Somebody should write a book about the greatest drinking stories of O'Toole, Burton, Harris, and Caine. One of my faves was Richard Harris went on a six week bender in the South of France without telling wifey. Upon return, she's screaming, and he simply replied "why didn't you pay the ransom"?

Oh here it comes
That funny feeling again winding me up inside Every time we touch
Hey I don't know
Oh, tell me where to begin cause I never ever
Felt so much
Okay, that was pretty easy. Here's one that's 3% harder. But still easy.
Ooh, can you feel the static?
So many contacts being made

BIG NEWS UPDATE NOT FIRED

From her lawyer

"The irresponsible reports that have been published stating that Maria Bartiromo was fired or is no longer an employee of Fox are absolutely and unequivocally false," Freedman said Friday. "Make no mistake, we have the receipts and witnesses and they will come out whether through the courthouse or otherwise."

He added: "Those reporting her firing or the incredulous facts supporting that fiction have exhibited a complete and utter reckless disregard for the truth."

from anon2020
So what, she quit?
Megyn Kelly (accursed be her name) used to say all the time that Fox has a top female PR person who is a nasty pitbull and leaks nasty claims about anyone Fox is at war with, including those who have left the network. So I guess maybe she technically resigned? I don't know.

NEW: @FoxNews has obtained Lindsay Clancy defense attorney Kevin Reddington's appeal filing to the MA Supreme Court, which includes Reddington accusing the lone holdout juror of being "biased" against those with "debilitating mental illness", which he says is a protected category.

Holiday Break: I've had a rough couple of weeks -- the shoulder is healing now and I'm finally getting decent sleep -- and I've decided to take a long weekend.
I'm taking Friday off, and then Monday off, too.
I have Open Threads for both days and I will post if big news breaks, but if it doesn't -- and it probably won't, news is slow before a holiday weekend -- I'm going to take a four day weekend.

Dan Rather's being grilled over his complicity in peddling forgeries to the American people, while John McEnroe is being paid one million dollars to host a show that, out of 834 cable shows, is coming in... 833rd. The one show he's beating? The Food Network's How to Boil Water. You think that's a joke. And yet, you'd be wrong. posted by Ace at 04:49 PM Comments Is there a point at which MSNBC becomes obligated to pay advertisers to allow their products to be associated with their basement shows. I guess that would define the awaited negative rating. Posted by: Eric Pobirs on October 1, 2004 05:12 PM McEnroe's actually on CNBC. MSNBC has the scary-funny Keith Olbermann on at that time. Posted by: ace on October 1, 2004 05:42 PM How To Boil Water is so much better... Posted by: Brian on October 1, 2004 06:27 PM Ace-- Pardon me while I announce that I was the first person to call CNBC onto the carpet for hiring McEnroe instead of me. http://garfieldridge.blogspot.com/2004/09/open-letter-to-cnbc.html God, I can't believe this guy is still on the air. Cheers, Dave Posted by: Dave on October 1, 2004 08:42 PM How is this guy any worse than Chris Mathews? And CNBC, MSNBC, it's all the same. Posted by: Dear Johns on October 2, 2004 04:01 PM McEnroe is an excellent tennis announcer. So far it is the only thing at which he has shown any proficiency since he retired from professional tennis.
