For the first time since I started my job, I have to video my town's republican committee meeting

[graywarrior]

I'm considering calling in sick that day (or leaving sick, coz I will surely be gagging up chunks listening to that bullshit)

1. Put the wadders on...

[anigbrowl]

2. I think you should go, it'll likely be educational

If nothing else it may tip you off to which local persons you'd prefer not to do business with in future.

[graywarrior]

3. I wouldn't be able to keep the absolute disgust off my face

[Historic NY]

4. think of it as intel on the opposition.

[zonkers]

5. Keep your ears and eyes open. A hot mike can be your friend.

[guitar man]

9. totally

If I was tasked with the gig I'd have a couple sennheiser shotgun mics covering the room and be looking for someone's "macacca" moment ;)

[thunder rising]

6. I took a job at Boca Java (a Limpballs advertiser) ... that lasted a month. There really is a depth

to my hypocrisy. I just couldn't shut up.

But take off the Dean shirt for a couple of hours, you'll do fine.

7. Bummer! What u can do though:

A) Prior to going, make sure u consume groceries that are edible, twice (twinkies maybe?)
B) Wear hip boots instead of waders..Ya might want to moon a few folks, and waders just take all the fun out of it
C) Get an appropriate t-shirt...the one with Sarah Phailin sporting the "Joker" face should suffice.
D) Use the camera to zoom in on slack jaws, sloping foreheads, and open zippers.
E) breast feed a Freddie Kruger doll
F) thumb through copy's of Penthouse and Playgirl while the camera is locked on the tripod....

[graywarrior]

14. I'm keeping one camera on one person the entire meeting

[Po_d Mainiac]

19. sounds like a future you-tube classic

[booley]

8. Why not go?

First off, you're recording it. You aren't participating

Secondly, it can clue you in to all the evil stuff they plan. Cons are incredibly honest when they think everyone agrees with them.

[Blue Owl]

10. be sure to record all the Macacca moments

and any misspelled signage...

[rocktivity]

11. Definitely call in sick--it wouldn't be as though you were lying.

Better yet, yell out, "You lie!" You'll be on your way home in minutes!

:puke:

15. LOL! You've convinced me.

I shall go to work that night!

[NightWatcher]

13. go all "Colbert" on them, get enlightened crowd shots

if a nose is picked, make sure it's on the record.

Also, tilt the camera ever so slightly to one sight to make it appear as though the people are slightly irregular

[graywarrior]

17. !

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:


We're upgrading our system to a new server and going totally digital and we, at the station, are expecting major FUBAR for several weeks, so they may not even get broadcasted.

[blogslut]

16. Are you kidding?

You'll get to put their insanity on record. Think about it!

[graywarrior]

18. I'll just bring a puke bucket with me.

[Po_d Mainiac]

21. Why a pail??.....better effect if you use someones lap...ala Bush Sr.

[Emit]

20. graywarrior, just go for the comedic relief

:D
