Piggish Behavior in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• Residents of a Texas suburb are unhappy over plans to erect a Mosque in their community, and one moron’s threatening to hold pig races on Fridays to piss off the Muslims. Another neighbor launched an anti-Islamic Web site tracking terrorist activity. The pig-race guy said he feels obligated to proceed with his scheme because, “I would be like a total idiot if I didn’t. I’d be the laughingstock now because I’ve gone too far.” It’s safe to bet he appeared totally idiotic long before hatching the concept.
• Regarding the Draft FCB/Wal-Mart fiasco, the New York Times wrote, “But a year later, that executive, Julie Roehm, is out of a top job at Wal-Mart amid allegations, which she denies, that she accepted gifts from ad agencies, maintained a personal relationship with a subordinate and showed favoritism toward potential vendors.” Wow. A client was wined and dined by advertising agency representatives. Somebody call the CIA pronto. As for the allegations that she’s involved with a coworker, Roehm needs to get in line — behind nearly every key executive in the industry.
