Guess Who’s an Official UN Hero?
Michael C. Moynihan | September 4, 2009, 11:30pm

*** begin quote ***

Rev. Miguel D’Escoto Brockmann, the president of the United Nations General Assembly, bestows official hero status on Bolivian President Evo Morales, the first president of Tanzania Julius Nyerere, and Cuban dictator Fidel Castro.

And why are we still in the UN?

SOFTWARE: Snow Leopard, ILife09, and IWork09

Monday, September 7, 2009

RE: SNOW LEOPARD

Mine went smooth. Don’t believe the estimates it spouts. I got the PACK with Snow, iwork09, and ilife09. Took about an hour each. Only surprise was TextExpander and Scrivner needed a refresh. Only grip is that it left iwork08 and iwork09 behind. Other that that it was a non-event.

FUN: Shore report

Monday, September 7, 2009

Cloudy and overcast.

Damp. Maybe rain? But, I don’t think so.

Tourists will “evacuate”. Yeah! “I vant to be alone.” And, have it all to myself.

Clouds moving quickly to the east.

Maybe the sun will come out … … tomorrow!

ROFL!

RANT: Gooferment subsidized stupidity!

Monday, September 7, 2009

John Stossel’s Take
Commentary from Co-Anchor of ABC News’ “20/20”
$2.7 Billion for Captain Morgan?

40-70 jobs for the bargain price of nearly $3 billion?

*** and ***

Turns out Diageo currently makes rum in Puerto Rico, so jobs there will be lost if the company relocates to the Virgin Islands.

“It’s insulting that the money we give is essentially paying for a foreign corporation to move from one U.S. location to another, while cutting jobs”

*** end quote ***

You can’t make this stuff up. The gooferment should just not take our money in the first place. It delivers NOTHING!

Seriously, the guys at Free Talk Live posed the challenge: “Name one government program that works? Bearing in mind that overpaying is not being a success.” I’ve never heard anyone answer that. Can you?

And, you want them to have MORE programs? AND EVEN something as important as Health Care, Health Insurance, or whatever they are calling it today!

Sheeple.
