Fly It Like You Stole It
This looks like the world’s funnest pilot job:

He Keeps Using That Word…
A new report shows that the richest 1% of Americans earned 15% of the income but paid 24% of federal taxes.
So… is Obama SURE he wants the rich to pay their “fair share”?
Just In Case Your “Santa” Turns Out to Be a Burglar
[High Praise! to ThinkGeek]
When folks think of a tactical approach to the holidays, they tend to be talking about the best way to get the last parking spot at the mall or what route to take on the highways so you’re moving as opposed to sitting still while traveling.
Here at ThinkGeek, we’re bringing a little something different to your tactical holiday planning: our Tactical Holiday Stocking. It’s got integrated MOLLE straps on the outside, a swivel carabiner on the top and at the ankle, two quick-release clips on the toe, a hook-and-loop panel near the top, a bi-directional side zipper, a top handle, and a small, external pouch for additional coal storage (for those folks who have been extra bad – you know who you are). And, of course, it’s black.

Lost my movie buff status when I said, "Oh, this is that movie where the guy plays chess with death like in Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey!"

Reputation Matters
Satirical newspaper “The Onion” is hiring a financial adviser to help find a buyer for the company.
I heard they turned down an offer from the New York Times because the Onion feared losing credibility.
Obama Warned Us – Do Your Part
This is no time to sit on the sidelines. Do your part to help Americans get covered: http://ofa.bo/f1XT
“Yourself and your family don’t count as Americans. Get everyone else covered, then maybe you & yours if there’s anything left over.”
Straight Line of the Day: Eric Holder Announced a New DOJ Program to End Racial Profiling…
Works like this: I feed you Moon Nukers a straight line, and you hit me with a punch line in the comments.
Eric Holder announced a new DoJ program to end racial profiling…
Special Needs: A Holocaust
How to spot a liar
Hired
So, I applied for this position.
Passed the initial interview.
Started work on Tuesday.
Of course there’s always that tricky probationary period, but this could end up being a good career move.
I’ll keep you posted…
Random Thoughts: Eric Garner
The biggest nonsense about the Obama daughters criticism scandal is that anyone cares about the dignity of a turkey pardoning ceremony.
If you want to show dignity for the office of the president, don’t pardon turkeys in big ceremonies.
So basically NYC cops can choke you to death over 75 cents?
If Bloomberg got his way, people would also be strangled to death over selling large sodas.
Body cameras on police officers will allow us to get even more righteously angry when cops aren’t indicted.
Another reminder that before you propose a law, ask if you’re willing to kill someone over this. Because that happens. #EricGarner
Obama: “Let this be a lesson: Pay your Obamacare tax or I’ll have police strangle you.”
The Border Patrol Needs 3-Headed Dogs
Ahead of President Obama’s executive order on amnesty, one Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent was quoted as saying “working for this agency is hell right now”.
The biggest difference: hell doesn’t let everyone in.
