Eason Jordan shares an amusing anecdote with some of his former big media colleagues

Jordan:  “…and then, just as I’m about to pay my little Iraqi ‘escort’ her 4000 dinars –”

Howell Raines:  “— let me guess:  a US Marine sniper takes a shot at you and misses, but manages to kill 2 German reporters and an Al-Jazeera camera man.”

Jordan:  “No.  The little bitch grabs my Pentax Optio S5i and takes off running.  And that wasn’t very funny, Howell.”

Dan Rather:  “Oh, c’mon, Eason.  Granted, it wasn’t no possum in a tar pit—but still, it was a little funny.”*

    No matter How much gravey you spread on those biscuits, you can’t make them taste like veal

    Unless it’s veal gravy. In which case, y’know…nevermind.

    These weird pseudo-Texas sayings you people attribute to me are like so much bear grease in a VCR, you know that?

    Man, that is so reminiscent of “The Year of Living Dangerously.” Which one is Mel Gibson?
