How much Glowbal Warmenating Co2 is being emitted by the Olympic flame in Sochi?

And where the Climate Change folks are….One would think they would be protesting.

You do need to READ THIS.

Srsly

I am glad it isn’t happening here

Yet.

I fear it will soon.

And the local police have all those MRAPs we need to fear

That the farther left a country is, the faster it’s economy is going into the crapper?

Venezuela, Argentina, Brazil, etc in South America are prime examples.

Greece and other PIIGS countries in Europe.

Russia and the former Soviet Republics have already failed, and are on the road to somewhere else….

Banking crises, governmental debt woes, declining standard of living, less and less government services. More and more government interference in commerce.

Someone tell Barry and his pet NC cronies.

And tell me how to avoid getting splashed.

Democrat? Republican? Independent?

Pandora says that your music tastes tells them a LOT about you. SO much so that they are going to target ads to you based upon your music selections.

They even have an example quiz.

I expect that Amazon will do likewise soon.

Seems some liberal journalist (but I repeat myself) was all up in arms about the news that Huntsville Alabama is going to gain (up to) 2000 jobs at the (soon to be) expense of Ilion, New York and ran a poll to see what the newspaper readership thought of the idea that icky guns would be made in a factory in the area.

The responses to the poll were overwhelmingly positive. People care little about the fact that gunz would be made in the new factory. All they see is jobs that produce wealth for the community.

The comments are overwhelmingly disparaging.

I mean…Alabama.

Lesson learned ?:

“We’re in Indiana, they [are] from Illinois, they don’t know people got permits to carry guns, so bang bang, that is what happened,” 

Seems that Chase Bank is open on President’s day (which, IMO, should still be Washington’s and Lincoln’s birthday, not a National Holiday that always falls on a Monday so that the Federal workers can get an extra long weekend)…

Now while I found this conveneient for by business banking, I asked the manager why they were open on President’s day, but not MLK day, as both were national holidays.

“we are closed on MLK day out of respect for Martil Luther King, and because it is important to our minority customers.”

Well, see, now we have an issue, dude. “cause I find it DIS-respectful that you are open today, as both Lincoln and Washington ARE PERSONAL HEROES OF MINE”

“yeah, we’ve heard it a lot lately. I’ll let you talk to my boss…..” and he proceeds to pull out his cell phone and call his boss…”yeah, another one”..and he hands he phone to me.

so I say my piece and he apologizes and I hang up.

Now here is the thing…

I really don’t care if the bank is open on either holiday. But if they are going to be closed for MLK day, then they really should be closed for President’s day….of open on both.

Why do they give more respect to a (admittedly brave) black preacher than to an abolitionist or to the founding father of our country?

I think it is for fear of being labeled racist….Else they wouldn’t bother to close at all.
