It's pretty obvious that the politicians are well aware that there's only about 8 months left until the national elections; either that, or the 3 main media organizations have decided not to report their shenanigans! No huge scandals, no super controversial bills in front of the houses, so we just get a "breather for the blood pressure"!
Despite the cautious proclamations of an increasingly better economy, a 15 year veteran police officer (ex), in Columbus, Ga., decided to rob a bank of $1,000, in order to "enroll" himself in the "Federal Health System". http://tinyurl.com/77uqhnk
And in San Francisco, a rather large naked lady was offended by the fact that John Knight was driving a blue Volvo station wagon! http://tinyurl.com/7zshg66
It seems fairly obvious that we are now fully involved in the "silly season", and I can hardly wait for the first week of November to be gone! The worst part of the next few months will be the frantic phone calls that we will be receiving from the pols who thoughtfully exempted themselves from the "Do Not Call" law they passed, a few years ago. . .
A couple of weeks ago, a friend of mine sent me this link to a band that I've been aware of for a number of years, but had never heard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUMyKcNL-Vs The quartet is from Minneapolis, Minnesota, and formed in 1985, and it just blows me away that they've turned out 8 albums, and aren't better known. They are a good guitar-driven band, that put out some really nice sounds, and actually seem to have something to say. Enjoy; they have a lot of videos up!
