INTERESTING THINGS SONS TEACH YOU........

You find out interesting things when you have sons, like...

1.) A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq.... ft. house 4 inches deep.

2! .) If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.

3.) A 3-year old Boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.

4.) If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound Boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.

5.) You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on.. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.

6..) The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.

7.) When you hear the toilet flush and the words 'uh oh', it's already too late.

8.) Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.

9 .) A six-year old Boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36- year old Man says they can only do it in the movies.

10.) Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4-year old Boy.

11.) Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.

12.) Super glue is forever.

13..) No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.

14.) Pool filters do not like Jell-O.

15.) VCR's do not eject 'PB & J' sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.

16.) Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.

17.) Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.

18.) You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.

19.) Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens.

20.) The fire department in Austin ! , TX has a 5-minute response time.

21.) The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy..

22..) It will, however, make cats dizzy.

23.) Cats throw up twice their body weight when dizzy.

24.) 80% of Women will pass this on to almost all of their friends, with or without kids.

25.) 80% of Men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake fluid.

He photographs well..........by Rico.

The most scathing remark I ever heard about someone was that "at least he photographs well."

I would now apply this to "The One" ...the man I refer to as ObaMarx...who has smitten 52% of the electorate with his man-prettiness. If HE does nothing else well, at least he photographs well.

I understand that anyone who dares 'call out' His Celestial Marxist greatness or any of his minions on their lies, incompetence, and malfeasance is merely a racist KKK member and a very poor specimen of what a good Communist Comrade ought to be...but so be it. I consider NOT being a good Communist a compliment.

Let me also echo Warren Buffet's comments today by paraphrising them. Life as we knew it has fallen off a cliff.

World trade and world economies are collapsing faster than policy-makers are reactiong...and they are NOT reacting with the right decisions, thus making it worse than it needs to be. STIMULATING GOVERNMENT and not the ECONOMY means an extended period of pain for us all.

With due apologies to "Old Billy" (whose works I greatly admire), Harry Pelosi and Nancy Reid and wanton "earmark spending" a.k.a. "PORK" are not doing anyone any good....except for our elected tormenters, that is.
- By any measure the Auto, Housing and Finance industries are already in a depression. The rest of us come next, thanks to their 'political' machinations. Hey! As long as they get to remain "in charge" they could care less if we eat sawdust or cake. Taking care of "number one" is the entire point here, followed closely by a 'fair' Communist Collectivist utopia...paraphrasing the late great Frank Zappa: "They just take care of number one, and number one ain't you. You ain't even number two...or even number three."

Some (like the famed Jim Cramer) are projecting a worst-case scenario of a Dow 5300, while some on Wall Street are talking 4000 privately (we're in the mid-600's now).

Churchill was right......

"There is no such thing as a good tax."

"Some see private enterprise as a predatory target to be shot, others as a cow to be milked, but few are those who see it as a sturdy horse pulling the wagon."

"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries."

"We contend that for a nation to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle."

"An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile—hoping it will eat him last."

"The truth is incontrovertible, malice may attack it, ignorance may deride it, but in the end; there it is."

"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy."

"You ask, What is our policy? I will say; “It is to wage war, by sea, land and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us: to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.” You ask, What is our aim? I can answer with one word: Victory—victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival".
