JFP reporter and curmudgeon Adam Lynch just called in from Oxford; he was standing next to the Fox News. I was worried that he was waiting for Sean Hannity (he had mentioned in passing earlier in the week that he’d like to punch him.) I asked if that was what he was up to, reminding him that he cannot violate the law while representing the JFP. No, he’s not going to punch him, he assured me. “You kind of talked me out off it; chances are, he’s not here anyhow,” Adam said.

Somehow I think he’ll restrain himself because he knows that when you bail him out of jail, you’ll make him wish he stayed behind bars. 😛
