To keep overtaxed Hollywood filmmakers from fleeing California, Democrat Governor Jerry Brown…
Was working on a post for today, but didn’t get it done so I’ll finish it and post it tomorrow. I haven’t been really satisfied with my post quality for some time, so now I want to work on some higher quality posts — of the type I enjoy writing — but that may mean it may take more than one day to get them done considering the limited time I have for blogging (I’m working on a couple different books each morning in addition to blogging).
So if Harvey asks, tell him I’m hard at work writing.
You know what’s up with the ex-girlfriend of Kim Jong-un? Nothing. She’s dead.
According to reports, Hyon Song-wol was executed a little over a week ago.
That’s the difference between the United States and North Korea. Their dictator’s ex-girlfriend? Shot by a firing squad. Ours’? Never existed.
And that’s what makes America great. It used to be that someone without a real job and with imaginary friends would be wandering the streets pushing a shopping cart. Today, that same person can sit in the Oval Office.
For some reason, though, I’m not comforted by that.
Obama had a nightmare that he was living in a nation where he was judged not by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character.
I dream of a day when racism and accusations of racism aren’t effective political tools.
The Dark Ages ended with the invention of coffee and whiteboards.
I understand what rights are, but I’ve never really understood what civil rights are.
“We shall overcome! …unless someone asks for a photo ID.”
Things aren’t worse in this country; we’re just much whinier than we used to be.
So what’s the friendship level where you avenge death? Is that before or after helping someone move?
So, as a society, how far are we from just being able to stop talking about race so much?
I can see how duck calls and decoys will help you catch some ducks, but what if you’re hunting introvert ducks?

The human spirit can be damaged. It can be denied and suppressed, but it cannot be destroyed. This is something that has never been understood by tyrants, socialists, and others who believe they have the right to direct the lives of others.
A new Detroit water park opened without water due to a break in a poorly-maintained water main.
What a disaster of a city. If it were in Nevada, I bet they’d have trouble filling a sandbox.

Many people are completely unaware of a dangerous substance sitting on their pantry shelves. It’s commonly known by its street name: “bread.”
Facts About Bread
* More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread eaters.
* Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests.
* Newborn babies can choke on bread.
* Bread is baked at temperatures as high as 400 degrees Fahrenheit! That kind of heat can kill an adult in less than one minute.
* In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever and influenza ravaged whole nations.
* More than 90 percent of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread.
* Bread is made from a substance called “dough.” It has been proven that as little as one pound of dough can be used to suffocate a mouse. The average American eats more bread than that in one month!
* Primitive tribal societies that have no bread exhibit a low occurrence of cancer, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s disease and osteoporosis.
* Bread has been proven to absorb water. Since the human body is more than 90 percent water, it follows that eating bread could lead to your body being taken over by this absorptive food product, turning you into a soggy, gooey bread-pudding person.
* Most American bread eaters are utterly unable to distinguish between significant scientific fact and meaningless statistical babbling.
Take Action Now!
In light of these frightening statistics, we propose the following bread restrictions:
* No sale of bread to minors.
* No advertising of bread within 1000 feet of a school.
* A 300 percent federal tax on all bread to pay for all the societal ills we might associate with bread.
* No animal or human images, nor any primary colors (which may appeal to children) may be used to promote bread usage.
* Limits on the sale of large amounts of bread, no use of bread in public places such as restaurants and sandwich shops.
* Eventually, a total ban on the production, sale and use of bread.
Join the fight to combat this dangerous substance. Write your representatives today!

Popular clothing company “Forever 21” is limiting its non-management workers’ hours to 29.5 a week to avoid triggering the Obamacare employer mandate.
To seem more Obamacare-supportive, though, they’re changing their name to “Forever 26”.
We may not agree on abortion, but surely we can agree on reducing the number of unwanted pregnancies in this country. The reality of gun ownership may be different for hunters in rural Ohio than for those plagued by gang-violence in Cleveland, but don’t tell me we can’t uphold the Second Amendment while keeping AK-47s out of the hands of criminals. I know there are differences on same-sex marriage, but surely we can agree that our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters deserve to visit the person they love in the hospital and to live lives free of discrimination. Passions fly on immigration, but I don’t know anyone who benefits when a mother is separated from her infant child or an employer undercuts American wages by hiring illegal workers. This too is part of America’s promise – the promise of a democracy where we can find the strength and grace to bridge divides and unite in common effort.
BARACK OBAMA, DNC speech, Aug. 28, 2008
“Anyway, now that I’ve admitted that only conservative positions actually sound sane or reasonable, roll over and give me abortion, gun bans, gay marriage, and amnesty for illegals.”

People are always saying to me, “Frank, why do you keep writing about politics? I don’t care about politics. Can you write about something else?”
I don’t know who these people are; they’re always gone by the time I turn around. In fact, it might just be voices in my head. But anyway, I’ve always loved animals ever since I was a kid. Well, I loved them as a kid and I’m kinda eh about them now, but I know a few little-known fun facts about animals to share with you. Well, they might be fun; I’m not really sure. If they’re not fun, hey I’m sorry. The voices told me to write this post.
FUN ANIMAL FACTS
* If you roll an alligator on its back, it will be unable to right itself. Try it. It only works with really big ones.
* Polar bears are only naturally white when young, as eventually their furs turns brown as they get older. Thus Eskimos bleach adult polar bears so they’ll meet tourist expectations.
* The eagle is the only bird legally able to rent a car.
* No matter how much it begs, no matter how much it cries, never loan a sloth money.
* It’s not true that honey badgers don’t care about anything, something you’ll find out if you mention the Fed in front of one.
* Lions used to be one of the most prosperous species, living on all continents and dominating the food chain. But that was like a thousand years ago and now they’re just violent militants.
* Little is known about the deep-sea dwelling giant squid other than that it is deathly afraid of clowns.
* Despite its duck-like appearance, the platypus, much like Adolph Hitler, is a mammal.
* The turtle’s shell was an evolutionary adaptation allowing a turtle to get free food at parties while still being a severe introvert.
* The chimpanzee is the smartest animal other than human, but it’s not like it’s going to develop a cure for cancer or anything so who cares?
* The main difference between a wolf and a domesticated dog is how easily is can recognize that Beggin’ Strips aren’t real bacon.
* The penguins, being a bird that can’t fly, are extremely bitter and angry.
* Scientist still don’t understand how a snake moves without any limbs. Then again, they haven’t really studied it because then they’d have to touch snakes.
* The extra ‘l’ in llama is for savings.
* Leave a lizard in water too long and it will become a salamander.
* There’s only one known poisonous bird. His name is Jeremy. Keep an eye out for him.
