GLOBAL WARMING must be good, because cold weather causes murder.
AMAZON CEO recovers Apollo engines from Atlantic. They may be from Apollo 11.

VOICE OF EXPERIENCE: the ObamaCare IT nightmare.
OBAMACARE: three years and still pathetic.
PRESIDENTIAL LIMO breaks down in Israel. Best comment: "Maybe he forgot to bring his fuel taster."
OBVIOUSLY NOT. "Are you smarter than a 6th grader?"
"THE LESSON Americans should draw from Cyprus is simple: The more the government controls the economy, the less safe their property is from confiscation."
HEH. The 'creative class' is neither.
