Since last week’s Cut This with the cat wearing the fruit helmet was so popular, I decided to follow it up with a Wasting Time featuring a cat. Check out the video and find the answer to the age old question: who would win in a fight, a cat or a printer?
Cute cat, and ruthless printer. I have days where I want to fight my printer. This cat has the right idea.
I know you’ve all thought to yourselves at one point or another, “who would win in a fight: Geraldo Rivera or a hurricane?” Since Geraldo has a long history of thinking he’s a tough guy when it comes to hurricanes and other severe weather, it’s no surprise he attempted to go toe-to-toe with Hurricane Ike. So, for this edition of Wasting Time we produce the evidence showing ultimately who wins.
There you have it, even though Geraldo sports a pretty tough mustache, he’s no match for the weakest wave from a strong hurricane. Tune in next year when Geraldo looks to redeem himself by taking on an earthquake, live from the fault line.
Dagger: The double-edged blade. We have built and launched this blog as an experiment, and test case for what might happen when we distill years of conversation into published material. It is our hope not to fire missives from the distance, but to get up close to each subject; so close that we might twist a blade in its side.
We will publish news, rumor, opinion, style, substance, informal correspondence. We are a group of like-minded writers, musicians, photographers and agitators living in and around Baltimore; we are The Dagger and you can’t mess with us.
