There is nothing worse then sitting next to a fat chick on the train that smells like French Fries…very very bad.
NEWS & CURRENT EVENTS
It only took investigators 53 hours to find the asshole that tried to set off a car bomb in the middle of Times Square. They caught this Pakistani fool on board a plane headed to Dubai. I think the FBI should be insulted by how stupid this guy was. The bomb didn’t even go off because Moron didn’t open the propane tanks and tried to use firecrackers as a fuse…he should get life with out parole just for being a fucking idiot. Not to be outdone in stupidity, the Pakistani Taliban at first actually claimed responsibility for the failed attack. Seriously how sad and powerless must you be when you are taking credit for an attack that was ultimately thwarted by a street vender and wouldn’t have gone off anyway? Peace to Duane Jackson, a handbag seller twice as smart as any of these wannabe terrorist nitwits.
In equally charming news, a few weeks ago I criticized President Obama for caving to Republican pressure and allowing off shore drilling off the coast of Virginia. Well after the current situation in the Gulf of Mexico, I hope he reconsiders. Notice how silent those “Drill Baby Drill” assholes are now? Yeah it’s kinda hard to shout out stupidities when you are drowning in spilled crude oil, unless of course they are blaming Obama for an oil spill. It’s the people of Louisiana who are once again taking a huge environmental hit. Still recovering from Katrina 5 years ago, an oil spill was the last thing they needed. The response has been swift and competent; a refreshing change from Republicans who respond only after they calculate how much profit will be gained from the rescue effort.
The combination of these events may have effectively killed Homeland Security Director Janet Napolitano’s chances at a Supreme Court nomination. Not to mention she is the former Governor of Arizona, a state that has been getting a bit of attention nowadays isn’t it? For the record, she vetoed similar laws when she was in office. But kinda like the Yankees not starting Joba Chamberlain, she is desperately needed where she is right now, and her position can’t afford someone less competent.
SPORTS
Speaking of the Yankees, it’s way too early for the MASH Unit to be activated in the Bronx, but it looks like 4 key players are gonna be out for a while - Curtis Granderson, Mariano Rivera, Jorge Posada and now Andy Pettitte with that elbow. They couldn’t have picked a worse time to be hurt as this weekend is that big series against the Boston Red Sox at Fenway.
The only comment I’m going to make about the Lawrence Taylor story is that I hope it isn’t true.
THIS WEEK’S REASON WHY TERRORISTS WANNA KILL US
Some traditions die hard. In the spirit of booing and throwing things at a Santa Claus on Christmas, cheering as Michael Irvin suffered a career ending neck injury or just purposely vomiting on a child, it’s nice to see that sports fans in Philadelphia have not lost their mojo. Monday night during a Phillies home game, some asshole decided it would be a good idea to run on to the field. Pencil neck was not just stopped by security, that wouldn’t be a story; no…he was tasered by police. Tasered…at a ball game. Seriously when you leave your house to go the stadium, does the thought that you may end up tasered tonight ever enter your mind? Police procedure dictates that tasering is acceptable when a criminal suspect is fleeing the scene of a crime, but was this idiot really a threat, or just a moron? Because if we can taser morons there are a lot of people in my immediate grab area that will be going home electrocuted tonight. There is no way that force such as this is acceptable at a ball game. Especially considering that there are hundreds of deaths every year attributed to the use of this so called “non-lethal” force. I can understand using it on a criminal suspect fleeing a bank robbery, but the guy was running in the middle of Citizens Bank Park for the purposes of making a complete ass of himself in front of 40,000 people, seriously where was he going to flee to? What serious crime was he committing? I heard sports reporters saying that this would serve as a deterrent for anyone else attempting to run onto the field. Really? Well, that lasted a mere 24 hours as last night another idiot promptly did the same thing, only this time no one was tasered. Too bad no amount of tasering could deter him from wearing those pants.
