CORNHOLIO RETURNS!!!

It has been reliably reported that Mike Judge is working on a new series of Beavis and Butt-head cartoons for MTV. No joke. That tremendous boom you heard was the collective jaws of all Daria and B&B fans hitting the ground everywhere on Earth. Is 9th grade Daria returning on that show, too? If not, will all the other background characters of classic B&B be back: Cassandra, Todd, Stewart, Mr. Van Driessen, and everyone else? Will B&B again appear in high school, or will they have moved on to college or postgraduate work? Will they have aged? Will Beavis again yell, "FIRE! FIRE!" What other marvels and wonders are in store? Can we stand the tension before our heads explode? I doubt it.

By awesome coincidence, today is the 16th anniversary of the premiere of "The Great Cornholio," a B&B episode that featured Daria. Cornholio was one of B&B's cosmic epic wins. And someone just wrote a song to go with it, to the tune of a Lady Gaga hit. Will the super-epicness never cease? The episode is somewhere in this collection of episodes on the MTV site, if you wish to see it.

Cornholio's first words to Daria were: "You have TP? TP for my bunghole?" Daria's first words to Cornholio were, of course: "Get outta here, Beavis!"

In news closer to home, this is the 1,700th post on the DFB2. The DFB2 also celebrates 40 followers and almost 180,000 hits in its three years of life. Thank you all! Hope to keep you happy.

As a side note, today is Saint Swithun's Day. Those who know about weather know that if it rains today, it will continue to rain for another 40 days. Or so it is said. We shall see.
