Tamre: I will remember to bring a camera tomorrow
me: oh yeah
that’s bullshit!
WTF?
Tamre: yeah.
she worked at an assisted living facility
Sent at 9:41 AM on Wednesday
me: She should sue
she probly could
Tamre: i hope she does.
she didn’t deserve to get fired
Sent at 9:44 AM on Wednesday
me: She didn’t
she could at least take it to trial
or threaten to
and it would make national news
and they’d probably let her stay
of course, at that point, she probably wouldnt want to
but maybe she could get a book deal out of it

Tamre: out of something she doesn’t remember?
sweet.
i could write like, 10 books.

Got a message from the reader known as The Oak: “Just be happy that this isn’t your mom.”

If you haven’t heard about Lois Feldman, the mom who got so blasted at an Iowa football game drinking wine she doesn’t remember having sex with a 26 year old in the men’s bathroom, or being busted by police for it, where have you been? You must not peruse the Gawker network often. This kinda stuff is the biggest news to them.

I really WANT to say I think the outcry about this mom who, gasp, has actually stayed married through this thing wouldn’t be such an enduring one if it had happened to a man. But then, I remember how stupid it sounded when people dismissed Palin’s criticism as sexism, when really, it was wrought by her own stupidity. In the end, I think that’s what’s really going on here.
