Interesting traveling companion

View image on Twitter

A California man found an "interesting" way to circumvent the car pool lane. He traveled with the most interesting man in the world. Unfortunately for him, the state trooper who pulled him over was not impressed by his famous passenger. 

The cardboard passenger was quoted as saying, "I don't usually wear a seat belt. Mainly because I'm non-living and made of wood. Stay thirsty my friends." 

No word on whether the Bartles and Jaymes losers were in the backseat discussing marketing strategies. Thank you for your support.

New York Lawmakers shamelessly seek pay raise




They're at it again. The crooks who run New York State are trying to give themselves a raise in typical underhanded fashion...


ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) - New York lawmakers say a commission should be appointed to study whether they deserve a pay hike.
The proposal, which is included in the state budget, calls for the creation of a seven-member panel to examine and recommend whether to increase the legislative salary, which is now $79,500 per year.

And I wonder whose going to be appointed that commission? Friends and cronies of the crooks themselves, of course. How come they don't create a commission to study the need for term limits?  Once these bozos get elected, they think the job is theirs for life. These were not intended to be life long positions. 
Hey lawmakers: We know what you're up to, and I hope this blog post finds you. Any raises (no matter how small) will be met with great opposition from the taxpayers (Oh, by the way, the people who pay your salaries). We don't need you and your job is so useless you could be replaced in 24 hours by monkeys. You knew what the job paid when you accepted it. If you're not happy with the pay, please go to the private sector and find out how much your "talents" are worth. That would be zero. All public polls are against you getting Jack Squat. So please go find the nearest cliff in Albany and jump off it!

Redskins no more




Lancaster High School in upstate New York has decided to nix their team nickname. They will no longer be referred to as the Redskins. This is a good move on their part. When it comes to Native American nicknames, Chiefs, Warriors, and Blackhawks are all acceptable. None of them have derogatory connotations. Redskins is basically an ethnic slur. I'm not politically correct by any means, but the name obviously offends a large segment of the Native American population. 

At least two schools with substantial Native American students (Lake Shore and Akron High Schools) cancelled their lacrosse games this Spring over the nickname. Some people are upset about the change and think the School Board has caved in to public pressure. Others feel it's a long overdue change. No word yet on a new nickname for the school, but our sources tell us some potential names being mentioned are the Wiggers, Heebs, Krouts, or Wetbacks.
