The Mead Composition Notebook

Okay, uh, look, if you want to just keep on doing the same old thing, then maybe this idea is not for you. I, for one, am not going to compromise my artistic integrity. And I'll tell you something else, this is the show and we're not going to change it. Right?

Remember in 1992, when everybody suddenly cared about figure skating? Thank god that’s over.

Of course, people were more interested in the Nancy Kerrigan/Tonya Harding scandal and less interested in athletic skill and worldly competition. But this is America folks, so deal with it - now get me another milkshake!

What could have maintained the public’s interest in figure skating? If they let Frankenstein enter figure skating competitions!

The rigor mortis in his legs would prevent his kness from wobbling - maintaining a graceful stance on the ice (not to mention - a perfect ten from the judges). Also, there’s no way he would be hurt from an ambush to the kneecap. Nice try, Jeff Gillooly!

While we’re at it, we should replace all figure skaters with monsters! That’s so much more interesting than what they’ve got now. Who wants to watch an event with a bunch of prissy figure skaters?  I enjoy monsters slipping and slopping on the ice!

Now somebody find me a girlfriend!
