FUN: If you vote for McCain, bad things will happen

Saturday, March 7, 2009

Every once in a while my Luddite friend finds a inet fable that is humorous. (I doubt he wrote this himself. The BCC gives it away.)

*** begin quote ***

I have to admit it. My liberal friends were right.

They told me if I voted for McCain, the nation’s Hope would deteriorate, and sure enough there has been a 20 point drop in the Consumer Confidence Index since the election, reaching a lower point than any time during the Bush administration.

They told me if I voted for McCain, the US would become more deeply embroiled in the Middle East, and sure enough tens of thousands of additional troops are scheduled to be deployed into Afghanistan.

They told me if I voted for McCain, that the economy would get worse and sure enough unemployment is approaching 8.8% and the new stimulus packages implemented recently have sent the stock market lower than at any time since 1997.

They told me if I voted for McCain, we would see more “crooks” in high ranking positions in Federal government and sure enough, several recent cabinet nominees and Senate appointments revealed resumes of bribery and tax fraud.

Well I ignored my Democrat friends in November and voted for McCain. And they were right… many of their predictions have come true.

*** end quote ***

ROFL!
Well, in actuality, he buys into the two party illusion. I’m working on making him a little L libertarian. Then, we’ll convert him to be a voluntaryist!

FUN: AHH, now I understand why girls wear short shirts

Belly Button Beauty Cues Potential Mates
Jessica Marshall, Discovery News

Jan. 30, 2009 — Navel-gazing may serve a useful purpose, after all. People may use belly button beauty to assess the fitness of a potential mate, according to Aki Sinkkonen of the University of Helsinki, Finland.

# – # – #

Now it all makes sense. Low rise jeans and short shirts are all to bare the midriff. It’s all about attracting a mate. It’s not enough that gals use chemical warfare to capture us hapless males into a life time of toil. They have to use semi-nudity too?

ROFL.

Run for your lives men.

FUN: Too many O’s?

Tuesday, January 20, 2009

Now that O (Obama) is POTUS, does O (Oprah) have to cede the designation O to him?

There’s a cat fight I’d pay to see.

LOL!

Maybe one of them can be O2 or Otoo. Yet Another O — Yao.

But O2 is oxygen and that’s a TV network.

Maybe with Oprah’s political support of Obama, there’s no diff!

ROFL.

FUN: Monkey Bailout Parable

Tuesday, January 13, 2009

FROM LUDDITE, FORWARDING SOMETHING ON:

*** begin quote ***

Once upon a time a man appeared in a village and announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for $10 each.

The villagers, seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them.

The man bought thousands at $10 and, as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort. He next announced that he would now buy monkeys at $20 each. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again.

Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms. The offer increased to $25 each and the supply of monkeys became so scarce it was an effort to even find a monkey, let alone catch it!

The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at $50 each! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would buy on his behalf. In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers: “Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has already collected. I will sell them to you at $35 and when the man returns from the city, you can sell them to him for $50 each.”

The villagers rounded up all their savings and bought all the monkeys for 700 billion dollars.

They never saw the man or his assistant again, only lots and lots of monkeys!

Now you have a better understanding of how the WALL STREET BAILOUT PLAN WILL WORK !!!!

It doesn’t get much clearer than this…………….

Funny. AND all to true!

Eagles fly past Vikings with 26-14 playoff victory
By DAVE CAMPBELL, AP Sports Writer Dave Campbell, Ap Sports Writer – 1 hr 9 mins ago

*** begin quote ***

MINNEAPOLIS – Above the Metrodome’s deafening noise, Donovan McNabb stayed poised. Completing passes precisely when the Eagles needed him to, McNabb repeatedly sidestepped the Minnesota rush and sent Philadelphia to a 26-14 playoff win Sunday after being all but forgotten as a postseason contender just one month earlier.

*** end quote ***

I’d say that the Vikings were outcouched!

With 6_ minutes to go, 4th and 10, the Vikings punted.

There went the game!

Out Coached!

Argh!

Was a good game up to that point!

Need the title explained?

MP4B = “Millionaires Playing For Billionaires”

And, we’re supposed to cut them some slack, feel sorry for their screwed up lives, and pay tax subsidies to MLB, NFL, NHL, and others? Not bloodly well likely. They should pay their own way and kiss the ground every morning for having it so easy.

FUN: COMIC KATHY LASHES OUT AT HECKLER ON CNN

HAPPY #*%! NEW YEAR TO YOU, TOO!
COMIC KATHY LASHES OUT AT HECKLER ON CNN

*** begin quote ***

Comedienne Kathy Griffin may be doomed to life on CNN’s S-list after answering a heckler with a shrieking, vulgar tirade during the network’s live New Year’s Eve broadcast.

*** end quote ***

I’m shock and appalled at the reference and language on TV.

“I’m shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!” Captain Renault in Casablanca

Actually, I thought she was pretty funny and handled the heckler with what he deserved.

Mess with a comic at you own risk.

AND, if we heard what the politicians say when we’re not listening, that would be an education.

The old media is propaganda. Thinking that they are so “above the fray”.

Nice to see some honesty on TV.

Not everyone is perky Kattie C!

More honesty; less phoneysism.

FUN: irregardless

Friday, December 19, 2008

“Do you fix misspelled menus? Correct your girlfriend’s grammar? Cringe every time someone says “supposably” or “nucular”? Has this obsessive behavior ever gotten you in trouble (i.e., dumped, fired, or arrested for defacing public property?).”

No, but when I was hot under the collar about a room reservation screw up, I did roast a hotel clerk’s tail feathers over the word “ilregardless”. Every once and while my Luddite friend uses it. We all laff.

But, I’m not sure he was joking?

(Are you?)

FUN: ISTP is that like an ITSJ?

Sunday, November 23, 2008

The analysis indicates that the author of http://www.reinkefaceslife.com/ is of the type:

ISTP – The Mechanics

[ISTP]

The independent and problem-solving type. They are especially attuned to the demands of the moment are masters of responding to challenges that arise spontaneously. They generally prefer to think things out for themselves and often avoid inter-personal conflicts.

The Mechanics enjoy working together with other independent and highly skilled people and often like seek fun and action both in their work and personal life. They enjoy adventure and risk such as in driving race cars or working as policemen and firefighters.

The English is clear enough to lorry drivers – but the Welsh reads “I am not in the office at the moment. Send any work to be translated.”
