>Spud State No More?
>
Oh well I guess it’s better than *some* state mottos.
“A state lawmaker wants to peel Idaho’s standard license plate of the legend ‘Famous Potatoes’ in a battle over whether the lowly spud should symbolize a state whose major export is high technology.
Frank Muir, president of the Idaho Potato Commission, is irked over the proposal, which he says undercuts the spud’s considerable contributions to the state. After beating back the onslaught of low-carb diets in recent years, the last thing the Idaho potato industry expected was to be mashed at home, he said…”

>A Psychiatrist Examines The Anti-Gun Mentality
>
Excellent analysis about the Anti-Gun mentality.
“…You don’t need to have a gun; the police will protect you.’
‘If people carry guns, there will be murders over parking spaces and neighborhood basketball games.’
‘I’m a pacifist. Enlightened, spiritually aware people shouldn’t own guns.’
‘I’d rather be raped than have some redneck militia type try to rescue me.’
How often have you heard these statements from misguided advocates of victim disarmament, or even woefully uninformed relatives and neighbors? Why do people cling so tightly to these beliefs, in the face of incontrovertible evidence that they are wrong? Why do they get so furiously angry when gun owners point out that their arguments are factually and logically incorrect?
How can you communicate with these people who seem to be out of touch with reality and rational thought?…”

Saddam Had WMD
So… why isn’t the Mainstream Meadia reporting this?
“…’The short answer to the question of where the WMD Saddam bought from the Russians went was that they went to Syria and Lebanon,’ said John Shaw, former deputy undersecretary of defense, in comments made at an intelligence summit Feb. 17-20 in Arlington, Va.
‘They were moved by Russian Spetsnaz (special ops) units out of uniform that were specifically sent to Iraq to move the weaponry and eradicate any evidence of its existence,’ he said.
The conclusion?
President Bush was right. We had to invade to disarm Saddam — otherwise, he would have completely reconstituted his chemical, nuclear and bio-weapons programs when inspectors left.”

“…This grow was underneath a
house in a cave. The entrance was through a secret hydraulic door in the garage that led to a concrete ramp that went about 50 yards into the ground. Inside the cave was living quarters and a secret escape hatch that led you through a tunnel that exited via another hydraulic door that opened up a rock on the outside. It was very elaborate… “

Correct me if I’m wrong:
Didn’t people donate money to send this guy to the Olympics?
Didn’t he eliminate somebody that had their own Olympic Dream?
Didn’t he twist his ankle playing Basketball… right before his race?
Did the U.S. just send him there to party?
“…’I just did it my way. I’m not a martyr, and I’m not a do-gooder. I just want to go out and rock. And man, I rocked here,’ Miller said in an exclusive interview with The Associated Press soon after he skidded off the slalom course in his fifth and final race, completing an 0-for-the-Olympics…”
“…”Look at what happened to Rahlves. He was holed up in his RV, he’s probably the fittest guy out here and he made a point of talking about how important the Olympics were to him,” Miller said. “And then look — a little bad luck and he’s got nothing to show for the whole thing.
“Me, it’s been an awesome two weeks,” Miller said. “I got to party and socialize at an Olympic level.”

Embrace Metric
The Mayor of Mitchieville loves the Metric System.
Hey, he convinced me.
“…Metric is great for our police departments because it is a giant cash-cow. When Americans hit our freeways, many of them believe they must be on the Autobaun, because they see a sign that says 100km. So, many Americans will go 100mph. The coppers love this because that equates to about a $250 fine, which has to be paid on the spot. God bless America, and God bless you for not figuring out that we are a metrics peoples…”
