"Scientists Warn of 'Mad Honey Disease' "--headline, Independent (London), Sept. 10 That is more politically correct than Mad Cow I guess. "French Broad Is Focus of Race"--headline, Asheville (N.C.)

Appeasement does not work. While france has held the Islamofacist at bay by not allowing any cooperation with any of the nations now at war with them, or made any move to erradicate them, they have come to France. In a move that only the most naive would not have expected, Al Zawahiri has decreed that the splinter group that has been terrorizing France for the last umpteen years, is now their brothers in arms. No country can escape them. The ones not hit are only deluding th...
Melinda Duckett lost her son 2 weeks ago. According to reports, he was snatched from his cradle as she watched a movie in another room of the place she was living. A few days ago, she went on one of 'News" shows with a former prosecutor named Nancy Grace. WHo is known for her hard hitting style. And she pulled no punches. At one point pounding her podium and demanding of Melinda, "Where were you when your son was snatched?". Not asking mind you, Demanding. The...
Ok, I am not doubting the Big Bang. I figure something happened to get this universe here. Whatever it is, I have no clue. But statements like these make me wonder about the scientist that pretend to know. The galaxy, named IOK-1, is so far away that the light waves that reached Earth depict it as the system of stars existed shortly after the Big Bang created the universe 13.66 billion years ago. Ok, let's look at this logically. For that Galaxy to be shining ...
Some college republicans, in what is poor taste, have been lampooning national democrats by firing paint balls and BB guns at their pictures. And in that, given the age and hormonal status of college kids, it is not news! It is adolescence. But what makes it news is that Howlin Howie Dean sent a scathing letter to Ken Melman DEMANDING he put a halt to it! As if the Leader of the RNC (or even the DNC) could reign in such shenanigans. Not hardly. But (Note this for so...
Liberals, as a rule, with many exceptions, some of them even here at JU, hate capitalism. (how is that for disclaimers?). They vilify Wal-mart, Big oil, Big Car, Big Business, and try to tax Big Farm (through the death tax) into oblivion, while making sure that little business is taxed into extinction. And now we know why. Simply put, they cannot compete in the open marketplace. Air America, according to a liberal site (Oh, excuse me, Progressive - it seems ...
Ok, yesterday, I posed a question for old (excuse me, mature) folks about women and do you remember. Some on their way to Adulthood (ok! You can be adults!), chimed in as well. But this question is for everyone. Us old (mature geezers) and the New Adults (how is that for PC?). How much math can you do in your head? Without benefit of a calculator (for the ones that never saw the series "Dukes of Hazzard", 'cack-a-lator' was what Boss Hogg called a calculator).

Tiger Woods has been called "the Best Athlete" because of his domination of his chosen sport. He on the other hand says that Michael Schumacher is the best Athlete. But the thing is Schumacher is a Formula One driver, who is dominating, but some don't think that is a real athlete. I am in that crowd. Golf is not a demanding, physically, sport, but it sure is mentally. I guess in that respect, so is race car driving. But I am curious, for the sports aficionados out t...
A friend sent me this list. And I realized, I am old! (shaddup San chonino! ) I grew up with these ladies, and yes they were hot to me! How many do you remember as that heart throb as a male adolescent (females are welcome to provide male lists, I just never got into the male side. hehehee) Brigette Bardot 71 Stella Stevens 68 Sophia Loren 71 Gina Lollobrigida 78 Deborah Kerr 94 Lena Horne 88 Kay Starr 83 Patti Page 78 Annette Funic...
I like Dell. I really do. Good cheap, and when you order they notify you every step of the way. So you know exactly where the order is. Their estimated ship date is a joke, as they always ship at least a week early! But having ordered umpteen systems from them, I have learned that. But they always notify you when the system ships so you know when it is going to arrive (they use UPS, so it is easy to track). Until now. No notification that it has shipp...
yes, the longest run of a division champ ever, 14 straight seasons (although the Mets did make it to the series in 2k), is a bit premature. If they win all their remaining games, and the Mets (the best team in Baseball right now) lose all of theirs, the Braves will win by a game. But that is highly unlikely. And I love it! Our home team is the Triple A farm team for them, and I hate them too! The only good year the Braves had was 69 (they lost to the Mets in 3 straight...

No big article, just a link to Majel and an interview with her on the 40th. I hope all the trekkies read it. It is actually very enlightening! I miss Gene, but not as much as Majel!
Most know that my wife is a paralegal. And I a network Jock. But I work downtown, and she in a safer climate, so that on occassion, she asks me to take things to the court house. Not a problem. I have been doing it for about 3 years now, and the US Marshalls (no none of them are Tommy Lee Jones) know me by sight now, and wave me through. I always leave my cell phones at the office as I know they are verbotten. Today was a little different. It was an Adversa...
