- Iron Mike Tyson won his first World Title 25 years ago last night. My dad and I used to watch all his fights together. I thought the guy was unreal and as bad-ass a boxer as I ever saw fight. He had as much power, and as much desire, as any athlete I had ever seen since Secretariat.
- Desiree Washington, the rape victim did not end Tyson's career. Robin Givens and Don King did.
- I met Tyson in a restaraunt wiht a mutual friend one night in LA, during his prime. He had an entourage with him, and was a very nice guy. Ask me all kinds of questions about Texas, and our cowboy way of life. He was actually very intelligent.
- Several companies are reporting huge booms in the sale of "survival gear" and "survival kits". HUGE booms, like biz being 50 times higher than average.
- The shitstorm in Egypt right now is a lesson in being "careful what you wish for". They gotta mess over yonder.
- I saw a graph on the news today of all of the countries surrounding Israel, comparing Allies of the US and Israel to Enemies, while Bush was in office vs. Obama in office. VERY SCARY. Bush might not have been so dumb after all.
- A protesting atheist group threw a fit over a cross hanging on the front of a Christian Chapel Tent in a miltary barracks area in Afghanistan. The US Army made the chaplin take the cross down. The US Defense Dept said it was offensive.

- The landlord, in Apopka, Florida, who ran his forklift thru the trailer house over and over and over and over because he could not get a dead-beat renter to leave is my new hero. He leveled the trailer house...... with 6 people still inside.

- 75% of ALL of Obama's judicial nominees are not qualified according to the American Bar Association.
- How about the Michigan State University proff that is taking and posing in nude photos with his students?
- Jimmy Fallon's Late Night Band played "Lyin Ass Bitch" as Michelle Bachmann walked out to make her appearance on his show. Liberal pissheads. NBC should fire every last person on the show.
- Having Michelle Obama grand marshall last weekend's Nascar race is a joke.
- The Obama's hosting a "Country Music Day" at the White House is a joke. I can just hear the two little Obama girls now..." Mommy, why are all these white people singing?, We thought Beyonce and Jay Z were coming over again tonight."
- A Greyhound bus driver abandoned her bus and passengers at a Charleston Missouri truck stop. I am amazed this does not happen every day.
- There are 35,616 "forced" abortions in China every single day.
- A "transgender" FAKE doctor injects several women in Florida with cement and Fix-a-Flat? To make their asses look bigger? And they paid her?

- Why does the FDIC and the US Dept of Treasury keep making large banks "stress test" using 15% unemployment, a 5600 point Dow Jones Average, and a completely, financially collapsed Europe and Middle East as their economic environment criteria?
- Maybe that is why survival kits are selling at record numbers... Lots of folks thinking off the radar.

- Didn't Martha Stewart do a little time for the same thing?

- At least two of them have to be full of shit.
- Reminds me of the line form the Dire Staits song..."Two men say they Jesus, one of them must be wrong".
- Michelle Obama serving as Grand Marshall of a Nascar race may be the beginning of the end.
