Old school OSs like OS/MVS, DOS/VSE, OpenVMS, MPE, MCP, etc all

From 2004: All of the "reporting" about Laci Peterson & Michael 
Jackson reminds me of the Don Henley song "Dirty Laundry": "Can 
we do the operation?  Is the head dead yet?  You know, the boys 
in the newsroom got a running bet.  Get the widow on the set, we 
need dirty laundry."
