Quotes of the Day FALSE EYELASH ALERT: TWT's Senior Op-ed columnist Emily Miller tests out fake eyelashes for the first time. She appears pleased with the experience: "The TV makeup artist gave me false eyelashes today. First time in my life!" Bret Baier takes another Twitter beating Last week they hated his necktie. This week FNC anchor Bret Baier reacts kindly to a follower just hating him and his work. Period. Truth3232 writes, "Your a hateful despicable sc#mbag with lies and hatefulness I'm sure your [sic] ashamed." To which Baier replied, "Thanks for watching." Emotional journo "Come on, Nats! This is when I start eating emotionally. #sweetpotatofries" -- RCP's Erin McPike. Female blogger declares her single status "Just made it official on FB. I'm single and like men. In case there's any confusion/single men with beach houses who want to ask me out." -- Conservative blogger Lisa De Pasquale. Wanted: Hairdresser "DC friends, I'm in desperate need of a haircut. Does anyone have any recommendations for a reasonably priced, skillful hairdresser/stylist?" -- WaPo designer Tim Wong. (Calling famed RHOD stylist Paul Wharton: any recs?) The Observer "Oh Brooklyn... Woman sends back her orange juice because it's not fresh-squeezed." -- HuffPost's Amanda Terkel. Journo offers cold, harsh reality "No one cares what TV show you are on this morning or anything to do with the brain dead presidential race. There is nothing but Jeter." -- Politico's Ben White who clearly forgot where he works this weekend amidst a sports binge. Um, Grover is big? "Girls displayed to 'Big Dad' their 'campout'--a pile of all books and toys and blankets in center of room. Mom will be so happy or not." -- Americans for Tax Reform Prez Grover Norquist. WETA seeks funds from 1-year-old "WETA mailed my 1-year-old daughter a solicitation to become a supporting member. Getting 'em young, PBS?" -- Washington City Paper Editor Mike Madden. Deep Thoughts With Chris Hayes: "The place where I and lots of others learned to write long -- alt weeklies -- have been absolutely destroyed." -- MSNBC's Chris Hayes to BuzzFeed's Ben Smith. Barnicle graces D.C. "In DC today. Whole town sleepwalking through a baseball nightmare. Nobody paying attention, waiting for Storen to throw strike three." -- MSNBC "Morning Joe" regular Mike Barnicle. The Heckler "Michael Hastings on MSNBC? What -- he couldn't find a general to get fired this morning? #MSNBCFail" -- The Daily Caller's TV writer Jeff Poor on BuzzFeed's Michael Hastings. Convo among broadcast journos This morning's conversation is among ABC President Ben Sherman, Senior WH Correspondent Jake Tapper and ABC Senior Political Correspondent Jonathan Karl. Oddly, Tapper's tweet on the bean incident has disappeared. Strangely Sherwood's first bean tweet can't be found, but he has a few subsequent remarks on it. Karl's tweet remains intact. SHERWOOD: I put that in the same category as lima beans. TAPPER: I have studiously refrained from bringing up the shocking lima bean incident in a public venue. SHERWOOD: Do not snub the butter bean! KARL: The lima bean revelation was a shocking one. In other Jake Tapper news... "1 month from today my book THE OUTPOST, comes out. More than 2 years in the making, I've never worked harder on any project in my life...1/2" -- Tapper.
