R-E-S-P-E-C-T

After Grog Blog has a delightful article that takes David Hasselhoff's complaints that he hasn't gotten the credit he deserves for ending the Cold War and examines the evidence:

Speaking to Germany's TV Spielfilm magazine, the 51-year-old carped about how his pivotal role in harmonising relations between the two sides of the divide had been overlooked.

"I find it a bit sad that there is no photo of me hanging on the walls in the Berlin Museum at Checkpoint Charlie," he told the magazine.

So what, if anything, was David Hasselhoff's influence in helping settle the Cold War?

It's exactly the kind of thing I like to ponder on a Wednesday morning.

Better still, as a warning against the evils of capitalism, Kimberly from Different Strokes.
