Eugene David<br>...The One-Minute Pundit

Posted 9:11 AM by Gene

Shucks, we were hoping we'd have a BRUCE kind of day with the newsrags. Given how they're always copying off each others' notes it's the least they can do. (And as we know news hacks don't have to peer over each others' shoulders to think alike.) To be sure our hearts are in the right place; we are told "Couric cries regularly." We know you folks are androids; do you have to keep up the ruse? (And we've done a cover story on someone without interviewing the subject! Neat presto-changeo!)

Meantime in that other useless pile of pulp, a "(RET.)" calls for Rummy to resign, which means no one will pay attention (certainly Rummy won't), and we plug a movie by calling its antecedent "tragic", which suggests all those fancy meals in the five-star restaurants at the DOUBLE-TOWER of BABBLE are starting to weigh down our minds.

(P. S.: There's a neat quote from one of the film's stars in the third graf that shows how fake this property could be. His name's Cheyenne Jackson, and I remember it because he starred in that immortal musical triumph ALL SHOOK UP!!!!!)
