Saw a great documentary,

last night, 'Enron-The Smartest Guys in the Room', about the Texas power transmission company that quadrupled the price of electricity in California, with fraudulent 'rolling blackouts' to justify it, (I was out there working, then) and it's executives were eventually tried, found guilty and setenced to decades in prison. Not only did they rip off California utility customers, but de-frauded their own employees with stock scams and wrecked all their 401k's and pensions. The big boys went to prison, EXCEPT for Ken Lay, who happened to mysteriously die, at his vacation home in Aspen, right before sentencing. There was no autopsy and he was immediately cremated before any officials could identify the body. There have been many 'sightings' of this personal friend of GWBush, whose hundred million dollar fortune was never recovered. Another 'interesting" part of the Enron story was J Clifford Baxter, who had agreed to testify against his executive buddies at Enron, but commited 'suicide' two days before, in a strange and very convenient death that has many unexplained details. Very interesting chain of events in the documentary and subsequent happenings. Gotta love them 'Bush buddies,' who were HUGE contributors to his various campaigns.

Bush, shown with his good buddy Ken Lay, part of the Texas energy mafia, (who continually raped the American consumers) who he affectionately called "Kenny-boy'.

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...

Great 'bargains' at the local Sprouts store

where we picked up asparagus and baby back ribs. Carol and I went for the same stuff (serarately, today), cuz it is so good, AND a great price. Had it for dinner tonight. WOW. One of my fav dinners, as the ribs start out in the crock pot, then finish on the grill, with fresh asparagus. (and bread pudding for dessert) I LOVE this time of year...
