"Orvillecopter" the Quadrotor

My News Limerick:

There once was a stuffed cat quadrotor,

“Orvillecopter” was built to soar,

Killed by a car,

Now a furry flying star,

Will PETA like or totally deplore?

Quote of the Day:

“Curiosity killed the cat, but for a while I was suspect.”

Steven Wright(1955 - )

Story and Commentary:

Dutch artist, Bart Jansen, has created “Orvillecopter”. A quadrotordrone made from his dead cat. “Orvillecopter” is the “Terminator” of the cat taxidermy world. It’s half taxidermy and half remote-controlled Lotus T580. This half cat and half machine were named after Orville Wright of the famous Wright Brothers.

“Orvillecopter may have been killed by a car, but instead of going six feet under he went to the skies. Spending afterlife chasing birds, dogs, cattle, and any other critters his owner chooses for him.

What does PETA think of this? Is this animal cruelty or a true form of love between cat and owner?

Just think, if there is a cat spirit. Is it possible that the spirit will be able to see through the eyes of the deceased?

Probably not, but I do not have a problem with this. I think Bart Jansen found a unique and creative way to memorialize his late friend.

Arby's Urinal Malfunction Makes McDonald's Coffee Burn Look Like Child's Play

My Limerick News:
There once was a man from Colorado,
An Arby’s fan he is no mo,
A urinal malfunction,
While performing a bodily function,
Burned his ‘Willie’ and full of woe!

Famous Quote:
“See, the problem is that God gives men a brain and penis, and only enough blood to run one at a time.”
Robin Williams (1951 - )

The Story and Commentary:
Kenneth DeJoie filed a lawsuit against Arby’s. Why? He claims that while he was doing his business in the urinal, there was a malfunction and a hot “jet of steam” shot out and scalded his genitals.

Of course, he immediately complained to an employee and this was the response, “We have that bathroom problem again,”

DeJoie’s complaint charges that the management knew about the plumbing problem, but failed to do anything about it.

DeJoies wife also joined the suit by claiming that she has suffered a loss of consortium.

All I have to say is this; this suit sure beats the heck out of the McDonald’s coffee burn lawsuit. Speaking from a man’s point of view, I believe Dejoies has one heck of a case and if these allegations are true, he truly deserves reparation.

The Track Super Star!

Meghan Vogel is a track star,
That ended a race as a super star,
Because she rather,
Help another,
Great sportsmanship was more important by far,

Quote of the Day:
“One man practicing sportsmanship is better than a hundred teaching it.”
Knute Rockne (1888 – 1931)

The Story and Commentary:
Meghan Vogel lost the race, in fact, she came in last place, but in everyone’s eyes she was the true “Winner!”

She had earlier won the 1,600-meter-race, but this time she noticed that one of her opponents, Arden McMath, had collapsed. Meghan immediately did something that she knew would “disqualify” her from winning the race; she picked up her opponent and helped her to the finish line.

Not only did she help her to the finish line, but also made sure that she passed the line in front of her.

Her actions greatly inspired the crowd! Everyone cheered and roared with approval of her actions. All attention was on this great act of sportsmanship. The crowd no longer cared about the “winner” of the race or anything else.

Meghan Vogel immediately became the true “winner” and a “Super Star!”

You may ask, “What’s the big deal? Why is this a story at all? Or who cares!”

Well, personally I do believe this is a noteworthy story, just because sportsmanship of this level is so hard to find these days. Most young people today are wrapped into their own little worlds and care only about themselves.

I give a standing ovation to Meghan and want her to have as much recognition as possible. Maybe her story will inspire other young people to think of others the same way she did.

Please pass this story on to a young person(s) that needs inspiration.

The True Federal Deficit!

"The merchants of the world will weep and mourn for her, for there is no one left to buy their goods." Revelation 18:11

The 'state' of our economy is dismally bad,

Learning the truth makes you really mad,

What Congress tells us,
Doesn't fully address,
Trillions that businesses would have to add,

"There are 10^11 stars in the galaxy. That used to be a huge number. But it's only a hundred billion. It's less than the national deficit! We used to call them astronomical numbers. Now we should call them economical numbers."
Richard Feynman (1918 - 1988)

Did you know that the official federal deficit numbers that Congress tells us leaves out something that would be illegal for any business in the United States?

The difference between Congress and businesses is that Congress does not have to operate under GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). Under these rules, businesses must report the cost of promised retirement benefits. This is also true for states and local governments, but not for Congress.

This graph from USA TODAY shows the actual federal deficit if Congress had to follow the same rules as "everyone else." In 2011, Congress reported a federal deficit of 1.3 Trillion, but the real number should of been 5 Trillion. That is a difference of 3.7 Trillion dollars.

USA TODAY reported, "Liabilities for Social Security, Medicare and other retirement programs rose by $3.7 trillion in 2011, but the amount was not registered on the government's books."

Below are some [block quotes] from USA TODAY:

• Social Security had the biggest financial slide. The government would need $22.2 trillion today, set aside and earning interest, to cover benefits promised to current workers and retirees beyond what taxes will cover. That's $9.5 trillion more than was needed in 2004.
• Deficits from 2004 to 2011 would be six times the official total of $5.6 trillion reported.




• Federal debt and retiree commitments equal $561,254 per household. By contrast, an average household owes a combined $116,057 for mortgages, car loans and other debts.

How are we, as a nation, going to solve this problem? We have got to recycle the idiots in Washington and elect true conservatives. I am not talking about another Bush or people like a majority of "so called" conservative we have in office now. We need "grass-roots" Tea Party Patriots elected and go in and "clean house." If this is not done soon, I truly believe this country "as we know it" is over.

Did you know that if we paid $1 a second on our deficit it would take over 480,000 years to pay off the existing debt we have right now! How much more can we take before our economy totally collapses. I do not think it is much longer. Please, Lord help us!

Jack White Defends Capitalism

"And if you lend money only to those who can repay you, what good is that? Even sinners will lend to their own kind for a full return." Luke 6:34

Have you heard about this popular rock star?

Compared to others, he is quite bizarre,

Defending Capitalism,

Not the norm radicalism,

As fluent with economics as a guitar!

"At present the peace of the world has been preserved, not by statesmen, but by capitalist."

Benjamin Disraeli (1804 - 1881)

It is good to see a rock star with a level head on his shoulders. Most musicians put down businesses and profits, but not Jack White of White Stripes, he actually defends capitalism. That is what I call a 'breath of fresh air', because it is quite rare.

Recently, White expressed his frustrations with Third Man Records because they put out a limited print of records and sold them for too low of a price. Dozens of the low-priced records were bought in bulk and "flipped" on eBay for hundreds of dollars.

Forbes recently said this:

"Third Man Records, puts out limited prints of records in order to meet customer demand 'to be involved in collecting rare and interesting vinyl.' There is a problem with this though. If you make something rare and valuable, the market price will be high."

"But White realized that 1)if customers want rare and valuable albums they will be expensive, 2)the market price will be reached no matter what they sell them for initially, and 3) if someone is going to profit it might as well be the creators,".

White decided to let the market demand dictate what people would pay for the records through auctions. He found out that people were willing to pay up to $300 for a "rare" vinyl.

After White started doing this, people complained that the auctions were "exploitative", but White defended his capitalist approach by saying this:

"We sell a Wanda Jackson split record for 10 bucks, the eBay flipper turns around and sells it for 300... If 300 is what it's worth, then why doesn't Third Man Records sell it for 300? If we sell them for more, the artist gets more, the flipper gets nothing. We're not in the business of making flippers a living. We're in the business of giving fans what they want... Make no mistake, we could make twenty thousand split color whatever for you, and they'll be worth 20 bucks, and you'll pay 20 bucks for them, and you'll never talk about them, desire them, hunt to find them, etc. why should eBay flippers, who are not real fans, dictate the price, make all the profit (taken from the artist and the label) and take the records out of the hands of real fans. There's a guy who waits in a black SUV down the block from Third Man who hires homeless people to go buy him tri-colors when they are on sale. Doesn't even get out of his car. Should he be charged ten bucks or two hundred? Don't be spoiled, don't insult people who are trying to give you what you want... Don't get mad at Third Man for giving you exactly what you've asked for, and seriously stop all of the whining, because what you communicate to us is that all of the trouble we go to isn't worth it because nothing we do will make you happy."

Why anyone in Hollywood or Show Businesses is against capitalism is beyond my understanding. If it wasn't for capitalism, none of them would be the rich people that they are today. I am starting to think the H in Hollywood stands for Hypocrisy!

Please give me your feedback!

A Dangerous Islamic Alliance

My News Limerick:
Farrakhan & the New Black Panther's Chairman,
Forged an alliance with the leader of Iran,
An Islamic pact,
That is nuclear backed,
Worst nightmare for any Israeli fan!

Famous Quote of the Day:
"Yes, I have cherished my "demagogue" role. I know that societies often have killed the people who have helped to change those societies. And if I can die having bought any light, having exposed any meaningful truth that will help to destroy the racist cancer that is malignant in the body of America - then, all of the credit is due to Allah. Only the mistakes have been mine."
Malcom X (1964), The Autobiography of Malcom X

My Commentary:
Racism cannot be combated by racism. I just do not "get it!" People such as Malik Zulu Shabazz, Farrakhan, and the late Malcom X, whom they look up to, primary beef was against racism against blacks in America, but they themselves are more racist than most of those they openly hate. The racism is not just against whites or the KKK, etc. Because of their Islamic beliefs, another primary target is Israel and not at all ashamed to say so.

Recently Shabazz discussed a frightening alliance between The Nation of Islam, the New Black Panthers, and the Iranian regime leader, Ahmadinejad, whom possesses nuclear capabilities.  The meeting took place on September 27th, 2010 in New York on top of a Manhattan Rooftop with another 50 radical Imams in attendance. Details of this meeting were never publicly revealed until a recent Black Panther Radio message by Shabazz on Saturday.

Following, is some dialogue from the broadcast:

• Envisions the "glory" of "paroling on the Israeli embassy with a hundred New Black Panthers" fighting for Palestine.
• Fighting white people is an "international struggle against a common enemy."
• Whites are trying to "divide the non-white" population against each other.
• Because "half of Africa" was involved in slavery "we say Africa owes us reparations, too."
• Black radicals should seek "alliances that are possible right now with people who got solid track records of being against this beast [white people]."
• Shabazz "stands on solid ideological ground" with "His Excellency, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad."
• "Mahmoud Ahmadinejad" understands "the dynamics and the politics of world revolution."
• Shabazz discussed "bringing natural gas and oil and other reparations into the black nation, and other things - unmentionable" with Ahmadinejad.
• There were "fifty Imams in the meeting" and "Minister Farrakhan is sitting in the first seat in the front."

• There are "just as many Arabs who hate this white man as we do" and the Black Panthers should ally themselves with radical Islam.

How many racist statements can you find? I am so very tired of the bigotry within these groups. How can you preach against the racism of African Americans and be an extreme racist yourself.

These groups blame whites and the Jews for everything, but refuse to mention the most destructive element blacks are dealing with on a daily basis. By far, the most destructive force within the black community is found within itself. Black on black crimes, to include murders, is 2 to 3 times more likely than White on black crimes. Everyday black communities are tearing themselves apart from the inside out and all these groups can do is blame the white man and the Jews.

Of course, these groups will say that their situation is the fault of the whites. They are repressed and oppressed. Yes, they have been repressed in the past, but this country has come along way since the 60s equal rights with Dr. King.

President Obama is living proof that opportunities are available for anyone who is willing to work hard to achieve their goals. Let us stop making excuses and find productive positive ways to change the extreme racism that exists within our country on all sides of the fence.

Like I said earlier, "Racism cannot be combated by racism."

Racism can only be defeated through love and understanding of each other's differences. "Stop the Hate!" and "Start the Love!"

Rev. Wright Bribed to Keep Quiet!

My News Limerick:

Have you heard the new interview from Rev. Wright,

Has a box the liberals want to keep out of sight,

Was bribed by Obama,

A best selling drama,

$150,000 to keep him quiet!

Quote of the Day:

"Men are more often bribed by their loyalties and ambitions than by money."

Robert Jackson

My Commentary:

OK, I agree with you! Many are very tired of hearing about Rev. Wright, but this story is different because he is finally telling the truth! I think Obama's throwing him under the bus has finally got to him and he wants everyone to know how Obama tried to "shut him up!"

I would first like to thank Edward Klein. Somehow he convinced Rev. Wright to sit down for a three hour taped interview, which he used in his new book the 'The Amateur', an unauthorized biography of President Barack Obama. This book makes some startling claims from reliable sources. He also spoke to contacts that witnessed  former president Bill Clinton calling Obama an "amateur" and after a secret poll that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton could beat Obama in the Democratic Presidential Election tried to urge her to run against Obama in the 2012 presidential election.

Everyday, more and more truths are being exposed about Obama. Everyday, Americans are learning more and more about the  most corrupt administration in America's history. Obama will do whatever is most "convenient". From shutting up political nightmares such as Rev. Wright to the financial destruction of our country, it does not matter as long as his Communist Marxist objectives are met.

During the interview, Rev. Wright talks about numerous startling subjects about Barack and Michelle, but most interesting by far was the bribery attempt by Obama. Then Senator Obama met privately in Rev. Wright's home and Wright claims that he has an email from one of Obama's closest advisers offering $150,000 if he keeps quiet. Wright claims that proof of this is kept in a secret box and everytime he sees the box, it brings back the memories of the bribery. How is this story not "headlines" for every mainstream news outlet. Except for Fox News and a few others, this story is getting the runaround from the liberal mainstream.

It does not matter, Americans are not "Idiots." The liberal media can try to hide the truth and avoid these facts all they want. Americans are very quickly starting to see the truth. Many Americans will be shocked to learn that "Hope and Change" did in fact come to America.

If was just in the form of "Marxism and Communism" and the destruction of the America we all know and love!
