It's been one week since this whole late night saga began and the sides in the battle are starting the blur. On Monday, Jay Leno got serious as he decided to discuss this saga from his point of view. In his address, he mentioned the 2004 plan of handing the Tonight Show over to Conan in 2009. Leno said that he disagreed in the move, as he was still on top until his last show. NBC assured him that it would avoid what happened in 1992.
He then mentioned that he tried to leave NBC twice, once in 2009 when he left Tonight, now wishing to go elsewhere, only to be talked by NBC into doing the prime-time show. The second time was when NBC cancelled the prime-time show. Both times, NBC decided not to release from his contract.
Ironically, this whole mess began in 2004 as a means of keeping Conan at NBC instead of losing him to a rival network. Now, with Conan being forced to leave Tonight in order to allow Leno's return, he will now be able to do so. In essense, NBC caused the situation they hoped to avoid six years ago. A kind of non-time-travel-based Grandfather Paradox, if you will.
As Conan's exit from The Tonight Show comes closer, all of us Conan's fans must review that from both sides, NBC must take the blame for what it did. Althought they had the right idea, i.e. transistioning hosts of a storied show, the way they did it was wrong and costed them one of television's greatest talents. Conan's future looks brighter, as offers pour in.
I, myself, have a place where Conan can go: TBS. They've already got a late-night show with George Lopez. Midnight with Conan O'Brien is in the cards as it seems to me. I hope that when I post part four, the answer has finally arrived. For the last three postings, I've hoped for the answer and although to some, it's arrived, I feel it won't get here until NBC finally lets Conan go. Until the next posting, see ya later!

The NBC Late Night Saga, Part 2
It's Friday and what a week has it been for late-night television, with sides being taken and jokes being told at the expanse of many. For NBC, the whole thing has been a disaster. On Sunday, NBC cancelled Jay Leno's prime-time show, with the action of putting him back at 11:35 pm for a half-hour. However, all those plans came undone when Conan O'Brien decided not to allow his Tonight Show to be pushed back, feeling such action would destroy the beloved show.
NBC as a whole has since been quiet. However, others have made their stand. ABC's own late-night personality, Jimmy Kimmel, has been making the most of it. On Tuesday, he did his show dressed as Leno, down to a fake chin extension. During his monolouge, he told his audience that he, as Leno, was to take over all late-night shows and that ABC stood for Always Bump Conan. To boot, that night's guest, Chevy Chase, came out dressed as Conan to complete the joke.
That wasn't the last of it. On Thursday's edition of The Jay Leno Show, Kimmel appeared on that show's popular 10@10 segment. During the appearence, Kimmel seem to make it known that he was on Conan's side in the battle. At the end, Kimmel made a plea to Leno to leave his and Conan's shows alone. The other late-night hosts have not gone to extremes like Kimmel but they seem to be for Conan, for their jokes on the matter make Leno the bad guy.
Even so, the reception at NBC is varied. One high-ranking exec said that Conan and others were taking things out on Leno because they can't seem to beat him. He also said that Conan's attacks at NBC and Leno were chicken-hearted. The rumor mill has working full-speed on the late night battle, with as much as word of Conan's departure and Leno's return making the rounds. Without further word from NBC, people will be caught up in the rumors.
My opinion on this is that Conan should stay at 11:35 pm on NBC and that Leno should find some other place to do his comedy. Afterall, a whole set of networks would love to hire Leno for their own late-night lineups. For all purposes, I'm on Team Conan and I will fight for the right for Conan to stay where he is. As said before, keep the Olympics. Part three of this saga might have the solution to this problem, for better or worser. Until the next posting, see ya later!

11 Days of the Motherless Child
Today, for my readers, I give you the first piece of fiction here on The John Maxwell Blog. This little story is, as the title says, is "11 Days of the Motherless Child" and it's the backbone to what I hope will be the first serial story to be published on the blog. We now begin our story...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
It looked to be a normal day for Buck Owens Berline, age 23, as he walked his way to his job at Lowery's Market in his hometown of Buchanan, Michigan. As he walked, he had no idea what events were about to happen. He walked into the store at 8:00 am and took off his worn-out demim jacket. Under it was his red worker's vest that he got when he took the job over two years ago.
The radio in the store was playing away on a local county station. The stuff coming from the speakers is not Buck's favorite kind. He mostly listens to the songs of his famous namesake. His father had been a fan of Buck Owens and when his son was born, he felt to name his son after his favorite singer.
Now, this gave the boy a certain feeling about him, as he managed to have an above-average childhood. He met his best friend, Tuck Thompson, early, at the age of eight months. Buck and Tuck then spent the rest of their childhoods in one-two order. Buck was the leader and Tuck was the sidekick, to the point that Buck's father often called Tuck "Roy" after his son's namesake's famous sidekick.
After leaving high school, Buck and Tuck worked throught a small number of jobs before landing jobs at the market. For the last two years, Buck has watched the town grow and shrink with the economy. Buck takes little pleasure in his job. Anyway, that day, a Monday to be precise, was the beginning of a little adventure. That day, he began his job with the dispencement of money to the customers as he worked the cash register.
Meanwhile, Tuck worked away in one of the store's aisles, labeling the price onto the cans and putting them on the shelves. The morning went by without a thought. It was after lunch that the events began. At about 1:37 pm or so, a little boy of about 10 years of age came into the store and began to roam the shelves.
The boy wondered around as Buck looked on. The boy then proceeded to grab off the shelves about half a dozen items into a little paper bag he had brought with him. Then the boy brought the bag up to where Buck was and placed it on the belt. Buck then rang up the items as the boy got out the money to pay for it. The boy paid and then left the store.
Buck remarked in his mind on what an interesting sight that was but marked it off as another in a line of strange things about Buchanan, the little out-of-the-way town that people rarely visited. The next day, the boy returned to the store and bought only three items. As before last, Buck rang up the sales and the boy paid and left.
This continued onto a third day as the boy bought four items. The boy paid and left. By this time, Buck was beginning to wonder about the kid and decided that on the kid's next visit, he would talk to the kid. That happened the next day. This time, the kid came in and picked about five items and put them in his little paper bag. As Buck rang up the sales total, he got to talking.
"So, this is the fourth day you've been in here?" asked Buck.
"Yes, it is." said the boy in a Louisiana accent.
"How long have you been in town?" asked Buck.
"Since the hurricane forced us north." said the boy.
"Us? You live with someone?" said Buck.
"Yes, my mother." said the boy.
"Well, does she know what you are doing now?" asked Buck.
"Yes, I told her." said the boy.
"Well, here's your change. Now, give some of that to your mother." said Buck.
"I will. Thank you, sir." said the boy as he left.
At that moment, Tuck comes over to the register.
"What was that?" asked Tuck.
"A little boy. He's been coming in her for the last few days." said Buck.
"Well, that's a little strange?" said Tuck.
"Just ignore it." said Buck.
The next day, the boy came back and he and Buck talked again and learned that the boy about two blocks away. Buck remarks that that's a big distance to walk. The boy remarks that it isn't hard. The boy paid and left. Buck was beginning to suspect something about the boy, like he's not telling anything.
The boy comes in the next day and the next and always paid for his purchases, which doesn't raise Tuck's eye but it sure was beginning to raise Buck's. The boy then doesn't come in on the seventh day, Sunday. Buck wonders if the boy's mother caught him and punished him.
He soon got his answer when the boy returned on Monday. As Buck ring up the sales, Buck decided to question the boy's whereabouts.
"You weren't here yesterday?" asked Buck.
"I wasn't. I was in church. My mother told me to always go to church on Sunday." said the boy.
"My grandmother always wanted me to do the same thing but I never did." said Buck.
"Well, I went to church and prayed for my mother." said the boy.
"Why did you pray for her?" said the boy.
"Because she was in bed." said the boy.
"Well, if she was sick, I can understand." said Buck as he handed the boy his change.
"Many thanks, sir." said the boy as he left.
Buck soon went back to his work.
The following day, the boy came back and got only two items. Buck rang up the sales as he remarked to the boy about his small purchase. The boy paid and left. The next day, the boy didn't visit and Buck wondered about the boy.
"His mother must have caught him." remarked Buck to Tuck.
"He must have." said Tuck.
"I wonder about that boy. He comes in and pays for snack food. He must be sneaking it in." said Buck.
"Why haven't you seen the boy's mother?" asked Tuck.
"Because I'm a checkout line worker." said Buck.
"That must be it. The boy's mother doesn't know you exist." said Tuck.
"You're right. I know he'll be back, I know it." said Buck.
Buck was right in the fact that the boy returned. He returned the next day and this time, he plucked two dozen items off the shelves and placed them in his little bag. When the boy brought the bag up, the boy got out a credit card. This raised up a few questions in Buck.
"Does your mother know you took her card?" asked Buck.
"Not really." said the boy.
"Well, I can't let you charge this stuff to her card without her knowing. I could lose my job." said Buck.
"I'm sorry. Since my mother left, it's been hard." said the boy.
"You told me that your mother was in bed when I asked about her." said Buck. "She is in her bed and she's also gone to a better place." said the boy.
This finally raises up in Buck that something's amiss.
"Can I visit your house and see your mother?" asked Buck.
"Of course." said the boy.
Buck and the boy then walk all the way to the boy's house and walks inside and is comfronted with a mess. The house looks a little untidy and dirty. Dishes and snack wrappers lay on the floor. The television is on a children's show and the boy lead Buck all the way to the boy's mother's bedroom.
Buck opens the bedroom door and sees what the boy has been hiding for over a week. There, on the bed, is the boy's mother. Buck walks over and feels the woman's pulse. Buck finds none, which tells him that the boy's mother is dead.
"Your mother is dead?" asked Buck.
"She is. I found her one morning and I decided to keep her here. I used her money to buy stuff." said the boy.
Buck looks over the body and spots something unusual on the woman's stomach. There, in a small pile, is a pile of change.
"Why are there coins on your mother's tummy?" asked Buck.
"You told me to give some of the change to my mother. I felt she would need in heaven." said the boy.
"Boy, where she is, there is no money." said Buck.
As Buck stared at the body, she felt a feeling of wonderment at how the boy could keep his mother's death from others for 11 days, at least. The body was already beginning to smell, a smell that's hard to explain to a ten-year-old.
Buck, after five minutes, called in the police to collect the body. When the police questioned the boy, they found that the mother was home-schooling him and that her sudden death caused little grief to the boy. For 11 days, the boy had raised himself and had ate all the food in the house and the snacks he bought from the gas station were all gone.
The boy ended up in the custody of Berrien County and remained so until his aunt decided to raise him. Buck, meanwhile, continued with his job and had his own adventures but remembered somewhat of the boy who kept his mother's death a secret and never questioned her demise, something Buck felt would mark his passing, but that's a long time away.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
That concludes the story and the first piece of fiction offered on the blog. I hope that story gives you some idea of what fiction will be published here. Don't worry, the non-fiction will also be published, for life must have its day in court. Soon, I hope to use the two main characters here, Buck and Tuck, in the blog's first serial story, "Our Lady Singer of Buchanan", so keep an eye out for part one. Until the next posting, see ya later!

The NBC Late Night Saga, Part 1
For years, NBC has prided itself on dramas airing in the 10:00 pm slot. Now, that has returned in an unexpected form: the goings-on between Jay Leno, Conan O'Brien, and the network. On Sunday, January 10, NBC announced that it will cancell Leno's prime-time series, ending on Feb. 12, the day the 2010 Winter Olympic Games will start. As part of that plan, Jay would move back to late-night with a half-hour show at 11:35 pm, with The Tonight Show beginning at 12:05 am and Fallon at 1:05 am.
Monday passed with all sides staring down at the deal, with the other networks and those involved making note of the situation. Both Jay and Conan made jokes at the expanse of NBC and their plans. Those on the other networks also made their notes, with Letterman making the best puns of the night as one of his jokes involved the fact that things were so bad at NBC, they were considering hiring him back.
On Tuesday, Conan released a statement, saying that he will not accept the network's plan to move him to 12:05, saying that he would not participate in what he believed to be the show's destruction and would fight to stay at 11:35 pm. NBC went quiet on the remarks. Those involved seemed quiet on the subject as well, althought the jokes continued. On Conan's show, the comic has been jokingly going over his options. On Tuesday's show, he brought in Howie Mandel, who took Conan through his options Deal or No Deal-style, complete with briefcases and girls to match.
Today, it remains to be seen NBC's reaction to Conan's statement on not moving to make room for Jay's return to late-night. Many real options exist for the network, including replacing Conan on Tonight, sending him to another network. Jay also has his options, which include a move to a rival network who would love his services. FOX has been the leading contender to scoop up Conan or Jay so they may have a late-night show of their own.
I have my own suggestion for what to do. It will concern keeping Jay in prime-time. Now, Thursday is comedy night on NBC, as seen by the successes any show there has. So, my suggestion would be to have Jay doing his show once a week, Thursday at 10:00 pm. That way, his comedy will seem fresh for it is coming only once a week and that his views will be spread out more, covering larger events with ease. Also, it would give Jay four fantasic lead-ins. For now, it's just an idea and can stand up to opinion and tinkering.
All in all, the title of this posting says it all. This is part one of a battle that has been fought with the best comedy on television. Part two will bring the answer to the problem and will see if a late-night institution will be destroyed. Keep the Olympics, I'll take this, for as a interested viewer, the next move keeps me moving on. Until the next posting, see ya later!

Promise: What I Offer You on This Blog
Hello again, it's your friend John Maxwell, back for his second posting here on my blog and let me tell you, I've spent the first 10 days of the year 2010 thinking of things I might do on this blog. While you think I've covered the basics in my first posting, I don't think I gave you any idea of what material you might see from a modern-day humorist. So, for the benefit of your people, I will now give you some idea of what you might see.
The first thing I want to give you is my opinions on the current world. You see, I look at the world with different eyes than most and can see the imperfections and bad spots that hurt us, as a species and civilization, so much. World events are easy to comment on if your opinion have no bearings. So, my opinions are not to stir the mind, but to offer it something else besides the usual amount of gruel it gets.
The next thing I will offer is ideas for movies and books I feel should be made but I first feel that public opinion, as stated before, gets things going. The ideas might range from simple plots to complex stories and I will use the blog to run those ideas by you, for if you like any of them, I will make sure they get written or made as soon as I am able to do so. Believe me, you'll enjoy such ideas for my mind works, as said before, on another level.
I will also offer straight fiction for you on this blog. Here, I'm talking about publishing work on this blog, for blogfiction, as it's called, is the future of fiction writing, as magazines get so high and mighty. they forget the first-time writer quite often, so I will offer my work mainly here. That includes the occassinal serial every now and then. These serials will range from stories featuring Cy and Conrad, two characters of mine, and the odd story.
Currently, I'm planning a couple of serials to feature in the future and I hope that they will end up in book form but for now, they are serial material, which rhymes if you say it. That's all I have for now. I hope to give you more in future postings, including what I have outlined. I hope to see you guys again soon on the blogsite, as it is called. See ya later!

World events are easy to comment on if your opinion have no bearings. So, my opinions are not to stir the mind, but to offer it something else besides the usual amount of gruel it gets.
The next thing I will offer is ideas for movies and books I feel should be made but I first feel that public opinion, as stated before, gets things going. The ideas might range from simple plots to complex stories and I will use the blog to run those ideas by you, for if you like any of them, I will make sure they get written or made as soon as I am able to do so. Believe me, you'll enjoy such ideas for my mind works, as said before, on another level.
I will also offer straight fiction for you on this blog. Here, I'm talking about publishing work on this blog, for blogfiction, as it's called, is the future of fiction writing, as magazines get so high and mighty. they forget the first-time writer quite often, so I will offer my work mainly here. That includes the occassinal serial every now and then. These serials will range from stories featuring Cy and Conrad, two characters of mine, and the odd story.
Currently, I'm planning a couple of serials to feature in the future and I hope that they will end up in book form but for now, they are serial material, which rhymes if you say it. That's all I have for now. I hope to give you more in future postings, including what I have outlined. I hope to see you guys again soon on the blogsite, as it is called. See ya later!
