;t care who Criss Angel dates with the exception of when he brings his girlfriend on Larry King because she is smarter and more articulate than him. 

Everyone is entitled to a private life. In Vegas that is almost a local custom and one I honor. Of course, public figures get less privacy in our media, but that is not the sort of reporting that has ever interested me. I care about the quality of the entertainment and not who the person on stage dates when offstage. 

I guess, what I am saying is that unless he sticks a person in front of the press again and proclaims his relationship, I am never going to write about who Criss Angel dates even if I know.  Yrs., Richard</description>

		<description>CORRECT!

I just watched a documentary about the Weather Underground.  The actual name of the group was based on the lyrics from that song.  They called themselves the Weathermen.  And this organization was an off-shoot of the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS).  In 1969 or so, in Chicago, the radical element basically took over SDS in a meeting and basically wanted to go for change, resorting to violent change, throwing out the protesters and changing their name.  It wasn&#039;t until later in the 1970s they were referred to as the Weather Underground (mostly by the press), because they had to hide because of planting bombs in buildings all over the U.S. (mostly unoccupied buildings).  And they graduated from anti-Vietnam War (because it ended) and they turned anti-everything government, aligning themselves with other violent causes like the Black Panther Party.

I knew I couldn&#039;t stump an avid Bob Dylan follower.  Later, I&#039;ll find something harder....</description>

		<description>I am going to do this off the top of my head and so if this is a trick question you got me. But the obvious answer would be Weather Underground who named the group after Dylan&#039;s &quot;Subterranean Homesick Blues&quot; from the lyric  &quot;You don&#039;t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.&quot;</description>

		<description>That is a hilarious observation.  I never really looked at it like that.  And now, to tell the truth, I cannot look at another Criss Angel BeLIEve poster/billboard/advertisement ever again.  And if I do, it will be with abject horror.  Sort of like looking at really, really bad and disgusting porn.

This is off topic, but I wanted to ask you a question, Richard.  And it&#039;s a trivia question regarding your favorite entertainer, Bob Dylan.  I figure it might be fun for you too.  Perhaps this will stump you, but I have a feeling it won&#039;t.

Okay, here goes....

Back in 1969-1970, a violent organization was created in the U.S.  Nowadays, they would probably be called home grown terrorists.  And this organization was originally focused as a protest against the Vietnam War, but it off-shooted into other protests.  And it received much play in the press at that time.  This organization was considered to have fizzled out around the late 1970s, even perhaps up to 1980.  The name of the group was created by a lyric in a Bob Dylan song.

What was the name of the organization and what was the exact lyric the name was derived from?

(Theme from Jeopardy plays in the background....)</description>
