While You Were “Working” (August 14th, 2008)

Here’s some stuff that happened while you were “working”:
- Today, on my new favorite reality show, The Russia-Georgia War, a Georgian reporter got shot while she was live on the air — and kept right on reporting!! Man, Georgia really pulls out all the stops for sweeps.
- On my second favorite reality show, the Olympics, some Swedish dude thought he deserved more than a lousy bronze, so he threw his medal on the floor and stormed out!! Oh, and also: Michael Phelps, Michael Phelps, Michael Phelps.
- Julia Child was a spy! And I can’t even make a decent goddamn piece of toast.
- Ernest Borgnine is six million years old. His secret? A healthy dose of happy handshakes. Longevity, here I come!
- (Sorry. Couldn’t help myself.)
