I am so watching this… I love Walter!

I searched stole my thunder.

OMG is right!

Another way to outsource during a writers strike? Naw. I must disagree.

Walter is tolerable for a two-minute, ironically ha-ha funny laugh and nostalgia trip once every few days at best. But he has a complete fresa-brujo vibe going. It reminds me of my friend’s grandmother who would visit from Guatemala read tarot cards and the palms of women trapped in shitty marriages with cheating husbands. They hung onto every word. Typically the predictions were eeerie in their accuracy, according to my relatives and friends. But to this day, I call booshit.

Shit, Cesar Millan’s better at getting results than Walter. I want to see him pinch and “ccht..” completely aggroed bipolar dudes in manic fits and get them to behave. And he jumped the border, too.

Pocho, stop hatin on my peeps or we won’t bring more turcocks your way. Astrology ain’t no concrete science, but you gotta give props to Wally for being so articulate and optimistic when delivering the zodiac. I dunno, but the rest of the astrologers (not psychics) tend to pale in comparison to Walter and his way with words. Ultimately it doesn’t matter if his predictions are correct, but he does have this televangelist/Richard Simmons thing going that makes people believe that they possess the power to change for the better. Unlike Dionne Warrick who asked for your money and told you that crack is indeed whack. Anyway, I LOVE Walter. And I know you secretly love him too.

Walter always makes me laugh. It’s not so much what he is saying, but how he says it. Sort of like how that fake Jamaican accent earned thousands for Miss Cleo. It’s all in the delivery.

perhaps i should have told you guys

no snark, pocho: he was amazingly nice and even the crew who didn’t know who he was were impressed.

there are a few other pix up there.

This me reminded me of an old radio show in my hometown. It was a flamboyantly gay guy reading horoscopes and giving advice and his name was “frankie market” in homage to old Sr. Mercado of course!

@el smrtmnky & Borsican: He does seem like a real sweetie on the teevee, I have to admit. I do secretly love him, especially as a fixture on the Latino landscape.

But I think I like my horoscopes a little more raw. I’ll take Ian Svenonious’s Horoscopes in Arthur Magazine (when they were around…) over Walter’s toot sweet.

@el smrtmnky: But I want to see the picture! Google seriously needs to buy out Yahoo. The photo is password protected!

I always love to hear my grandma tell stories of how Walter (who for those that do not know is actually 77 years old) when he was in high school and took the bus to go to school would pull up the window so his hair wouldnt get mess up and would be filing his nails…

I. am. so. watching. this.

And I usually hate those stupid VH1 shows.

@sel smrtmnky: Pretty. Amazing. Lucky you.
