Something for the Kids
I know what a lot of you are thinking. You might think we're not offering anything on this site except bad jokes and pictures of not-naked girls. Not true. You might think we're crazy, and all we want is you. Half true.
The truth is, we Jesus Petes have nearly 100 years of TV watching between us, so in theory, we've been watching TV since before it was invented. That sort of genius insight shouldn't be squandered. From now on, we'll periodically post up some worthless piece of crap that somehow managed to survive the herd-thinning effect of 6 years of constant beer. Think of it as a crash course on being a real Jesus Pete. Prepare for Ken-Jenningsification, and just wait for VH-1 to come a-knockin'.
LESSON 1: Murdoc was a Rock Star
That's right. Michael Des Barres, who played Murdoc - the not-so-deadly hitman and arch nemesis of MacGyver - was a crappy 80's rock star. Remember the band Power Station? Members of Duran Duran (not Simon!) and the recently dead Robert Palmer formed this not-so-super group because their former creative outlets were "not lame enough." All was good, they had a hit with "Some Like it Hot," which to this day makes me like it very, very cold. I don't even know what that means, that's how bad that song is.
Long story long, Robert Palmer left the group to form an army of evil twitching glamour clones and battle his addiction to love, and Murdoc was brought in to replace him. I wish I could say I got really drunk and made all this up, but it's the god damned truth. And yeah, that's Don Johnson down there.
We're not claiming this shit will end up getting you that raise you've been looking for. In fact, spouting this nonsense off will likely get you fired. But if you're in a bar that has those NTN trivia things, you can thank the Jesus Petes for your 1000 point score with a 16oz Molson.

Don't ask me, ask Don Johnson. I guess he didn't want to be seen with him by Murdoc. You can't blame the man for that.
