About Time

Dan Rather has finally been fired from SeeBS. One can only think that the long delay was a way to save face, and hope that everyone had forgotten what a fiasco it was.

He's still in denial, of course:

Rather has said several times that "my best work is still ahead of me." He is described by friends as hurt and puzzled by the attitude of CBS management.

Yup, I don't care what anyone says, those Emperor's new duds looked great!

Rand,

You do realize when you reference "Emperor's New Clothes" and Dan Rather, there is absolutely no way I'm going to click the link.

Don't worry, there are no pictures of Dan, with or without clothes.

Rather has said several times that "my best work is still ahead of me."

That's a pretty easy hurdle, Dan.

Hey Dan, don't let the door hit you in the butt on your way out...loser!

Posted by Orville at June 15, 2006 02:10 PM

It's don't let the door hit you where the good Lord split you!

Thank goodness mom and dad had one brother that lived!

Dan's best work was thrown out with the Pampers many decades ago.

Dan's best work was thrown out with the Pampers many decades ago.

Dan was recently asked what he'll be working on now, and he replied, "Depends."
