Essay 1502


The all-new 2007 MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• The King of Jordan thinks Israel stinks — literally. Jordanian King Abdullah II griped about the bovine odors from a livestock facility that drift across the border to his palace. Israeli officials ordered the facility operators to get their shit together and clean up the animal waste that had piled up. No comment yet from the King of Burger King.

• Busta Rhymes is busting up folks again. The rapper allegedly attacked one of his drivers the day after Christmas. The employee claimed he approached Rhymes to collect money he was owed, and received a whupping instead. Rhymes is allegedly out of the country, but authorities intend to charge the artist with third-degree assault upon his return. You don’t want to be the driver who picks him up at the airport.

• CBS’ 60 Minutes has no immediate plans to replace the late Ed Bradley, opting to spread his responsibilities across a number of reporters and producers. Bryant Gumble is probably whining and weeping in a corner somewhere.
