DON'T READ THIS:

When you're kissing with your honey,
And your nose, it gets all runny,
You may think it's funny,
But it's snot.

You were warned. It'll be with you for life.

NEWT GINGRICH: Victory or Death. The video was produced only one year after the 2008 election and Newt accurately predicted the two following years.

FROM MY EMAIL:

The Montana Department of Employment, Division of Labor Standards claimed a small rancher was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to investigate him.

GOV’T AGENT: “I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them.”

RANCHER: ”Well, there’s my hired hand who’s been with me for 3 years I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board. Then there’s the mentally challenged guy. He works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally.”

GOV’T AGENT: “That’s the guy I want to talk to - the mentally challenged one.”

RANCHER: “That would be me.”

This is supposed to be funny, but having followed the OWS protests for the last several weeks, I'm inclined to agree that any small business owner would have to be 'mentally challenged' to continue to put up with the insanity we laughingly call government.

PAUL GREENBERG on why the Pro-Choice movement will lose in the end: "The trick is to speak of fetuses, not unborn children. So long as the victims are a faceless abstraction, anything can be done to them. Just don't look too closely at those sonograms."

MICHAEL RAMIREZ: The problem with American culture.

ON THE RADIO this morning I heard that Washington D.C. is the "style capital" of the U.S., with residents spending an average of $254 per month on clothes. That's more than I spend in a year (to which my daughter will attest).

LITTORAL COMBAT SHIP: the Navy's new multi-mission coastal combat ship.
