BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, a programming note: Mr. Snerdley has been suspended for the day. He is, as you know, our call screener. Snerdley was sent home for the day earlier this morning. He will be back tomorrow if everything goes according to plan. There were two problems. He presented a call to me on the program last Friday involving human waste movements, clearly beneath the quality and decorum of this program. Snerdley thought it would be funny because it was about a South Park incident in which the measurements were said to be in Courics. But the caller never got there because I, maintaining the class and decorum known for this program, interceded.

Secondly, you might remember the call from Lynn last Friday. How would you describe it, H.R.? What was she doing? She made a play for me; she was coming on to me, make no bones about it. I learned, ladies and gentlemen, over the weekend, that Snerdley gave her a call. This is just intolerable. It's funny, but I have to put my foot down on this. This is the second time we've had to suspend him in the course of this program, which is not too many times. The first time was when I saw him shouting, and arguing, and yelling with a caller in there. You have to nip these things in the bud when you see them happening. You gotta lay down the law. You can't let the line get crossed, because then the line gets blurred, and then the line gets invisible.

What is this all about? I can read the transcript, but does anyone know the rest of the story?

[angcat]

I think Rush was joking.

[cripplecreek]

Snerdly suspended? Bet he dropped a 15 Couric load when he found out.

[Old Sarge]

Snerdley thought it would be funny because it was about a South Park incident in which the measurements were said to be in Courics.

That's HILARIOUS!

[JennysCool]

Rush is always giving Snerdley grief for one thing or another! It's all in good fun.

[Oklahoma]

Bo probably needed off for a root canal.

Rush mentioned Snerdley's suspension in another segment today:

It just makes me mad, because I'm not going to be able to shepherd the project myself. I can't send Snerdley up to do it, 'cause he's gotta screen calls when he gets back from his suspension.

[digger48]

You know, I’m ashamed to say that I’ve seen that episode twice, and until Rush mentioned it today, I never made the Couric connection. My mind was stuck on Kerik.

[Holicheese]

Thats impossible. I think the human limit is a 12 Couric duece.

I watched that episode last night. I loved Bono walking through all the Africans. I bet its very accurate!

[Chickensoup]

If this is true...Snerd will have a tell-all book in the works...

But I suspect it is not...

[Osage Orange]

Obviously Rush was "tongue in cheeking" it......

[Uri’el-2012]

Isn't Bo Snerdley a FReeper or Lurker?

[uptoolate]

Also came back from a break and and said that he just took a call from the “Call Screener’s Union” demanding that Snerdley be reinstated.

[theDentist]

Bet he dropped a 15 Couric load

For those of you unsure about the Couric measurement system, a 15 Couric load is about the size of a brick.

[EveningStar]

Combined ping to the South Park Ping List and Tard Ping List

[mnehring]

Snerdly is Rush’s strait man (from the old Laurel and Hardy gags)... he can use Snerdly as the butt of jokes or if he wants to make a point from another perspective. I doubt he was really suspended.

[mnehring]

He is a Freeper, so is HR.

[mnehring]

I believe a Couric is equal to 2.5 Rathers.

[aShepard]

????Is there a real Bo Snerdly???

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

We’ve changed our vocabulary around our home to include a “bono movement”. My husband and son can discuss the courics involved but I’ll remain more ladylike in that regard. ;^)
