What the Candidates Spend Money on 5-31-2008

Someone smart (like MS. BOB) help me get this.  Those guys in Florida and Michigan are all mad because the DNC says they broke the rules and now they can’t vote.  Well, that seems right.  I mean yesterday I went to my local polling place and said “Hey, I want to vote for the President.”  and they said “No no it’s not time yet” and I said “But what if I lived in Tampa or Saginaw?” and they said “Well, you still couldn’t vote yet”  and I said ‘I think I should vote and it should be counted and if you won’t let me I’ll get all mad and go to the newspaper.”  So then they started looking at me funny and said “Go away”  Well, okay so how come those guys can vote early and know the rules and now say “Hey–That’s not fair!”  And then the goofy Democrats are saying “We’ll teach you a lesson we’ll let you come to our convention (party) but you only get 1/2 a vote.”  THEY BROKE THE RULES–what good are rules if you say “Okay you broke the rules, but it doesn’t matter too much”  Before you know it they’ll have primaries two years in advance.  And then what about Her Royal Hillary who wants these votes cause she won cause Obama who played by the rules and withdrew his name so she won both states saying give me those votes?  I think she’s a big fat cheater.  I’m going to tag this post “Hillary Big Fat Cheater”

I think Her Royal Hillary is losing because she’s worried about the wrong stuff.  Spending by candidate looks like this

Domino’s Pizza   Hillary  $1951   Obama   $1774; Starbuck’s  Hillary  $3210   Obama  $1580   Einstein Bagels   Hillary  $2493  Obama   $738  Dunkin’ Donuts  Hillary  $3210   Obama  $0  So see Hillary is spending all her money on junk food (learned it from Bill except he ate good donuts Krispy Kream)  I think this is a good indicator of priorities.  And what’s up with the fancy shmantzy coffee and bagels.  I think they should get some Folger’s and Kroger bagels.  That would show fiscal responsibility and a common man touch–but nooooo they gotta have this high on the hogs elitist stuff.  I am good with the Domino’s pizza.  You can get some good deals if you use coupons.

Okay this is sort of intresting.  Some proffesor down in Louisianna has discovered that alligator blood is good, and that it has antibodies in it that kill off bad bacteria, and that maybe, if you got an alligator blood transfusion you wouldn’t get so sick or something, or maybe if they isolate that stuff they could make some good drugs.  He says that alligators live in an environment that has lots of germs and have developed blood to deal with it and that this is an important discovery.  Once when I was a kid we went to the alligator farm in Hot Springs Arkansas.  All those alligators did was lay around.  It was pretty boring so I started throwing pennies at the alligators to try and get them to move, but then my Dad got mad at me and made me stop, so the alligators just sat there, so then I wanted to go, but we had paid good money to see the lazy alligators so I had to watch them not move for another twenty minutes.

Finally we shot this rocket up to Mars to see if there is any ice.  Everyone was all excited because it landed and didn’t crash.  Now the world is up to 50% success rate landing on Mars.  So far they had a few minor problems (radio contact and a short circuit) but everyone says this was a good shot.  And they think maybe the thrusters blew away some soil and uncovered some ice but they don’t know until they dig around a bit, and then the thing is going to put what it digs up inside itself and they’ll heat it up and see if it melts and then it will not be ice anymore and this matters a lot because NASA says so.  I think they have a lot of global cooling on Mars.  In other space news the shuttles goes up today to take a Russian made pump for the toilet to the space station.  They had to fly it in from Moscow because the toilet broke up there.  I don’t know why I think this is funny but somehow it seems crazy to fly a pump  from Moscow to Florida and put it on the shuttle to fly it to the space station for a broken toilet.  What’s so special about this pump?  If the Russian toilet pump is so fragile how about getting one from somewhere else?  I have some pumps on my boat that work real good.  Where do they pump stuff? Into a tank? Outside?

  1. Carla,
    Sounds like you’ve been doing some serious thinking. Funny how memories like the Alligator Farm here in Hot Springs, Ark., can come back to your memory.

    After our first visit to Hot Springs six years ago, we couldn’t get the city off our minds, either. Three months later, hubby and I moved here, and haven’t regretted it one minute.

    Named as the No. 1 place in America to retire by geographer Warren Bland , Hot Springs was confirmed as a top retirement destination on a recent Today Show segment by realtor Barbara Corcoran.

    I gotta admit, Hot Springs is a pretty cool place to live, even for those of us who aren’t yet retired.
