A lyrical poet...just in case you didn't know it.

I flipped my television on last night and what do I see?  Crazy Jesse Ventura staring back at me...
Am I a poetic genius?  No, and neither is that fucking idiot!
As Nutty McFly kept ranting on about his utopian lifestyle off the beaten path in Mexico I couldn't help wondering why Larry King would even bother to have this fool on his show anymore.  Jesse then mentioned several times that he wanted to share some poetry.  I immediately got excited. Please Larry, let him share some more of his talent! Instead he insisted on taking a commercial break with the promise that when the show returned he would give Ventura time to break it down for us.  I waited, somewhat impatiently.  
Larry put him off AGAIN with a breaking news update about the stupid girl who is holding the Miss California title.  I have no idea what her name is, but I do know that her boobs were paid for and she doesn't want to legalize gay marriage....let's move on to Ventura's poetry corner!  Who cares about the Miss USA pageant?  
FINALLY Larry did a special little intro for Jesse and this is what came out of his mouth.

"On the night that Jesus Christ supposedly rose from the dead; the Navy Seals shot three pirates straight through the head."  

What happened next?  Dead air.  Crickets chirping.  It was brilliant.  For a good 2 seconds Larry King didn't know how to respond.  

That, my friends is what an unfinished education from North Hennepin Community College and years in the WWF will lead to...terrible poetry and dead air.
