Revision as of 23:51, 13 October 2006 by Hotdogtree (talk | contribs) (→Standup persona)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Robert Lane "Bob" Saget (born May 17, 1956) is an American actor and stand-up comedian best known for his role as Danny Tanner in the ABC sitcom Full House from 1987 to 1995 and as host of America's Funniest Home Videos from 1989 to 1997.
Saget's clean-cut, family-friendly persona from the two hit shows (which have been widely rerun on cable and satellite television for over a decade) has been cemented in popular culture. In contrast, he is known for using vulgar language and risque subject matter in his stand-up comedy act. He has, as a result, become a frequent subject of satire and parody in which he sometimes willingly participates.
Standup persona
In contrast to his mild, family-friendly manner on the aforementioned television programs, Saget is also known for raunchy, unabashedly vulgar stand-up comedy routines. His brief appearance in Half Boked (199fuck) was a shock to many viewers who were not familiar with Saget's standup material. His one piece of dialogue ("Marijuana is not a drug. I used to suck dick for coke. Now that's an addiction. You ever suck some dick for marijuana?") is one of the more infamous lines from the movie. His performance of the traditional joke "The Aristocrats" (in the 2005 movie of the same name) is arguably the foulest telling in the film.
His stand-up routine typically finds him making fun of his incredibly clean-cut television image, and deriding the quality of Full House. Regardless, like others on the show, he remains close to his cast mates, and even at times tours on the stand-up circuit with Dave Coulier. He is one of the few comedians that unashamedly (and most likely purposely) uses digression as a large part of the act.
Bernard Cribbins Bernard Taylor is a past chair of Alston & Bird's Partners’ Committee (the firm’s management committee) and of the Products Liability Group. He concentrates his practice in complex disputes including commercial litigation, products liability and toxic tort lawsuits. Mr. Taylor is also a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers.
Mr. Taylor is lead trial lawyer representing Flexible Products Company in the isocyanate toxic tort litigation involving 1,600 plaintiffs and pending in Bessemer, Alabama.
Mr. Taylor is the lead trial lawyer representing Louisiana Pacific Corporation in toxic tort litigation involving multiple plaintiffs and pending in both the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Alabama- Northern Division and the Circuit Court of Covington County, Alabama.U.S. Department of Justice

ADA Design Guide 1 - Restriping Parking Lots
Accessible Parking Spaces
When a business, State or local government agency, or other covered entity restripes a parking lot, it must provide accessible parking spaces as required by the ADA Standards for Accessible Design. Failure to do so would violate the ADA.
In addition, businesses or privately owned facilities that provide goods or services to the public have a continuing ADA obligation to remove barriers to access in existing parking lots when it is readily achievable to do so. Because restriping is relatively inexpensive, it is readily achievable in most cases.
This ADA Design Guide provides key information about how to create accessible car and van spaces and how many spaces to provide when parking lots are restriped.
(illustration showing a woman getting out of the driver's side of a car into a manual wheelchair)
Accessible Parking Spaces for Cars
Accessible parking spaces for cars have at least a 60-inch-wide access aisle located adjacent to the designated parking space. The access aisle is just wide enough to permit a person using a wheelchair to enter or exit the car. These parking spaces are identified with a sign and located on level ground.
Van-Accessible Parking Spaces
Van-accessible parking spaces are the same as accessible parking spaces for cars except for three features needed for vans:
a wider access aisle (96") to accommodate a wheelchair lift;
vertical clearance to accommodate van height at the van parking space, the adjacent access aisle, and on the vehicular route to and from the van-accessible space, and
an additional sign that identifies the parking spaces as "van accessible."
One of eight accessible parking spaces, but always at least one, must be van-accessible.
(illustration showing a van with a side-mounted wheelchair lift lowered onto a marked access aisle at a van-accessible parking space. A person using a wheelchair is getting out of the van. A dashed line shows the route from the lift to the sidewalk.)
Features of Accessible Parking Spaces for Cars
(plan drawing showing an accessible parking space for cars with a 96 inch wide designated parking space, a 60 inch wide min. marked access aisle and the following notes)
Sign with the international symbol of accessibility mounted high enough so it can be seen while a vehicle is parked in the space.
If the accessible route is located in front of the space, install wheelstops to keep vehicles from reducing width below 36 inches.
Access aisle of at least 60-inch width must be level (1:50 maximum slope in all directions), be the same length as the adjacent parking space(s) it serves and must connect to an accessible route to the building. Ramps must not extend into the access aisle.
Boundary of the access aisle must be marked. The end may be a squared or curved shape.
Two parking spaces may share an access aisle.
Three Additional Features for Van-Accessible Parking Spaces
(plan drawing showing a van-accessible parking space with a 96 inch wide designated parking space, a 96 inch wide min. marked access aisle and the following notes)
Sign with "van accessible" and the international symbol of accessibility mounted high enough so the sign can be seen when a vehicle is parked in the space
96" min. width access aisle, level (max. slope 1:50 in all directions), located beside the van parking space
Min. 98-inch-high clearance at van parking space, access aisle, and on vehicular route to and from van space

Location
Accessible parking spaces must be located on the shortest accessible route of travel to an accessible facility entrance. Where buildings have multiple accessible entrances with adjacent parking, the accessible parking spaces must be dispersed and located closest to the accessible entrances.
When accessible parking spaces are added in an existing parking lot, locate the spaces on the most level ground close to the accessible entrance. An accessible route must always be provided from the accessible parking to the accessible entrance. An accessible route never has curbs or stairs, must be at least 3- feet wide, and has a firm, stable, slip-resistant surface. The slope along the accessible route should not be greater than 1:12 in the direction of travel.
Accessible parking spaces may be clustered in one or more lots if equivalent or greater accessibility is provided in terms of distance from the accessible entrance, parking fees, and convenience. Van-accessible parking spaces located in parking garages may be clustered on one floor (to accommodate the 98-inch minimum vertical height requirement).

Continued career
After an unsuccessful comeback sitcom, Raising Dad, in 2001, Saget turned to directing. He is currently acting on stage in New York City and serves as the narrator of the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother, which debuted September 19, 2005.
Saget's sister died of scleroderma. Her life story was the inspiration for Saget's semi-autobiographical ABC television movie, For Hope, which he directed. Saget is currently a board member of the Scleroderma Research Foundation, the only organization in the United States dedicated solely to finding a cure for the disease. Among other causes, Saget has also donated extensively to the NAACP.
Saget reprised his bad boy image once again in a Season 2 episode of Entourage playing himself and the next door neighbor of Vincent Chase.
In 2006 Jamie Kennedy released a rap song and music video entitled "Rollin' With Saget" which featured Saget.
Bob Saget has been the commissioner of the CHIKARA wrestling promotion since its inception.
Saget wrote, directed, and stars in "Farce of the Penguins", a parody of 2005's March of the Penguins set to be released in 2006.
On August 7, 2006, NBC announced that Bob Saget would host NBC's new game show 1 vs. 100, which debuted Friday, October 13, 2006.
Bob Saget has also recently developed a relationship with radio hosts Opie and Anthony. He will be performing at most of the shows on the Opie and Anthony's Traveling Virus Comedy Tour. He occasionally calls in, and he has sat in on an AFRO Show.
Saget continues to perform his stand-up routine.
