Harrumph Day


In Bristol (pseudo virgin) Palin’s memoir, “Not Afraid Of Life,” she tells how she lost her virginity.  I don’t understand that term.  To say that you lost your virginity implies that someday you might find it again.  At one point in the book she laments that Levi Johnson, her boy friend, has “stolen” her virginity.  Once again that seems to insinuate that maybe she can get it back.  I don’t think so. 


Senator John (I'm just a grumpy old man) McCain is blaming the Arizona wildfires on illegal immigrants. He offered no evidence or proof to back up his statement.  He also said he was pretty sure they were involved in the housing meltdown and financial collapse of 2008, his not winning the Presidential election, the Arizona Cardinals not making the NFL play-offs last year, the national deficit,  the tsunami in Japan, the high cost of gasoline, most of this year’s tornados and 9/11.  John said he first began mistrusting the Latin Americans when he fought in the Spanish American War of 1898.


A dating website called Beautiful People.com has just dumped 30,000 people because they say the applicants did not meet their standard of beauty.  Let’s see, you are on a dating website because you can’t meet anyone on your own and now the website rejects you because you are just too damn ugly.

The website notified everyone they dumped by email. Here is a copy of an email they sent out: “Dear Anthony Weiner. When we asked for head shots, we meant a picture of your face."


Newton Leroy (Where’d everybody go?) Gingrich’s campaign finance team resigned this week following last week’s resignation of his entire campaign staff. Nitwit has vowed he will continue his run for the Presidency and that he and his chief adviser, Cruella ( I love the smell of Tiffany's in the morning) Gingrich, will continue to shop for voters until they drop.



JP Morgan Chase  has agreed to pay $153.6 million to settle civil fraud charges that it misled buyers of complex mortgage investments just as the housing market was collapsing. That is a little less than what JP Morgan makes in a week.  Yeah. that’ll teach em’.


What? The Supreme Court sides with Big Business…Who would have ever thought  that they would side with Wal-Mart?  A couple of years ago Big Business was too big to fail; now Big Business is too big to sue.



Today's good read is Sweet Jiminy by Kristin Gore.  An excellent novel about a southern born law student opening up a decades-old murder that took place during the Civil Rights movement.


Stay tuned for future adventures.
