Congress Staffers Gain on Green Stock Bets; Brett Favre Apologizes to Vikings; A Michelangelo In Buffalo; Seniors Get No Social Security Raise

11 Oct 2010

Congressional Staffers Make Big Gains On 'Green' Stock Bets:
Washington, D.C.

Well, isn't that just peachy keen!
It doesn't sound like much of a risky business bet to me either.

I guess all it takes is a savvy Congressional staffer to lay out a pile of cash to bet on the stock of what ever companies their Congressman or Senator boss is supporting legislation for... and Presto... the stock price magically goes UP!!!

Wow, that's a nice 'insider' gig if you can get it.

Too bad the Congressmen and their staffers don't let us little guys in on what companies they will push for... we might be able to magically double our money in a short time, too!

These staffers are apparently just 'bigger crook wannabees'... give them a little more time and practice and maybe they'll be right up there with their bosses... eh, Senator Harry Reid?

Brett Favre Apologizes To His Team For Scandal Distraction:
Minnesota Vikings

Is there going to be any 'fire' behind these 'smoking hot' girls' allegations of steamy lewd photos and masseuse seductions?

Brett has apologized to his teammates for the distraction this scandal is causing in the media... but he hasn't quite fully and straight-forwardly come out and denied all the accusations yet either!

Just like Tiger Woods' deep fall from grace with the sporting public... you hate to see an icon and heroic football role model suffer the same fate.

BUT... IF it turns out to be all or mostly true... come on guys ---
can't you just leave your pants on and go hire a DISCREET bombshell hooker for a $1,000-per-night fling to get it out of your system???

WHY be a sex-blinded dummy and risk your family, your career, and your reputation just for a few rolls in the hay?

When you are as rich as these big sports icons, you can have the best and sexiest girls money can buy... so why be stupid and hang your 'wienie" out where some sleazy media guy will gladly come along and help you chop it off for you?

Brett... we just hope it ain't so!!!

A Michelangelo Found Behind A Couch:
Buffalo, NY

I must be living wrong... or my Karma is against me... all I find behind my couch are candy wrappers, dust bunnies and the TV remote!

Kudos and congrats to that family! They were literally sitting on (or beside) an original, unfinished Michelangelo painting of the Pieta, a Madonna with Jesus painting... valued at possibly 300 million dollars!!!

It hung on the family wall for many years until hit by a tennis ball as family kids played inside. They wrapped it up and sorta forgot about it behind the couch.

Recent inquiries and professional evaluations are pretty much declaring this to be a "lost Pieta" done by Michelangelo in 1545!

Wowza... what a way to end the 2010 year for that family!
(Maybe it's not too late for them to adopt me.)

Senior Citizens Get No Social Security Raise in 2010, AGAIN:

Lookout Democrats... and the rest of you in Congress on all sides of the aisle!

You have just pissed off 58 million Senior Citizens by NOT giving any social security income increase for a second year in a row!!!

It's not nice to poke this sleeping giant of the gray-haired demographic.

Many of them live only on that monthly paycheck... and all other costs seem to continue going up in price: food, housing, gasoline, insurances, and on and on!

It seems Congress can certainly find a way to get their own big, annual 'automatic' pay raises... why couldn't they squeeze out (or use a 'bail out' for) a measly 1 or 2 percent increase in social security?

They (our beloved Congressmen and Senators) throw away, donate, waste and/or spend billions of dollars for thousands of earmark projects.

WHY NOT spend some money on these 58 million needy Americans who helped build and keep America the greatest country in the World???

*** Vote this current bunch of bums out in November... maybe that will finally get somebody's attention in Washington, DC. ***

Trapped Miners in Chile; Harry Reid is Starting To Sweat; Date Rape Overdoses; UFOs over China

10 Oct 2010...

"Trapped Miners in Chile":
San Jose Mine, Chile

It's great to start the day off with good news for a change... the escape hole punched thru to the 33 miners trapped 2,000 feet below the surface - this is a full 2 months sooner than anyone ever expected!!!

The miners will probably start being rescued sometime around next Wednesday. It will take quite a while to get them all out 1 at a time, each riding that 2,000 feet up in a small escape capsule. A paramedic is planned to go down into the chamber the men are trapped in when the rescue capsule is first lowered; to give first aid and initial relief.

Although they have suffered for a couple months being trapped down there, everyone is relatively healthy and they have become sort of local heroes in their country. Apparently book, television and maybe even movie deals are rumored in the works.

Godspeed and a safe return is wished for all the trapped miners and their tireless rescuers.

"Harry Reid Is Getting Nervous!"
Democrat HQ, Nevada

What's the matter with Harry?
Is he starting to sweat yet?
Is he showing any regret yet?
Is he worried about the polls yet?
YOU BET!!!

The numbers are starting to go more consistently AGAINST him... and FOR his Senate-seat challenger Sharron Angle!

Just maybe Harry Reid, the current (for a short time more) Senate Majority Leader, is starting to see the blood writing on the wall... and it doesn't look good to him. He is throwing up millions of dollars in ad money to wage a negative, mudslinging campaign against Ms. Angle... since he has nothing to brag about of good substance for his own actual deeds.

Looks like all the jamming-down-our-throats and backroom arm-twisting to force expensive deals and bills through is going to finally catch up to Mr. Reid and dozens of his fellow Democrat henchmen.

3 November can't get here soon enough for us down-trodden taxpayers... who are going to vote da bums OUT!!!

"Dozens of Freshmen Have Date Rape Overdoses"
Central Washington University, Washington

Dozens of young college Freshmen, nearly 30 girls (and even a few guys), were treated at the hospital for an overdose of an unknown drug (probably roofies) that was spiked in their drinks at a college party this weekend!

No suspects are arrested yet... but, they deserve the worst of what is coming to them.

If you can't get a girl any other way... well, you are always going to be such a creepy "loser" the rest of your life.

And the way you spiked everybody's drinks was VERY dangerous and cowardly!!!

A true loser to the end... I hope they throw the key away to your jail cell once they catch and convict you!

Oh, but wait, there is a silver lining in this jail-time situation for you...

at least you will get PLENTY of ready-and-willing "sex dates" for your young butt while you're in the slammer... and you won't even need a date-rape drug!!!

"UFOs Buzzing Around China?"
Inner Mongolia, China

Look... up in the sky! It's a Bird... no, it's a Plane... No, it's a flock of UFOs buzzing around the night skies of China!!!

What is up with that? What does China have that we don't have? We want some UFOs too!

This recent sighting caused several airliners to be diverted to other airports and even closed the local airport for an hour or so... but, aren't the Chinese officials a little bit worried or maybe even a little bit curious?

This was the 8th time since June 2010 for UFO encounters over Chinese airspace... and no real apparent concerns!

Something must be up the sleeves of those tricky Chinese communists... but why can't they hide their experimental planes a little better and stop scaring their locals.

We better keep an eye on those rascals... they are up to something... maybe an alien resort or spa... or maybe a hot new alien vacation destination!!!
