THE END OF THE WORLD IS NEAR ... and it’s going to be awesome when the government goes bankrupt and free markets take over.

FINALLY: Drones that deliver beer.

BILL AYERS defends Weather Underground bombings: "There is no relationship at all between what Weather Underground members did and the bombings that two brothers allegedly committed on April 15 in Massachusetts, Ayers said in response to a reporter’s question." Yeah, that's because the Weather Underground bombers were incompetent -- and unsuccessful.

IMPEACHMENT? “No matter what happens with Darrell Isaa’s congressional committee meetings this week, we are witnessing the beginning of the end of the Obama Administration, and the cause is Benghazi."

We can hope. Follow the link.

BILL RICHARDSON ON TED CRUZ: 'I don’t think he should be defined as a Hispanic'. Richardson is as Hispanic as Elizabeth Warren is Native American.

GOVERNING BY EXPERTS. Just keep in mind the origin of 'expert' -- from the words 'ex', meaning has-been, and 'spurt', a drip under pressure.

NO NEED for cowboys.

"COMMON CORE" and the all-too-common tendencies of heavy-handed government.

Americans should heed the warning: when a majority of the states begin to all do the same thing in terms of public policy, we, the people, become an easier target for federal control.

Good advice.

DOING MORE WITH LESS. And saving taxpayer dollars.



Explain to me again why sequestration is a 'big deal'.

A REPUBLICAN IN MASSACHUSETTS?

FROM MY EMAIL, a minor bit of history you probably didn't know:

Most people don't know that back in 1912, Hellmann's mayonnaise was manufactured in England. In fact, the Titanic was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after its stop in New York .

This would have been the largest single shipment of mayonnaise ever delivered to Mexico . But as we know, the great ship did not make it to New York . The ship hit an iceberg and sank. The people of Mexico, who were crazy about mayonnaise, and were eagerly awaiting its delivery, were disconsolate at the loss.

Their anguish was so great, that they declared a National Day of Mourning. The National Day of Mourning occurs each year on May 5th and is known, of course, as -

Sinko De Mayo.

What? You expected something educational from me?

I THOUGHT I'd heard it all, but ... climate change leads to prostitution?

A RED LINE HAS BEEN CROSSED. WHAT'S NEXT?



From the Los Angeles Times.

QUITE A RIDE: From king of the world to dead in the water in six months. My preference would be from "King of the World" to "King of the Road".

CONGRESS, TOO: Time to Ban High Capacity Liberals From Campus.

REMINDER:

INSECT-EYE CAMERA offers wide-angle vision for tiny drones.

MEDICAL PRIVACY is about to go the way of the dodo. About to go? It's gone -- long, long gone. Medical privacy disappeared when health insurance bacame health care. ObamaCare is simply making it obvious.

BUT OF COURSE: Will Bureaucracy Keep The U.S. Drone Industry Grounded? Privacy concerns are often cited, but bureaucratic incompetence is what will keep drones grounded for the forseeable future.

JUST DESSERTS: Gas stations vanishing from Bethesda, MD. Bethesda is the inside-the-beltway-but-outside-DC-proper home of those who most adamantly want the rest of us to take public transportation.

Here are the vanishing gas stations, and here's the Bethesda Metro station (smack in the middle of Wisconsin Avenue in the Washington Post graphic).

Walk or ride yourselves, and leave the driving to us.
