How High Is The Water, Captain?
....Six inches high and rising.
More on the Kosinski Canoe Caper on the NBC Today Show. Via Michelle Malkin (again). We have this article from the NY Observer:
Weve witnessed outrage, compassion, pageantry, hyperbole, hunger, nausea, violence and the inimitable resilience of the human spirit. What could possibly be left?
A canoe!
We have not seen a correspondent paddle through a few inches of standing water in what is rumored to be a $1,500 canoe.
This, in more innocent form, is the idea that flashed through a Today show producers mind on Thursday night. Streets were flooded. Residents and rescue workers were riding around in boats. It made perfect sense.
They bought a boat and had it delivered the following morning. Ms. Kosinski arrived early to practice paddling around. She had been in a canoe before, she said, but never by herself, and never in waters any rougher than a slow-moving stream. They tried to set up the shot at an intersection where the water was waist-high and the current was strong, but they couldnt light it, Ms. Kosinski said. The microphone was wireless and it wasnt working, and with all the equipment, they couldnt wade out into the deep water.
So producers asked Ms. Kosinski to paddle to where the water was shallower. She did. She wasnt happy about it. But she did.
Even though I wanted to show deeper water, in the end I said O.K. I didnt really think it was inappropriate, she said. ...

Michelle recommends LLBean wading shoes for Michelle's next canoe trip.
We suggest these:
If you cannot be honest in the little things you are given to be honest in...
How can you be trusted to be honest in the big things...?
Actually, watch the video closely...
Those two guys are giants...Japanese monster-sized giants, wading through 25-foot deep water...
The camera angle just makes them appear to be the same size as her...
The media really thinks we're stupid.
She should apologize for being a fraudulent liar.
So did I!(See tagline)
(Actually, it's become a cultural cliche.)
Nice touch... I RATHER think you got to the essence of the issue.
I found it here
Priceless!
