Obama Ain't Afraid of No Cliff

Today's Top News

I learned that despite the looming "Fiscal Cliff" we are about to go over, the fine men and women in The House and Senate are going to get a raise!  Obama signed an executive order to give them a pay increase.  I can't help but shake my head, doesn't one usually get a pay raise for doing a good job?

Let's put this in an easy to understand format... say these folks work at McDonald's, even though I doubt any of them are qualified to do so.  They would argue about how much to charge and never settle on an amount.  And then there's old Nancy, Ms. "We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it."  I imagine, Nancy would work the front counter and offer bags of food, saying you have to pay for it before you know what's in it.  One thing for sure, whatever is in that bag she is selling, it's topped with Boehner's tears, the new secret ingredient in the Special Sauce. 

I, for one, can't think of any group of people more deserving of a raise.

"I'd put a bumper sticker on my car that says---"I Boycott Dicks" but then someone would think I'm a recovering homo!!!"

This status was in reference to Dick's Sporting Goods deciding to stop selling certain rifles.

Reading, Writing, & Wiping

Apparently things are getting so crappy that in some places in our great country the kids have to add toilet paper to their school supply list.

I don't know if this is news, it depends on what your definition of news is.

Google is known for having a sense of humor.  I found this story about searching Google for Obama here.

Don't worry if you are a hardcore Obama lover and this upsets you, you can always substitute Obama for Palin and get similar results.

Today's Top News

You know there are woman that get cheated on everyday, some that live in trailers with some good for nothing loser that can't keep a job... they find out and kick the bum out and what do they get... to keep the rented trailer and the set of Arby's Christmas glasses, that's a combo that could make any woman bitter. But today I found out one woman could possibly find forgiveness a bit easier, Tiger's soon to be ex-wife is going to get a couple of houses and 750 million dollars!  I'd always heard of marrying well but wow-wee that lady divorced well.  If I were her I could so smile at his dumb arse every time I had to see him.  C'mon 750 million that's a whole lot of medicine for the ol' heartache.

*Yes guys I know women cheat too... I'm sure one day we'll get to that.

Today's Fan Page

I have found the perfect fan page for my mother.  She calls me all the time to tell me about all the mistakes on my blog.  The woman is so obsessed with grammar and punctuation, that she took her a newsletter she received from the company that she worked for marked it up with a red pen, and sent it back to them.  I'm sure a phone call will be coming after she reads this post as well.  Hi mom!


If people like me drive you crazy with their lackadaisical attitude when it comes to grammar and punctuation this fan page is for you,  'Let's eat Grandma!' or, 'Let's eat, Grandma!' Punctuation saves lives.

My New Idea

I think that we should start one of those chain status deals and I have an idea for it to see how far we can get it around Facebook.  I'll announce it when we have 100 fans on our page so join up by clicking the Facebook widget on the sidebar and becoming a fan.

Corps, Corpse, Tomayto, Tamahto

Let me start off by saying that I'm so so happy to have the internet again!  That was a rough couple of days and as crazy as it sounds I was thinking about a disaster and what if we all didn't have internet. (insert doom and gloom scary music here!)  What would we do without it?  I know it's very painful to think about. :oP

Next time I go on vacation I'm finding out where this place is!

Today's Top News

According to President Obama at the National Prayer Breakfast we have a 'corpse' man in the Navy.  I would say he pronounced corps wrong but who am I to say? I went to community college and he went to Harvard.  Here's the video.



I also learned today that my state senator is for increasing the tax on fuel by ten cents a gallon and since I'm against using profanity on my blog I won't say anymore on that subject.

Today's Well That's Interesting

People have started posting on their profile It's Doppelganger week. Please change your profile picture to someone famous (actor, musician, athlete, etc) you have been told you look like. Then re-post this message.  Sadly, I didn't participate in this because I have never been told I look like anyone.

You Say It Best When You Say Nothing At All

 

Today's Top News

As I predicted yesterday Obama's State of The Union was the big news of the day.  Most people were totally shocked that he fired up his campaign bus and ran over the Supreme Court Judges with it. 

Some of the comments posted about the SOTU address I can't repeat as they aren't mom approved... not as bad as sucking on a bar of Lifeboy soap like Ralph had to do in the movie A Christmas Story, but bad enough.

Just to be fair I'll add that, I did one of those things on Facebook a couple of months ago that gives a percentage for your friends like how many are single or married.  I found back then that my friends are a little over 60% Republican.  So, I can't really say what I read is fair and balanced like say Fox News.  I will say though that my friends that are Democrats have quieted and have for the most part stopped defending Obama.

Have you seen the Geico commercial where the old man has that catchy funny ringtone, ringity-ding-ding-dingy-dong, on his cell phone? Today someone posted a link and you can go download the ringtone for free.   If you haven't seen the commercial, it's here on the same page you can get the ringtone from.

Please put this on your status if you know someone (or are related to someone) who has been eaten by dragons. My wish for 2010 is that people will understand, that being eaten by dragons is not something to be ashamed of. Dragons are nearly unstoppable and are truly terrifying. 93% won't copy and paste this... They have been eaten by dragons.

.... tried to sing like Snow White... must not be doing it right though, cause no animals came to help clean house!


I've never tried that one but I'm guessing the animals would run for the hills if I did it.  My singing is so bad I could probably get a gig exterminating mice or something from homes.
