Meanwhile, back at the ranch.....

Just the wierdest story of the day. Seems that Don Imus is being sued by his former nanny. Apparently on a trip to the Imus' New Mexico ranch, the nanny brought along a cap gun and a pocket knife. Imus and wife flip out when they discover that she is "armed" and they throw her off the ranch at 4:30 in the morning. The nanny had lost her wallet before the trip even started, but because it was a chartered jet, she didn't need her ID. (Really?)

At any rate, the nanny is stranded because she can't get on a plane back to NYC without an ID. Finally she makes her way to her grandmother's home in California. Meanwhile, Imus does his radio show ranting and raving that he had to fire his "terrorist" nanny because he had to "disarm" her in the middle of the night.

Phew, what a sordid tale. Methinks the rhetoric is a tad inflamed in the claim filed by the nanny's lawyers, but nonetheless, it is one bizarre story.
