> making a joke out of a disaster. I went a little to the overzealous side in my reply, but I guess my main point is this: while still tasteless to make jokes about it, the scale of the disaster in the plane crash isn't even close to that of the tsunami. Doesn't mitigate the fact that people lost their lives, but consider this, Howard didn't crack jokes about the WTC on or after 9/11, neither has he attempted to make light of the tsunami (I listen almost every day for at least an hour, Seattle radio really blows). Yet he still gets mentioned in the same breath when someone else does...
> Actually I could care less about Janet's breast. I have two of my own. yeah, pretty much true for everybody, but the FCC specifically cited Stern in comments about "BreastGate," and I have yet to be able to figure out why. FWIW, I hear Howard's name invoked whenever someone does something tastless on the radio and gets burned for it. As if there is some sort of causal relationship, that without Howard, no one would air tasteless material, and that just isn't true! :-) -- will "If my life weren't funny, it would just be true; and that would just be unacceptable." - Carrie Fisher ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:145639 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
