Andy Rooney is more of an ass than me
I caught 60 minutes tonight for first time in about five or ten years. You know, that show with Barbara Walt- oh no, the one with the ticking. I think it’s supposed to be a clock or something.
I was enticed to watch because of an advertisement of a Tiger Woods piece that was slated to delve deep into the personal life of Tiger. The interview sucked. Tiger didn't release a whole lot of information. He did however talk about his learning centers for minority children that are popping up all over the world. That was interesting I guess. If only we all could be poster children like Tiger.
Anyway, I hung around for the weekly editorial by Andy Rooney that has been going on since fall of the Roman Empire, and Andy was as pissy as ever.
Rooney went on a rant about girl scout cookies for some unexplainable reason. He talked about how it only costs them $1.25 to buy the cookies and they sell them for $4.25, implying that girl scouts are involved in some criminal conspiracy to rip off the American public at large. He also boo-hooed about all the chemical ingredients, and claimed that he would ask the next girl trying to sell him cookies if she could explain to him what partially hydrogenated palm oil was.
Damn Andy. You're one ruthless, hard-nosed son of a bitch. Honestly, I wouldn't even say that. These poor girls are trying to make a few bucks for their damn scout troop so they can pitch tents and paddle their friggin' canoes around some lake. That stuff ain't cheap.
Of course I may in fact end up as heartless as Andy Rooney, but in the meantime I don't think I'll be watchin' the clock in anticipation.

Dude, that was a funny post, mother humper.
Yeah, I think you should probably just hit the grocery store if you want the most bang for your cookie buck. That's not really the point of Girl Scout cookies. There are only like three of the coconut ones in each box, though.
