Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Skinny dipping with the dog is the part that kills me.

Pergunta: is there a presidential news conference newly scheduled for tonight at 8:30 Eastern?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yes, shrift.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

is there a presidential news conference newly scheduled for tonight at 8:30 Eastern?

Yes. In which the president will blame high gas prices on radical environmentalists.

Or so I've heard.

Yep. I'll be tuning in to watch the national media roll over and bark whenever Bush tells them to.

Well, the press conference is certainly not going to be reality tv.

Hmph. Well. That will most likely delay CSI, huh? Which means I can stay at work a little longer and oh GOD I can't believe I just typed that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

shrift, I read somewhere that tonight is gearing up for sweeps, and networks weren't sure if they were going to air the conference.

No idea where I ... right ... IMDB:

President Bush's decision to hold a news conference at 8:30 p.m. tonight (Thursday) throws a monkey wrench into the networks' machinery as they gear up for the first night of the May sweeps. The news conference would come: halfway through the scheduled one-hour edition of CBS's Survivor: Palau and would likely run into CSI: Crime Scene Investigation; during NBC's Will & Grace, which was to have featured guest appearances by Alan Arkin, Debbie Reynolds and Lee Majors -- and probably into The Apprentice at 9:00 p.m.; after the first half hour of ABC's movie, Sweet Home Alabama; and halfway through Fox's The O.C. By midmorning today, only Fox had committed to airing the news conference live.
