Bama Shows It’s (cl)ASS…again.

Well, the honeymoon’s over in Tuscaloosa. As a good friend stated so eloquently on www.thesportsbean.com (check the archives section), Bama fans gave Nick Saban four games to win the National Championship, he didn’t and things are back to normal in “T-town.” After Georgia scored the winning touchdown in overtime, the Tide faithful showered the visiting Bulldog players [...]

Al Gore, modern da Vinci.

Just when we thought it was safe to open the windows, Al Gore has come out of his hole.  Apparently, he can’t stand turning on the TV, or opening a magazine, and not seeing himself predicting the doom of the planet (even though just a few years ago the same global warming fanatics were warning of [...]

1st Nominee for Idiot of the Year.

Stupidity can sometimes be relative. I may consider someone stupid that you may not, but surely we can all agree that Matt Wilkinson, of Portland, OR, is this week’s (month’s, year’s) winner of the Mr. Stupid contest. <link here> Mr. Wilkinson, who will obviously never hold a job at NASA, thought that it would be a [...]

The Emmy Awards, Idiots in Review.

Is it not amazing, that year after year in a room filled with “great” acting talent, people praised for their skill and realism in the portraying of “ordinary people,” stand in front of the world and willingly show that they are almost illiterate and incapable of speaking coherently unless their lines are written for them? Here are some [...]

A Better New Orleans.

An article today on latimes.com, is lamenting the demographic shift in New Orleans in the aftermath of Katrina. The studies show that New Orleans’ black population dropped 57% a year after Hurricane Katrina, while the white population declined 36%.  Furthermore, the analysis painted a picture of post-Katrina New Orleans as a city notably whiter, older [...]

National Day of Nookie.

Here in America we get holidays off, in Russia people get off on holidays!  Gov. Sergei Morozov has decreed Sept. 12 a Day of Conception and is giving couples time off from work to procreate. Couples who give birth nine months later on Russia’s national day (June 12) will receive money, cars, refrigerators and other [...]

Hail to the Victors, Vanquished—CFB Week 2.

It is painfully obvious, that while Michigan has talented players, speed, size and skill, the two things they don’t have are heart and coaching.  A couple of scores by Oregon, and the Maize & Blue rolled over and played dead. Any doubt that Lloyd Carr was gone at the end of the year has been [...]

Cut-rate Air Fares

I have searched my memory and cannot recall ever reading or hearing about a crash involving Nepal Airlines, and now I know why.  Officials at Nepal’s state-run airline have sacrificed two goats to appease Akash Bhairab, the Hindu sky god, following technical problems with one of its Boeing 757 aircraft, the carrier said Tuesday. “The [...]

Money won’t fix New Orleans.

As much as I dislike cutting and pasting articles to my site, there is no possible way for me to improve on, or better state, the article that is copied below. This should be a must read for every tax-payer.

Remember the Mountaineers & CFB Week 1 Observations.

                                 
Perhaps there have been bigger upsets than Appalachian State’s defeat of Michigan, the US Olympic hockey victory over the Soviets in 1980 comes to mind, or Chaminade’s win over Ralph Sampson and Virginia, but even those improbable wins don’t equal what transpired in Ann Arbor on Saturday.  Thirty years from now, this game will be remembered in locker [...]
