As long as it is not Christian, it is ok. This would make a good listen on your commute to work. You work, they sleep. Taxspenders that is.

Hmm. What is the lesson here? Even an unpopular state can call upon the support of its people in the face of foreign invader. Now, nobody is calling open borders immigration an invasion … that would be a hate crime and the milky skinned aristocrats would pout and choke on their cucumber sandwiches. The other lesson is that unexpected tactics can upset the apple cart. This could be, oh, the frogmen attacks by Iran, or the gas used by Iraq. I think the UN sent a sharply worded letter to Iraq about that.

Go to work.

Actually, maybe Barbie’s partied enough. Okay then, how about this, “Come on barbie, let’s take some Tylenol, drink some water and get some sleep!”

Doesn’t really have the same ring to it.

Absolute, 100% fraud. Case closed. Geithner knew this was going on and gave it his blessing. How could he not, he was the head of the NY Fed! Now Turbo Timmy is in charge of the Treasury? Unbelievable. How come this shyster isn’t behind bars? How come you Americans aren’t demanding this? I honestly don’t understand.

This is the BIGGEST scandal in US history.

Ever.

And that is no exaggeration.

FDIC - Five more banks bite the dust…because the economy is SOOOOOO great

**Have a look at some retail statistics from this year, and keep in mind what the fanboys at state-controlled media are telling us regarding how well the economy is performing:

• Electronics down 1.6% (-3.0% a year ago); 
• Restaurants down 0.3% (+3.4% a year ago, believe it or not); 
• Clothing down 0.7% (-2.8% a year ago); 
• Department stores flat (-6.8% a year ago); 
• Furniture down 1.8% (-7.5% a year ago); 
• Building materials down 4% (-10.9% a year ago).  
If there is one segment that has truly held its own, it is food stores — up 3.8% (was
+1.3% a year ago) and e-tailing, which is now up 11.8% (was -1.6% a year ago).  

Keep dreaming about green shoots, they’re JUST around the corner.

The Mayor was very surprised that someone actually correctly identified Ryan Seacrest as the mystery When They Were Young person of interest in last week’s post. When I say The Mayor was surprised, what I meant to say is that I’m surprised someone actually admitted knowing it was Ryan Seacrest in the picture. Seeing as though Kirby, the identifier in this case, is a relatively new commenter to Mitchieville, The Mayor will explain the correct answer when identifying geeks such as Ryan Seacrest: “I don’t know”, or, “Oprah.”

Anything that deviates from those two answers tend to sound alarm bells in The Mayor’s brain.

Once again, I can’t see anyone guessing the correct identity of the person in this picture. I believe you would have a better chance at identifying the dog buddy is groping.

The boy/man in the picture sure looks to be a clean-cut kind of kid, doesn’t he? Well looks can be deceiving, let me tell you that. Like the other day when I was at Burger King grabbing a whopper combo. The girl behind the counter looked to be a pretty little thing - lovely hair, nice smile, tip-top shape, little bend in her petite nose - but when I got to the counter, she tore off her face and underneath was this amphibious looking creature - ratty hair, fangs for teeth, underweight like a crack momma, broken nose, etc. For a moment I nearly swore off drinking and percodans, but I quickly got that stupid thought out of my head.

Anyway, I asked her if she new where Kelsey’s was and ran out the door before she could open her polluted mouth.

True story, email it to your best friend.

So, any idea who the guy is in the picture? You would probably recognize him if he was eating a bat.

**That bat comment was a hint.

It’s amazing how misunderstanding a word or two in a sentence can completely alter the entire meaning of the thought. For instance, Princess Leia said, “Bring me Han Solo.” Chewbacca thought she said, “Give me a hand solo.”
