The Breakfast Club - September 2, 2010

A company in China started running billboard ads on Princess Di's 13th 'anniversary' of her death promoting lingerie on a Princess Di look-alike. The Princess Diana Appreciation Society is incensed. So incensed that it has caused ti whole world to become aware of the billboards. The lingerie company is laughing its way all the way to the Briar Patch bank.

The Senate race in California could be a slugfest measuring the effect of Boxer's 'left jabs' countered by Fiorina's 'right punch'.

From "the sky is falling' department - Online story: "(Sept. 1) -- Jamestown, Va., the site of the first permanent English colony in what became the United States, could be wiped off the map by climate change, researchers warned today. * As the polar ice caps melt, rising sea levels could completely swamp the historical location that has stood as an icon of American history for the past 400 years, according to a new study by the Natural Resources Defense Council and the Rocky Mountain Climate Organization." -- Jamestown has "weathered'' well for over 400 years, and the only man-made threat it really has to 'weather' for the future is whenever DIM/DUMBorats rule the nation.

Online story: "(Sept. 1) -- A New York man plunged 39 stories from a Manhattan apartment building and crash-landed on a parked sports car. The car was totaled, but the man survived." -- Geez! It was 'an apparent suicide attempt'. Now we can expected a 'wrongful life extension' law suit against the man who parked his car there.

Rumor has it that the developer of the Ground Zero Hamas-que has applied for use of tax-free US development bonds. Blow your representatives ears off in opposition for tax payers to be funding this mental assault on American history!

Saw a Ford F-150 yesterday as I was going to work. It was decked out with a big 24 back window decal, and dual side window flags with the number 24 fluttering hard as he drove along. I'm guessing he's a big Jeff Gordon fan, but shouldn't a true Jeff Gordon fan be driving a Chevy?

If the school zone flashing lights are going to be flashing regardless of when children are arriving/departing schools, shouldn't there be school crossing guards present when those lights are flashing?

What is it with the 'quit smoking aides'? I've 'quit' smoking 3 times without any 'aides' except God's reassurances. I quit smoking cigarettes for '1 year' on my 30th birthday. Went through a divorce and lost 1 pound during that year, and on my 31st b'day, bought a fresh carton of my old brand and lit one up. It was the worst tasting thing I'd ever put in my mouth so I swore never to tell anyone I smoked because I enjoyed the taste. Quit again shortly before my 42nd b'day. Just decided it was time. No ceremony, no turning back. In the mid-90's, I started smoking good cigars. When my wife decided she was going to quit smoking cigarettes 7 years ago, I quit my cigars in support. She had previously "tried" to stop several times, but had never tried because it was what she wanted. This is the key to quitting, you quit because you want to quit, and no 'smoking aide' will help with that. If anyone is still smoking, and wants to quit, e-mail me, and I will give you a couple of tips at how you can help yourself accomplish this.
