Supply your own “heck of a job” punchline

We’re in the middle of prepping “Lunch at Michael’s” but in the meantime, a little Thanksgiving irony for you: FEMA’s Michael Brown is starting a consulting firm on disaster preparedness.

Here’s the part that almost makes you feel for him a little: “My wife, children and my grandchild still love me. My parents are still proud of me.” Until you remember this: “Restaurants are getting busy…we need time to eat in leisure, dammit!” and “Sir, you might want to try rolling up your sleeves to so it looks like you’re actually working” and “Can I quit now?” Then, you know, there’s not much sympathy.
