Imus said Monday that he had been misunderstood.

No doubt. I'm sure what he meant was, "what is his favorite color?" Or maybe he meant, "what color was his shirt the night of arrest." No, i know what he meant. He meant, "what time is it?"

I can't wait to hear his explanation of this one. I just can't see what he meant - other than exactly what he said.
