One Way to Read It

"Body Odor" was first coined in 1933 by the makers of Lifebuoy soap. People have always smelled, but a fear of our own scent was thrust upon us by corporations. But I wondered if maybe some people had body odor that didn't stink, but rather smelled pleasant. I remember reading that Alexander the Great had yummy B.O. I haven't showered today. So body odor has come to mind. But I think I smell good. Not a cologne or deodorant good, but sweet, a scent that my own body produces, or more likely, a scent that the bacteria on my body produces. Someone should make a bacteria-based deodorant. The microbes would eat your sweat and dead skin, and emit cologne or perfume. The only problems I could see: The bacteria gets out of control and starts eating our skin. The bacteria causes explosive diarrhea when eaten. The bacteria produces too much scent, and makes you smell like a prostitute. The bacteria scares people, so they don't buy it. We may need only apply it once. I...

Here's a one minute recap: Don't miss the V.P. debate this Thursday night. And for more awful news Liberal comedian Bill Maher calls Levi Johnstone, Bristol's boyfriend, America's #1 political prisoner .

These excerpts are from CBS News Russia Is Our Neighbor Couric : You've cited Alaska's proximity to Russia as part of your foreign policy experience. What did you mean by that? Sarah Palin : That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and, on our other side, the land-boundary that we have with Canada. It's funny that a comment like that was kinda made to … I don't know, you know … reporters. Couric : Mocked? Palin : Yeah, mocked, I guess that's the word, yeah. Couric : Well, explain to me why that enhances your foreign-policy credentials. Palin : Well, it certainly does, because our, our next-door neighbors are foreign countries, there in the state that I am the executive of. And there… Couric : Have you ever been involved in any negotiations, for example, with the Russians? Palin : We have trade missions back and forth, we do. It's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia. As Putin rears his...

Read about the $700 billion loan to Wall Street that President Bush and Treasury Secretary Paulson want to push through. Then crap your pants, and read this: "Wall Street owns the country. It is no longer a government of the people, by the people, and for the people, but a government of Wall Street, by Wall Street, and for Wall Street. . . There are half a million looking for work. . . We want money, land and transportation . We want the abolition of the National Banks, and we want the power to make loans direct from the government. We want the accursed foreclosure system wiped out . . . We will stand by our homes and stay by our firesides by force if necessary, and we will not pay our debts to the loan-shark companies until the Government pays its debts to us." (emphasis added) I found many similarities between the current crisis, and this speech GIVEN IN 1890 by Mary Ellen Lease in Topeka, Kansas. Let's not rush through a fix for this crisis. Let's not put ...

We talked politics yesterday. 1 hardcore Republican, 1 hardcore Democrat, and 4 passionate unaffilates. There was yelling, blood, one guy tore his shirt in half, babies cried. Somewhere a fairy died. The economy keeps coming up. And for some reason, everyone thinks the President is in charge of it. I think even the President thinks he's in charge of it, seeing he wants to give $700 billion to bailout his rich buddies. But the President has as much control over the economy as he has over the weather. Anciently, kings were expected to bring down the rain, so that crops would grow and all would prosper. The king claimed divine authority, so if it didn't rain, his authority came to be doubted, and if it got bad enough, he would soon be dethroned and deheaded. Sacral kings were mostly gone by the year 600 BC, the same year Lehi left Jerusalem. But the superstition lives on. We believe that the President has some mystical connection with the business transactions and monetar...

Getting to know your V.P. candidates. Sarah Palin The amiable, attractive, hockey-mom has won our hearts. Unlike the semi-liberal McCain, Palin sticks to Republican doctrine with the same unblinking faith of President Bush. My in-laws, who hesitated to vote McCain, breathed relief when Palin was chosen, and will now surely vote for McCain because of a woman they know nothing about. That's charisma. I heard some Republican zealot say that V.P. candidate Sarah Palin has foreign policy experience because Alaska is geographically close to Russia, you can even see Russia from parts of Alaska! Later I heard Sarah herself say it . And that's not just a joke they say in Alaska, she was being serious. I love this logic. Because I have seen a doctor, I am a medical expert. Because I have seen a plane, I'm a pilot. It's like a superpower. Even better, I attend a university, so I have seen many professors, and am therefore an expert in almost every field. Honorary degree, please, ...

I forgot to mention that Chaffetz demanded an apology from those who told him that concentration camps are wrong. "Where these guys are overstepping the line is saying that it has anything to do with ethnicity. They absolutely should apologize for that. That has never been my position, and it is terribly unfair and inaccurate," Chaffetz said. "If you're breaking the law and you're a fugitive, I want to go after you and put you in jail. I don't care if you're from Russia, Japan or Guatemala, it doesn't matter to me. " [emphasis added] Before my apology, a rebuttal. Illegal immigrant means Latino. Those with Border Anxiety Disorder don't worry about Russian or Japanese, immigrants; they worry about Spics and Latinos. 81 % of illegal immigrants come from Latin America. The concentration camps would be disproportionately Latino regardless of Chaffetz's proclaimed egalitarianism. Now an apology. "I apologize Mr. Chaffetz. Your co...

I hope you have your papers. Jason Chaffetz is running for Congress in Utah's third district . He will be one of three congressmen who represent Utah. He wants to build concentration camps in Utah . Undocumented Latinos will be housed in ragged tents behind a cage of barbed wire. He must be stopped. On November 4th, vote Bennion Spencer . Utah already made this mistake once, with the Japanese during WWII. We don't need to make it again.
