Re: Bad Apple

According to something or another I saw on the internet the most-used thing on an iPhone is the camera.  Therefore, the word is that next year Apple will do nothing to their current device; they will merely rename it the iCamera. (ETA — And the sheeple will still stand in line to buy it.  *sigh........

Re: F-22 Bloodies Its Talons

The A-10 is a good plane and there is no REAL reason to retire it except to free up budget for the F35 which can't do the A-10's job half as well as the A-10 can. It's just that the F35 can do several other jobs "adequately" (so they say) and the Military's bean counters say one plane doing 3 jobs ...

Re: Death's ups and downs.

It is obvious from the chart that cars are killing fewer people each year in motor accidents, but that gun deaths are remaining constant. Even as the total amount of guns in the public realm has increased. Medical science has gotten better — sadly, through experience. http://www.picgifs.com/smileys...

Re: President gets Grylled

You forgot the six figure speaking and appearance fees. Anyone who wasn't rich before they became President, surely becomes so afterwards. But that's not provided by the government or by the taxpayers, and that's what TPFKA@W seemed to be so upset about. http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smileys-and-e...

Re: President gets Grylled

The job comes with a ridiculous number of perks which I suppose is why anyone would court it at such huge expense. From a quick search on the 'net: Since 2001, the president has earned a $400,000 annual salary (increased at that time from $200K) , along with a $50,000 annual expense account, a $100...

Re: Shane's gnashers get TV special

When television is good, nothing — not the theater, not the magazines or newspapers — nothing is better. But when television is bad, nothing is worse.  I invite each of you to sit down in front of your television set when your station goes on the air and stay there, for a day, without a book, witho...
