Palin & Johnston – a political mockery
Hey America, are you awake?! When will the mockery end?! Not enough that we’ve been graced with the incredibly inability of Sarah Palin and her ill fated attempt to snatch the Vice Presidency, now her daughter’s (former) boy toy, turned Playgirl Magazine star, is turning small town American politics into a freak show! +Continue Reading

So, what’s at stake? +Continue Reading
There’s a hole…in the ocean.
Congratulations BP! You have single handedly impacted the next, say…3?, generations of man kind. Your preposterous drilling for oil, your incompetence of doing the job right and observing safety standards is not just killing tons of wild life, but also robs the seafood loving consumers of their well deserved load of unlimited shrimp at Red Lobster! +Continue Reading
