When The World Is Running Down
You Make The Best Of What’s Still Around. A jury in Massachusetts awarded a man $400,000 in his discrimination lawsuit against American Airlines. He claimed that he was a victim of racial profiling. Obviously, it’s wrong to violate someone’s civil liberties because of the way they look. But people have to realize that 9/11 shook us up, and we’re going […]
Add It Up
I bought hotdogs and buns at the grocery store this weekend, and was glad to see the hotdog and bun people are finally working together. Both items now come in equal packages of eight. Stupidity Tax Offense: Putting ketchup on a hotdog. – Cha Ching. – $10. “Nah, this stuff isn’t getting to me — the […]
10 Things I Hate About You
A friend recently told me that his girlfriend made him wait six months before having sex.  The only situation where this is acceptable is when your girlfriend is 17 1/2 years old. Stupidity Tax Offense: Someone getting ready to leave says, “I’m off like a prom dress.” – Cha Ching! – $10.

I Don’t Want To Work

New Stupidity Tax: You show […]
Just What I Needed
Sherri thanks for the comment, but I may need to quit drinking; or learn karate.  Congratulations to Jake’s Leg on celebrating their 30th anniversary. After reading yesterday’s post, Michael O. said, “Every weekend has the potential to be a 3-day weekend. It’s all up to you.” New Stupidity Tax – “If I tell you, I’ll have […]
Pinch Me
As if things weren’t looking bad enough for Republicans in November, former heavyweight champ Mike Tyson is campaigning for the GOP Senate candidate in Maryland. That should help. What did Mike Tyson say when they put him into solitary confinement? “Hey, where did everybody go?” (The punch line is funnier if you say it in […]
