ck: That announcement is a pip, isn't it? Ethnicity? Hell, it's ye olde racial 
divides--and a blatant revelation that "multiculturalism" has its limits. White 
(sorry, European), black (African American), Asian (yellow faded a long time 
ago), and Hispanic--which is, I suppose, the rationale for the word"ethnic." 

But where do the Arabs and Sephardic Jews fit? No "Survivor" for them?  

Wonder if the network, whatever it is, will get away with this. More to the 
point, will the audience love it?

  Bush lost Iraq.  
  Bush lost New Orleans.  
  And now, on his watch, Pluto is gone. 
   
  Is there no end to his incompetence?  
  Or is Lawrence going to blame this on Leftists?
