Only In Florida

A 6,000 pound statue held for ransom...

''Big John'' Kidnapped From Cape Coral

Florida is a wild place to live.

High Travel

Caught this on Lucianne.com and I would invite you to compare and contrast with Obama's Big Black Magical Bus Tour:

Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Queen of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica, Barbados, the Bahamas, Grenada, Papua New Guinea, The Solomon Islands, Tuvalu, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Antigua and Barbuda, Belize and St Kitts and Nevis. Head of the Commonwealth, Supreme Governor of the Church of England, Duke of Normandy, Duke of Lancaster, Lord of Mann and Paramount Chief of Fiji.

This is the way she travels.

A-hem.

No End To The Spend

Michelle’s Separate Travel Costs Taxpayers Thousands

Oh God, when will the mooching end?

November 2012... I hope.

Big American Boo Boo

Finally, someone is stating the obvious:

The Anti-American President

It's no accident. Nobody can be this stupid.

Postcard To White House

GOP To Obama: Wish You Were Here

The Republican National Committee has set up a site at www.obamagetaway.com where visitors can choose a snarky postcard with a message criticizing the president’s island escape and e-mail it to the White House.

I sent one...

I wished Obama happy job hunting come November 2012.

Post Turtle Obama

This one gave me a chuckle: "Is Barak Obama a "Post Turtle?"

One day an old cowboy was out ridin' fence and he saw a turtle balanced on top of a fence post. When he got back to the bunkhouse he told the other fellas that he saw a "post turtle".

They all asked, "What the hell is a 'post Turtle'?"

He said, it was a turtle settin' on top of a post! He then went on to explain that "you know it didn't get up there by itself, it doesn't belong there, it doesn't know what to do while it's up there and you just wonder what kind of dang fool put it up there to begin with!" :-)

Joe, Say It Ain't So

Joe Scarborough's Brutally Honest Take On Michele Bachmann: She Is A Joke

Careful, Joe. Some might call you a joke. Remember this...

A Death In The Congressman's Office: Does Anybody In The Press Care About Lori Klausutis?

If it weren't for RINOs, conservatives wouldn't need enemies.

Never Olympian

Hurt: Fallen Off Olympus, Obama Stammers

I never fell for the media's Obama swoon. You have to be impressive to impress.

Right Is Right

Facts? We Don't Need No Stinkin' Facts

This is why I'm a conservative.

Deeply Disturbing

Giant Statue Sighting In Hamburg: A "Mermaid" Sculpture Rises In Germany's Alster Lake

Am I the only one who finds this creepy?

Disapointing Act

Satirical Mints Poking Fun At Obama Pulled From University Of Tennessee Bookstore

It was perfectly fine to peddle merchandise poking fun at George Bush though. Free speech and all that...

Yeah.

Not so for followers of D'uh Won... they're very easily outraged.

Economic Meltdown Humor

Dilbert

Now that the debt ceiling debate is over, fears of an economic meltdown are over and, thankfully, Obama has set his laser beam focus on jobs, jobs, jobs.

Whew!

Not Marvelous

New Spiderman Swinging Into Comic Book Shops Following Death Of Peter Parker

OK, Spiderman was only killed off in the “Ultimates” imprint of Marvel comics... which translates into the not-so-good line, but I still find it a ridiculous move.

Is there nothing the politically correct movement can't ruin?

Rare Cat Blog Saturday

For this rare Cat Blog Saturday...

... this poor kitten who is having trouble being adopted because of her Hitler-like markings.

Hitler Cat Overlooked Because Of Markings

Oh, comon, I think that conclusion is a load of rubbish. I'd adopt this kitten in a minute if she weren't in the UK. She's adorable.

Cat Blog Friday

For this Cat Blog Friday...

... my idea of a cat's response to the evil human who did this to an innocent cat...

Sniper Shot Cat On Family's Porch

Have an otherwise happy Friday, everybody.

Sorry End

Contrary to popular belief, the starship Enterprise's shuttlecraft, the Galileo, did not burn up in re-entry to Taurus II...

It ended up in this Los Angeles parking lot looking like a sad heap of junk.

*sigh*

Is the Partridge Family bus next?

Bad Bulb

This CFL Bulb Almost Burned My House Down

How many more of these examples do we need before we end this travesty?

Whole Phony?

You're A Faux Hippy Wal-Mart: Whole Foods Market Worker Quits In Epic Resignation Email

This was a hoot to read. The author is divulging what many of us already suspected.

Me, I don't shop at Whole Foods and I don't buy 'organic' because I think it's a scam, but for all those others who do, go for it.

I do shop at Wal-Mart and have no problem doing so for many items. I appreciate the money I save.

A free market works best when it's allowed to work freely. The Whole Foods CEO, who is self-made and a free market advocate, should approve of that.

Amy Winehouse 1983- 2011

Amy Winehouse, 27, Found Dead At Her London Flat

Sadly, there will no more sultry songs from Ms. Winehouse. Many saw this coming, but not this soon.

RIP.

Busy In Bali

Weiner In Therapy; Says Hard Part Will Be Convincing Hillary Clinton He's Recovered

Hillary is all about forgiveness.

BTW is she in Bali or Baleen?

No Privilege For You

Robin of Berkeley posts another insightful column at the American Thinker:

Black Privilege

Do you feel guilty?

I don't.

Where's Casey?

Casey Anthony Disguises

Kasey Kardashian... this one cracks me up, especially because of the clever use of facial hair ;-)

Osama bin Duct Tape is a funny second.

Alyssa Milano... watch your back!

Soccer Family

Obama Tweets Apology To USWNT

I would fire the person who staged this united family fun photo...

You couldn't find some shoes? Or some smiles?

Sheesh.

Cat Blog Friday

For this Cat Blog Friday...

... a wizard cat dressed for the midnight premiere of "Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows- Part 2". My daughters and I were in attendance and received 3-D glasses shaped like Harry Potter's.

*squee*

The theater lobby looked like the halls of Hogwarts with all the costumes and fun was had by all, young and old.

Happy *yawn* Friday, everybody!

Don't Call My Bluff?

"This May Bring My Presidency Down But I Will Not Yield": Obama Walks Out Of Debt Talks Warning GOP 'Don't Call My Bluff'

Does this man even listen to his own words?

Phenom Golfer

Six Year Old Girl Makes Improbable Hole In One

Wow!

Bush Hat Tip

A Hat Tip For Bush

At least the South Sudanese know whom to thank for their independence. Unlike Obama, who for once, isn't putting the blame on Bush.

Go Girl!

Swedish Woman Beats Up Groper - Goes Free

Lisbeth Salander lives!

Happy Friday, everybody.

Colorful Characters

Colorful Character Of Jose Baez, Casey Anthony Defense Attorney

Yeah, it's not a picture of Jose Baez, but this expression of Judge Belvin Perry cracked me up and I wanted to include it.

Back to Baez...

I know he's the legal man of the hour right now, but I frequently complained about his sleazy hijinks during the trial. I wouldn't refer to his history as "colorful", but in one fell swoop, he has catapulted himself into Johnny Cochran territory.

And defense attorney Cheney Mason was caught flipping off the media during their celebration

Our legal system at work.

*sigh*

Independence Day Weekend

This eagle's look is the perfect illustration of the spirit of the Founders of our exceptional country... Don't mess with our freedom and we'll get along.

Keep it in your hearts while you celebrate with your families this weekend.

Wishing you all a safe and happy Fourth!
