"Greg’s campaign to be the most quoted man in news has been so successful that the Associated Press sent its staff a memo that essentially banned interviews with him. That hasn’t stopped Greg’s “career.” Individually, his quotes are utterly unremarkable, but, considered as a whole, they add up to a rather stunning body of work."

An ad starts to play at the beginning.
It cant be helped, or un-helped, dis-helped, dislodged... I cant dislodge it, would be closer to what I'm trying to say.
"I count the AP snub among my accomplishments".
How can I not like this guy?
Supply and demand.
Did I get him right?
He's 50 and he's a retired highway maintenance worker?
Disability welfare queen? Or are towns in Long Island generous with retirement benefits?
"He's 50 and he's a retired highway maintenance worker?"
Apparently, getting quoted a lot is really lucrative.
Lem, fix that mess - seriously, that ad on autoplay is annoying.
I don't know how to do that.
The plays automatically when Commenter Home is opened.
Very annoying.
Please disable.
Lem,
Just take it out as an imbed and put it in as a link.
Packer on being quoted:
"It made me feel like I accomplished something"
Really? What exactly? Other than having his name in print, what was it he'd "done"?
Nothing.
He has a strategy to go to big events, get noticed and then get interviewed.
What the effing hell for?
He adds nothing.
He does nothing, except get seen.
So we've got narcissist journalists who recognize a fellow narcissist and give his bland opinion.
A circle jerk of blah blah blah.
Our country is really full of shitty people already. Can't Mr. Packer move to Mexico or Canada and relieve our load of narcissist by one?
Then he'd have actually done something.
The man is an annoying Rupert Pupkin.
He's not nearly as annoying as his brother, Fudge.
""He's 50 and he's a retired highway maintenance worker?"
Where have you been? If he began work at 20, 30 years later it's hellooo retirement.
Flash blocker add-on keeps flash from starting unless you click on it.
Youtube included. If you want to actually follow a youtube playlist, make the first playing one full screen. Somehow that gets around flash blocker for the subsequent ones in the list.
Of course then it's full screen and you can't use the computer for anything else.
