Now, why am I not surprised about this?

As a Rule, I am not a big fan of Gawker.com. (Because I ended up on there once! 😮 )  But this one is too good to pass up:

CNN’s Susan Roesgen went nuts on the air Wednesday at a Chicago tea party, blaming everything (accurately) on Fox News. But maybe she was angry because Fox turned her down for a job—twice!

Roesgen got snippy with a crazy interviewee while trying to cover the tea partiers, and the crowd turned on her. “I think you get the general tenor of this,” she said. “It’s anti-government, anti-CNN since this is highly promoted by the right-wing conservative network Fox.”

Back in 2005, though, according to a Fox News source, Roesgen really wanted to work for that right-wing conservative network. She sent a tape of her on-air work to Fox’s then-programming chief Kevin Magee in January 2005, and followed up with another reel to Magee’s successor Bill Shine in September 2005. Needless to say, she didn’t get the gig.

Man, the irony here is just too good. Nothing says asshole more than slamming a network; that you tried to apply for, more than doing what this feckless bitch tried to do. This is to say nothing about her total unprofessional treatment of the people she was trying to interview. Political Bias and an axe to grind; man, can’t get much more catty that! I thought Malkin was a bit catty! Wow! Meeooow indeed!

Gawker goes on:

So next time you see CNN or MSNBC talking heads—like Fox News alum David Shuster, for instance—talking about how awful Fox is (which it is!), just remember: It’s all business, kids.

Indeed. So, that explains O’Reilly and Olbermann? Huh, and here I thought it was some sort of gay crush thing. Doggone.

Letter to my bank

Dear Sirs,
One of my checks was returned marked “insufficient funds”. In view of current developments in the banking industry, does that refer to me or to you?

Humor: Idiot Sightings

Something I recieved via e-mail:

Be Careful Out There:

IDIOT SIGHTING:
We had to have the garage door repaired.  The Sears repairman told us that one of our problems was that we did not have a ‘large’ enough motor on the opener.  I thought for a minute, and said that we had the largest one Sears made at that time, a 1/2 horsepower.  He shook his head and said, ‘Lady, you need a 1/4 horsepower.’  I responded that 1/2 was larger than 1/4.  He said, ‘NO, it’s not.  Four is larger than two..’

We haven’t used Sears repair since.

IDIOT SIGHTING:

My daughter and I went through the McDonald’s take-out window and I gave the clerk a $5 bill.  Our total was $4.25, so I also handed her a quarter.  She said, ‘you gave me too much money.’  I said, ‘Yes I know, but this way you can just give me a dollar bill back.’  She sighed and went to get the manager who asked me to repeat my request.  I did so, and he handed me back the quarter, and said ‘We’re sorry but they could not do that kind of thing.’  The clerk then proceeded to give me back $1 and 75 cents in change..

Do not confuse the clerks at McD’s.

IDIOT SIGHTING:
I live in a semi rural area.  We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the DEER CROSSING sign on our road.  The reason: ‘Too many deer are being hit by cars out here!  I don’t think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore.’

From Kingman , KS …

IDIOT SIGHTING IN FOOD SERVICE:
My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco.  She asked the person behind the counter for ‘minimal lettuce.’  He said he was sorry, but they only had iceberg lettuce.

From Kansas City

IDIOT SIGHTING:
I was at the airport, checking in at the gate when an airport employee asked, ‘Has anyone put anything in your baggage without your knowledge?’  To which I replied, ‘If it was without my knowledge, how would I know?’

He smiled knowingly and nodded, ‘That’s why we ask.’

Happened in Birmingham , Ala.

IDIOT SIGHTING:
The stoplight on the corner buzzes when it’s safe to cross the street.  I was crossing with an intellectually challenged coworker of mine.  She asked if I knew what the buzzer was for.  I explained that it signals blind people when the light is red.  Appalled, she responded, ‘What on earth are blind people doing driving?!’

She was a probation officer in Wichita , KS

IDIOT SIGHTING:
At a good-bye luncheon for an old and dear co-worker who was leaving the company due to ‘downsizing.’

Our manager commented cheerfully, ‘This is fun.  We should do this more often.’  Not another word was spoken.  We all just looked at each other with that deer-in-the-headlights stare.

This was a lunch at Texas Instruments.

IDIOT SIGHTING:
I work with an individual who plugged her power strip back into itself and for the sake of her life, couldn’t understand why her system would not turn on.

A deputy with the Dallas County Sheriffs office, no less.

IDIOT SIGHTING:

When my husband and I arrived at an automobile dealership to pick up our car, we were told the keys had been locked in it.  We went to the service department and found a mechanic working feverishly to unlock the driver side door.  As I watched from the passenger side, I instinctively tried the door handle and discovered that it was unlocked.  ‘Hey,’ I announced to the technician, ‘its open!’  His reply, ‘I know.  I already got that side.’

This was at the Ford dealership in Canton, MS
