How slow a news day was it? So slow that not only did they have to bug out of real news for O.J. crap, the O.J. crap was itself so slow that they had to bug out of that for this.
Where do you go if this turns boring? “Hardball”?

How do we know that that wasn’t Keith Olbermann?

The chick at the anchor desk was hot…. what was this post about? BTW, it’s funny to see MSNBC continue to try to copy the “hot news chick” success of Fox News, yet still fail to make a showing in ratings.
RightWinged on January 16, 2008 at 8:17 PM
Yeah, I had the same experience watching that clip.
Wineaholic on January 16, 2008 at 8:20 PM
I was flipping channels on my laptop tv tuner and just happened to see that.
Wow.
Oh, that bad little dog at the end is my Buster. He had his entire head stuffed in a whole box of Cheezits he had stolen when I was making that vid.

No, I think Olbermann still wins.
tommuck on January 16, 2008 at 8:23 PM
I’d rather leave my wife with OJ or my kids with that bucket-guy than either of them with Olbermann.
Tzetzes on January 16, 2008 at 8:25 PM
If it’s that cold, then what’s this guy trying to hide with the cannister?
thejackal on January 16, 2008 at 8:32 PM
huhhh what the ..? why did i watch this?
custer on January 16, 2008 at 8:34 PM
thought they would mention shrinkage
mikeyboss on January 16, 2008 at 8:38 PM
Kinda looked a little like Henry Waxman…
Zorro on January 16, 2008 at 8:41 PM
Exactly. Naked guy? Barrel? Yellow? I saw two lovely young ladies and nothing else.
Jaibones on January 16, 2008 at 8:49 PM
I thought it was Michael Moore.
Good looking dog.
RedWinged Blackbird on January 16, 2008 at 8:51 PM
Odd that the naked moron chose to display his shortcomings on the MSNBC channel instead any of the others. Aren’t they lucky.
No point, just a thought.

Ted Kennedy, maybe?

About 39°F for the high today in Vegas…..if bucket man was at a football game okay, but this???
TwinkietheKid on January 16, 2008 at 10:15 PM
In order to make the story stronger the guy in the barrel is actually an MSNBC plant.
tazmebro on January 16, 2008 at 10:25 PM
Well, when your primary audience are far-left women and beta males, maybe the Hot News Chick isn’t your magic strategy.
Merovign on January 16, 2008 at 11:18 PM
It gets cold in Vegas?
Janet was cute.
She made watching that clip bearable.

Since the scene was of a chilly day, I remembered this joke one of my great aunts told when I was young – perhaps 6 to 8 years of age …
Question:
Do you sleep in your bear (bare) skin?
Answer: Yes.
Comment: That’s funny. I usually feel cold and have to wear Pajamas and several blankets.
Note: It works better when spoken by voice, as the sound of the word “bear” and “bare” are similar, and make the joke work.
William2006 on January 17, 2008 at 4:00 AM
Because that barrel is solid.
Shy Guy on January 17, 2008 at 5:12 AM
Oh wow! 20’s and 30’s in Vegas!
Wimps! Wussies! Come on out to Chicago this weekend, where we are going to be sitting in the MINUS 20’s! Then tell me how cold it is out there in Sin City!

This reminds me of a month ago when AP posted the AOL “Leave ‘Don’t Tase Me Bro’ Alone!” clip. He called it “the end of civilization”. Not because of the content of the clip, itself, but that we recognized all of the insipid characters in the clip.
Yet it was AP who introduced us to them in the first place.
Now we have a little OJ wrap-up, and, just for a little comic relief, they talk about the guy in the background who’s actually wearing a BARREL, like some kind of 1950’s Disney cartoon. The studio gal even says, “We don’t usually do this”.
So, we’re having a lighthearted moment focusing on some intriguing character, and what do we get?
Olbermann only the second biggest lunatic on MSNBC now
A fun, lighthearted little moment and he brands her a lunatic.
Draw your own conclusions.

That’s what I was thinking. I grew up in MN, where it’s not unusual to be that cold for about a month straight. I’m in Cincinnati now and people think it’s freezing when it drops below 40. I think the city would shut down if it went much below zero.

You stole my line before I had a chance to use it.
srhoades on January 17, 2008 at 8:51 AM
It’s cold?
Really?
I’m sitting here on our beach, at our mansion in Kauai, Hawaii, sipping some ice cold sweet tea, while my wife is sunning herself in the nude, and our children are making sand castles on the beach. Our family friend, Manuel Barrueco, Internationally famous classical guitarist, is performing for us here on our deck. Later we will go to Maui where we will be guests of our friend, Ke’a'li’i Reichel, Hawaiian culture and Hula historian, and vocalist/musician for a concert on the beach in Lahaina.
Afterwards we will stay in our condo in Wailea. Tomorrow we’ll head over to Hana, Maui, and stay a few days in our other mansion there.
Right now, Christie Brinkley, a guest for the weekend, is playing volley ball in her bikini with our neighbor on our volley ball court, while Christie’s children play with our children in the sand on the beach.
My wife and our close friend, Gabrielle Union, will be scuba diving together later with our children. They will probably take our helicopter up for some sight seeing later also.
Excuse me …..
Okay,
Some surfers just invited me to join them over on Oahu on the North Shore later today. I’d better wax down my surfboard and get our boat ready and make our way over there.
I’ll send you all a post card later.
Would anyone wish that I send one of my private jets to bring you over to stay in our guest house for a few days, free of charge?
Take care for now.
William
Oh. I just woke up from dreaming I was super wealthy and owned property in the Hawaiian Islands, and that some world famous classical guitarist with the most exquisite tone production and technical skill, a beautiful model, a beautiful actress, and a great Hawaiian musicians were all hanging out together.
Hey, I don’t even know how to surf.
I’ve got to go and shovel some snow now.
Good bye.
