A Few Quick Things

It's called bombing. If it were a collegiate test, I would've scored a 20 out of 100. It's called our Football Future-see picks from the weekend. We went 1-4 for the week.

Somehow this past weekend of college football became the gauntlet for top ten teams. 6 of the top 13 went down. Now Kentucky is number 8 in the land, LSU has jumped over USC for number one. My favorite stat: the SEC has five teams in the top twelve. Nice.

Politically....

Hillary is saying that the government should give every child that is born a $5000 bank account that can begin to accrue interest immediately so that the child can go to college. It's a wonderful gesture, but where exactly does ye olde federal government get the money? That's right... it comes from your pocket. Ahhhh... socialism.

Over in Mother Russia our good friend Vlad "The Election Rigger" Putin has stated that he plans to run for Prime Minister after stepping down as President early next year. Am I the only one who is worried by Putin's power grabs?

Apparently Burma... or is it Myanmar?... no wait... it is Burma, is killing anybody who's name contains a vowel. A defector recently revealed to the London Daily Times that the number of executions in Burma can easily be counted in te thousands.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (pronounced "I'm-A-Dinner-Jacket") (thanks, Robert) visited the US in the past few days and made a few bold statements, including the little ditty about how Iran doesn't have the "homosexual phenomenon." This coming from the same man who says the Holocaust never happened..."

We need help...
Sanjay, where are you?
