Unemployment news not in the news.....from Rico
This is some ugly unemployment news that is pretty much being 'ignored' in the news. Go figure! The Pravda-esque media...er, Ministry of Truth...doesn't want to make "the Won" look bad, or to scare you.
Since the gooberment 'jiggered' the way unemployment numbers were calculated in the 1990's (to make the numbers seem lower) there has been a iscrepancy between fantasy and reality, phony and actual.
And while only 20% of American adults between 21-65 have a bachelors degree or higher, they are still far better off now than the rest of the population re: unemployment but I do not expect to see any headlines saying "Stupid and lazy hit hardest by unemployment" anytime soon.
- I am already seeing headlines crowing that college graduates are being "hit" as if our beloved media was celebrating like Palestinians that "now 'they' are getting their just desserts, aren't they?" Just like tax-the-rich, the socialists hate accomplishment and achievement and are positively gleeful when they have the opportunity to tear-down rather than build-up.

War Song: (Original song: Your Song by Elton John)
It’s a little bit sickening this feeling inside
As the planes both came from out of the skies
They hit the Trade Centre and boy it was big
The day that hell came to where we live
He says he’s religious, but then again no
Osama Bin Laden and his bloodthirsty show
Shouting with joy that his God is so great
The dead are the victims of all his hate
And he will blame everybody, this is his way
He’s gone and killed so many but still he’s not done
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words
How sad are the tears now all through the world
I sat in my lounge turned down the sound
I saw so many buildings been razed to the ground
But the world’s been so kind, it’s been so strong
As we wait for survivors to come back home
So excuse me for speaking but these things I feel
I’m still not sure if what I saw was real
Anyway the thing is, what I really mean
This was the saddest thing I've ever seen.
And he will blame everybody, this is his way
He’s gone and killed so many but still he’s not done
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind that I put down in words
How sad are the tears now all through the world
I hope you don’t mind, I hope you don’t mind
That I put down in words
How sad are the tears now all through the world

Senior Golfer Rules Changes........
Rule 1.a.5
A ball sliced or hooked into the rough shall be lifted and placed on the fairway at a point equal to the distance it carried or rolled into the rough with no penalty. The senior should not be penalized for tall grass which ground keepers failed to mow.
Rule 2.d.6 (b)
A ball hitting a tree shall be deemed not to have hit the tree. This is simply bad luck and luck has no place in a scientific game. The senior player must estimate the distance the ball would have traveled if it had not hit the tree and play the ball from there.
Rule 3.b.3(g)
There shall be no such thing as a lost ball. The missing ball is on or near the course and will eventually be found and pocketed by someone else, making it a stolen ball. The player is not to compound the felony by charging himself or herself with a penalty.
Rule 4.c.7(h)
If a putt passes over a hole without dropping, it is deemed to have dropped. The law of gravity supersedes the Rules of Golf.
Rule 5.
Putts that stop close enough to the cup that they could be blown in, may be blown in. This does not apply to balls more than three inches from the hole. No one wants to make a travesty of the game.
Rule 6.a.9(k)
There is no penalty for so-called "out of bounds." If penny-pinching golf course owners bought sufficient land, this would not occur. The senior golfer deserves an apology, not a penalty.
Rule 7.g.15(z)
There is no penalty for a ball in a water hazard, as golf balls should float. Senior golfers should not be penalized for manufacturers' shortcomings.
Rule 8.k.9(s)
Advertisements claim that golf scores can be improved by purchasing new golf equipment. Since this is financially impractical for many senior golfers, one stroke per hole may be subtracted for using old equipment.
Please advise all your senior friends of these important rule changes. Carry a copy with you at all times, to refer to with those non seniors.

UGLY...............from Rico
The magic unicorns, butterflys and rainbows of Obamaland are turning ugly.
Change? Well, we got it allright...and it's going to continue getting worse!
- Unprecedented, massive existing and (coming soon) taxpayer back-breaking additional debt.
- Foreign reluctance to buying...make that backing away from US debt.
- Declining productivity. GDP is trending down and Unemployment trending up.
- Unrestrained money printing. Like a masive sugar 'rush' a crash is coming, and it's gonna be painful. Turning the once solid greenback into monopoly funny money was NOT a bright idea.
I'd say more but no need to, since we're all so obviously 'living the dream' that Obama and his Democrat (C) cronies created for us (don't believe for a minute that this is all the eeevil Boosh's fault and that ObaMarx 'inherited' it from him...who has controlled Congress and the purse strings since 2006? Bingo! The Democrats (C). The First Comrade inherited this mess from them). Don't be distracted by.....Hey! Look at the grouse!!!
Look at the chart attached. I see no 'green shoots' of recovery. In fact, all the indicators are bad, despite bloviations from the Media, er...Ministry of Truth.

Three "Joe's"................from Rico
So the progressive "Left" is having a snit because JOE Wilson, the Rep from SC had the audacity to say the truth out loud..."YOU LIE"...while the Won Obama lied through his, er teeth to Congress and America about ObamaCare.
- Apparently no one in the Democrat Party (C) remembers their partisan booing of Bush during his State of the Union speech.
JOE Biden is miffed about a breach of decorum in Congress. Eff me. Decorum among that nest of thieves, liars, crooks and political whores? From one of the more embarrassing former members of that elevated chamber? Gimme a break!
The good and truthful JOE W., like another JOE...Joe the plumber, will be excoriated in the collective media Pravda lovefest already ensuing. Punishment for telling the truth.
- Instead of debating the merits and the facts of the latest "for our own good, but we're too dumb to know it" whackjob Socialist-Communist the Left is trying to ram up our, er throats the Obamunist reaction is their typical Stalinesque "smash the dissenter" kneejerk.
Excluding that asshole Biden, like with Joe-the-plumber, we're ALL Joe's today. I'm a Joe, and I'm getting really pissed-off about now!
- You other "Joe's" should be too!
So three Joe's? Nawwww. Better make that a nation of Joe's!
A week at the gym - One man's story
Dear Diary:
For my fortieth birthday this year, my wife (the dear) purchased a week of personal training at the local health club for me. Although I am still in great shape since playing on my college football team 25yrs ago, I decided it would be a good idea to go ahead and give it a try.
I called the club and made my reservation with a personal trainer named Belinda, who identified herself as a 26 yr old aerobics instructor and model for athletic clothing and swimwear. My wife seemed pleased with my enthusiasm to get started! The club encouraged me to keep a diary to chart my progress
MONDAY
Started my day at 6:00am
Tough to get out of bed, but it was well worth it when I arrived at the health club to find Belinda waiting for me. She was something of a Greek goddess – with blonde hair, dancing eyes and a dazzling white smile. Woo Hoo!!!!!
She took my pulse after 5 minutes on the treadmill. She was alarmed that my pulse was so fast, but I attributed it to standing next to her in her Lycra aerobics outfit. I enjoyed watching the skilful way in which she conducted her aerobics class after my workout today. Very inspiring, Belinda was encouraging as I did my sit-ups, although my gut was already aching from holding it in the whole time she was around. This is going to be a FANTASTIC week!!
TUESDAY:
I drank a whole pot of coffee, but I finally made it out the door.
Belinda made me lie on my back and push a heavy iron bar into the air, and then she put weights on it! My legs were a little wobbly on the treadmill, but I made the full mile. Belinda’s rewarding smile made it all worthwhile. I feel GREAT!! It’s a whole new life for me.
WEDNESDAY:
The only way I can brush my teeth is by lying on the toothbrush on the counter and moving my mouth back and forth over it. I believe I have a hernia in both pectorals. Driving was OK as long as I didn’t try to steer or stop. I parked on top of a GEO in the club parking lot. Belinda was impatient with me, insisting that my screams bothered the other club members. Her voice is a little too perky for early in the morning and when she scolds, she gets this nasally whine that is VERY annoying. My chest hurts when I got on the treadmill, so Belinda put me on the stairmonster. Why the hell would anyone invent a machine to simulate an activity rendered obsolete by elevators? Belinda told me it would help me get in shape and enjoy life. She said some other shit too.
THURSDAY:
Her thin, cruel lips were pulled back in a full snarl. I couldn’t help being a half an hour late; it took me that long to tie my shoes. Belinda took me to workout with dumbbells. When she was not looking, I ran and hid in the men’s room. She sent Lars to find me, then, as punishment, put me on the rowing machine which I sank.
FRIDAY:
I hate that bitch Belinda more than any human being has ever hated any other human being in the history of the world. Stupid, skinny, anaemic little cheerleading bitch. If there were a part of my body I could move without unbearable pain, I would beat her with it. Belinda wanted me to work on my triceps. I don’t have any triceps! And if you don’t want dents in the floor, don’t hand me the f*cking barbells or anything that weighs more than a sandwich. The treadmill flung me off and I landed on a health and nutrition teacher. Why couldn’t it have been someone softer, like the drama coach or the choir director.
SATURDAY:
Belinda left a message on my answering machine in her grating, shrill voice wondering why I did not show up today. Just hearing her made me want to smash the machine with my planner. However, I lacked the strength to even use the TV remote and ended up catching eleven straight hours of the Weather Channel
SUNDAY:
I’m having the Church van pick me up for services today so I can go and thank GOD that this week is over. I will also pray that next year, my wife (the other bitch), will choose a gift for me that is fun – like a root canal or a vasectomy.

TWIN TOWERS 9-11: A First Hand Account - (Conclusion)
This is the final part of Thane Thompson's 9-11 saga - if you've been following, you'll know his credentials and the twists of fate that led him to be in the South Tower on that terrible morning in September 2001. I am forever grateful that my friend survived. Many, sadly, did not . . . - Sean Linnane
A man emerged from dust cloud panting and in respiratory distress. He looked as though he had been spray painted with think gray paint. His eyes were watered as he tried to clear the dust. I set the guy down and washed the dust from his eyes. He panted and said “They hit us, they hit us in Washington DC too.”
