Just as well you didn't get your mug on the telly, because there would have been a huge number of viewer complaints about it being too scary for children!

There is going to be a segment on Today Tonight on "Muscle cars that make money". The preview showed a lot of XY GT's so I think that GRNKPR's interview might be ressurected from the cutting room floor for tonight's show (Friday).

Today Tonight? GRNKPR should now be real scared now. The footage could even turn up in some segment about child molesters, you never know with them.

Well at the very least it will hopefully be accurate *cough* as if *cough*

It will be given some 'ratings spin' I can guarantee that.
