True Story

On the radio on NPR yesterday morning a correspondent began a story with the artificial radio-guy tone of voice and completely broke character in the middle because of is own exasperation. He sighed heavily, let a little of himself leak out, and then resumed the plastic radio voice like it never happened. It went a little something like this:

"And in economic news... (sigh) this recession thing is getting old... President Obama has announced blah blah blah-- "

Obviously, it didn't really end "blah blah blah, but I stopped listening at that point because I was laughing too hard.
