Overheard on Stellar Parthenon

Thanks to JR for this teachable moment

I have a British coworker. We were discussing the election and he just shook his head. “Explain this Palin woman to me,” more of a rhetorical WTF than an actual request but I obliged him.

“What we are looking at is the first chav presidency.”

He looked suitably horrified. “But what about the current bloke?”

“Ok, second chav presidency.”

“Bugger.”

Heh.

Credit Where Credit is Due

I think that Google® Adsense® got it right this time with my post calling bankers wankers:*

Back in December and January, when John McCain was spending money like…well…John McCain, every time I called him a sick, old man, adsense would serve one of his “Death Star” ads, but this time, when I posted something about whining bankers, and they served an ad for “My Name is Earl” and “The Office“, which seems most apropos.

Please note that this is not an inducement for my reader(s) to click on the ads, which is a violation of the Google® Adsense® terms of service.

*Hmmm….there is a rhyme there gotta try and make a rap of it.
