Online story: "Keith Olbermann has been fired by Current TV, the network announced Friday. He will be replaced by former New York governor and CNN host Eliot Spitzer. * The channel released a statement signed by Al Gore and Joel Hyatt, the founders of the network, on Friday. The statement made plain that Current's relationship with Olbermann had devolved to an unsustainable point: * To the Viewers of Current:
We created Current to give voice to those Americans who refuse to rely on corporate-controlled media and are seeking an authentic progressive outlet. We are more committed to those goals today than ever before. Current was also founded on the values of respect, openness, collegiality, and loyalty to our viewers. Unfortunately these values are no longer reflected in our relationship with Keith Olbermann and we have ended it." --Liberals just kill me...."loyalty TO our viewers"? Like all political DIM&DUMBERats, 'loyalty' is holding a finger into the air to see which way the wind is blowing versus making your opinion consistent that viewers/voters willingly give you their loyalty.

Online headline: "Obama Urges Congress To Pass 'Buffett Rule' Tax" -- And Warren Buffet will urge his army of CPAs and brokers to simply reduce his taxable income.

Today I am making a change. Have you seen the latest Gillette ads boasting about using it's blades for 5 weeks. Today I'm changing my Schick Hydro blade after 3 months! Have been using them for about 18 months, and using them 30 days was my usual pattern, bu ob January 1st, I decided to see how long I could use one comfortably, so I have been using it since. Today I am changing, not because the shave isn't still good, but because I wanted to share this with you. BTW, I do not own any Schick stock.

L-E headline: "Over 200 hooded marchers rally in downtown Columbus for justice for Trayvon Martin" -- Yesterday's 'march' wasn't about justice. It was anger, hatred and racist. It was about 'black & white', though like our president, George Zimmerman is half white, but yesterday's protesters, who consider potUS O'Blather black, consider George Zimmerman 'white' versus Latino. Hatred is not about justice; hatred is as hatred does. It's all about attitude. If Zimmerman's story is factual, and you still are angry, then it's not about facts or justice. If Zimmerman's story is proven false, then Zimmerman should be prosecuted. Period!

Gas is close to $4.00 a gallon for regular. I'm pretty sure it will already be that for anyone buying gas in Florida this week. I remember, in 1973, pulling out of a gas station in Panama City because it's pumps were all $1.019, and I was not going to pay a dollar or more for gas. Drove all the way back into Dothan on fumes to get gas for under $1.00. I also remember, during 'gas wars', filling my gas tank for less that $2.00. I also remember cartons of cigarettes being less than $2.00. At what cigarettes cost now, I'd never would have smoked at all. March 23rd of this year commemorated my 23rd year of quitting smoking cigarettes.

So Georgia, and I'm sure our Council and MCSD Board, want to collect sales taxes on internet sales that currently do not collect such taxes. Before hiring legal staffs to go after them, why not make lawyers collect/pay sales taxes on the 'time' they sell to clients? Just because lawyers can write them out of such laws doesn't mean they should be exempt from collecting/paying them.

It's sorta suspect that the three Mega Millions lottery winners live in Maryland, Illinois, and Kansas, Well, not so much Kansas, but potUS O'Blather is from Illinois, and VPoTUS Biden is from Maryland. Conspiracy?

Chris Johnson's column is actually humerous and worth reading (and acknowledging) today. If he wrote like this all the time, I'd probably have read his stuff in the past.
