Cunningham Fired at LVEDC

After being caught fraternizing with a bottom-feeding blogger on Friday afternoon, LVEDC CEO Don Cunningham has been summarily terminated.

"We have standards, damn it!" explained Board member L. Charles Marcon. "We could put up with the Springsteen concerts, but this is too much."

In another emergency meeting, the National Museum of Industrial History, known as the NMIH and not to be confused with the NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health) has hired Cunningham at a salary of $5,000,000 per year.

"Let's see what Morganelli does now!" said Board spokesperson L. Charles Marcon.

Some idiots will actually believe this, but I couldn't resist.

Peg Ferraro actually did take that picture. But I fired her as my intern because I'm much more handsome than I appear in that picture. They say the camera adds ten pounds. "You must have eaten ten cameras," Cunningham told me.

I was sleeping soundly Friday morning when suddenly, the bottom-feeding blogger beacon began to shine from South Side Bethlehem. Governor Corbett was coming to town. Cunningham, Peg and a host of other big shots were there.

I hopped into my $500 Blogger-Mobile and made it. I was the only person there who hadn't shaved. ... Or showered.

The Governor's press person allowed me to remain even though I had no credentials except for the "Award Winning Broadcast Journalist" card I had a friend make up for me a few months ago. A state trooper with the Guv' was giving me the "I'll take you down to Chinatown" glare, and i don't blame him. But Corbett and the Sands CEO were cool as hell.

I'll have the straight story later today.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
