THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “If you are still cooking on a hot plate at home, you can pretty much figure you are not going to qualify for a new car loan.”
The getaway didn’t quite work after police arrested Sean Gallagher of Illinois on charges he robbed the same gas station three times in recent months. After the third robbery a gas station employee pointed Gallagher out to police as he walked to his home, which is some 200 yards away.
Phoenix police said they’ve broken up a new major prostitution ring that set up dates through internet websites. More than 100 people worked for the organization that was centered in Metropolitan Phoenix area. Paul Nichita, 32, was one of the alleged ringleaders and a key player. Looks like there is a totally new way to catch a virus from the net now … Wonder if Microsoft has a patch for this?
A huge population of endangered gorillas have been found, some 125,000 western lowland gorillas deep in the forests of the Congo. Now let me see, you are counting gorilla’s and you miss “125,000” how is it that you accomplish this lofty feat? Now I had been hearing about American kids laggin behind other countries in math, but this?
How in the world can you MISS that many or fail to count a number that high?
The government announced today that older men should not be tested for prostrate cancer. It says that they are likely to be hurt by the test than helped. 44% of all cancers detected do not actually have to be tested because of slow growth rates in the body. Unnecessary biopsies lead to anxiety and serious complications from depression and other side effects. Just when I was starting to get used to it, had reached a point where it didn’t bother me, and now they go and cancel it. Oh well, back to the porn sites.
125,000 gorillas … think about it.
Paris Hilton has a new commercial out and the present round of political insanity in the country continues. I hate reading articles on showbiz people and their talking politics’, but it is so hot now, you’re almost forced to talk about it. It is so noisy and in your face.
Who do you think suffers the most in traffic, men or women? Most likely you are shaking your head and saying men, because we are known world-wide for our lousy tempers. But you are wrong, it is women. U.S. Census researchers have found that with women, each additional child they have results in more driving, because they do the bulk of the trips taking the kids places. With men, it doesn’t matter if they have no kids or two kids … they tend to drive the same amount.
In our marriage I traditionally do all the driving, my wife drives, but when she is behind the wheel, I have a profound tendency to gnaw on the dashboard. Men handle problems differently than women; my parents illustrated this to me over and over when I was a kid.
When my mom was mad at me she would say “Get In The Car!” my dad on the other hand would say ……. “Go stand in the street until I can get the truck started!”
Speaking of temperament?
A Milwaukee man is facing felony charges after shooting his lawnmower with a shotgun. Keith Walendowski, 57, told police that he was perfectly entitled to shoot his Lawn-Boy mower at 9:30 A.M. Saturday morning because it would not start. “It’s my lawn mower and it is my yard, so I can shoot it if I want.” was the exact quote. Police however, disagreed, and charged him with disorderly conduct and possession of a short-barreled shotgun.
Back in the seventies, the company that I worked for sent me to “anger management sessions” (which was totally free by the way, and I got to talk to these very nice people and they seemed to understand everything that I told them) and I learned to control my rage. When my lawnmower would not start, I took a six pound mall (hammer) to it and beat it too death! It was later on that I discovered it was out of gasoline at the time. (Services are pending)
“One hundred twenty-five thousand big black grass eating Apes … think about it.”
It really makes one think about which of the species is more advanced, doesn’t it?
