Excellent 20/20 Special Edition Episode with John Stossel
Posted on 15:02 by Unknown
A few days ago, ABC showed a special edition of 20/20 with John Stossel, who is a skeptic of big government. This is worth watching. The episode is on You Tube, divided into one video for each of the 6 topics in this special edition: Part 3 - Medical marijuana, the federal government's fight against it despite states' approval. Part 4 - Obama's universal pre-kindergarten program will worsen our education system. |

It's Still Early in 2009, but I think We May Have Found the Knucklehead of the Year...

| This Swedish truck driver at a furniture maker tried to warm up by taking a quick ride on the conveyor belt through the shrinking oven. Unfortunately, his weight broke the conveyor belt - stranding him in the middle of the 365 degree oven. He got dragged to safety, but got seriously injured Now the Swedish Work Environment Authority is playing nanny and investigating the company - that maybe they should have had surveillance. Come on, how much can you guard against utter stupidity? |

The Japanese are pretty advanced at robot design.
They have an aging population and I think they want to eventually depend on robots instead of immigrants.

More Republican "Family Values"
Posted on 08:53 by Unknown
| According to a recent Tribune article, Gary Skoien, Palatine Township GOP committeeman and former Cook county Republican chairman, sought a restraining order against his wife. She was charged with attacking him over the weekend after she discovered that he had invited two women to their Inverness home. Skoien said that two female friends were visiting around 1 am Sunday, when his wife, who had returned home a bit earlier, came downstairs and attacked him. The police report, though, says that his wife Eni became angry when she discovered that "Gary was downstairs in the children's playroom with two prostitutes." The report says she punched him and hit him with a guitar. (And, before anyone complains that I only pick on Republicans, I know that democratic politicians are hypocrites also - everyone knows about our former governor Blago) |

Indian Mom
Posted on 17:18 by Unknown
| A Mom comes to visit her son Kumar for dinner...who lives with a girl roommate named Sunita. During the course of the meal, his mother couldn't help but notice how pretty Kumar's roommate was. She had long been suspicious of a relationship between the two, and this had only made her more curious. Over the course of the evening, while watching the two interact, she started to wonder if there was more between Kumar and his roommate than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, Kumar volunteered, 'I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, Sunita and I are just roommates". About a week later, Sunita came to Kumar saying, 'Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the silver chutney jar. You don't suppose she took it, do you?' Kumar said: "Well, I doubt it, but I'll email her, just to be sure.' So he sat down and wrote: Dear Mother, I'm not saying that you 'did' take the chutney jar from my house, I'm not saying that you 'did not' take the chutney jar. But the fact remains that it has been missing ever since you were here for dinner. Love, Kumar Several days later, Kumar received an email from his Mother which read, Dear Son: I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with Sunita, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with Sunita. But the fact remains that if she was sleeping in her OWN bed, she would have found the chutney jar by now under the pillow.... Love, Mom. Lesson of the day: Don't Lie to Your Mother.... especially if she is Indian |
