TGIF Randomosity

  • image244,000 jobs added last month!  But the unemployment rate went up to 9%.  Hmm… Well, “they” say that the reason the unemployment rate went up because folks got up off the sofa and went and looked for work.
  • Fannie Mae asking for another $8.5 billion.  What’s the definition of insanity?  Isn’t it “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result?”  So, here we have them asking for money again.  I wonder what we’ll do, being insane and all…
  • I don’t get the folks asking for proof that Osama bin Laden is really dead.  I think they got him.  I’m certainly glad they killed him and dumped the body in the sea.  The last thing anyone needed was a lengthy trial where he could have spouted his nonsense.  Or a burial site that gets treated like holy ground.  We did the right thing.  Dead and gone.
  • Talk about your contrarian results, Thor gets good reviews.
  • “The makers of 3D Sex and Zen: Extreme Ecstasy are presenting Singapore with a heavily self-censored release with more than 18 minutes of the completed film cut…”   Hmm, I don’t know why that one got my attention.  You?  “Edge of the bed action.”  Whoa, Nellie.
  • Jacob Lusk booted from American Idol and blames Jimmy Iovine.  Heck, blame the lousy singing.  That was long overdue.  I was amazed Lauren was in the bottom two.  I still think the finale is between Lauren and Scotty.  They seem to have the most talent.  Although, Haley seems to be stepping it up recently.  IMHO, of course.
