It's May 22, 2011, and it looks like we are all still here. Hmmm, did we "miss the call", or could it be that Camping may have been wrong?

Passed on by a fellow BCer:

I am truly perplexed that so many of my friends are against a mosque being built at Ground Zero. I think it should be the goal of every American to be tolerant. Thus the Mosque should be allowed, in an effort to promote tolerance.

That is why I also propose that two nightclubs be opened next door to the mosque, thereby promoting tolerance from within the mosque. We could call one of the clubs, which would be gay, "The Turban Cowboy ", and the other a topless bar called "You Mecca Me Hot."

Next door should be a butcher shop that specializes in pork, and adjacent to that an open-pit barbecue pork restaurant, called " Iraq o' Ribs."
Across the street there could be a lingerie store called "Victoria Keeps Nothing Secret ", with sexy mannequins in the window modeling the goods.

Next door to the lingerie shop there would be room for an adult sex toy shop, "Koranal Knowledge ", its name in flashing neon lights, and on the other side a liquor store called "Morehammered."

All of this would encourage the Muslims to demonstrate the tolerance they demand of us, so the mosque problem would be solved. If you agree with promoting tolerance, and you think this is a good plan, please pass it on.....

You know, Emperor Scarlett O'Bama made a fortune off his book, "The Audacity of Hope". Guess his sequel will be "The Austerity of Change".

If Mayor Mother Teresa Obamalinson is going to hire an 'outside' entity to compare/evaluate/suggest solutions/direction for the Marshal Office, let's demand that such an "outside entity" not be a government agency/funded entity. No government agency/entity will side on reducing government jobs.

Healthcare is expensive enough without Hospitals running full page advertising pronouncing people awards that would be just as, if not more, effective if just presented in a presentation ceremony to their friends and co-workers at the Hospital.

Remember the car ads saying they can finance you if you bring home $350.00 a week? Today there is an employment ad for a car dealer saying it pays a monthly salary of $1200.00 while you train. Doesn't that mean the employees in training do not qualify for a new car?

L-E statement about itself: "The Ledger-Enquirer reaches more people every day than any other news source" -- I can assume the L-E is implying "locally" as other papers are bigger, but in this day and time, this cannot be true. I would summarily project that more people sign on to the internet daily than read a L-E newspaper, and the first thing we see when signing onto the internet is news, and what about the 'app' you probably have on your phone that alerts you to some form of news as 'the wires'?

How can a newspaper talk about local-based eating establishments in Columbus, and not mention Smokey Pig and Evelyn's? Out-of-towners, I surmise.
