WTF

Proof that woman are inferior to men is prevalent everywhere we look in today’s culture and for this week’s example we need look no further than a tax payer funded program that’s actually giving out cash to women not to get pregnant.  Instead of relying on their daughters to make the right choices in their lives the locals have thrown in the towel on educating their young offspring and instead have elected to incentivize them to not get knocked up using the oldest trick in the book; cold hard cash.  I guess parturition is out of style.

We the taxpayer are now paying the young woman of North Carolina to not get pregnant.  Baby steps towards the Nanny State are in progress everywhere we look.   How about parents actually raising their kids right and instilling values like education instead of unprotected teenage sex?  Well history would argue and has proven that these young ladies do not possess the requisite mental facilities or the parental guidance to make the appropriate decisions and in the end actually end up costing us much more (as they typically can’t pay for their hospital bills or child care).  In an effort to stave off the rise of teenage pregnancies University of North Carolina, famously known for it’s dominate men’s basketball program, is quickly getting a reputation for sterilizing the locals. Or at least paying them not to procreate.  UNC is now serving as a wet blanket for Carolina teenage boys.

Come on, this looks like fun.  Plus side is now you have a little person to hang out with, not like you had friends anyway.

The group College-Bound Sisters that was founded at the University of North Carolina is paying girls 12-to-18-year-old girls $1 day to not get knocked up. “In addition to remaining pregnancy-free, the girls must also attend weekly meetings.The program is funded by a four-year grant from the state.”Our three goals are that they avoid pregnancy, graduate from high school and enroll in college,” Brown said.Under the program, $7 is deposited into an interest-bearing college fund that the girls can collect once they graduate high school.”

Great to see our tax payer money being put toward curbing future prostitution and the proliferation of welfare babies.  Now that I think about it this might not be a bad idea.  Is it too late to take back that whole men are better than woman diatribe?  Can we get a program like this active in our Hispanic communities in California and Arizona?  I swear to god it’s like a pinata has exploded in Southern California.  Last time I was at Disney Land the only white people at the park were the cartoon characters themselves.  Oh yeah and guess who pays for welfare baby after welfare baby produced by these social parasites?  Yeah you and me, the people who go to work, or are in school to get job and join the workforce that supports these prolific breeders.  Unfortunately when it comes to taxes you have no descretion on where that money goes.  Like Chris Rock said about taxes, “the government TAKES them. You get your check and money is GONE! It was not an option! That ain’t a payment, that’s a JACK!”

I don’t know about you but the first thing I think of when going on vacation or as our friends across the pond call it, “Holiday” is how can I reduce my carbon footprint? Alright, so I don’t.  However there seems to be a growing contingent of environmentally conscience, and no doubt repugnant, hippies who enjoy reducing their carbon foot print by exposing the rest of the world to their pink parts.  Yes, my friends it has come to this.  Going nude to Save The World.  There has to be another way.

“Going without clothes on beaches and other vacation spots is commonly called naturism — a description that implies helping the planet, as some practitioners claim to be doing.  Spending more time with nothing on stems waste and pollution in all sorts of ways, according to an article by Kathy Blanchard on The Naturist Society’s Web site.  “Living more hours naked each day results in a dramatic drop in my laundry, which in turn reduces my water and energy use (along with my related bills),” Ms. Blanchard wrote. “It also reduces the amount of soap I release, in my case, into the Puget Sound.”  She also advocates naturist holidays — staying close to home wherever possible, to cut down on fuel usage — but sometimes traveling to places where it is possible to leave the car behind and backpack or paddle naked into the wild.”

Nudist Holiday’s might be environmentally friendly but that doesn’t make them right.  Just keep it in the hotel room people.

Sorry the updates have been slow to come, new job, wedding planning, dog ate my homework.  So with everything going on from Sotomayor’s confirmation hearings to disappearing airplanes I thought it appropriate to slow things down and concentrate on what issue will impact us on a day to day basis; yep, Cell Phone Elbow. 

Orthopedic specialists are reporting cases of “cell phone elbow,” in which patients damage an essential nerve in their arm by bending their elbows too tightly for too long.  When cell phone users hold the phone to their ears, they stretch a nerve that extends underneath the funny bone and controls the smallest fingers. When talkers chat for a long time in that position, it “chokes the blood supply to the nerves. It makes the nerves short-circuit. The next thing you know, there’s tingling in the ring and small finger,” said Dr. Peter J. Evans, the director of the Hand and Upper Extremity Center at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, Ohio.  Ah, so it’s really not a Cell Phone Elbow rather it’s just phone elbow.  Wear a headset, problem solved and you look wicked cool.

So don’t hold your phone like this stupid cat, for long periods of time and you’ll be fine. 

Some couple in Nebraska have taken Jack in the Box’s Mini Sirloin burger commercial to comedic heights.  Actually their just selling small cattle apparently it’s a business.

“This couple bought minicows — compact cattle with stocky bodies, smaller frames and relatively tiny appetites.  Their miniature Herefords consume about half that of a full-sized cow yet produce 50% to 75% of the rib-eyes and fillets, according to researchers and budget-conscious farmers.”

“Minicows are not genetically engineered to be tiny, and they’re not dwarfs. They are drawn from original breeds brought to the U.S. from Europe in the 1800s that were smaller than today’s bovine giants…Big cows emerged as a product of the 1950s and ’60s, when farmers were focused on getting more meat and didn’t fret as much about the efficient use of animal feed or grasslands.” Tiny and bold, YA!

Alright, I’m back after a two week break.

A Chinese man, Chen, Tikki tikki tembo-no sa rembo-chari bari ruchi-pip peri pembo, Fuchao, “fell 26 feet (8 meters) onto a partially inflated emergency air cushion laid out by authorities and survived, suffering spine and elbow injuries, the official Xinhua News Agency said Saturday. The passer-by, 66-year-old Lai Jiansheng, had been fed up with what he called Chen’s “selfish activity,” Xinhua said. Traffic around the Haizhu bridge in the city of Guangzhou had been backed up for five hours and police had cordoned off the area. “I pushed him off because jumpers like Chen are very selfish. Their action violates a lot of public interest,” Imagine if you will the lawsuit that would cripple this man and the next 10 generations of his family if this incident were to occur in the U.S.

Lai was quoted as saying by Xinhua. “They do not really dare to kill themselves. Instead, they just want to raise the relevant government authorities’ attention to their appeals.”

Lai is changing my opinion of the Chinese one bad driver at a time.

Police officers, in an attempt to curb illegal street racing, are trying a new tactic by drag racing anybody who has $25 to their name and a Ford Tempo.  The police in Miami, “are redirecting people…from the street to the County Line Drag Way. The program is called Beat the Heat. Once a month, officers will race anyone over the age of 18 for $25.”

Yep, she does.  Actually this isn’t too surprising.  In fact I bet as the baby boomer generation decends into retirement age we will read more and more about Grandpa & Grandma so and so getting busted for selling drugs.   It beats playing bridge.

However in this case these two lovely ladies look like they’re a little more hard core than my nana.

Elizabeth Marie Grube, 70, and her 65-year-old sister, Elaine Volkert, are facing drug charges after being arrested on April 14.  Investigators said they seized 400 bags of heroin with a street value of $8,000 and more than $2,000 from the home of Grube in the 1000 block of Ehler Street.

Why? Everyone needs a job.  These ladies were TCB.

I don’t know why everyone’s down on Heroin? I mean compared to bulimia at least you keep your teeth.

I’ve written this blog on and off for over a year now and I’ve gotten hundreds of hate mail responses to different posts. Usually I write the author back to explain my point-of-view a little more thoroughly however in this case this guy is begging to be made an example of.

Here are Bryan the moron’s comments:
Bryan { 04.24.09 at 3:00 pm }

I love it, this article says they were asked to cover up all signs and symbols there….true. This website does NOT tell you that it had nothing to do with religious symbols, they wanted ALL signs and symbols removed for his normal backdrop of flags and a black background, like he does all the time, no matter where he speaks. If that was not bad enough, the writer of this drivel only giving you half the story, then askes you to “put that aside for a moment” and goes on a rant about a visit to a mosque which has NOTHING to do with the story…and never does go back to the White House explanation that was brushed aside to consider the mosque story. Anyone, like Anna Maria, who sucked right up to the teet of this obviously slanted, right wing-nut fringe “article” really need to go back to skool. And Anna has the nerve to call Obama supporters ignorant…..err, scuze me ignorent….or is it ig-nant?? Jesus Christ and Holy Cow some Amerikans are so gullible. For those of you that need assistance, gullible means you are a “sucker” incapable of critical thinking, taking one source as gospel and running with it.

Let’s first start with the fact that he spells his name with that insufferable Y in Bryan. This immediately discredits his take. However, for shits and giggles, let’s continue to evaluate the content of his comments.

He says that, “they (the White House) wanted ALL signs and symbols removed for his normal backdrop of flags and a black background, like he does all the time, no matter where he speaks.” OK, let’s examine this claim. All one needs to do is a simple search under President Obama Speeches and Google turns up literally dozens of pictures, like the one below, that run counter to this Mensa winners claim and he’s only 100 days or so into office.

Obama does not have a standardized podium ESPECIALLY when he addresses private audiences and when he visits foreign countries like the picture shows below. Thus the relevancy of my comparison to Barack’s visit to the Mosque and his speech in front of a Catholic audience.

Continuing on his blog bash Bryan states that it’s a bad thing that I, “rant about a visit to a mosque which has NOTHING to do with the story.” As previously described there is an actual linkage between the two, as they are both non political events. The point here is he would have found this out or known if he wasn’t blindy biased one way or another.

This is actually a point I’ve been wanting to make for some time now. Essentially his intellectual dishonestly is the problem with true ideologues. My sense is that Byran is a liberal based simply on the fact that all comments on this article espouse a response from the far Right or Left and oh yes, his facts are wrong.

The only redeeming quality in his comments is at the end of his pissy diatribe. Here he salvages some grace by stating that, “gullible means you are a “sucker” incapable of critical thinking, taking one source as gospel and running with it.”

He’s actually unwittingly a man of similiar thought though no doubt poorer taste. What he’s trying to tell me, although making a half ass attempt at it, is that the essential problem with politics is the tendency towards two fringe points of view.

This isn’t surprising because understanding ONLY two sides of an issue is marketable and simple. We elect officials to represent us because we do not have time to study all the relevant issues, hold a job, and live a normal life. The media and political parties on both sides understand this and whittle down the arguments into two neat, polar opposites because we don’t have time to study the gray area (nor do most of us care). Thus political parties produce John Kerry’s and George Bush’s when it’s so obvious these are not qualified men and not the leaders when NEED.

My point is what if absolute consistency on any issue from the right or the left, Socialism to Capitalism, from the religiously devout to secular is an indication of mediocre intelligence and lack of intellectual purity? Then that would make Washington a den of mediocrity and Bryan incapable of intellectual honesty.

The Obama Administration allows different backgrounds based on where he’s speaking at hence my reasoning for questioning the physical covering of a religious symbol at a religious univeristy where he accepted the invitation to speak. Obama’s speech was not an address to Congress, the media, or the American people this was an address to a private, religious audience (or at least one can assume a highly religious audience) therefore IT IS surprising that his office has purposely chosen to cover the symbol for Christ.

This definitely qualifies as madness material.  A man in Florida got in a tiff with his boyfriend and in an attempt to end the relationship called the police with the intention to punch an officer and get deported back to Mexico. Authorities said a man claiming to be an illegal immigrant ran naked down a Port St. Lucie street so that he would be sent back to Mexico…He was charged with indecent exposure and being held for immigration officials.

Divinely inspired no doubt
