This update to The Dead Pool brought to you by a boring conference call.
Unlike most of my posts, this one has no premeditated concept. I just figured that so many of you struggle to make it through the day without a post from The Dead Pool and the Vinster. And yes, that is without question [...]

Is it mildly disconcerting to anyone else that the President’s inauguration is being advertised like MTV’s Spring Break? I’m waiting for George Stephenopolis to get on the TV with a gem like: “And right before the President’s inaugural address, Budweiser will present the Wet Business Suit Contest live from the Rose Garden.
