An Accountant will ask, "How much does it cost?"

America the Great
America doesn’t need to win every dang thing to be great. We’ve got the Constitution, two George Bushes, great toilets—hell, we’ve played golf on the moon. I guess we can let Laos have a stupid wiener contest, can’t we?
Amen…
They don’t make em’ like this anymore
As you may or may not know, Warren Spahn died yesterday at the age of 82.
I’m not old enough to ever have seen him pitch a game, but I have folks who have. They don’t throw around the moniker “Greatest Left-Hander” for just anyone. Just look at his stats for crying out loud. Thirteen 20 win seasons, 363 Wins, 382 Complete Games and like a lot of players of his time, he missed three season while serving during WWII.
Compared to the wussified modern pitcher, Spahn was a horse and a lefty to boot.
I hope you haven’t eaten recently
Apparently, the flight that hit the first WTC Tower on that blissful morning of September 11th, 2001 never actually hit the Tower. You wanna know why it couldn’t have hit the Tower?
As the man once said: “I have seen enough to know that I have seen too much!”
How Convenient…
VH1 hands Natalie Maines an award for the Big Quote of 2003.
Upon accepting her award, Maines said, “There’s an old Texas expression. If you don’t have anything nice to say, go to London and say it in front of 2,000 people.”
Aww, how cute. And now, I nominate her for the Dumbest Quote of 2003:
“I think people were misled and I think people are fighting a war that they didn’t know they were going to be fighting,” Maines said Friday in a television interview. “And I think they were misled by people who should have been asking questions and weren’t.”
Fighting a war thay they didn’t know they were going to be fighting. Obviously, Natalies concept of how the military works is carefully thought out and crafted to make herself look like some sort of friggin’ genius. It must be so nice to live in the entertainment business, sheltered from real life and real people. And I take it 9/11 was just some blip on her radar screen I suppose...
Hope Teddy is right
Sen. Edward Kennedy, one of the legislation’s staunchest foes, said the bill ultimately would cause “the unraveling of the Medicare system.” He predicted Republicans would go on to attack Social Security after next year’s election.
Well Tedward, I’m actually hoping that comes true, since you democrats have done NOTHING in regards to that ponzi-scheme known as Social Security.
If this Medicare bill does reform it and modernize it, I’m all for it. It’s just the idea that a $395 billion bill most likely will be closer to $600 billion or even the Trillion-dollar mark.
Even Better
Hear that sound? It’s a rat-like scurrying sound of democrats trying to find something to use against Bush. Now that the economy has grown at an 8.2% clip as opposed to the original 7.2% rate.
Now, you can use all the democrat-approved Herbert Hoover lines all you want (you know who you are), but I doubt it’s going to have any substance anymore. Just chuck onto the discard pile.
Come up with something new Chachi, but while you’re trying in vain to come up with some pathetic zinger (since that’s all democrats seem to want to do), just do one thing for me: get ready for Four More Years.
