A reader just e-mailed this. I spend a lot of time in airports. I have learned to say thanks. This will make it even easier.

Those greedy health care insurance companies…

March 22nd, 2010 · 1 Comment

are all seeing a 3% to 6% increase in the value of their stock this morning. That’s what happens when millions of new customers are about to be forced into the market place. Think of all those overpaid executives and their stock options. Time to buy a new resort home. Same, by the way, with [...]

Random thoughts on the health care changes

March 22nd, 2010 · 16 Comments

Ok, I’m up coughing, so I might as well do something. — It frustrates me to no end when I hear liberals whine about what’s being called the Tea Party. The latest babble is that Tea Partiers don’t even know what’s in the health care bill – they can’t articulate what they are against. Pooey. [...]

But President Obama promised!

March 21st, 2010 · 3 Comments

That’s right folks. The votes have started and the reluctant Dems have joined the mob because President Obama promised an executive order to make everything better. Just remember, Obama promised to close Gitmo. He promised to get us out of Iraq. He promised transparency in the process. They are going to be so surprised and [...]

So what’s in it for you?

March 19th, 2010 · 11 Comments

America is either on the verge of something great or about to jump off a cliff depending upon your perspective. Flipping channels I heard one of those MSNBC types proclaim something along the lines that “at long last America will have universal health care.” Huh? While no one is certain what’s in the mess they’ll [...]

Brookfield stinks

March 16th, 2010 · 6 Comments

This is my annual complaint against open burning. What a lovely spring day – except for the acrid smell and pollution burning my eyes. Brookfield’s supposed to be sooo sophisticated. We’re sooo much cooler than those other communities. Yet we allow open burning of waste. That stinks. Don’t expect same and samer* to offer much [...]

Great. Let’s immortalize yet another drugged-up Hollywood loser.

March 10th, 2010 · 1 Comment

Another actor overdosed. Ok, I’m being mean about it, but I prefer to think of it as natural selection. Still, according to the real news, I’m supposed to be all interested and everything. At what point to we tell those news establishments that they are feeding us the wrong stories? We need the option to [...]

Barrett and Walker fight over who will create the most jobs

March 9th, 2010 · 1 Comment

Lucky me. I’m back on gubernatorial candidate Scott Walker’s e-mail list. I must have been very good. Anyway, the latest banter is over which candidate will create the most jobs. (See Walker and Barrett.) News flash to you two numskulls. Politicians don’t create jobs, business owners do. People called entrepreneurs who actually take risks instead [...]

The census is coming!

March 8th, 2010 · 7 Comments

At least that’s what the letter in my mailbox today explained. Do you have a plan for answering those questions? Now let me say I’m really usually not considered an idiot, but after muddling through this census information, I sure feel like one. I want to know, and simply can not find out, how much [...]
