Rambler 33

Dr. appointments remind me of that Middle Eastern Country: Que Wait.

An item on The Discovery Channel revealed that it takes 10,000 years for water molecules to move from the British highlands to Bath England where they surface. Think of the long lasting effects of pollution being implemented today in landfills. What legacies are we leaving for future generations?

Knotts is trying to supplement its jelly/jam revenues by converting some of its idle land into a high priced cemetery. The new venture will be a separate company known as Knotts Bury Firm.

Look at the high pay provided our elected officials in DC. Combine this with their medical coverage, retirement plans and other benefits and ask yourself the question: “Are we getting our money’s worth?”

After 40 years behind the stage giving cues, Adam Lypsync has published his book: “The Hoarse Whisperer.”

I would like to read the lobbyists’ buylaws for senators and congressmen.

Dr. Ballard, the famed oceanographer, negotiated a rate on a deep ocean submersible. He said the hourly rate was fine, but they had to drop the depth charge.

Let me see if I understand this correctly. The government is taking a trillion that we don’t have to provide money to banks to improve the flow of credit. If we don’t have the money to begin with, doesn’t that imply the trillion will have to be loaned to us? This trillion will also result in $50-60 billion a year in ongoing interest costs. So we are taking money we don’t have to provide money to banks that don’t have sufficient money? And this will ease the credit crunch? I am messmerized by the math.

We have the gall to ask Iraq why their government isn’t making faster progress when it was modeled after our government?

I may have to stop writing satire; I am feeling a disturbance in the farce.

A new discipline has been established in the political science curriculum concentrating on the study of vice presidents-palintology.

The National Witches Coven has asked Microsoft to upgrade “Spell Check.” They want the hexadecimal version.

A group of failed bridge builders is forming a support group. There will be a special about this on C-Span.

To conserve energy stereo will not longer be allowed. We will revert to monaural. If you are against this policy, please sound off.

During King Arthur’s Times, did any of the knights work free lance?
