Cheap shots with a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• OK, this one is too obvious, but what the hell. Vice President Dick Cheney accidentally shot a fellow hunter during a weekend hunting trip. Cheney was allegedly aiming at a quail. Unfortunately, not former Vice President Dan Quayle. The good news — the accidental-shooting victim was a high-priced lawyer.
• Another Los Angeles inmate died Sunday during continuing prison riots between Black and Hispanic gang members. The fights have been taking place regularly since an initial melee on February 4 (see Essay 397). Maybe it’s time to call in sharpshooter Dick Cheney.
• People with epilepsy have voiced outrage over a recent episode of the CBS sitcom “Two and a Half Men.” Apparently, Charlie Sheen’s character faked being epileptic to avoid a wedding. What zany hijinks! Actually, most folks would go into a seizure to realize Sheen was still employed as an actor.
That quale-joke just made me snort orange juice through my nose. Thanks!
