The Pedro Principle

We're hearing that former Nashville schools director Pedro Garcia, who resigned under pressure in January after a two-year stretch where it seemed like “embattled” had become his permanent decriptor, has accepted a teaching position at his home away from home, the University of Southern California, where he often spent his weekends cheering on the Trojan football team. We tried to confirm that with Mr. Embattled himself and gather more details, and this is what he had to say: “I'm not talking about anything right now.” “I really don't want to talk to anybody right now, especially the Scene.” "I'm not a public figure anymore.” So we don't know what the truth is.

It was reported that his house is for sale and that they are both moving back to sunny southern california. Most of his family is there.

There is no "decriptor" found. There is is a word, descriptor, located, and may have been what M.Pulle meant, but became so excited at the prospect of someone asking the meaning of this bit of internetese failed to spell the word correctly.

Who can blame Pedro for feeling this way? The way the media in this town GRIND on a superintendent just to serve their own pulp fiction interests is deplorable.
It's like Nashville is one big southern neighborhood of low class people who don't know how to do anything but gossip and feed their already obese bodies with more deep fried, fried chicken.
And, the Scene. Puhleeeeeze - what a sorry excuse to kill trees. Give me a freakin' break!

Wow, with so much respect for your fellow citizens, you should think about running yourself. In the meantime, shut the hell up and pass that twice-fried chicken.
