Newsflash: Van Jones's Next Gig

Shortly after posting our poll on Van Jones's next gig, we received a tweet announcing Mr. Jones's plans. Mr. Jones intends to spend the rest of his life searching for the real 9/11 killers. The poll will remain in place, however, because real killer searching doesn't provide a steady income and we can think of at least one other acolyte who had to resort to other streams of revenue to provide for his loved ones.

Twitter update. Van Jones has secured an agent, presumably to assist him in hunting for the real 9/11 killers.

We Won't Have Van Jones to Kick Around Any More

Looks like a fifteen minute timer went off. Guess we have seen the last of Van Jones. Not so fast. Warhol did not foresee reality TV, infomercials, and the Internet. If Flava Flav, or Flavor Flav, or Flava Flave can reinvent a career that never was, Van Jones cannot be far behind.

I would like to say that we'll miss Van Jones but I have a suspicion he will be in our livingrooms and desktops in the very near future.
