I guess calling in dead is even more effective than calling in sick.
I used to have someone on a staff I managed, tell me when she was going to Atlantic City. Her reason...so I wouldn’t be surprised when she ‘called off rich.’
I really want to ‘use’ that line someday...
And FWIW...isn’t it a shame that TMZ does better investigating Hollywood than the Press Corps does the White House?
