[Husker] For those throwing a party

[Tom Risor]

While I agree that celebrating failure is not classy and probably not  
the "Nebraska Way" (which I interpret as quiet dignity) SP brought  
this down on himself by not conducting himself in the "Nebraska  
Way".  His intentions are irrelevant.  His results have been  
devastating.

I would throw a party if it wasn't a Monday and I didn't have to work  
for 4 more days this week.  As is, I'm celebrating him getting fired  
as he should never have been hired, not his failure nor his good  
intentions.

Just like with my Harley, if you have to ask why I use Macs, you  
probably wouldn't understand.
