Monday, September 28th, 2009What is it with my family and hospitals? By the time you read this, the missus and I will once again be at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, this time for our 19-month old son, Kevin (above). We have to go down there for an evaluation of the little guy’s, eh, plumbing. Like Kyle before him, [...]
“Well, The World Needs Ditch Diggers, Too”
Monday, September 28th, 2009Wow, that looks like the making of a kickass roller coaster. The US unemployment rate rose from 7.6% to 9.7% under Obama… the highest rate in 26 years. Obama said with the Stimulus Bill the unemployment rate would not go over 8% but the unemployment rate is currently at 9.7%. That’s not all… The youth [...]
An Important Message From David Paterson
Sunday, September 27th, 2009So get this. President Obama saw fit to suggest that New York Governor David Paterson not run for reelection. This is understandable, since Paterson’s poll numbers have been doing a skydive. Unfortunately for all involved, Obama’s people told Paterson that he shouldn’t run. Paterson, ever the media whore, throw a hissy fit, and a full-fledged [...]
Color Me Comical
Sunday, September 27th, 2009So, I was looking for something new for the blog, when a reader turned me on to “Monkey and Bird.” It’s a comic strip written and illustrated by local folks, and with their permission, I am posting the link to the new portion every weekend. I figure if Captain America can post Police Limit, I [...]
It’s Hockey Day!
Sunday, September 27th, 2009Tonight is our ice hockey preseason debut. We were supposed to play on Thursday but were bumped for some punk college kids. Hopefully, that won’t happen again, or I’ll have to go up there with a sharpened hockey stick. After yesterday’s NASCAR race, I have a little cold, but I should be okay for playing. [...]
Obama To McChrystal Report: Drop Dead
Sunday, September 27th, 2009Hey, remember that additional troop request by General McChrystal last week? The Obama administration is putting the urgent request on their summer reading list. Summer of 2010, I suppose. After everyone else had heard what General Stanley McChrystal needs for his mission to succeed in Afghanistan, the Obama administration took official custody today of the [...]
Kill A Man, Jarro!
Saturday, September 26th, 2009You may want to set your faces to “stunned.” LOS ANGELES – When Jessica Biel, Lupe Fiasco and Isabel Lucas get together in Africa, they’ll have nowhere to go but up. The entertainers have signed on to climb the continent’s highest peak — Mount Kilimanjaro, at more than 19,000 feet — to raise awareness about [...]
Epic FAIL
Saturday, September 26th, 2009Dude. Ya know, it’s bad enough that a lot of people and most of the media despise police officers, but now they are going to give out money when one of us is shot? What the frak? Reader Chris Kuhner sent me this, and after I was finished wrapping me head in duct tape, I [...]
Boogity, Boogity, Boogity!
Saturday, September 26th, 2009By the time you read this, I’ll already be here: Today, my friend Bill and I are taking Kyle and Erik to their very first live NASCAR race at Dover International Speedway. We’ll be seeing the Nationwide Series, which is the minor leagues of NASCAR – think Camden Riversharks, NFL Europe, or the Cleveland Indians. [...]
It’s Funny When It Happens To Them
Saturday, September 26th, 2009God, I love Hot Air. Especially because of stories like this: With all of the media handwringing about the potential for violence at Congressional town-hall meetings in Augutst — potential only realized when unions and counterprotesters began attacking ObamaCare opponents — one has to marvel at the lack of any such speculation at the G-20 [...]
