Its come the time to fire these folks because they are useless!
the bight lights in the City On The Hill. Typo. BliGht lights. There, fixed it.
My favorite Dan-ism: “You would sooner find a tall talking broccoli stick to offer to mow your lawn for free.”
td-ism: She’s purtier than a speckled pup in a litter of runts, but if brains were gunpowder she couldn’t blow her nose.
This is arguably true meaning they all suck.
Josef Goebbels probably had his grüppies as well.
Yes he was. Right after Walter Duranty, Jayson Blair, Mike Barnicle, Janet Cook, and David Halevi.
