1. Did you know on this day in 1850 California became the 31st state of the union?
Bad taste, plastic surgery, and vapid drones were not introduced until about 120 years later.
2. Did you further know, that the constitution of the state of California starts with "We, the People of the State of California, grateful to Almighty God for our freedom, in order to secure and perpetuate its blessings, do establish this Constitution."
Hmmm. Almost like California was established as a Christian state. My, those framers must be VERY proud of the heritage their progenies have built.
3. Fidel Castro, he of the perpetual Green Suit, now says that Communism does not work for Cuba.
When asked if Cuba's economic model (communism to those in public education) was worth exporting to other countries, the man who killed to be king said "The Cuban model doesn't even work for us anymore." Wow. Please take off your Che Guevara shirts now and grow up.
4.And speaking of Communism, I mean, California... Barbara "Call me Senator" Boxer has the BEST office... on weed.
Her senior aide Marcus "Redeye" Stanley was nabbed by Capitol Police on Tuesday for trying to get some pot (marijuana, weed, grass. for those in public education) into the Senate Office Building. It is hard to tell kids that weed is bad for you when Marcus McStoney has been a congressional staffer since 2007 and is making a six-figure paycheck. Of course, if I had to listen to Barbara "I am your Queen" Boxer all day, every day, I would want to have some special tea to start my day, too.
5. And finally, the INSULT OF THE DAY.This one is nearly too easy. A judge in New Jersey told Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, (she of Jersey Shore "fame") that she was "acting like a Lindsay Lohan wannabe". That is so classic and epic, I cannot even insult her beyond that. I mean, sure, "Snooki" probably had to run out and find someone to tell her what "Wannabe" meant, but after that little hurdle was conquered I am sure she took the advice to heart and dedicated to become a better person.Sure.
And that is the internet today, Thursday the 9th of September. A wasteland of wasted public servants, sub-Lohan Snookies, and failed Communism.
Go forth and conquer!
Nice. enjoyed it thoroughly. We Texans love to comment on how we were an independant nation and the only state to have ever kicked another country's ass, but alas, California had their uprising. 13 killed initially, then the regulars came up from Baja to help out and the U.S. Cav showed up on a "random" patrol and saved the day. Hey, it really did happen sometimes.
ReplyDeleteAddi9tionally, the "president" of California, once securely turned over to the U.S., re-enlisted as a private in the U.S. Army Infantry corps to serve there in California at his prior posting...hmmm...
Awesome, Rick. Thanks.
