Saw 'The Hansen Files', on Dateline

last night and don't know if they MEANT it to be stupid/ironic, but it really was. First they showed a squad of over 100 cops/soldiers/lawmen, with helicopters and ATV's, on a coordinated raid against 'Mexican Cartel Members', who were in actuality, a couple of illegal immigrant Mexican farmers who were growing pot in the mountains of Utah. The 2 illegals escaped. Then, they did the same thing again, a few days later,with the same small army, and again, the growers escaped. How much time and money was spent here? Then, the second half of the show was about teens (and others) getting sick and dying, from smoking 'Spice', a synthetic, but legal form of pot. Anyone else see anything really stupid here? Recent polls show over half the American public thinks pot should be legalized, BUT, the legal system (cops and lawyers) get so much revenue that it just doesn't happen, SO, you get the stupid 'Dateline' shows like we had last night, and billions of dollars flow to criminals and other countries. Unbeleivable...

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...
