Whaaaaaa???
Senator Ted Kennedy officially endorsed Barak Obama from the Champagne room of the Kitty Kat Club in downtown Boston. Apparently CNN has lowered the flag to half staff in response.
Roger Clemens agent has drafted an 18,000 word document outlining Clemens' career and is attempting to use it to defend his case against steroid and HGH accusations. Apparently, he's unaware of the business model "If it's more than one page, they'll stop reading." Spokesperson for Leonoid Tolstoy had no comment.
The State of the Union is tonight, and the President will speak about the uhhhhhh.....the uhhhhh...the need for more kids to be bi-lingual, and speak languages like Mexican.
CNN reported tonight that 36 soldiers have been killed in Iraq this month, when actually 12 have been Marines. Evidently, CNN does not prescribe to the standard that professionalism means knowing and using proper terminology. Later tonight, they have a story about a meteor or an asteroid - they're not really sure which is which.

The truth about inconsequentisciousness
Scattershot and striking inartfullness? Why not say the conclusions were based upon implausible totalitaryness? Or perhaps, deniable factivity?
While you're at it Barroid, why don't you ask the judge to strike down Roe v Wade....or perhaps set Charlie Manson free? You could make the motion as a combined Helter Skelter abortamectomy based upon ridiculosiosis of the percentages of qualified depositionizing.
The coming weeks will tell the story...no matter the long-range contributory societological defects.
Runners...start your thesouri.
Faakken Notebook
I decided to go with the Faakken computer because it had 13 gigabooms of LAM and over 250 bites of HAM. Both my physical search and my "giggle" search said the best laptop maker in the world today was Faakken Technologies.
Being new to the laptop world, I was pleased to know everyone thought the Faakken computer had the best reliability, service, and even had a Faakken website. I wanted to be able to be online in my Faakken laptop, because my kids are always on the main computer in the house. So I had to buy what they call a "router" (pronounced Row-ter), which I always thought was a roo-ter, as in Roote 66. So off I went in search of my rowter-rooter, and Radio Shack is where I ended up. As it turns out, they make a Faakken router, and since I had a Faakken laptop, it made sense to buy a Faakken router to compliment it.
The Faakken box said the instructions were simple to follow and understand, which usually means you need a PHD in Mechanical Engineering from M.I.T. to understand - but - much to my surprise, the Faakken instructions for the Faakken router where exactly as advertised. All I had to do was place the Faakken disk into my Dell PC, and then follow the prompts for installing the Faakken router.
20 minutes later, and here I am in my bedroom, typing on my Faakken laptop courtesy of the Faakken technologies router. This is so cool, my lips have just crystallized and fallen in a million pieces onto the keyboard of my Faakken laptop.
And so out there, this marks the first post I have made from my Faakken laptop. Now back to the golf tournament on the tube.
Peace

Kids can say the darndest things...
The conversation went back to the minutia of golf and sports, but the impact had been made. David Feherety....like everyone else who goes there...left with a 180 degree opposite opinion than that displayed on our nightly tv's and morning newspapers.

Change
George Bush.
In 1992 the American people wanted change, so the voted for?
William J. Clinton
In 1996, the American people wanted more change, so they again voted for?
William J. Clinton
With pesky laws in place in 2000, WJ Clinton was forced to step aside, and the American people wanted change; so they voted for?
George W. Bush
Wanting even further change in 2004, the American people voted for?
George W. Bush
And now, in 2008, the nation screams out for change. The face of that overwhelming change is?
Hillary Rodham Clinton
This message brought to you by the Bush-Bush-Clinton-Clinton-Bush-Bush-Clinton committee for positive change, because after 24 years, we know that change often means doing exactly what we have always done.
Ok...you may change the blogging channel now.

OY!!
Unless that is, you're the one who suffocated him or herself jumping into the 10 foot snow drift off of their roof.
With that, I give you some latest examples, with my comments in blue.
The Swedish Agriculture and Sciences department has secured a 2 year grant for $539,000,000.00 (Yep - $539Million) to study the effects of cow farts and cow burps on Global Warming. "Hi. I'm Darryl, and this is my brother Darryl and my other brother Darryl."
A Michigan couple sued the owners of a nearby business claiming that dust, noise and vibrations invaded their property and therefore were trespassing. A jury actually found in their favor, but a Court of Appeals panel overturned the jury's verdict. The Appeals court stated that noise, vibrations and dust are intangible objects and can not be considered as trespassers. I have no idea for sure, but I'm thinking nose buggars cannot be charged rental fees for housing either.
In Hayden, Idaho, a man cut off his own hand and cooked it up in the microwave because he believed it bore the mark of the beast. "It had been somewhat cooked by the time the deputy arrived," said sheriff's Capt. Ben Wolfinger. The man is currently under observation at the mental health unit of Kootenai Medical Center. Apparently, this guy had been reading the Book of Matthew, which advises that "if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away." When the Bible says, "Abraham tied his ass to a tree and walked a mile"...it's generally assumed he was indeed speaking of his donkey.
A survey carried out by Fitness magazine found that 23 percent of women would be willing to shave their heads or spend a week in jail in order to be at their ideal weight, and 83 percent of women would rather have an 11th toe than be 50 pounds heavier. Not too surprising, but 21 percent of women also claimed that they would be willing to take a full 10 years off their lives in order to reach their ideal weight. That thing I once said about wanting to be like a male porn star so bad I'd chop off an arm? I was kidding.
ANNNND FINALLY:
A woman in North Carolina who robbed a Bank of America and felt she didn't get enough dough, turned herself in to the sheriff's office hoping to claim the reward for her arrest. "9-1-1; can I help you?" Yes, I'd like to report a large amount of cocaine is in the trunk of a '97 Nissan. "And where is the car, ma'am?" Right here....I'll wait.

an 21, 10:30 PM (ET)By NEDRA PICKLER
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (AP) - Democratic presidential rivals Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama accused each other of repeatedly and deliberately distorting the truth for political gain Monday night in a highly personal, finger-wagging debate that ranged from the war in Iraq to Bill Clinton's role in the campaign.
Obama told the former first lady he was helping unemployed workers on the streets of Chicago when "you were a corporate lawyer sitting on the board at Wal-Mart."
Moments later, Clinton said that she was fighting against misguided Republican policies "when you were practicing law and representing your contributor ... in his slum landlord business in inner city Chicago."
She then called him a "Black Bastard", and he called her a "White supremacist power-monger bent upon sexual upheaval".
Moderator John Stewart was caught without words, and then gave a promo to the upcoming Steven Colbert special, "Why the Smithsonian was wrong".
Tune in next week, as Mike Huckabee calls John McCain a "communist sympathizer".

Somewhere Over the Rainbow
Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Once in a lullaby ii ii iii
Somewhere over the rainbow
Blue birds fly
And the dreams that you dreamed of
Dreams really do come true ooh ooooh
Someday I'll wish upon a star
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me ee ee eeh
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney tops thats where you'll find me oh
Somewhere over the rainbow bluebirds fly
And the dream that you dare to,why, oh why can't I? i iiii
Well I see trees of green and
Red roses too,
I'll watch them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Well I see skies of blue and I see clouds of white
And the brightness of day
I like the dark and I think to myself
What a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands
Saying, "How do you do?"
They're really saying, I...I love you
I hear babies cry and I watch them grow,
They'll learn much more
Than we'll know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world (w)oohoorld
Someday I'll wish upon a star,
Wake up where the clouds are far behind me
Where trouble melts like lemon drops
High above the chimney top that's where you'll find me
Oh, Somewhere over the rainbow way up high
And the dream that you dare to, why, oh why can't I? I hiii ?
ELO - I Cant Get It Out Of My Head.
Midnight on the water.
I saw the ocean's daughter.
Walking on a wave's chicane,
staring as she called my name.
And I can't get it out of my head,
no, I can't get it out of my head.
Now my old world is gone for dead
'cos I can't get it out of my head.
Breakdown on the shoreline,
can't move, it's an ebbtide.
Morning don't get here tonight,
searching for her silver light.
And I can't get it out of my head,
no, I can't get it out of my head.
Now my old world is gone for dead
'cos I can't get it out of my head, no no.
Bank job in the city.
Robin Hood and William Tell and Ivanhoe and Lancelot, they don't envy me.
Sitting till the sun goes down,
in dreams the world keeps going round and round.
And I can't get it out of my head,
no, I can't get it out of my head.
Now my old world is gone for dead
'cos I can't get it out of my head, no no.
No, I can't get it out of my head,
no, I can't get it out of my head.
Now my old world is gone for dead
'cos I can't get it out of my head, no no no no.

Predictions
Obama and Clinton down to the wire. Check.
Romney and Huckabee. Check.
Who knew....
John McCain's wife would be only 37 years old?
Keith Olberman would openly eulogize Obama's loss?
Nevada was next and actually voted? I thought Keno was the diversion of choice. Karen? No?
Britney's car would be towed?

Live free or die
New Hampshire state Motto: Live free or die. Wonder how the prisoners that make those license plates feel??
What a moron. This guy is going to help Britney Spears? She's in biiiiiiiiig trouble if that's the case.
Iranian speed boats got aggressive with three of these in the straights of Hormuz today, prompting the U.S. Navy to laugh hysterically for at least 4 hours, then hang a bedsheet off the side of one of the destroyers with a Target painted on it. Hit it here, Barry...

How to win
Take your pitch from the bottom up, as opposed to the top down.
This wouldn't have worked 20 years ago, which is why Mitt Romney and Senator Clinton are in trouble. They come from the old school of politics, which is to explain what the government is going to do for you - from above. Obama and Huckabee have recognized middle class America's angst over paying for welfare, paying too much in personal taxes, paying too much for health care (but not wanting socialized health care because that would mean paying even more), personal wages being stagnated by American business (both small as well as corporate), exploding gas prices, and a host of other middle class related financial issues. Obama and Huckabee have addressed the needs, and it is immaterial at this point whether or not they can help middle class Americans...they have our attention, which is paramount.
Short of pulling a Tanya Harding and smashing the knee-cap of Barack Obama at an ice rink in New Hampshire, Senator Clinton is in huge trouble, and there may not be any way out of it at this point. She's bound to bring out the machete and start chopping, but I think mean-spirited scare tactics at this point will play right into Obama's subtle descriptions of what she's like anyways. He has painted her into a corner, and no amount of screaming, champagne bottle smashing, or whatever else went on in Iowa last night behind closed doors is going to seal the gash in her Titanic. She's a skilled behind-the-scenes litigator, but when she comes to the forefront, she's exposed as faux. The most famous example I can think of is the image she tries to portray that she's all about the "American Woman." She's all about the cut throat, mega-income, corporate, Mercedes 600 series driving woman, to be sure. But as for the middle class mom working for a living and/or running a small business while raising children and a household? You must be an idiot if you think she's about that. She has no idea what struggles the average Jane and Joe go through on a daily basis, and it shows in her personal presentation.
Mitt Romney can still take on Mike Huckabee, as he is acknowledged as an extremely likeable man - just like Huckabee. But that likeability has not come to the forefront fully, and he needs to kick it into gear over the next few weeks.
My early prediction: Obama will crush Clinton unless she can prove he wears dresses and hangs out in transsexual bars, slipping into the men's room to collect campaign contributions. She'll hang in there until the bitter end....but it will indeed be bitter. She'll lash out at him, and he'll maintain his cool and let her tactics be her own demise.
Romney and Huckabee will fight it out all the way until the end...with both candidates being either totally exhausted or totally energized by the battle. Neither will use particulary nasty tactics against the other, and of course one or the other will prevail.
In doing so,we may indeed have two seemingly honest men running from each party running it off on November 4th. Should be interesting; especially the part where Hillary throws her lasagna in her campaign manager's face.

Gorgeous, isn't it?
And my thoughts. Always my thoughts.
A person can get alone with their thoughts out here, and come back the next day after a fresh snowfall, and all traces of anyone being there the previous day erased by the new blanket of whiteness.
It's sort of like a fresh start; a new opportunity to rethink what you pondered the day before, and give it new life and perspective.
Hmmmm. New life and an original perspective. I think America could use a good snowstorm. And that's all of America, by the way - not just political America.
Some day I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
behind me
Where troubles melt like lemondrops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll
find me

Orlando
I went out 5 minutes ago armed with an aerosol can in each hand, sprayed them into the sky and prayed for global warming.
The dog took a pee and could barely lift his leg he was shivering so badly.
Hey Al Gore....I doubt it dude.
C'mon down here tonight and tell me all about how the science is over and there is no debate. We'll go for a swim, you and I.
You - in trunks. Me - in a full wet suit. Bet your nuggies shrivel faster.
