RON PAUL 2012

Ron Paul apparently takes 2nd in New Hampshire's straw poll for the 2012 race. Its gonna be a fun year of campaigning if Paul can make it. I don't know how a guy in his late 70's is able to garner enough energy to keep going like he does. The guy is my hero. Seriously.

Here's a link to the article:

Poor Olbermann...

Keith Olbermann is going to be a little less rich in a couple years if he doesn't do some wrangling in the meantime. He's wandered back and forth and then back and forth again with his stances on certain subjects that I pay attention to, so his leaving is inconsequential to me. I see though that his severance package will pay him his salary of $7 million a year to do absolutely nothing... this also happened to Jesse Ventura after he left his governor's position in MN. Now Ventura has his show Conspiracy Theory, will the same happen to Olbermann - only on a liberal level?

Here's the link to an article by TMZ about Olbermann wanting MORE money. I don't understand why some people can't just leave well-enough alone and enjoy their success. Same thing just happened to Regis I think too - the guy was getting paid $18-20 million a year, that too wasn't enough. What's wrong with these people??? If you could weigh their collective egos, I wonder if they'd break a scale?

drumming with Thomas Lang..

This is an amazing clip - albeit a rather blurry one - from YouTube of a drum clinic Thomas Lang appears in. Its amazing... it really gets interesting around 3:30 into the clip...

Tuition paid in ONE DOLLAR bills...

This guy is crafty. He paid his entire tuition for a semester of school in ONE DOLLAR BILLS! The report says the bag he used weighed about 30 pounds when it was finally full of ones. Apparently, he's trying to make a point about the ridiculous cost of the ever-rising student tuition. He's doing a good job... everyone should see this.

Holyfield still fighting?

I heard a local radio spot today advertising some big entertainment night in Orlando. Apparently, Evander Holyfield will be fighting. This is amazing... it seems like a decade ago when he got his ear bit off by Mike Tyson, and even back then Holyfield was an old draw.

3rd grader "hit it hard a lot"

Speaking after getting caught smoking pot in his elementary school's bathroom, the 3rd grader says this when asked how many times he's smoked pot, "hit it hard a lot". So, he hits it hard a lot... someone's parents are going to have to answer some questions I'm afraid. And those parents are definitely not hitting the kid enough... the generation of parents today were the last one to be spanked I think. Therein lies the problem...

biggest yacht in the world...

The biggest yacht in the world is in the works now - while the rest of the world is in a depression. So, apparently this giant yacht, the world's most expensive and large, is being designed and will soon become a reality... only for $1 billion.

Good Lord, what has this world come to? It will be home to 16 people and 70 servants... or 70 wait staff... whichever politically correct term you'd like to use.
