    The very definition of professional

    Ye Gods! I seriously doubt that I could pull this off. The woman is a God. Hard core.

    "But her demeanor never changed and the senior anchor, who has been with IBC24 for its entire nine-year history, kept reporting even as images of the vehicle and blurred photos of victims appeared on the screen."

    Indian anchor learns husband died in story she's reporting

    (CNN)Supreet Kaur was anchoring IBC24 news broadcast in India Saturday morning when word broke of a deadly accident.

    She told the audience about the details -- three people had died and two were injured when an SUV and truck collided in Pithora.

    Wearing a mask with your nose sticking out is like wearing a condom on your testicles.

    When out walking, look out for PROBlems. You know: maskless Plague Rats On Bicycles who blow past you without giving you time to get out of the way.

    Ah, CONServatives, the Masters of Projection (MOPs). With CONServatives, every accusation is a confession. Weird, that.

    You see that sort of thing in combat when the mission keeps going even as you take casualties.

    And in the theater. "The show must go on."

    Come to think of it, they are often the same thing.

    Except in combat (and for this reporter) it isn't funny. People are dying.

    I pissed guys off in my unit by keeping a very calm voice when the SHTF and medivacs and artillery support had to be called in. They thought that I didn't care about the guys we lost and were losing.

    Wat. Personal tragedy in the theater is funny? (What the word "Except" implies, in common usage.)
