Not That I Am, But If I Were...
Now that I got that one out, in other news--
Speaking of hurricanes, this man is crazy:
And while we're there, I don't want to sound like Mr. Pervy, but can NBC give Michelle Kosinski a desk job? I can't sleep at night knowing she's risking her life covering hurricanes. (Now, I know she will always be remembered for Canoe-gate, and that since then she's been mostly covering missing girls in Aruba, but she's back on the disaster-front, and I'm not happy about it).
After 35 years, I've finally found my brand:
And finally, here's a picture of someone's shoulder. He works with a friend. He has a Jimmy Hendrix tattoo:

I always think of the people they send out into the storms as the extras who get offed in an action show.
How bad would the anchors and producers feel if one of them was just blown away by a hurricane, and they died for no particular reason?
"Yeah, as you can see, it's windy out here in this giant windstorm, cold and snowy in this snowstorm, slippery on this mudslide, hot near this wildfire, etc. etc. etc." ...Thanks for demonstrating this, stupid people.
But a genuine Thank You to you, PitS, for linking to that clip, because I'd forgotten how hilarious it was.
Some people can drown in ankle deep water you know.
Did Hendrix have a Hendrix tattoo?
*Jimi
Dan, oh no... reigniting the canoe controversy was the last thing I wanted to do. Michell, forgive me?
SJ, you don't want to mess with New Jersey alligators. Oh, and that Hendrix tattoo, the more famous Hendrix could have had that one on his shoulder. If he were into ironic statements. And if there's one thing we know about Hendrix, is that he made a lot of post-modern ironic statements.
Woozie, actually there's a direct correlation between the number of liquor stores per square mile and Jimmy Hendrix tattoos. Maybe in your fancy Ohio, people like Jimi Hendrix, but over here it's all about Jimmy.
I think they draw straws and the loser gets stuck out in the hurricane/wild fire/end of the world situation.
but my guest post is ruined. How sad-now I have to find another amazing story to cover. Any storms coming our way?
That canoe gate thing is almost enough to make me wonder why I don't have cable!!! But then I remember that I already have almost four channels and it's too many...
Funny on the "windy in this windstorm" literaldan!!!!! :-)
I will say that although I had my little hand crank emergency radio during the hurricane, even though I almost NEVER watch TV, I was itching to get to a television set. I've been through flood after flood living in Houston and it still never fails to fascinate me, whether I'm standing around outside watching the bayou rise or watching it on tv. Internet & radio just are not the same in those cases.
He has a misspelled Jimi Hendrix tattoo. I have a tattoo or four, but if I were going to have script I would definitely check my spelling.
I'm so glad you've found your TP for life. Why should it have to take so long? I mean why can't they just tell you these things up front instead of wasting half your life looking for DiamondWeave?
B, maybe the viewers should vote on that. I'm sure there are some people at NBC who could be really good at risky coverage. Personally, I think David Shuster truly has a face for disaster.
Honey, metaphorical storms? It might be fair that after I professed my love for Michelle Kosinski and Joel McHale, you can write a post about your boyfriend.
Jill, I'm going to have to erase everyone's memory. Michelle will not be remembered for riding a canoe. Nor for tracking Aruba-girl. No. She will get her Pulitzer one day.
Man, you don't know that. Maybe he was truly inspired by the wedding photography of James Hendrix. Out of all of your tattoos, you want to tell me you don't have the name of your wedding photographer?
Nanny, finally someone comments on my life-changing discovery. Really, that's the problem with Capitalism. People should have only one TP brand. Like in Mother Russia. And they should stand in line to get it. And they should wear only gray clothes. And be existentialists.
You want to have sex with the talk soup dude?
I was going to note the misspelling of Jimi's name but evidently you have quite a few astute commenters. ;)
Looks like somebody said "Hey, go find me a newsgal that looks like Cameron Diaz!"--because she really does.
Yeah, I'll lighten up on the spelling of "Jimi" also! :P
Ben, oh HELL NO! Gross! Yuck! Blaaah! But if I were...
Dusty, hey, it's not my tattoo. I can't believe putting this picture backfired and now people think I can't spell! I'm ruined!
Daisy, I will not stand for that! My blogging reputation will not be tarnished just because I know someone who knows someone with a Jimmy Hendrix tattoo! If he had a Jimi Hendrix tattoo, I would have spelled it Jimi. This is an outrage. And anyone daring to question my spelling from now on will hear from my team of lawyers. I will survive!
I totally understand your outrage at being misunderstood and lumped in with those you are mocking. It's happened to the best of us (i.e. me).
I will stand by your side, shotgun in hand, until people see reason. Of course I'm biased, but maybe a footnote would help clear it up?
I have never been misunderstood like that. Not since my Pay Per Post debacle.
From now on I'll be clear. This is David Shuster. This is Beeker. They are two different people.
She lost serious babe points for that canoe stunt. Big time!
Thanks for posting a pic of my sexy boyfriend. And if you were, I would have to fight you for him, because I don't think he is...though his wedding ring has been missing for five episodes now.
Ricardo, you know what, Greta Van Susteren can walk in the mud, but I don't want my Michelle to catch one of them New Jersey diseases.
Sarah, you noticing that is a little weird. But of course I'll be looking at that next time. Oh, and his wife's name is Sarah.
Yeah, of course I notice the ring finger of the guy I have a guilty crush on, whose wife happens to share my name, AND he used to play football in the PAC-10 for the Huskies. Oh, did I just cross the path into stalker? Shoot!
You know what? My Statcounter tells me Google is bringing over visitors searching for joel mchale and wedding ring because of your comment. Crazy. I'm currently number 18 for that search. Apparently you're not alone!
Well, those 18 are gonna have some competition from me if he does get a divorce. The man is goofy hot and I love it.
FYI don't be so discouraged. The last election was won in a single state basically. That state was Ohio. In Michigan, we wear "Fuck Ohio T shirts for that reason and because we hate Ohio State.
Obama is winning in Ohio right now. And the States that McCain is taking GWB took by way larger margins. Just saying...
Sarah, is he goofy hot? For me it was just that he was funny. I guess you and I just want different things in our men.
Aimee, I know. I'm trying to avoid the word Landslide, but things do look pretty good.
