    In that case you are qualified to be a congressman and serve on the science committee.

    wonder who's going to be paying for this, regardless of whether dems or repubs are running the show;

    "The fiscal outlook for the U.S. "is not good," according to Goldman Sachs, and "lawmakers might hesitate to approve fiscal stimulus in the next downturn." The bank expects the federal deficit to increase from $825B (or 4.1% of GDP) to $1.25T (5.5% of GDP) by 2021, and by 2028, it forecasts the number to balloon to $2.05T (7% of GDP)."

    I can guarantee it won't be the CEO's making 500 million $/yr.  Most likely they'll just rob Social Security and take the food out of the mouths of people who worked and payed for those 500 million dollar salaries.

    Wonder what Babe Ruth, Jackie Robinson, and Joe DiMaggio would think?

    suddenly I'm hearing Boz Skaggs, "I been in the right place, but it must have been the wrong time..."

    "Three more notes were sent over the course of six weeks — with one even offering Michael $1,100 “so you can find a place to stay” and another suggesting options to either fix or get rid of his broken car.

    “There are jobs available even for those with a poor work history like you,” one of the notes reads. “Get one — you have to work!”

    But Michael, who’s lived at his parents’ for the past eight years, has refused to pack up and leave — prompting his mom to file the official eviction proceeding May 7.

    The stubborn son, who is acting as his own lawyer, is now fighting to have his mom’s suit tossed, claiming his parents are legally required to give him six months’ notice to leave, according to his filing.

    He also claims he’s “never been expected to contribute to household expenses, or assisted with chores and the maintenance of the premises.”

    Who's Rob Rousseau?

    Well, as long as he's pimping his daughter to MS-13, perhaps one of them will make him his beach as well.

    ^ That's outstanding! ^

    Meanwhile, from Stilton's Place:


    Some stories are just too dumb for us to ignore. As a case in point, West Hollywood just presented their "Key to the City" to porn actress Stormy Daniels for her great community service in **** married men and violating non-disclosure agreements.

    Of course, that's not what they said she was being honored for. Rather, it was for her tremendous leadership in the "resist" movement (even though she didn't "resist" and never has unless she was worried that the check wouldn't clear) and for "speaking truth to power," which makes us wonder what the hell "truth" they're talking about. This is hardly a Wikileaks type situation, although Ms. Daniels should get full credit for kicking off the new phenomenon of Dikileaks.

    We'd say more, but we have a sudden urge to go register a new domain name.



    Meanwhile in Boston, Joel Martinez, a Salvadoran illegal alien, told the court “I stabbed the culero three times” when admitting he killed a 15 year old boy as part of his MS-13 initiation. Martinez admission bought him a 40 year max sentence followed by deportation, depending who is president at the time. But none of that is the part you can't make up. Here's the part you can't make up: Joel's gang nickname is Animal
