Highway 61 is NOT Finished
“God said to Abraham, “Kill me a son”
Abe says “Man, you must be puttin’ me on” God says, “No.” Abe say, What?”
God say, “You can do what you want Abe, but the next time you see me comin’ you better run.”
Well Abe says, “Where do you want this killin’ done?”
God says. “Out on Highway 61.”

Ahmadinejad is not shy about wanting to destroy every Jew on the planet. It seems his GOD is still having problems sharing the planet with the other GODs.
In a speech published on his website Thursday, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said the ultimate goal of world forces must be theannihilation of Israel. Speaking to ambassadors from Islamic countries ahead of ‘Qods Day’ (‘Jerusalem Day’), an annual Iranian anti-Zionist event established in 1979 by Ayatollah Khomeini and which falls this year on August 17, Ahmadinejad said that a “horrible Zionist current” had been managing world affairs for “about 400 years.”
Nobody Thinks: Only 400?
Jews and the Muslims came out of the same desert, and on the slat of the Bell Curve, they should be more alike. The Jews were slaves first and their “god” was a jealous god, and he let them know it.
Both tribes were cut from the same father..Abraham. But the sons of Abraham—Ishmael and Isaac, were not cut from the same mother. Can we blame the mothers? Ishmael was a bully, and Abraham sent him and his mother Hagar away for picking on his younger brother. Later on God told Abraham to kill Isaac…to show his love for him. By all accounts, Isaac was the nicer kid.
The old testament God was not very lovable.
After the long exodus, it goes, God gave the Jews the ‘promised’ land. and he ordered them to go into Jericho and slaughter all the women and children, and ordered the Jews to not leave anyone alive.
Call me crazy, but that sounds just like something Ahmahdinjad would say.
Joshua took the battle of Jericho and the walls came tumbling down, and burnt it so badly that archeologists being paid big bucks STILL can’t find it.
So, why did these two genetically attached tribes of the ancient dessert have such different succeed rates?
Nobody Thinks: It was the Ten Commandments. Okay, it was a lot more than the Ten Commandments. Somewhere there’s a genetic scholar that believes it was in the genes. Ishmael was a bully…he spawned a whole line of bullies. Isaac was ALWAYS getting picked on. The Jews have had a history of just that.
All this time has gone by, and they are STILL waiting for Armageddon. God said the Jews were the chosen ones. Allah said the Islamists are the chosen ones.
Can I get a vowel here?
So…who’s going to win out in the end?
There’s an old Bible Story not much told about Joshua, and the Battle of Rephidim. While the Jews had been walking in the desert, they were having trouble finding water and food, but there was something else that scared them even more than dying on the desert floor: The Amalekites..the desert raiders.
Moses told Joshua to go and fight them. And Moses said he would stand on a high hill and raise his arms and pray to God, and as long as Joshua saw Moses arms raised, he would win the battle.
The battle began and the Jews held the line, Moses was holding up his arms to the sky, and then some of the men got excited, broke the line, and went after the swords of the Amalekites, then Moses arms fell down. The Amalekites came back, and Joshua, much like George Washington years later, ran after them, and rallied them back to fight.
The Jews won the battle.
And here’s the kicker, that makes me give a big chuckle.
When Joshua looked up at the hill, old Moses, who by then was over a hundred, had Aaron holding up one arm, and Hur the other.
I’m really not sure how to take that, but it’s funny.
Metaphorically speaking, you could say the Jews of 2012 have allies in war to hold up the hand of Moses: England and America. (Well, we hope. Not so sure with Obama)
Ahmadiemjad might have to wait another 400 years if he decides to attack the tribe of Joshua.
Highway 61 is yet to be finished.
Nobody’s Fool: Reverend Owens
Nobody’s Fool
Finally…SOMEBODY got the guts to stand up to Obama on the basis of their own faith. Nobody Thinks the Reverend Owens deserves applause for standing up for his convictions. Marriage between a man and a woman has been in all religions since they were formed, and now, politicians, are trying to force every religious person into excepting that which their own faith does not accept.
That’s not freedom of religion, that’s tyranny. How would the ‘gays’ like it if the state told them they had to “not be gay” anymore? It’s a matter of freedom. That’s basically what it comes down to…”Don’t be a Christian.”
And watch the CNN reporter try to put her own bias into it. Is it any wonder CNN is losing the ratings battle?
The IRS Wins the Gold for Greed!
Nobody Wins
We Americans are SO proud of our Olympic Athletics…and we should be. The cost of training for the Olympics is not cheap. After all, we’re not China. Our kids have to pay their way entirely on their own.
And most of them are not rich: 2012 Olympic athlete Cyrus Hostetler (javelin thrower) states on his personal website, “Sometimes the competition that I face is not the competition on the track but rather the competition of finances, and every year it’s a losing battle. When you total up all the cost of coaching, trainers, medical, equipment, and travel expenses my monthly paycheck just doesn’t add up.” He made a total of $2,273 for throwing a javelin in 2011.
This stinks. Here in America, we find out that we can overpay big, fat, government workers who have never lifted anything heavier than a Starbucks latte, to give themselves million dollar bonuses and expensive vacations on OUR dime, and that’s after they’ve ruined the country: and yet, we tax the success of the kids who work hard all their lives just to get the chance to represent America in the Olympics one day. 
What?
Nobody Knew that our Olympic Athletics had to pay taxes on the gold metals they get. Tell me…did Obama have to pay taxes on his Nobel Peace Prize money? Oh…He donated that million dollars to some charity?
Must be nice to be President and have all your expenses paid by the taxpayers, so that you can give money to charities.
The Athletes at the Olympics represent us as surely as any ambassador or President, so why in the world are we punishing their success with a heavy TAX?
Fire some of the GSA idiots and give our Olympic kids government jobs to train to become future Olympians, or teach Olympians .I don’t’ think there would be ONE taxpayer that would complain.
Athletes who win a gold medal also earn a $25,000 honorarium — and with it a $8,986 tax bill to the IRS, according to Americans for Tax Reform, which crunched the numbers. That covers both the honorarium and the tax on the value of the gold in the medal itself.
The silver medal tax comes to $5,385, and the bronze medal tax is $3,502 — including $2 for the value of the bronze medal itself, and the $10,000 honorarium. All told, U.S. athletes have 57 medals — 28 golds, 18 silvers and 19 bronzes — which comes to a tax bill of nearly $350,000
ATR, the group that crunched the numbers, said it’s unlikely any of America’s competition will face the same taxes because the U.S. “is virtually the only developed nation that taxes ‘worldwide’ income earned overseas by its taxpayers.”
Unless of course you are GE..or have a Cayman Island account.
Marco Rubio is trying to get this nonsense stopped. Let’s hope he succeeds.
Men…Watch the Curves
Nobody Wonders
Let’s talk about “breeding.”
Did you men know WHY you really prefer curves in women? Well…it’s because if a woman has big hips, big bust and a small waist, she is carrying more DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) which is omega 3 fat, which means she will produce smarter babies.
HA! And you thought that it was something else causing all that excitement!
Really. Get it together. Babies, according to the latest research, need lots of DHA to feed their rapidly growing brains, and only women with hips and curse have LOTs of that stuff stored up.
Getting a bust enlargement at your local plastic surgeon office DOESN’T COUNT! Don’t be fooled guys into thinking that woman is going to give you great kids…just great sex. You DO want smart kids —don’t you? Uh..uh…
Oh…and shocker…curvier women are smarter themselves! Who knew? You have to be pretty smart to play the dumb blond. I should know. Outside of this enlightening blog, where I discuss the most interesting insights on the political scene…I’m actually, the dumb blond who can’t find her car keys, and has NO clue how to do…anything that requires hard labor. I produced a VERY smart baby. Very high IQ. Genuis level in fact. My son has no clue just how much DHA I contributed to his brain, and some day…I’ll be sure to drop the dumb blond act and tell him.
It’s true…look it up in his books.
Now…I’m not sure I believe this: BUT if you go by this ‘discovery’ that the higher the Omega 3 fat content in a woman’s body, the smarter her children, then Japan would be leading the world in just about everything because Japanese women have more DHA than American women.
But, it’s not just all those curves: Men may not know it, but they are really attracted to small waists. (Wait…I know…I know..you thought I was going to say feet.) 
If a woman has a small waist, she is less likely to have been pregnant before. If the woman has a bigger waist– their babies grow TOO big. Not good.
American women, due to the fact that the cows are eating corn and not grass, are pretty low on this DHA stuff. The omega 3 vitamins are being processed out of our diet, and since the fashion industry is run by “gay” designers who prefer women to look like young boys–the young girls want to be so thin, they starve themselves out of the necessary DHA they are going to need to make smart babies.Okay…so there’s another reason for all those thin models. Curvier women are more exspensive to ‘dress’…all those ‘darts’. 
Remember ladies…tiny waists to men, might be just as exciting as that expensive boob job you’ve been thinking about.
Do a lot of yoga bends,…he’ll never know WHY in the world he is crazy about you, but he will be glad once you give him the next Olympian or Nobel Prize winner.
(Nobody Would Make This Stuff up)
The Milky Way is STILL Cruising…
Nobody Notes
Australia has some really strange sounding places…like the Purnululu National Park, where you can find the Bungle Bungees, which look like giant bee-hives or little alien ships ready to attack Gaia! Somebody call Al Gore…quick!
That’s where this picture of the Milky Way was taken, by an Australian photographer named Mike Salway.
Pretty cool!
Nobody Knows the Hard Dicisions of War…
Nobody Knows—
Politicians. They get in power— whatever country they lead, and none of us have any idea the pressures they face, and the decisions they have to make in times of war.
We don’t know—so much is kept from us.
I have made a new friend from Germany, who gave me a book on Dresden, and really, it gave me nightmares. 
The night I laid the book down, I dreamt about going into an apartment, and right in the foyer, I saw a bulldog, panting–looking up at me helplessly, while he was holding up his front leg, which was missing the bottom half—-no paw, no foreleg…and blood from the bitten- off leg was dripping on the floor profusely. At his feet, was the head of another dog, which had been torn completely off. No body anywhere. The other dog had attacked him. 
The bulldog looked up at me in complete shock, sadness and confusion. Ah —the pity. To much of the world, America IS a bulldog.
And that’s war. One side gets attacked, the other side fights back, and wins, but at a tremendous cost.
And so, our leaders have to take into account so many variables. How exactly do you fight a war or even stop it? While Germany was burning, Hitler sent out small boys and old men to fight, rather than give up. Japan, we see, did the same. Iran, would be no different.
The leaders of England just before bombing Dresden, had a meeting. Churchill and his generals, gave this rationalization on the price they had from the first World War, and their final decision in the bombing of innocent civilians:
The most deadly fact was not the numbers slaughtered but that all these millions were in the main young men in the prime of life who had not yet had time to marry and have families What had been destroyed was the future as well as the present. The ghastly logic withal this selective carnage of the trenches was the very worst injury which nations could inflict upon themselves and upon each other. Aerial bombardment of cities even into its most indiscriminate for, would be far less damaging. It would kill or maim a nearly equal proportion of each element of the populations the women equally with the men, the young equally with the old, the weak equally with the strong, the sick equally with the fit. From such a bloodletting there might be a recovery whereas to kill for the second time in a century the best of the young men in their prime but without issue would doom Western civilization. There would be no hope. All the combatant nations must decline.
So, while the feminists have tried to erase the men as being, not so important…, to lose your men, means that Western Civilization would disappear.
And who has the most men in the world? China. The Muslims are not far behind.
It does make you think.

Nobody’s Perfect: Dick Cheney VS Rahm Emanuel
Nobody’s Perfect
Last week, we had two politicians spout off about two different subjects. First up: Dick Cheney.
Cheney was talking about picking Vice Presidents, something he has done himself for both Presidents Nixon and Ford. He has also been a Vice President himself and at the seat of power just about as long as GOD…and in his opinion, Sarah Palin was…an amateur. John McCain picked the wrong running mate.
“The test ... has to be, ‘Is this person capable of being president of the United States?’”
“I like Governor Palin,” Cheney said of the former Alaska governor. “I’ve met her. I know her. ...Attractive candidate. But based on her background, she’d only been governor for, what, two years. I don’t think she passed that test ... of being ready to take over. And I think that was a mistake.”
Well…Nobody Thinks that Dick Cheney has shown that all the experience he brought to the table has not exactly left the country in the best of positions. The reason Barack Obama got into office so easily is because he promised ‘change’ …and that was ‘change’ from the Bush and Cheney Rockefeller “no isolation” Dynasty.
Sarah Palin actually saved the Republicans from total embarrassment, and they know it. She came out and connected with the people. John McCain was “experienced” but what good is experience when it made John a liberal on WAY too many subjects? Prostitutes are experienced but would you trust them to rasie your kids?
When Obama talks about the “old boys club” many of us wince, because there is a ring of truth to it. The old boys club has done so badly, a communist just slipped right in. While the Marxists took over the Democrats, the Global Corporate took over the Republicans. There was no party ‘for the people’ anymore, and that’s why everyone loved her. 
They should have Sarah Palin at the Republican convention, but the Bush family do not want her anywhere near it.
We’ll see how smart they are.
Then there was the Godfather of Chicago, Rahm Emanuel, who had this to say when he found out that the Chick-fil-A’s owner believes in old fashioned marriage between a man and a woman, a view he shares with over 70 percent of the people.
Rahm Emanuel, the mayor of Chicago said, of his efforts to block the food chain, “Chick-fil-A’s values are not Chicago values. They’re not respectful of our residents, our neighbors and our family members.”
Respectful? Uh..Gays can eat chicken. He never said they can’t eat at his store.
The Mayor of Chicago just discriminated against a legitimate business, with his OWN opinions, causing it millions of dollars worth of business.
Hitler would be proud. Why don’t you just paint a “star” on those store windows Rahm?
Rahm has no room to talk. Chicago has the highest rate of murders for any city…in the WORLD. More than Mexico City…and Rahm welcomes all Muslims into Chicago, Muslims who hate “gays”..including that lovable Obama mentor, Louis Farrakhan.
So…who wins the Nobody’s Perfect award for the week? 
Nazi Boy, Rahm Emanuel….Sarah Palin can take care of herself.
Meanwhile..if you can’t find your delicious Chick -fil- A fix next time you’re in Chicago, take the wife and kids to the nearest strip bar. Chicago has a lot of those. Maybe they will serve you a few chicken strips between Bunny’s Fan Dance and Divita’s Disco Bump. 
Affirmative Olympic Action
Nobody Flashes
Last night I turned on the Olympics late, finding out that I had missed the women’s gymnastics. I just caught a young woman in tears.
“Okay…what happened?” I thought. The most I could make out is only two girls could go to the finals, so the girls on the American team were fighting each OTHER for the right to go on to compete for the big enchilada, the big Kahuna, the big endorsements…etc.
Being the conspiracy (Where’s there’s smoke there’s somebody’s raging fire) Nobody that I am, I instantly thought…Okay they had to get rid of our best American gymnast in order to let the Chinese win.
Why do I think this way? Because I’ve seen Affirmative Globalization in action. I get my cynicism from going to too many inventors’ conventions, where I saw one fabulous American invention after another be totally ignored in contests where our American University snobs gave big prizes to Chinese students whose inventions weren’t even shown.
But my curiosity overwhelmed me, so I stayed up till 3 am just to see what had happened, and found out there was an entirely different reason behind it.
Now, I’m not one to know the points of every mistake, BUT…the lovely and lively black girl, Gabby Douglas, on her floor exercise, made one of the biggest bloopers I’ve ever seen. She overshot a tumbling run, and stepped widely out of the lines, took more than a few steps, and the judges…gave her a pretty good score.
Up comes the strongest gymnast, Jordyln Wieber, and she does her floor routine, and steps her heel out after a tumbling run…just a smidgen of an inch. For that, the judges killed her.
So, Gabby, who we heard time and time again from the commentators, could destroy a team when she was having a bad night got to go…and nobody dared question the unfair and ridiculous high score given to a black young and upcoming superstar gymnast who will certainly inspired millions of little black girls in the states. Affirmative action of the “elites” is alive and well in the Olympics.
Now…watch China win.
Here’s the official report.
Even though the Americans had three of the top four qualifiers, only the top two gymnasts from each team advance. Aly Raisman and Gabby Douglas will compete in the individual all-around final on Thursday. Wieber’s consolation is that she qualified for the floor exercise final. Her personal coach, John Geddert, said in a statement, “She has trained her entire life for this day, and to have it turn out anything less than she deserves is going to be devastating.
Douglas, who remains a favorite in the all-around, said the team would rally around Wieber while seeking the gold medal. But she said it would be “definitely kind of a little awkward.”
She took a moment to think about what she would say to Wieber, knitting her eyebrows as if deep in thought, but even the chatty Douglas could not come up with anything.
“Um, I’m still working on that,” she said.
Bela Karolyi, Martha Karolyi’s husband and the coach of the last United States team to win an Olympic gold medal, said Wieber was cheated out of a spot in the all-around, calling it “a lineup mistake” by the personal coaches.
The Olympics and London’s Big Baby
Nobody’s Opinion
I was going to say something last week about the London Olympic opening ceremony, but really…it left me speechless. It looked like Prince Charles threw up his nightly nightmares onto a big stage and we were all pushed inside his head. The man who put all those little global warming “messages” in his big production, sure didn’t think twice about exposing the thousands in the audience to giant smokestacks belching out sulfuric gas, did he now? 
But it was Danny Boyle, not the Prince, who produced and created everything he thought about England into one big overwhelming polemical statement.
So let me get this straight: Britain went from tending goats, to slaves working in the steel mills, to taking care of sick kids, to party, party, party. 
Huh? That’s not what we think about when Americans think of England. We think of Shakespeare, NOT Mary Poppins. The Magna Carta, NOT Alice in Wonderland. Henry the VIII, WWI, WWII, Oxford, and Education, and…Kings, and Kings, and more Queens, and Lords.
Forget all that…it was all about those dirty, working, unhappy, slave of a people, who only have sick kids, who grow up and do nothing but text their cell phones while they wander around the city lost.
During the celebration of the great Health Care System, you learned those were the REAL nurses and doctors out there dancing. Nobody was wondering who was manning the great British health care system while they were all dancing around? If some poor ‘bloke’ cracked his head practicing that night on the balance bar, he would have to wait for the performance to be over to get a doctor to stitch him up.
And so, the Hobbit land of perfect people, started polluting the earth, and women and men were slaves to the industrial revolution, so England lets China do all the dirty work now…and evolved into its most glorious gift to the world…Universal Healthcare ..and pop music.
And all of England has sick kids, who have nightmares, while their nurses go out and dance, while their teenagers run all over the city trying to pick each other up with cell phones.
It looked like a giant Chucky in cobwebs. What? Are the babies too big in England?
The Queen’s part was fun…her dogs were adorable. And she really was lovely. But they made fun of her anyway. Her subjects were mad because she dared to pick at her nails. Really. She jumped out of a plane, give her a break.
I tend to notice the little things. Okay, I read too much into the little things. Like the shots of Michelle Obama were SO fast, if you blinked you would have missed it. She had some young black man standing next to her.. and oops…who was he?
Mitt Romney, on the other hand and his wife, had a nice long camera shot…as if to say, “Look, here is your next President.” Which makes me wonder…is it already locked in?
And then, we had Paul. Nobody criticizes Paul McCartney, but really…I couldn’t believe he went into that old show biz thing where you get the boys to sing and then the girls. I know he did it because he was losing his voice,..but he should have done Live and let Die, ..and then rocked out…instead of “Hey Jude” He had a packed house of young people, from a “entertainers” point of view “Hey Jude” was NOT the song toend the night with.
But then again…maybe he had orders not to wake the big baby.
Anybody?
I still can’t make neither head nor tales of the whole thing, so I decided you should read an observation from a real Brit who…says she knows:
But we, in Britain, knew what it added up to, despite its baffling moments: it was Boyle’s impassioned poem of praise to the country he would most like to believe in. One that is tolerant, multicultural, fair and gay friendly and holds the principles of the welfare state stoutly at its heart. One that is simultaneously silly and earnest, mainstream and subversive, “high” and “low” in its culture.
Right…high, and low—I wonder…will they dare take down that tree? And where is that big baby going to sleep tonight? Is there room in the Tower?
Nobody Gets Email: Oklahoma Did It, Anyway.
Nobody Get Email:
So, state by state, we CAN take the country back. Who knew?Oklahoma did. Enjoy! (Thanks to Tom Beebe)
Oklahoma!
‘Be who you are and say what you feel, because those that matter-don’t mind…and those that mind–don’t matter.’
Oklahoma is the only state that Obama did not win even one county in the last election…While everyone is focusing on Arizona’s new law…look what Oklahoma has been doing!
An update from Oklahoma:
Oklahoma law passed, 37 to 9 an amendment to place the Ten Commandments on the front entrance to the state capitol. The feds in D.C. , along with the ACLU, said it would be a mistake. Hey, this is a conservative state, based on Christian values…HB1330
Guess what? Oklahoma did it anyway. 
Oklahoma recently passed a law in the state to incarcerate all illegal immigrants, and ship them back to where they came from unless they want to get a green card and become an American citizen. They all scattered. HB 1804. This was against the advice of the Federal Government, and the ACLU, they said it would be a mistake.
Guess what? Oklahoma did it anyway.
Recently we passed a law to include DNA samples from any and all illegal’s to the Oklahoma database, for criminal investigative purposes. Pelosi said it was unconstitutional. SB 1102.
Guess what? Oklahoma did it anyway.
Several weeks ago, we passed a law, declaring Oklahoma as a Sovereign state, not under the Federal Government directives. Joining Texas, Montana and Utah as the only states to do so.
More states are likely to follow: Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, the Carolina’s, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, West Virginia, Mississippi and Florida. Save your confederate money, it appears the South is about to rise up once again. HJR 1003.
The federal Government has made bold steps to take away our guns. Oklahoma, a week ago, passed a law confirming people in this state have the right to bear arms and transport them in their vehicles. I’m sure that was a setback for the criminals. The Liberals didn’t like it.
Guess what? Oklahoma did it anyway. 
Just this month, the state has voted and passed a law that ALL driver’s license exams will be printed in English, and only English, and no other language. They have been called racist for doing this, but the facts is that ALL of the road signs are in English only. If you want to drive in Oklahoma, you must read and write English. Really simple.
By the way, the Liberals don’t like any of this either.
Guess what? Who cares? Oklahoma is doing it anyway.
Pass it on.
Should Mitt Just Bow to the Queen?
Nobody Cares
I woke up this morning to an argument being held on the local radio station:
“No WAY should the US lower the flag to the Queen!” yelled some old guy.
“Well, Mitt insulted the Brits, it’s the least we can do.” said some lady.
This conversation came after yesterday’s big news: Mitt Romney wasn’t sure if the British were prepared for the Olympics, and he said so.
And the Prime Minister’s ego couldn’t take it:
We are holding an Olympic Games in one of the busiest, most active, bustling cities anywhere in the world. Of course it’s easier if you hold an Olympic Games in the middle of nowhere.”
So…Cameron evidently thinks that Salt Lake City has only a few scorpions and a few red- neck rodeo ranchers on the map, sipping whiskey.
Oh my. Oh dear. An American insulted the Kingdom of the Queen. Even though, Mitt probably read about the problems they were having, (which were many) in the daily London papers for a whole MONTH–you do not, critized the country who considers you at best…an ugly red-headed, pig infested, step-child. The Brits have made handbags with “The BIG FAT AMERICANS” on them, long before Mitt made that honest assessment, but really…now Americans are hated again.
And now…someone suggested we lower our flag to the Queen.
WHY? You start this ‘habit’ and down the path we go to having to lower our flags to every single nation on the planet. Imagine, lowering the flag to honor Ahmadinejad? And if the Olympics are held in Israel some day, can you see an Arab nation lowering their flag to honor the Jews? It’s a political firestorm just waiting for a match.
Really. Let the Brits honor the Queen…leave the rest of the world to compete in good faith. No flag should be lowered to any monarch or ruler in any country. 
The big fuss that the Brits made about Mitt Romney just being honest about what they were ALL talking about, really shows how very fragile the big ego’s of the elites like Cameron, and the Mayor of London are.
They are acting…like fussy old women.
Jesus.
Here is a comment from some ninny:
Most teams briefly lower colors as they pass host nation’s leaders at opening ceremony. But despite what some see as blatant nationalism, the U.S. does not, and the century-old saga is a curious one.
Russia doesn’t either. At the games in China, almost no one did. But that doesn’t mean we can’t attack America, ONE MORE TIME.
England —Nobody Thinks you protest too much. Now…BRING OUT YOUR SHEEP, your lovely Queen, and try to uphold that stiff upper lip.
Politicians, must remember…Some men have actually worked for a living, and being a politician, with all the endless lying and sycophantic smiling that comes with it, is a hard lesson to learn.
Give the man some time.
If our Olympic flag bearer lowers that flag to the Queen…I pity him when he gets home….because if and when the Brits come back here…we will make SURE they lower their flag to us.
Men. They are acting like women. It’s getting silly.
(Take it away, amfortas!)
Nobody Remembers Nadia Comaneci
Nobody Remembers
For those of you who weren’t born yet, you miss one of the biggest moments in Olympic history in 1976 : The Perfect 10’s of Romanian Nadia Comaneci. There were 7 of them. I STILL remember the emotion I felt when she got the perfect 10…first one in Olympic history. It was as if the whole world of women in sports had finally come into some kind of validation.
To just realize you were witnessing a moment of all time…for this small girl with the big brown eyes to come out of nowhere and dazzle the world with her long legs, intense focus, and impossible perfection…it was hard to forget. I still have her picture up on my wall…right in front of my treadmill (LoL) I have NEVER fallen off my treadmill, thanks to that picture.
Thanks Nadia!
This kind of pure genius comes only once in a millennium. There is real genius in taking a talent you might have and making yourself into a champion. Every year we have searched for another Nadia, and every year…there isn’t one. There are champions, not like the girl who was born with those long legs, that brilliant balance, and impeccable timing. She simply was PERFECT. That doesn’t happen very often in nature, and when it does, it’s incredible.
I sure hope in this year’s Olympics we have less of the “sex” stuff, and more of the inspiration stories of how hard you have to work to become the best at your sport. God knows the kids in the world could use some real wholesome idols right now.
Tomorrow we can lose ourselves in the games…and the world can stop arguing for a few moments, pull up their chairs, have a few beers…and cheer! And please…do we really care if Price Harry contacts the American Women’s Volleyball team?
Let’s hope London does us all proud. I’ll be looking for Nadia’s kids—Who are probably into computers, because that’s how it usually goes doesn’t it?
Nobody’s Fool: Thomas Sowell
Nobody’s Fool
I came upon this man almost by accident. My mother ordered a publication called Newsmax around the year 2000, and I started reading it. It’s there that I found a man with so much wisdom, and common sense, that I literally started waking up to what was going on around me. This was back when President Clinton was shaking his finger at the American people.
Just last week, in his usual Radom Thoughts column he had these two things to say:
If we wake up some morning and find some American cities in radioactive ruins, courtesy of a nuclear Iran, nobody is going to care whether the president who lets this happen is the first black president or the last WASP president. But, in the meantime, many people will keep on voting for symbolism, as if an election is a popularity contest, like choosing a college’s Homecoming Queen or Parade Marshal.
Two reports came out in the same week. One was from the Pentagon, saying that, in just a few years, Iran will be able to produce not only a nuclear bomb but a missile capable of carrying it to the United States. The other report said that the American Olympic team has uniforms made in China. This latter report received far more attention, both in Congress and in the media.
While I read many different books and magazines, internet blogs, etc…I have yet to find a man whose wisdom exceeds that of Thomas Sowell. To me, he is right up there with Mark Twain as an American Journalistic Icon. He is forever more— Nobody’s Fool.

I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
