Game Thread: Cubs @ White Sox 3:05 P.M. CT/ 4:05 P.M. ET: Fired Up and Read
2008-06-27 13:00:00 After a pleasant (if ultimately unsatisfying) three game series against the Baltimore Orioles, the Cubs resume their tireless battle against the Cthulhu-loving Chicago White Sox. The giant Cubs-colored head of Barack Obama has just one question for all of us. Yes We Can! Because Barack Obama is a White Sox fan, I think I speak for all of us when I say he is not my first choice for President. That honor has to go to the Constitutionally-ineligible-but--nevertheless-undaunted Ryan Scott Dempster If elected, Ryan Dempster will be our first Canadian President, ending the years of oppression Canadians have suffered under American-American rule. When he's not executing child rapists single-handed, Dempster is pitching pretty well for the Cubs. In his last start, he went 8 innings and only let up one run. Ryan is a Taurus, and his horoscope is: The mere mention of your name strikes fear and terror in the hearts of men, though that's mainly because it's so difficult to pro...

You're Not Fired, You're Unemployable!
2008-06-05 12:47:00 Many years ago, I interviewed for a job with one of the big consulting firms. I made it through to what I thought was the end of the interview process, only to find that the HR Director of the company had requested a personal meeting with me. While I had done very well throughout the interview process, proving myself to be a capable consultant, she was concerned because I had been self-employed in the past. Disregarding the years I had spent working for a very large company, she asked if I could actually be a good team player and if I wasn't more inclined to become 'Businesswoman of the Year'. When this company offered me a job, I rejected it, as I didn't want to work for a company that equated being 'self-employed' to being 'unable to work with people' or that saw being a team player and a leading businesswoman as being mutually exclusive.I'm thinking about this now because of what happened on last night's episode of The Apprentice, where the five contestants went through...

Fired Apprentice Has More Sex Appeal
2008-06-02 23:00:00 Fired Apprentice candidate Michael Sophocles has claimed that he has increased sex appeal as a result of his appearance on the programme.Though he was one of the most controversial contestants of the series, the 25-year-old telesales executive has received more than his fair share of female attention in recent weeks."I'm a sex addict. I just love women," Michael told the News of the World. "I've slept with over 70 but I've only had two girlfriends, and I haven't been in love. When I'm with someone I always see other women who I want to sleep with."It's great - I can now just go up to someone and not have to make any small-talk. They'll just jump into bed with me."Sophocles also confirmed reports that he worked as a male escort while studying at Edinburgh University. He turned to the occupation after running up gambling debts."I was looking through a dirty magazine in bed and I saw ads for escort agencies. I called one and they wanted a £100 joining fee," Michael explained. "I...

Obama Fired Up and Ready to Go to the White House
2008-06-01 22:50:00 Barack Obama just gave a great speech in Mitchell, South Dakota, on the day that Hillary Clinton won handily in Puerto Rico, but the day after the Democratic National Committee finally settled the crisis of how to count the votes of Florida and Michigan, and settled this in a way which was both fair to Hillary Clinton but brought Obama to less than 50 delegates needed to clinch the nomination.It could not have been settled any other way. As I've been saying since January, before either primary, the DNC initial decision to not count any of the votes was inane and destructive. But with that decision in effect on the days of the voting, there was no way those elections could be considered fair and reflective of the popular will. In Michigan, where only Clinton's name was on the ballot, who can say or assess how many people would have voted differently had Obama's name been on the ballot, too.Whatever happens in the final two primaries in South Dakota and Montana on Tuesday, Obama...

Worker at GM plant fired over Camaro photo leak
2008-06-01 03:57:00 Worker at GM plant fired over Camaro photo leak An electrician working at General Motors' Oshawa Assembly Plant lost his job this past week after company officials linked him to the leak of several photos showing a prototype Camaro body shell. The photos found their way onto the internet May 22nd and were published by multiple major automotive websites, including Leftlane. Details of the leak come via a source within the plant, who claims to have intimate knowledge of the controversy. According to our tipster, the employee — who has 28 years seniority — used a camera phone to take pictures of the body to show to his children at home. Unfortunately for the unidentified employee, friends of his children got ahold of the photos and distributed them on the Web. It's not known exactly what the photos depict, but it appears GM might be starting to test the assembly process at the Oshawa, Ontario plant, where the Camaro (and other Zeta-platform variants...

You're Fired: This Teacher Deserves It
2008-05-27 13:20:00 What does a teacher need to do to get fired these days? Well let’s see that this teacher gets the boot. In Port St. Lucie, Florida a kindergarten class, under the direction of their teacher, voted to kick a boy out of their class (http://www.tcpalm.com/news/200-8/may/23/st-lucie-teacher-has-c-lass-vote-whether-5-year-old/).- Alex Barton was voted out of the class by a margin of 14-2. The reasons cited for voting Alex out of the class ranged from the fact that he was “annoying” to disgusting. First, kindergartners shouldn’t be doing a Survivor style vote and second, Alex may have Asperger’s. Can anyone say lawsuit? Asperger’s Syndrome is a form of autism, a high-functioning form, but a form nonetheless it would make Alex react differently than the average child in social settings. So what better way to initiate him into our society than vote the poor kid out of his kindergarten class? This just sucks. I'm not sure how those involved i...

LIZ TROTTA SHOULD BE FIRED FOR SAYING OBAMA SHOULD BE KILLED
2008-05-26 15:05:00 See this video because Fox News had the never to allow this person Liz Trotta to say that Barack Obama should be killed. What the fuck is going on here? Why are we allowing this steady diet of people -- frankly older White folks in news -- making comments that Obama should be killed or shot at? Moreover, why is Liz Trotta allowed to keep her job? Why isn't the FBI or Secret Service paying attention to this overall string of scary commentary blasted before us? This is a parade of sick individuals before the public eye. See this:UPDATE: This post has led to a lively conversation, but someone asked that I write a follow-up of more detail. I did. It breaks down the details behind who has been making these comments and offers a view of the possible reasons, one of which is the lack of diversity in newsroom's like that of Fox News.
