AUTHOR: Dave Sypniewski DATE: Wednesday, April 05, 2006 ----- BODY: Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice caused a poor S.O.B. his job at radio station KTRS in St. Louis...Yeah, I know this happened a few weeks ago , but it's still newsworthy. Now, having worked in radio and also being a person who visits the St. Louis area frequently, I must say that the call letters "KTRS" don't exactly "jump out" at me. Neither did the name of the talk show host that got the boot (name not even worth mentioning here). I guess it doesn't matter if you're Opie and Anthony or this guy. When it comes to getting fired, there's no predjudice! This DJ and his wacky "Morning Zoo" got on the subject of Connie Rice one day and made a slip of the tongue while suggesting that Rice take over as NFL Commissioner. "They should look into getting Connie Rice" he said. "Connie Rice would be a big coup. A really big coup!" He then says, "I know how that sounds and I apologize. I'm really sorry...so sorry. Again, I sincerely apologize!". For what? Within a matter of minutes the station's phone was ringing off the hook from angry listeners wanting to know why the DJ just called poor Connie a "coon". Twenty minutes after the first call, the station's General Manager was on the air apologizing for what his "former employee" had just said. When asked if she heard about this incident, Connie Rice said "yes" and just shrugged her shoulders at the whole thing. As for the DJ, I believe he's spinning "Carpenters" records at an AM station down in Paducah, Kentucky. It's going to be a long climb up the ladder for this guy to get near St. Louis again! Tom Hanks, The Da Vinci Code, and...Me??? With the upcoming release of the Tom Hanks flick, The Da Vinci Code (to make it easy, I'll refer to it as "DC"), there is a renewed interest in DC books, television specials, DVDs and conspiracy theories. After catching a three part series on The History Channel late last year, I'm more confused about the DC now more than ever! There's supposedly all kinds of secrets in the background of Da Vinci's "The Last Supper" that many suggest are clues to the whereabouts of "The Holy Grail". Indiana Jones looked for this in his first movie and we all know what happened there! It's been said that "The Holy Grail" is supposed to be the jeweled cup that Christ drank from before his crucifixion. What the DC says, is that The Grail could be anything...or nothing. This is where Theologians are in a tizzy. One theory suggests that Jesus was secretly married to Mary Magdeline and even had a daughter. "The Grail" they say, can actually be Mary or His daughter. If that is so, the bloodline of Christ may still be around today! It may be that cup, The Ten Commandments, a church, or even a piece of paper with prophecies including when He will return to get the believers. Others say, there may not even be a "Holy Grail" at all. It may have been simply a figure of speech. This is one debate that could go on forever! Maybe Jesus is having a good laugh over all these theories of something that may not even exist. The "secret" itself is supposed to be within the painting of "The Last Supper". Even if you're not a fan of Da Vinci's work, if his masterpieces were books, they'd be flying off the shelf. "The Last Supper" and the "Mona Lisa" have stirred up all sorts of things in people. Well, much to my surprise, after examining "The Last Supper" personally, imagine how shocked I was that in the original, untouched painting actually has what appears to be ME in the background. What does this mean? For Da Vinci to include my image years and years before I walked this earth is perhaps the biggest mystery of them all! You be the judge.
