News Bullets

• The big news is of course how rarely the accomplishments of President Obama have actually all been listed starting with the Lilly Ledbetter act for female job pay parity.  This President faced perhaps his greatest crisis last Summer when the Republicans did everything they could to force a US dept default, but the President still managed to cut a deal that not only averted the problem but also actually cut the cost of government for the first time perhaps since the days of President Clinton.  If the whole situation just "fades away" as I predict it will, it will give the Republicans one thing LESS to complain about.   Those who know all the facts know the odds are at least 95% that there IS no crisis now, and Never Has Been!
• The Cherokee Nation was one tribe of Aberiginals that supported the British during the French and Indian Wars, unlike almost all other tribes.  So as Dr. Phil might say "How is that Newt Gringrich routine of embracing British Colonialism working out for you?
• Accoring to Thom Hartman it used to be common for there to be a "second sleep" after a mid night waking for a couple hours when all the religious Mystics got their best revelatory Insights.  This was up to the end of the Seventh Century when "street lighting become more common.  "Huh?"
• It's someone wearing a Gene Kelly mask saying 'Why should we mourn for Jesus Christ.  He mourned enough for Himself while he was Alive.  To which Spencer Tracy responded.  "Have you no compassion on the true meaning of his message".  Kelly:  Oh, you mean like the Romans setting the Jewish Temple on fire and the gold melting between the stones and they had to take the Temple literally apart to dig out all of the Gold.  That kind of Compassion?
• They say that Sarah Palin was unfairly portrayed during the "Game Change" movie.  Well maybe, but our electronic software would not except numeric inputs for IQ scores smaller than two digits.
• Joe the Plumber says "Some of my best friends are homosexual".  Anybody who begins a sentense with "some of my best friends are - - " are lying through their teeth.  You know that, don't you?
• If "de-mylonization of the brain" is something that occur when you shed the illusions of Child hood, well I say otherwise.  De-mylonization is like bullemia.  You may think it's exercising "disgestive system clensing" but in reality you are screwing yourself over royal, as part of some psychological compulsion.
• Dennis Kessinich did not to deserve losing that Primary in Ohio.  The Republicans redistricted him to pit democrat against democrat.  Just like they enjoy pitting Black against Jew or Black against Latino
• Lumpy Rutheford:  Wally, you've offered me all this crap to eat like BBQ potato chips and diet lemon line, and Cheetos, but all this still doesn't equal a hunk of chocolate cake, which is what I originally asked if you had.  Sorry, I picked up that bad habbit from being around my Church Pastor too long.
• After we had sex, the young girl began bleeding.  "It's my period, she says".  I said "Yeah, that happens to me all the time with my brain when I feel violated by a Sunday sermon in church.
• They say that to get Cancer from the caramel coloring they use in Coke and Pepsi you would have to drink one thousand cans a day on a sustained basis.  This is the concentration that it took for mice.  But in some ways Corporations are a little TOO paranoid about roomer and imuendo.
• The woman who invented Spanks slimming underwear has had a lot of tradgedy in her life.  She had a "never say die" philosophy ever since she was young when she had a "Susan" like determination to "try and be good at Something".  As a teenager she used to listen to Wayne Dyre tapes in her car and people didn't want to ride with her because the tapes were always going.  Wayne Dyre teaches that "You'll never get Healed if you think a healing is something you get from other people and not from yourself".  To me this is highly presumptuous.
• The Iditerod is being run in Alaska right now, which is a 600 or whatever - mile trek to Nome or whatever.  There is a dog who was 67 years old in dog years that had to drop out, and his owner gave him mouth to snout recessitation and carried the dog to safety where is got medical help and is at home now.
• Of course we here at the Vatican have had our finances audited.  Why, we've been having our financial records audited for the past 1200 years.  And Both accountants died mysteriously of arsnic poisoning soon afterward.
• March 11th is the one year anniversary of the bad nine point earthquake in Japan.  It was two months before the Japanese government told the people there had been an actual melt down.  The Japanese people openly express distrust for their own governments and are quite paranoid about radioactivity, traces of which are still around.  The Reactors still have not been repaired.
• Normally we go on Daylight Savings Time this weekend but I have heard no overt reference to it either on the radio or the television, and Network News didn't bring it up.  Well allright.  Bill Press thinks it's rediculous to go on DLST this early.  Just who the hell do we think we are- - France?   Bill Press just says wouldn't be funny if everybody showed up for their same jobs on Monday at the old time?
• Cosco and Whole Foods are two retail food stores that don't allow that "pink slime" in their hamburgers.  They claim that regular gelatin has more protien content.  The government is steadfast in its refuse to label meats that have it.  And you thought George Bush was no longer President.
• President Obama denies that he's been in bed with the Wall Street crowd ever.  So what's with all these new DNA mutents that have suddenly been discovered walking around.
• Andrew Britebart is living proof that anal sex can indeed produce a Child.
• The Love Boat used in the seventies TV series has been docked in Italy for the past thirty years but now it has been sold to a Turkish salvage company, which is going to junk it.
• Next month will be the one hundredth annivery of the Titanic going down.  Of course I toured replicas of this vessel in March of 2003 and it was a pretty amazing experiance, at the LA Museum.
• I guessed that the movie "The Rain Maker" had Burt Lancaster in the starring role as the leading man.  I've never seen the movie but based my judgement strictly on his personality in other movies.  The story is about a real person who was hired to make it rain in San Diego.  But he produced so much that people wanted to sue for damages, and the city of San Diego refused to pay him what was promised.
• Mitt Romney is now campaigning in the South because Mississippi and Alabama have primaries next Tuesday.  So now Mitt Romney has learned to fake a Southern accent.  This truely may be Newt Gingrich's last stand, if he can't win in the two most bigoted states, he's through.  Kansas is tomorrow.
• Apparently there is really such a thing as a "glow worm".  But it isn't even a worm but some sort of a Beetle.  No news yet on whether this insect can sing.
• This may come as news to you or perhaps not.  We've heard that optical zoom on a camera is what counts and that computer zoom is meaningless.  This is not true.  Computer zoom often works perfectly fine.  With optical zoom there is an increased liklihood of jerking the camera.  Also since the lens lets in no more light the picture is more apt go "go grainy" for lack of proper light, so watch that.
• According to Thom Hartman scitzophrenia like hyper activity, is an evolutionary device to help people cope in societies.  According to Hartman the Shamans of old were scitzo and we all know those are people "who can see right through you" like they were Jesus or somebody.  What if I told you I could see right through Jesus?  In point of fact, unless they are genuinely demon posessed (that's another story) they are most likely playing some kind of mind game on you and you fell for it.
• For four cycles of the Mayan Calendar, or perhaps it was only three, the tide was high for those Cardinals in Rome under the reign of the Holy See.  But in the year of the Dragon the Church wherled around, in cycles - one, two three, and the people cried for Mercy but the Lord wasn't listening and it sank to the Bottom of the Sea.
• This picture really was taken early in the morning on January 8th 2011 I believe.  It kind of looks like I just got up, and as you can see it was still dark.
