Rather Redux [Dan Collins]

Heh:

 “Oral arguments today in Rather lawsuit against CBS/Viacom. Dan Rather will be there in person.”

Also, Irishfolk discover South Pole: 

A four-strong team of explorers have become the first Irish expedition to reach the South Pole, they told RTE state radio Wednesday. The team were hailed by President Mary McAleese and Prime Minister Bertie Ahern for their achievement, which made front-page news in Ireland.

They departed 17 years ago, but made very little progress till the whiskey ran dry.  And if you don’t think that’s funny, please write and tell me why.

    The first to reach the pole was Miles, from Dublin.

    Woo, they had some harrowing adventures. Dr. O’Connell was staggering up a the with a small Paddy in his back pocket when he slipped and fell heavily, nearly plummeting down a 400 ft crevass.

    From the link:

    “Struggling to his feet, he felt something wet running down his leg.’
    Please, God,’ he implored, ‘let it be blood!’

    A “doctor specialising in gastroenterology” got to the bottom of the world. Heh.

    This is some kind Rorschach test, right? Give ’em two options, and check which they bite.

    Right?

  8. I don’t think it’s funny. I mean, the whiskey RAN DRY? They could have been sober for God’s sake, think of the children.

  9. And are you saying the Irish are too stupid to know how to pack enough booze for a polar expedition? I think you are…

    Right?

    Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you feel like Irish anti-freeze.

    I reached the pole many years ago.

    As soon as I figured out that it was right below my belly button.
