   It’s Bourke, BTW. It even says so in the blurb beneath your head. Whoever wrote the head could get a job at the Indo.

   Emdy know if Bourke is from Kerry?

      Nice edit, but you missed the pic caption. Tnis is just like the Indo…

   Hmm… who for Fionnan’s job? Drennan or Downing one would think.

   No doubt mixed metaphor’s Drennan will fill Sheahan’s shoes, after all, Indo journalists are all interchangeable as they all chant from same hymn book.

      They write by numbers for aul Denis

      Whenever Drennan speaks on Newstalk I bite my fist. Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s Metaphor Man!

      Looks perfectly good to me.
   2. Odis January 9, 2015 at 4:23 pm

      WTF? I’ve got filling cabinets like that where I work and they’re very nice and go with the magnolia walls.
      1. Spaghetti Hoop January 9, 2015 at 4:24 pm

         The mmmmmm was one of deliciousness not one of querying.

            Thank Heavens – I thought my tasteful office had suddenly become passé.

    will be an interesting time during/after the next election when the editor of the Indo is married to a possible FF TD

    “This is the accounts department. Alright? The number bods. Do not be fooled by their job descriptions. They are absolutely mad, all of them.
    Especially that one. He’s mental. Not literally, that wouldn’t work. The last place you’d want someone like that is in accounts…”
14. Mr. T. January 9, 2015 at 1:00 pm

    Dreary looking work place. Reluctant applause.

    Beaker is being placed to lead the campaign for Fine Gael or any other centre right party will do, as long as they keep the left out of government.

    Expect cheap mud slinging from day one.
