My sister, Debi, forwarded this revisionist cartoon to me today via email. Pretty funny, and unfortunately, when I read “progressive” blogs, it is what way too many people believe.

He was talking about Hillary and then he reached up to touch his cheek with the middle finger of his right hand. Was it a deliberate one-finger salute to the Billary? I seriously doubt it. Obama’s not that clueless. However, it does demonstrate a marked lack of experience in public no-nos. This is one issue that truly is a non-issue and a diversion from more important topics. It’s rather funny, though.

This morning there was an earthquake in southern Illinois. I didn’t feel it, but other people in my general area of the country felt it. So the earthquake was the topic of conversation on the radio as I was driving to work. One man called in and said:

“My wife woke me up and said, ‘The bed’s shaking. Were we having sex?”

This is hilarious.  People are falling in droves for Barack Hussein Obama (Oh, I’m so intolerant for including his middle name!) who is inspiring and uplifting, but who doesn’t really say anything of substance.  But, hey!  He makes ‘em feel good.  Yes we can!  So go vote for him.  I wonder if all the little sheep are really paying attention to what he says.  No they don’t care - they’re merely sheep.   Click the link above - this is funny.

Tiara tip to Holly.

Seeing this little Photoshopped jewel reminds me of how Obama is such a charismatic speaker that people get wrapped up in the emotion of his speeches and don’t listen to what he is really saying…or to what he isn’t saying.

I spent my afternoon at a meeting.  The person who was facilitating the discussion was a man (an elementary school principal) who had THE worst toupee I’ve ever seen.  The toupee in the phototo on the left is similar to what he had.  Obvious, miss-matched, should be embarrassing, hilarious.  It actually was almost uncomfortable because you feel so sorry for someone who doesn’t appear to have a clue that he looks so ridiculous.  He just kept talking abou thow wonderful his school is how he is such a wonderful principal.  Really, I’ve rarely seen such a undeservedly confident person.

Unfortunately, we were sitting around a large conference table, and the toupee’ed school principal was sitting next to me.  He was very talkative and, as I said,  quite proud of what a wonderful speaker he is.  In fact, he’s the kind of person who completely monopolizes meetings. So, out of courtesy,  I watched him a good part of the 3 hours that the meeting lasted.   I wonder if he realized that I was studying his horrible toupee most of the time I was looking in his direction.   My thought was that I couldn’t wait to get home so I could write about his bad toupee.  The color was a fairly good match, but it was obvious that his own hair was straight, and the toupee was curly.  In the back, the toupee stuck out away from his shirt collar - making it even more obvious.  At his temples, you could see his real sideburns underneath the toupee.  And the toupee is not new.  He has apparently been wearing the same toupee for years. 

Since I sat close to him, I was able to see the toupee close-up, and I could see how awful it really was.  I guess educators don’t make much money but SURELY he could save enough money to buy a decent toupee.  Many years ago a friend loaned me a wig, and I wore it a couple times - just for the fun of it.  It was hot and felt miserable.  Yet this man wears a toupee every single day.  I can just imagine how uncomfortable that is.

I always get tickled when I hear people say “For all intensive purposes” instead of “for all intents and purposes.”  I was reading another blog this morning (I won’t embarrass the writer by telling which one) that used the phrase “intensive purposes.”  I’m sorry, but when someone uses language so incorrectly,  it’s difficult to pay much attention to the rest of what they’re saying or writing.  “Intensive purposes” really doesn’t make sense in that context.  Do people even THINK about the meaning of what they’re saying or writing?  I dated a guy once who sent out a group email with the phrase “intensive purposes” in it.  Although it made me cringe, I never pointed it out. 

For what it’s worth, folks, the phrase is “FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES.”
