Have you seen what a decent Le Creuset set runs these days? Even the greediest of Griftersons wouldn't turn up a nose, at least not for a student apartment.

When they make the movie, the best scene will be where Chef Todd first discloses the graft, grift, and greed of McDaniels to the state Attorney General . . . who turns out to be some guy named Ken Cuccinelli. <i>Awkward!</i>

Casting suggestions, anyone? I figure DiCaprio for the Gov, and an over-the-top Julia Louis-Dreyfus as his harridan wife. Brad Pitt could be the Cooch.

<em>When an anonymous tip called in to the state’s hotline for waste and fraud claimed that Todd was wrongfully carting foodstuffs out of the governor’s kitchen</em>

How convenient that someone noticed that from the mansion's second story window, I would hazard to guess.

So, if they had just covered for this guy (like he was for them until they shit-canned him), they'd be sitting pretty; maybe trying to take down Mark Warner in the senate race.

Just think of the legal grift jeopardy avoided by Bristol's unmarried motherhood.

The first rule of Grift Club is: The Help knows where The Bodies are buried. The second rule of Grift Club is: Don't Piss on The Help, cf. Rule 1.
