He was invited and turned down the offer, and if you watched Rachel Maddow last night, you know how highly incensed she was at what she thought was a terrible snub, while her friend from "The Beast" tried to assure her it was just an old man wanting his privacy and his own remote control to watch the game. Oh, re. parenthetical expressions, I say avoid them at all costs if there's a question within a mile of them....OK?

They should hold at least three meetings that rob everyone of time. After they hash out a decision, they should put it in writing and submit it to everyone who has absolutely no say in the matter. Then you should decide what you really want and put it in the official JordanCornblog style book. Afterwards, any diversion from your rule will be grounds for termination.
