Veterans Day: A time to reflect and remember those that served our country

IT MUST BE GETTING LATE...I'M SEEING CIRCLES MOVE!

                     

Insult to Injury: AIG whines about 3rd quarter profits and gets More Money!

The insurance giant AIG has asked for more bailout money after reporting third-quarter losses. This request amounts to admission that the first effort to fund them failed. So how are we going to know this works? We're not. We're just going to have to sit back and wait until they report their fourth quarter status.

I was against the original bailout and I'm against this increased amount. The American people were sold down the river on that supposed financial crisis stop gap measure.

I hear that the Big Three automakers  are also in line to ask Uncle Sam for more sugar to sweeten their losses!

When are the hand-outs going to stop?

Does anybody else feel like we're getting fleeced while the big-wigs get help in hard times?

It's getting harder to find people who want to go into the military

This blog recently discovered just how desperate we are for new recruits to fight the ground war in Iraq and Afghanistan. This ground squirrel is part of a regiment of rodents that are training in the desert area of 29 Palms, California.

 They undergo tough paw-to-paw training                                                                                         

and are said to be crack shots. Their ability to forage in the field means they will be able to travel light in their pursuit of the enemy.

Lakers still undefeated as they hammer Houston Rockets by 29 points!

Kobe Bryant and Pau Gasol ripped through the Rockets defense on route to a rout. They started off 16 points down in the 1st quarter, but quickly turned things around and were leading by a basket at halftime. In the 4th quarter the Lakers took flight with 39 points!

Did I mention I've been a Laker fan since they moved to LA?

Berserk Pumpkin Monster attacks and mutilates neighborhood gourds!

FDA ignores evidence of a threat to nations babies and young children

The FDA has been claiming BPA (a harmful chemical) is not dangerous. But facts have surfaced and the FDA is reluctantly admitting there's problems with the chemical, but they still refuse to ban it!

This is just another case of deceiving the public to keep making money, regardless of the effects! Canada banned it's usage this year. We should be doing the same. CLICK HERE to read AS IT STANDS Sunday column in the Times-Standard.
