News you can use:
American Airlines announces new fees effective with tickets purchases on or after June 15th. The fees include a $15 charge for a checked bag and increased rates for reservation services and pets traveling in the cabin. Exempt from the checked bag fee are members of American's frequent flyer programs, customers who buy full fare tickets, and those who are flying international, beyond Canada, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Hey, American, do you see my hand gesture? This is beer nuts, for sure. Charging for reservation services? And a checked bag? These are the foundation of air travel! Pretty soon we'll have to fly the damn planes ourselves to avoid a fee.
Senator John McCain will play host to three purported vice presidential running mates at his home in Arizona this weekend. Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney were invited, along with their spouses and twenty others, to the McCain compound in Sedona, AZ for the weekend. "It's purely social," a senior advisor to McCain stated. Can you imagine the ass kissing, back stabbing and overall posturing that will be going on? I wish I had a nickel for every time one of the wives at this deal thinks another one is being a B. I'd be loaded!
A new American Idol was crowned last night. In an effort to not spoil it for those who have yet to watch it on TiVo I will refrain from writing which David won.
News you can lose:
Denise Richards went on the Today show and refuted claims that she sent an email to ex-husband Charlie Sheen requesting his sperm for her third baby. Sheen claims that Richards sent an email asking him to be the donor, a claim that Richards flat out denies. She says the email was totally fabricated and that she doesn't want any of Charlie's boys. I says who cares?
Word of the Day:
cupidity: eager or excessive desire, especially for wealth
Have you heard? Cupid is full of cupidity, what with all his desire and money.
2 tips left at the bar:
Boy, between gas prices and airfare, looks like we're all going to have to stay the hell home for awhile.
This newscast was especially entertaining today. I'd be lost without While You Were at the Bar!
I appreciate your consideration, but even I know better than to have not watched the Finale of AI or expect to not find out the winner. (I was just upset that first time, because I normally know what sources to avoid when I'm behind, and I totally didn't expect an AI update from you, so I was blindsided!)
I agree, you are my news source; without you, I'd be so much more ignorant and out of touch.
