    Blacksmiths probably felt much the same way 100 years ago. #newspapers

    I had an aunt who worked for Reader's Digest when I was a kid and she said it was a great place to work. I only remember a lot (a whole lot) of shark stories or shpwrecked at night stories...that kind of thing.

    i never thought much about reader's digest always being in my grandparents' house until i went back as an adult and read it -- really fringe rightwing lunacy in between the "clever" anecdotes

    So do the layoffs at CN mean that they're going to unload a couple of dozen of those VF "Contributing Editors" who get paid a handsome sum each month so their name can appear in that clusterfuck on the masthead but never ever write?

    @Swordfish: Can you be more specific on the range of the handsome sum? I've always wondered. Also, excellent use of the word clusterfuck.

    @Swordfish: All of the magazines have been getting rid of contributing editors for the past year--just not renewing contracts. In some cases they leave the people on the masthead for various reasons.

    The metaphor is perfection -- the Paterson, N.J. bull escaped from the slaughterhouse. The Wall Street bull won't be so fortunate.

    The important thing is that the bull is now safe, unharmed, and on its way to the slaughterhouse.

    In reply to Pay No Attention to the Bulls Literally Rampaging Through Urban Streets
    After a presentation that included a video about "the world-class brands at NBC Universal," a host of the breakfast, Bethenny Frankel of "The Real Housewives of New York City" on Bravo, narrated a tour of the displays. But it was hard to hear her over the increasingly loud chatter of attendees who preferred schmoozing to being pitched.

    Anything that can drown out that bitch's incessant yammering whine has my vote. 5 minutes of her grating voice is like being in the Witness Protection Program and being forced to live in a dressing room of a Florida Burdine's, circa 1987.

    Perhaps we should introduce the bull to the Chelsea clemency cow.

    Police tried to corral the bull by lassoing a rope around the animal's neck, but it dragged officers down the street instead.

    Wow. Police are shockingly stupid.

    -Okay Vinnie, now what da fuck you think we should do with this.
    -Well, let's get a rope, okay? I can tie a slip knot.
    -You can tie a what?
    -A slip knot. Fuck.
    -Okay.
    -Okay.
    -So now what?
    -Well.... now we go put this rope around the neck of a 1400 pound animal.
