MISSING CAT
His name is Smokey. His partner, The Bandit, was killed by a pack of savage dogs more than a year ago.
Smokey is missing. Been gone all day.
In the vicinity of Boulevard....should you see a dark gray cat of medium build, probably wearing a white flea collar unless he shook it off, contact me at Lucipater@yahoo.com
What worries me the most is that this kitten is a real home body and never wanders off.
Ciao

Karl Malden Dead
Actor Karl Malden, actor, died this day at the age of ninety-seven.
Unlike most in the Hollywoody tradition, he remained married to the same woman for seventy years.
He was a good man, skilled at his profession.

Herman Cain is one of my very personal heroes. Here is his latest message to those of us who belong on his always exciting mailing list
Dear Don,
Hello Intelligent Thinkers, July 1, 2009
The House of Representatives narrowly passed the American Clean Air and Security Act (HR 2454) last Friday. Eight Republicans voted yes on the bill, otherwise, it would have narrowly failed.
The good news is that forty Democrats voted NO on the bill, and it still has to be voted on in the Senate, which is expected to be a tough fight. We will certainly remember those Democrats and the eight Republicans leading up to the November 2010 elections.
HR 2454 would have been more appropriately named "Cap and Tax and Kill and Trade", because it will tax us all on our energy use, kill jobs and trade away many of our freedoms and property rights. If passed, this bill would be one of the largest expansions of federal government since the IRS grew into the intrusive bureaucracy it is today.
And just as no member of Congress read the so-called "stimulus bill", no member of Congress read this 1000-plus page legislation either. In fact, the last 300 page amendment was not shown to Members until 3a.m. the day the vote was taken.
This is irresponsible and insulting to the American people.
This is why we must continue to call, write and email our Senators to help the bill to "narrowly fail" when the Senate vote is taken. Even though the Senate's version of the bill has not been written yet, I am urging you to contact your Senators today and ask them to vote NO on any version of the Cap and Trade bill (also referred to as the American Clean Air and Security Act).
Thanks!
Herman Cain - Head Coach

THE PATRIOT POST
A Tourist walked into a Chinese curio shop in San Francisco. While looking around at the exotic merchandise, he noticed a very lifelike, life-sized, bronze statue of a rat. It had no price tag, but was so incredibly striking the tourist decided he must have it. He took it to the old shop owner and asked, "How much for the bronze rat?"
"Ahhh, you have chosen wisely! It is $12 for the rat, $100 for the story," said the wise old Chinaman. The tourist quickly pulled out twelve dollars. "I'll just take the rat, you can keep the story."
As he walked down the street carrying his bronze rat, the tourist noticed that a few real rats had crawled out of the alleys and sewers and had begun following him down the street. This was a bit disconcerting so he began walking faster.
A couple blocks later he looked behind him and saw to his horror the herd of rats behind him had grown to hundreds, and they began squealing.
Sweating now, the tourist began to trot toward the Bay. Again, after a couple blocks, he looked around only to discover that the rats now numbered in the MILLIONS, and were squealing and coming toward him faster and faster.
Terrified, he ran to the edge of the Bay and threw the bronze rat as far as he could into the Bay.
Amazingly, the millions of rats all jumped into the Bay after the bronze rat, and were all drowned.
The man walked back to the curio shop in Chinatown.
"Ahhh," said the owner, "You have come back for story?"
"No sir," said the man, "I came back to see if you have a bronze Democrat."

Behind The Headlines
A McClatchy online headline blares: "Social Security audit finds dead people getting checks".
Nothing wrong with that. After all, those same people have been voting for years.

Quote Of The Day

From The Georgia Carry Dot Org Newsletter:
"The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers; and will generally, even if these are successful in the first instance, enable the people to resist and triumph over them."
(-- Joseph Story, US Supreme Court Justice and Harvard law professor, Familiar Exposition of the Constitution of the United States (1840))

Macon’s Favorite Radio Personality
according to
The Macon Blatt and Bugle
according to
The Macon Blatt and Bugle
Anybody listening to Chris Krok these days knows he is in high dudgeon over the fact that a recent MACON TELEGRAPH poll omitted the category “Favorite Radio Personality” which has always been heretofore extensive survey.
Mr. Krok is upset because, deep down, he knows he won that pissing contest, or thinks he does, and is urging his listeners to call and email the paper and demand an explanation.
Now the daily in its finite wisdom won’t publish anything that would detract from its very own Charles R and Kenny B radio show running opposite the Krokster twixt 6:00 and 9:00 AM.
Fortunately we have sources deep inside the T’GRAPH, deeper apparently that Krok has. We can now reveal the truth….and nothing but.
So, and this is an exclusive…..READ IT HERE FIRST……. The results of the Favorite Radio Personality according a region-wide poll conducted under the aegis of the local daily is…..
The one, the only……
Drum roll……..
Congrats, Anita....you deserve it.
