    Too awesome….my two latest fixations come together in a beautiful TVNewsgasm!!

    I’m from Phoenix and a several of the shootings happened in my neighborhood, so needless to say, I’ve been interested in the latest news. After spending all day on CNN.com and other local news websites, TVGasm is the first with an non-blurred picture of the shooter…..Well Done!!

    Oh…by the way, I choose Doogie Hausner. But NPH would have to do the whole method acting thing and gain a few pounds.

    It would have to be The Hausner Joe Simpson Built. Because only guys that creepy-looking talk about their own daughter’s breasts.

    Actually I think Lee Tergsen is an almost dead-on (no pun intended, honest) look alike for this guy. Sorry, but I don’t have a picture to compare with. Maybe a little help from you guys, eh?
