ALL SORTS OF STUFF

congratulations to ARCHBISHOP BLASE CUPICH who was installed today as archbishop of chicago, replacing the vile and bitter cardinal francis george, who welcomed everyone into his church.....unless they were gay.  cupich appears to be far more opened minded to that situation and hopefully george's medival rantings will become a distant memory very soon.

what the hell was PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA thinking when he walked into a state dinner in china chewing gum?? it made him look like a hillbilly and embarrassed diplomats everywhere.

the EBOLA threat is not going away. over 5,000 people dead from the epidemic and another 14, 000 ill with the virus.  it's become very clear that unless you act when you first notice the symptoms, you are doomed to die a horrible death. the most recent victim, 44 yr. old DR. MARTIN SALIA, waited 13 days to report his symptoms and by then he was a goner.  get help when you first notice a problem.

the governor of missouri has declared a state of emergency in anticipation of riots when the grand jury releases it's finding in the shooting of ghetto thug michael brown back in august. as an old police officer told me once "the perfect solution to rioting is freezing temperatures and water hoses. it sends everyone home quickly."   sounds right to me.

for the record: people have the right to dissent PEACEFULLY but they don't have the right to riot,  destroy property and endanger lives. that's when they turn from protestors to criminals and they should be treated as such, swiftly & harshly.

i did not receive an invitation to charles manson's wedding.  the 81 year old mass murderer is marrying some 26 year old whack job. some things just shouldn't be allowed.

how about the lady in texas whose appealing her divorce settlement?!? attorney SUE ANN HAMM got three houses and a lump sum of 340,000,000 MILLION dollars PLUS 7 million a month for the next six years.  not good enough.  her attorney says they only got 7% of oil man HAROLD HAMM'S holdings but they want 25-30%. "we're not being greedy but fair is fair. we want a minimum of FOUR BILLION DOLLARS which is why we appealed."  i'm not sure how i feel about this one.

 just for perspective, when i got divorced we fought over custody of the dog and our cassette collection. that's right....cassettes.

looking for a job? UNITED AIRLINES announced that 2,500 flight attendants have accepted their $100,000 buyout offers and the retirement exodus begins november 30th so check it out.

  bye for now.
