    but even I know that Howard Stern + FCC chairman = fireworks . Shame (but not unexpected) that the blog is down already.

    Maybe the FCC pulled it? :)

    That's a self-negating statement if I've seen heard one.

    I guess if you were expecting someone to call in saying, "Hello, Powell? Baa baa booey baa baa booey, Howard Stern's penis! Baa baa booey!" your expectations can only go up from there.

    I personally would rather see naked women, then dead men on my TV

    OK, naked women I can understand, but why the hell would you want to see dead men after you've seen the naked women?
