Kill Them, or Give Them a Lawyer

Ever wonder why we kill some would-be terrorist, and give others a lawyer. Because that is how justice is applied.

Tell Cheney to read The New York Times, What’s Our Line?, and the constitution if he has one (which I doubt),

Teabaggers Unite!

Naive-ocrats and Republi-Cons, beware -- the peasants are angry. Read The New York Times, An Uneasy Feeling.

And the tea party movement is now more popular than either sorry party, but will it become a major force in American politics? Read The New York Times, The Tea Party Teens.

Color Me Not Surprised

More naughty Banksters making foobs of us, again. Read The New York Times, Fannie’s Christmas Eve Surprise.

The Frog and Golf

A man goes out golfing.

He is on the second hole when he notices a frog sitting next to the green.

He thinks nothing of it and is about to shoot when he hears, "Ribbit 9 Iron."

The man looks around and doesn't see anyone. Again, he hears, "Ribbit 9 Iron."

He looks at the frog and decides to prove the frog wrong, puts the club away, and grabs a 9 iron.

Boom! He hits it 10 inches from the cup. He is shocked and says "Wow that's amazing. You must be a lucky frog."

The frog replies, "Ribbit Lucky frog."

The man decides to take the frog with him to the next hole.

"What do you think frog?" the man asks.

"Ribbit 3 wood."

The guy takes out a 3 wood and Boom! Hole in one.

The man is befuddled and doesn't know what to say.

By the end of the day, the man golfed the best game of golf in his life and asks the frog, "OK where to next?"

The frog replies, "Ribbit Las Vegas."

"They go to Las Vegas and the guy says, "OK frog, now what?"

The frog says, "Ribbit Roulette."

Upon approaching the roulette table, the man asks, "What do you think I should bet?"

The frog replies, "Ribbit $3000, black 6."

Now, this is a million-to-one shot to win, but after the golf game the man figures what the heck.

Boom! Tons of cash comes sliding back across the table.

The man takes his winnings and buys the best room in the hotel.

He sits the frog down and says, "Frog, I don't know how to repay you. You've won me all this money and I am forever grateful."

The frog replies, "Ribbit Kiss Me."

He figures why not, since after all the frog did for him, he deserves it.

With a kiss, the frog turns into a gorgeous girl.

"And that is how the girl ended up in my room Elin. So help me God or my name is not Tiger Woods."

Religious War Anyone?

Some have suggested strip seaches and separate lines for Muslims.

But should Muslims be banned, as some have suggested, from all U.S. air travel?

And more than half of the people who took an online poll said yes!

It's called guilty by association. Is it appropriate? What do you think?

We'll be discussing this on Friday at NoBullU on 1330 WEBY.

The Congressional Reform Act of 2010

1. Term Limits: 12 years only, one of the possible options below.
A. Two Six year Senate terms
B. Six Two year House terms

2. No Tenure / No Pension: A congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they are out of office.

Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to work.


3. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security: All funds in the Congressional retirement fund moves to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, Congress participates with the American people.

Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to work.


4. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan just as all Americans.

Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to work.

Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to work.


8. All contracts with past and present congressmen are void effective 1/1/2011. The American people did not make this contract with congressmen, congressmen made all these contracts for themselves.

Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to work.


I can't think of a reason to disagree.

If you agree with the above, pass it on.

Unusual Talent

This video shows the winner of " Ukraine’s Got Talent", Kseniya Simonova, 24, drawing a series of pictures on an illuminated sand table showing how ordinary people were affected by the German invasion during World War II. Her talent, which admittedly is a strange one, is mesmeric to watch:



She begins by creating a scene showing a couple sitting holding hands on a bench under a starry sky, but then warplanes appear and the happy scene is obliterated.

It is replaced by a woman’s face crying, but then a baby arrives and the woman smiles again. Once again war returns and Ms. Simonova throws the sand into chaos from which a young woman’s face appears.

She quickly becomes an old widow, her face wrinkled and sad, before the image turns into a monument to an Unknown Soldier.

This outdoor scene becomes framed by a window as if the viewer is looking out on the monument from within a house.

In the final scene, a mother and child appear inside and a man standing outside, with his hands pressed against the glass, saying goodbye..

The Great Patriotic War, as it is called in Ukraine , resulted in one in four of the population being killed with eight to 11 million deaths out of a population of 42 million.

Ms. Simonova is reported to have said: "I find it difficult enough to create art using paper and pencils or paintbrushes, but using sand and fingers is beyond me. The art, especially when the war is used as the subject matter, even brings some audience members to tears. And there’s surely no bigger compliment."

She won the top prize of 1,000,000 Ukrainian Hryvnia (about $125,000).

Happy New Year

UPDATE: The year in review, from JibJab:




Year and decade in review:

For some cute YouTube videos, try the Washington Post, Best and worst of 2009: Internet finds.

For a look back at some of the really, truly bad ideas of this past decade, read the Washington Post, The Worst Ideas of the Decade.

And all kidding aside, did Tiger Woods, "whose sham beatific image was questioned by no one until it collapsed," exemplify the decade?

Merry Xmas from Elin and Tiger!

UPDATE IV: A new family-less Christmas card from Tiger:




UPDATE III: And more Tiger humor:



And just in time for Christmas, the Tiger Woods Mistress Commemorative Plate Collection:




UPDATE II: Source unknown:

Al Sharpton Blasts Tiger Woods for Lack of Mistress Diversity

The Rev. Al Sharpton held a press conference today to blast Tiger Woods for the lack of diversity among his mistresses. Sharpton claims that the lack of African-American women among Woods' harem will have a negative affect on the black community, specifically young black girls.

"Why is it that a man who calls himself black can't bring himself to cheat on his wife with a black woman?" said Sharpton, speaking to a group of supporters in Harlem. "What does it say to young black girls everywhere when you pass them over? Shame on you, Tiger Woods. What would your daddy say?"

Sharpton, who has long championed taking black women as mistresses, said that today's black athletes need to stop neglecting black women when it comes to extramarital affairs, and should follow the examples of positive black role models such as Jesse Jackson and Martin Luther King, Jr., both of whom cheated on their wives with black women. Sharpton also stressed that cheating with African-American women would help the black community financially by giving black girls the chance to sell their stories to tabloids and gossip magazines.

Added Sharpton, "I'm not asking you to not cheat on your wives, I'm just asking you to give back to your own community."


UPDATE: Some more jokes:

Tiger's trouble started when he made a rookie error by playing the wrong hole. Followed that up with a bad drive and ended up in a horrible "lie."

What is the difference between Santa Clause and Tiger Woods?
Santa Clause stops at 3 Ho's.

Ping just offered Elin Woods an endorsement contract pushing her own set of drivers.
They said to named Elin Woods..."clubs you can beat Tiger with."

News travels fast. The Chinese are already making a movie about Tiger Woods' crash. They are calling it, "Scratching Swede, Lying Tiger," or how about "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Hydrant"?

What do you buy a Tiger for Christmas?
A new windshield!

Tiger crashed his car because he was in a rush to move on to the second hole.

Just because you're the world's no. 1 golfer, it doesn't mean you can't be beaten by your wife.

Tiger Woods wasn't seriously injured in the crash, but he's still below par

What were Tiger Woods and his wife doing out at 2.30 in the morning?
They went clubbing.


"Comedian Chris Rock undoubtedly put it best when he said, 'A man is only as faithful as his options.'"

From a friend:



And what would Christmas be without a few jokes:

What's the difference between a golf ball and an Escalade?
Tiger can drive a gold ball 400 yards.

Police asked Tiger's wife how many times she hit him.
She said, "I don't know, 5 or 6 . . . put me down for a 5."

Elin found out he’s not a Tiger, he’s a Cheetah.

Elin Nordegren got hired today as a consultant.
She’s teaching Phil Mickelson how to beat Tiger.

What do baby seals and Tiger Woods have in common?
Both were clubbed by a Scandanavian.

Tiger Woods is tree under.

Tiger Woods has been dropped by Gilette after admitting this incident was his closest shave ever.

Tiger Woods crashed into a fire hydrant and a tree.
He couldn't decide between a wood and an iron.

Test Your Power of Observation

Take a quiz about things you see every day.

Why Women Can't Sleep

Have you ever wondered how a woman's brain works? Well it's finally explained here in one, easy-to-understand illustration:



Every one of those little blue balls is a thought about something that needs to be done, a decision, or a problem that needs to be solved NOW.

In comparison, a man only has only two balls and, basically, they consume all his thoughts, if you know what I mean.

A Republi-CON Prayer for Merry Misfortune

I thought the Republi-cons opposed filibusters and favored up-or-down votes in the Senate. Not any more. Now, they hope for misfortune on a Democrat or two, perhaps one of them might die. Read the Washington Post, An ugly finale for health-care reform.

If that fails, there is always the 2010 election strategy:

More CONservative CONspiracies

With talk of civil war and stockpiling survival gear, would you vote to elect someone like this for President?

This guy was the the presidential nominee of the Constitution Party for the 2008 U.S. Presidential election.
