#1 Bwahahahaha - Do we have a picture of a clown with sad make-up looking over his shoulder at the camera?

#2 After the Mary Mapes memo scandal, Dan felt like a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs. His chances of a return to former glory were slim to none, and Slim was leavin' town. Not even Kenneth knew the frequency. So Dan decided to hang up his spurs. As they say in Texas, "Don't taunt the alligator until after you cross the creek."

Courage.

#3 he would develop and be the host of a weekly interview program on a high-definition television channel known as HDNet.

Looking forward to it, Dan. It'll be like watching Willie Mays play for the Mets when he couldn't make the throws in from centerfield.

#4 throws a sad sack look back. Should have hung it up sooner, Dan. Now everyone knows that all of your work was basically the same trash as the National Guard episode. Bad thing for Dan is his legacy really is a representation of his life's work - biased, mean-spirited, bogus reporting.

#6 Austin paper had article that Dan has a 3 year contract from none other than Mark Cuban (Mavs owner who owns HDNet). Dan's still studing it!
