Kennedy Remembered By Obama At Funeral

These words from President Obama will be remembered forever. At Senator Ted Kennedy's funeral, many hearts were touched and brought together in the wake of this tremendous loss. The state of Massachusetts will be changed for a long time. The entire country will have to figure out if there will ever be a man like him again.

Here is an excerpt from yesterdays eulogy, given by President Barrack Obama:

"He was given a gift of time that his brothers were not. And he used that time to touch as many lives and right as many wrongs as the years would allow," Obama said in a eulogy that also gently made mention of Kennedy's "personal failings and setbacks."

As a member of the Senate, Kennedy was a "veritable force of nature," the president said. But more than that, the "baby of the family who became its patriarch, the restless dreamer who became its rock."

Those left behind to mourn "grieve his passing with the memories he gave, the good he did, the dream he kept alive" Obama said inside the packed church

That's from this article

Those are some mighty fine words.

What is a shocker to me is what Huckabee said about both Obama and Kennedy a few days ago. He couldn't even wait for the funeral to pass.

Did you hear what that devil said?

Check it out...

The 2008 Republican presidential candidate suggested during his radio show, "The Huckabee Report," on Thursday that, under President Obama's health care plan, Kennedy would have been told to "go home to take pain pills and die" during his last year of life.

No class that man...in fact he aint even a man in my book.

He's more like a Dirty Dog...sing it Boo Boo!

The Madoff Gang?

Now, it's official. They're a gang. I wonder what they would be if they were a gang of rappers...

IWA ? (Investors with attitude)
The East Side Ponzi Posse?
The Mady Bunch?
The Credit Cripplers?
Public Finance Enemy
The Banksters?
The MC's? (Madoff Creditors)
A Tribe Called Trust?

Who knows? I don't think they were listening to the good folks music. Like some blues or country or rock and roll. Even real hip hoppers don't screw people over in that grand of a fashion.
Sounds like Bernie and his "gang" have been doing crime since they were young.

Sex Sex Sex...The Nature Of The Beast

I love the internet. It aint nothin' like I was ever used to in my day. I read an article today about the sweet taboo. The horizontal ballet. The Olympic Pillow games. The hide and seek swap. The magic pickle dance. You know...sex. Now a days you can say it, think it, talk about it, use it for advertisments, sell products...and more importantly, criticize it to the bone marrow.
Here is a little bit of what I read:
"Let's start with the experience of sexual energy. You can try this exercise by yourself. It helps if you know how to do pelvic rocking. Lie down with your knees bent, feet about hip distance apart, and your low back flat on the floor (don't try this if you have back problems). As you rock your pelvis back with a slight arch, breathe in and as you tuck your pelvis, breathe out. Do this for just a few minutes and then lower your knees, straightening them to rest on the floor and continue breathing. Visualize energy moving up your spine with the in-breath and moving down the front of your body with the out breath." (read more)

Ok...honestly? I had to go to the bathroom for a minute and readjust my libido. You see, the problem with folks these days is that on the topic of sex, hardly anybody leaves NOTHING TO THE IMAGINATION. We need more people with a discrete attitude about it. Listen to this man talk about sex the way WE used to...we called it love.

Blues For The Auto World: Who You Callin' A Clunker?!

All the best cars were made back in the good old days. What's wrong with gettin' old?

That is a natural process. Some a y'all be throwin' old people away into homes. Must be the new culture...

And all I hear now is that these new cars are "healthier" for the environment. Whatever the hell that means. Maybe if there was only 15 cars in the world. But because EVERYBODY needs one, I aint really sure if it's gonna make that big of a difference for the environment, with these "new" state of the art vehicles. The factories that make the damn things aint runnin' on bio fules.

But I guess the point is that folks are steady tryin' to make a difference. Which I can't really argue against. The government is tryin' this cash for clunkers idea. Gettin' them old cars off the road to make room for the newer ones. Go ahead Obama. Do yo thang, brothah. AT least he makes it sound good. That last fool would a said something stupid by now.

Meanwhile THIS brothah has a song for the auto industry, regardless of how many clunkers we throw in the bunkers...

Take a truly old school motor city blues, with guitar and piano boogying and harmonica wailing out, add 100% contemporary lyrics and you get a modern classic of industrial strength blues. Perfect lemonade made out o’ some raw lemons.

Dope Is Called Dope For Two Reasons Now

Manny Ramirez and David Ortiz, the sluggers who propelled the Boston Red Sox to end an 86-year World Series championship drought and to capture another title three years later, were among the roughly 100 Major League Baseball players to test positive for performance-enhancing drugs in 2003, according to lawyers with knowledge of the results. (article from NY times)

These lawyers are like bloodhounds with a rolodex and a computer. Nothin' escapes their wrath for legal vengeance. I guess with all the world's news and head lines, two more Baseball players are just gonna blend right in. Why? Why do Baseball players need to take dope? The sport is pretty laid back as far as I can tell. Let the football players take the dope. And the Hockey players. They need it more than a bunch of grown men just standin' around waitin' for somebody to do something exciting. Maybe dope enchances the game for the players because they get so bored. I dunno...

Aye...you wanna hear something that's dope?

40th Aniiversary For Apollo...gr8...Now What?

NASA is finishing construction of the station, a $100 billion project of 16 nations, and plans to retire the shuttle fleet next year. After that, the United States plans to pay Russia to ferry crews to the outpost, which orbits 225 miles above Earth.

"We've spent a lot of money up there for almost nothing. It's almost a white elephant," Apollo 13 commander Jim Lovell said. "Until we can really get a return on our investment on that particular project, then it was money wasted."

One small step for man....one giant economic disaster for mankind.

Seems to me these new NASA folks aint really tryin' to hear what the WEED is for! Look y'all, if you want minimal spending for a useless outer body experience...get a card and go down to the club and get some Lunar Crush. Or some Galaxy Quest. Maybe some Rocket Red Eye. Otherwise spend the big money on the kids. Before they grow up and start complainin' about everything like we do. Broke.

Feed 'em. Clothe 'em. Educate them. But don't make these poor kids look at the heavans above wishin' on a star that's made of steel. That aint right. And it always ends up as something we regret as people. Listen to these children sing about a penny waitin' on change.
