Unmasking the Genius of Comedy Greats


Unmasking the Genius of Comedy’s Greats…With XM Satellite Radio’s very own Genius, the incomparable, Ron Bennington

I guess you can say that comedy is a subjective thing. That’s why we love some comics and loathe others. After the passing of George Carlin, I started thinking about his comedy and others who have made this genre great. The immortal names we spoke of yesterday certainly paved the way for today’s talent.

Inaugural Inductee, Raquel Welch


Born: Jo Raquel Tejada, Chicago, Illinois, USA
September 5, 1940 (age 68)

From my very earliest memories of boyhood, Raquel Welch made the blood rush to my lower extremities, causing many an impromptu pup tent in my Flinstones pj’s. It is my personal opinion that Raquel is a true goddess and perhaps the sexiest woman to ever grace the silver screen. Playboy Magazine once called this buxom cat, the most desired woman of the 1970’s.

Even at 68 years old, this Grand Cougare is still built like a brick port-a-john, and through the wonders of plastic surgery, the old gal is still hotter than hell, itself! One surprising fact is that even as a sex symbol, with appearances in R movies and photos in Playboy, Raquel has never posed in the nude. I think she has gotten away with it because her body is voluptuous and her persona just drips with sex. The point being is that she has created such a mystique that just the mere thought of her her baring all can drive a man to the brink of his most carnal desires. With that gorgeous face, big hips, and humongously swollen appendages, I have to rank Ms. Welch at the very top of the Cougar chain.

FACTOIDS ON RAQUEL WELCH… Playboy magazine’s list of the 100 sexiest stars of the twentieth century placed Welch third – right behind Marilyn Monroe and Jayne Mansfield Welch’s parents are Armand Carlos Tejada, a Bolivian immigrant of Castilian Spanish extraction, and his American wife, Josephine Sarah Hall Attended San Diego State College on a theater arts scholarship Has been married four times, the first to her high school sweetheart, James Welch First featured role was in 1966 sci-fi film classic Fantastic Voyage, but the movie One Million Years BC was her first big breakthrough She performed the first interracial love scene with Jim Brown in the movie, 100 Riffles Won the 1973 Golden Globe for best actress in the Three Musketeers The Raquel Welch Total Beauty and Fitness Program was published in 1984. The book, written by Welch herself, includes a Hatha Yoga fitness program, her views on healthy living/nutrition, as well as beauty and personal style Has two children Raquel has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame

COUGAR HALL of FAME @ Planet Zman


Welcome to Zman’s COUGAR HALL of FAME
Since I was a lad, I’ve always had a certain yearning for the older gals. I couldn’t explain it back then, but when my friends were checking out the cheerleaders – I was checking out their moms. With today’s COUGAR craze, many tell me that I was truly ahead of my time. Guess you could call me a pioneer – a big game hunter for the elder, more cunning kittys.

ABOUT THIS FELINE HALL OF HAPPINESS
A woman is granted COUGARHOOD upon reaching the ripe age of thirty-five. There are four levels of cats as illustrated in the box below. As these ladies age like fine wine, they graduate to new and higher levels.

CLICK> R. Welch . CLICK> J. Seymour . CLICK> D. Moore . CLICK> S. Hayek . CLICK> H. Klum

I (Tommy Z) am the curator and grand poobah of this hallowed dwelling. The Inaugural Induction has placed five sumptuous and well deserved COUGARS into its rankings. Each week, one new COUGAR will be added and featured in the Hall. Click the link for the corresponding Cougars and every week you will read bios, factoids, and glom at some of the loveliest pictorals imaginable.

CRITERIA FOR A COUGAR
One simple rule I have is that each lady chosen must still float my personal boat. In other words – they’ve still gotta be well kept and desirable to be named a coveted kitty. I have no problems with plastic surgery as there would be no Hall without the men who nip and tuck these elder beauties. But note that in the event a Hall of Famer hags out or turns into a grotesque fattie, I have the option of revoking their charter.

Now since this is my house, I will choose the ladies who I personally feel are worthy of this honor. While you may disagree with some of my esteemed picks, I can only suggest that YOU spend hundreds of hours and thousand of dollars to start your own website. Until then, please feel free to enjoy the fruits of my labor.

I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!
I really want to hear your comments and feedback on the inductees! And I especially want you to send in your own personal picks! Remember, 35 is the minimum age so Angelina Jolie and Eva Longoria are still considered Cougars In Training. And don’t tell me about Ginger, Mary Ann, Farah, or Sophia Lauren because they all look like god damned fossils. Longevity is key.

And hey, if you’ve got a hottie COUGAR for a wife, main squeeze, girlfriend, or neighbor, send their photos on in and they just might be named as an honorable Planet Zman Guest Cougar! That’d be pretty sweet huh?
