No One is Amused by Your Little Pranks
Saturday, March 13, 2010 
Panic gripped Georgia on Saturday when a pro-government television station broadcast a fake report that Russian tanks had entered the capital and President Mikhail Saakashvili had been killed.
Imedi TV introduced the report as an “imitation of possible events,” but the warning was lost on many viewers as mobile phone networks crashed and residents of Tbilisi rushed into the streets.
The report thrust the ex-Soviet neighbors back to August 2008, when Russia crushed an assault by U.S. ally Georgia on the rebel region of South Ossetia in a five-day war and sent tanks to within 28 miles of Tbilisi.
Someone is hiding from the boss today; someone else is wondering where all of their bright ideas have led them. Still, others are wondering why they ever complained about Fox News. Do you think this goes on the resume? Or does it come off the resume? Does it go on the version of the resume that you send out when you don’t care if they hire you? It’s a conundrum, isn’t it?
