Oh, wurra, wurra, I fear me O'Lbermann won't be a-showin' up this night.

'Ere's a picture of 'im wearin' a green tie. I'm fearin' this may be as close as we come to seein' him tonight. Or this week.

Sure, 'n' if I dinna 'ear a commercial for Countdown durin' the lad Tweety's show tonight--and, faith 'n' begorrah, it was sayin' somethin' I canna recall any other sayin' afore.

It was sayin' that "Countdown" would be explorin' certain subjects tonight (namely, Dems and the road to Pa.).

Ya 'eard me right. Countdown. Not our lad Keith.

In other words, I'm thinkin' MSNBC is makin' a small step i' the direction a' no longer pitchin' the blarney with us...as in, admittin' we won't see our lad Keith tonight righ' inna commercial.

If he do show up, sure 'n' me eyes'll fall clean out of me 'ead.

The timin's full a' peat moss, but 'tis mos' likely they promised Keith his 'oliday weeks afore makin' this programmin' donnybrook, an' t'wouldn' be fair t' go changin' it on 'im now.

Sure, an' I 'ope ya 'ave fun, Keith. 'Ow'd my Tribe look yesterday? Eh???

1. OK...poor Keith.

You really ARE going above and beyond the call of duty.

We :loveya: you for it, too.
