VANITY - Today's Atlanta Journal above the fold
Atlanta Journal Constipation | 1/25/6 | Freedomlover

Posted on 01/25/2006 5:35:44 AM PST by freedomlover

OK this is a ranting vanity and I am late for a meeting but I would like someone to pick up on today's template-driven article by this rag of a paper that focuses on a new "job" for a certain military (Army?) unit that has been set up just for finding and retrieving dead soldiers. Of course this is more newsworthy than units repairing schools etc. I don't read the rag for this very reason but I saw it on the counter of my breakfast joint this AM and wanted to barf. Remember this is a vanity and I am late and p!ssed so cut me some slack if I missed it in a quick search. FL

I took another look at the article on my way through our lobby and noted it was Marines, IIRC Marine Reserves that had been assigned this new "task" - as if Marines weren't known for that already.

I will look for the article tomorrow that features Marines involved in uplifting tasks such as repairing schools, infrastructure, etc. /sarc

I gotta use that excuse next time I'm late:

ME: "Sorry I'm late, but I got caught in a rambling vanity..."
BOSS: "S'okay."

BTW, did you make your meeting?

Well actually...

BOSS: "Yes, he's the best worker I have. Always on that thing. Busier than a Japanese Beaver, that one!"

Promotion time?

Actually we have had a couple of clients express irritation at some in our company that spend more time looking at their BBs instead of the client during meetings.

Morons (our people).

Oh Absolutely. I think the Al Jazeera one was coined by the Kimmer.

I tried FR on a blackberry, once. It didn't work for $#!+.

Fortunately, I don't own a crackberry ... I had to use the thing during a month-long "project". I hated it.

I saw through the window of a newspaper box this morning and my first reaction also was - that is what they do already. And this is their big story on the front page.

I believe it. A buddy of mine told me that when he watches TV he keeps glancing down at the remote. Probably PDA's his Pop Tarts too.
