All in the Family featured the curmudgeonly Archie Bunker. Archie was television’s most famous grouch, blunt, blustering, straightforward and untouched by the PC crowd. He was the archetype of the conservative male. Michael desprately tried to reeducate him, but he persisted in his breviloquence.



Looking back at the last 40 years, we realize: ARCHIE WAS RIGHT!

For My Next Trick

I think hypnotism is cool.  I've had it done to myself, although I can't say I found it particularly effective.  I think it would be fun to watch Derren Brown work.
The television illusionist Derren Brown is courting controversy again by planning his most audacious trick yet – persuading a straight man he is gay. The hypnotist also believes he could make a gay man be attracted to women.
 
I'm not sure how he would "prove" it either way.  If he got the hypnotized person to preform a sex act, I guess you could say he made his case.  If the person wasn't a plant from the audience, I think Mr. Brown would find himself in a lawsuit. 

Of course if hypnotherapy was proven to be an effect long term tool in realigning a homosexual to heterosexual interests and behavior, it would immediately be illegal in California and Massachusetts.

    Funny.

    But true.
