This morning I ventured into that “proto type” athlete room at EFC this morning.  Those funny looking gadgets are actually torture devices.  I suspect I will feel better after a few days and a bottle of Advil – I have to say it was a great workout.  All you have to do is jump around and contort into funny positions constantly for about 30 minutes.  Give it a try.

Last night, just after posting the no-news, news report, two tragedies occurred.  I heard a flailing and buzzing commotion behind me on the patio and discovered a little bee in the throes of death.  An autopsy revealed an acute case of pollen poisoning, very common this time of year in the South.  Then, I picked up my cigar for a puff.  In Cigar Etiquette I warned of the dangers of hot ash falling on clothing items.  A worse problem is when a large chuck of still-burning cigar ember fell on my leg.  It happened to me.  At first I assumed it was a spark and would burn out.  In fact, it kept burning and resulted in a small second-degree burn.  Sadly, it’s too small to claim a cool injury like a gun shot wound.  Sad…

The news:

Thirty something current and former Atlanta City “educators” have been indicted in one of the largest cheating ordeals in American history (not taught in Atlanta, btw).  This is something else to consider when deciding if you really want your children attending government schools.

The reactionary stupidity of gun control marches on.  In Connecticut a bill has been introduced which would severely assault the Second Amendment.  The State would have the ability to control who has guns and what kind of guns they could have.  None of this will in any way prevent another Newtown style school shooting rather, more innocent citizens will be victimized.  Expect massive abuse under this proposed law; expect it to pass also.  A law has passed in Nelson, Georgia which requires mandatory gun ownership in every home within the city limits.  Given that it’s Nelson, I doubt there will be a compliance problem.  Both of these laws represent tyranny (of opposing types) and should be shunned.

More despicable laws we can soon expect to see nationwide are those which classify more and more people as psychotic so as to deprive them of the ability to defend themselves and mandatory insurance on firearms.  The laws are, of course, endorsed by the criminals in the medical and insurance communities. 

Those drums are getting loud in and around North Korea.  Buy some military-industrial complex stock now.

Samoa Air is the first airline to charge fatties extra for flying.  This should be an added incentive to join my fitness revolution.  Samoa is home to some right heavy folks.

The ever more impressive Pope Francis has announced he will investigate Vatican bureaucracy and the Church bank for abuses.  Can I get an Amen!?

A list has surfaced of 132 wealthy businesses and individuals got an early warning about the Great Cypriotic Bank Robbery and safely removed their funds from local banks in February and early March.  This story gets better (worse) every day.  It is said that, on or off the list, was the President of Cyprus, Nicos Anastasiades, (hopefully enjoying his last term).  Can I predict corpo-government crime, or what?

That is all…..
