The Elite Eight

Milli Vanilli, Madonna, Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears, Ashlee Simpson... say hello to the new team of future no-talents who only get by on a 'look' instead of musical talent. American Idol is back again with another week of excruciating music.

Ever wonder why piracy is as high as it has ever been? Could it be because the people have decided to actually 'pay for what they get'? I have less contempt for anyone who works in the mortgage or financial industry than American Idol, and that is saying A LOT.

Well, let's see what teenage girls will buy in four months... The American Idol Top 8

Oh, the year they were born... this will be fun...




Danny Gokey: What a cop-out... singing a 50 year-old song that was re-done by a guy in 1980. He probably sang this song at every Young Life camp. "Stand by me" when I detonate my bomb, I will take my life to make sure this pompous twat doesn't make a dime. I bet your God didn't see that coming.





Kris Allen: What's wrong with taxi cab drivers? Anoop would take offense to that. That guitar is not plugged into anything. This is a prime example of a no-talent hack who has a look, so he will stay on the show. When a trumpet has to drown out his singing, you know he is bad. All Paula wants to do is 'Dance' between his sheets.





Lil Rounds: What's talent 'got to do with it'? If you wanna sing Tina like Tina, you are going to fail. Like the high-heels. They are hiding the badadonkadonk. That is the best asset on her. Forgettable. I already forgot. Who am I writing about? The black one, yeah. I mean, the one in the black dress. Paula's rambling...that's all I remember.





Anoop: First Kumar commits suicide on House (if I spoiled the plot twist for you, sorry), now Anoop is up for possible elimination on American Idol. I guess FOX is getting rid of all the Middle Easterners, except for terrorists on 24... Are we nearing mid-term elections? Anoop is being political... did he take a job in the Obama Administration? What is with the shirt, Anoop? Those 'true colors' scream, "Jai Ho"! He may survive another week.





Scott: I'm glad he gave up on the whole train conductor thing. But why did he choose singing? His left eye is looking obscenely to the left. Put some glasses on him and sit him at a piano, damn it! He's going to hit his face on the microphone if he doesn't stop hopping around like that. 'The Search is Over', we have our singer who is going home tomorrow.





Allison: Bonnie Raitt, good choice. Is every song she sing involve laying down with someone? How old's she? She 'can't make' America love her, but America should. I will be depressed when she goes.





Matt: Guess the pimple is still there, now he has his hat covering his second forehead. Is that 'part time' Justin Timberlake? Trying to sound like Stevie, but he can't. Must be short on time, the judges breezed through it. Get the show over, Fringe is coming on!





Adam: He loved playing 'dress-up' as a child? No shit! He is dressing up like a male nowadays. 'I find it hard to take' watching this show every week. He is DIVAx2 tonight. All hail Adam! He probably asks for a bowl of green M&Ms and his favorite incense stick be lit before he enters the building.


There were a few performances I didn't want to slit my wrists over this week. Could I be beginning to like some of these singers? Am I looking forward to next weeks songs? Am I rushing to my computer to downloads these songs to put on my Sirius Stilleto 2? NO

Who will win? Adam

Who should win? Allison

Who will go? Scott

why don't ours look like theirs?!

i never know if it's gonna be 80 degrees or snow when i'm back home in the states. the weather forecasters are BOOOOORING! now, if they looked like these latina and european forecasters, i'm SURE more people would know when to take their umbrellas with them to work.

Z, Don't Fly To This Airport

Prague's Franz Kafka International Named World's Most Alienating Airport

A New Albumn Release...

From the band The G-20's featuring Hu Jintao and the Global Regulators.



Albumn Title: "Where'd D Kizash Go?"

Oh, No, Not Again!

Time for another excruciating week of American Idol. This time, I am doing this without my wife present. I usually like someone to bounce ideas before I type. When she can't stop laughing, I know it is good. Without further ado...



Anoop: Yawn. Slumdog Millionaire came out on Blue Ray and DVD. That is something good to watch. Paula is draining the life out of me. I may go back to working on payroll instead of watching this show. I'm already bored.





Megan: I wanna give you some good lovin'. I wanna keep the light on, though. I need the lights turned on when I break out the video camera. Paula is crazy. Does Paula have an adam's apple? Another boring song. Don't go, Megan. Don't go!





Danny: I hate the fundamentalist, but he is good. But a standing ovation? A long pause for applause? He's no Pavarotti. What's with the woman in the pink standing behind the "Go Go Gokey" sign? Looks like a drag queen hooker, or is that a hooker drag queen... What would be the proper way of writing that out?





Allison: "Don't speak" if you are caught in a back seat of a car with her... she's only 16. She's dressed like a Japanese Anime chick on crack. She shouted a bit. She's got originality. God! This shit is so boring. How can people religiously follow this show?





Scott: Somebody put some sunglasses on him! Looks like they tamed down his fro a little. Why does he keep looking up while he sings? Can't he see there is nothing up there? Another lame-ass song sung by a lame-ass singer. Somebody needs to show his poor-sighted sister the refrigerator; the only thing that is 'thick' on her is her glasses. Paula, one week, says he should get away from the piano. Now she says that playing the piano without the band was a great idea. What is she, bi-polar? No need to answer that one.





Matt: That third eye in the middle of his forehead is still staring at me. Make it go away. I haven't head such good keyboard work since Miami Vice Theme Song. Keyboard, 80's leather jacket, poor skin care... he should have played a Michael Jackson song. Did Paula say the word "aborted"? I'm surprised that wasn't bleeped out on FOX.





Lil: "I surrender" to that badonkadonk. All hail THAT badonkadonk. Who has more muscular arms, Lil or Michele Obama? She did better this week. She is screaming less. Seacrest, get out of the camera shot. Who do you think you are, John McCain. Randy, quit grabbing that little girl's ass!





Adam: One word: DIVA. Will gay-America keep him in the competition another week? I hate to say this, but I'd rather listen to Twice As Nice sing this song. Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler, and Adam Lambert? WTF, Paula? OMG. She is MIA. She must be FUBAR'ed.





Kris: Never trust a man with two first names as a first and last name. "I know, I know, I know" he will be gone soon enough. Show more shots of his beard, I mean, wife. Another bar song.






I don't know what to say about this group. They are all too lame to even be exciting to watch. I wasted 90 minutes watching this show again. I will never get these 90 minutes back. I could have gave my cat an enema 45 times, and I would have enjoyed that more that this show. And I would have less scars, also.

Who will win: Danny

Who I want to win: Allison

Who will go: Matt

i think this kid


should take up this past time


i never knew hee-haw was so strange. red, is this on the season i got you?

WTF?

Ain't No Drug To Make Me High Enough...

to make me think this show is good and the singers are actually talented. I've heard better talent on "Gimme The Mike, Columbus"...I never watched that bad show, but I'm sure there was somebody just as good as these folks.

This is why I decided to get another American Idol review going on. I was going to do one last week, but I was busy. I downloaded the show to review and to write one later in the week, but that just sounded too faggy for me.

This week, and if I remember to for the remaining run of this season, I will be doing a "live" post. After every song is sung by these hacks, I will post my comment on the song. So all can follow along with my view of the show.

Here is my review of the American Idol TOP 10...



1. Matt Giraud: I prefer when he sits to the left of the piano. I thought I was watching the 'inverse of suck' for a moment... then I heard him sing. He's dressed like he just left his day job as IT support at Google. Can that bump in the middle of his forehead get any larger? He's no Justin Timberlake... he hasn't even f%cked a crazy Mickey Mouse Club Alumnus, yet.





2. Kris Allen: Somebody tell him that he is only a bar singer... on a non-holiday weekend... in the valley. "How sweet it is to" have a mute button on my remote control. We need Randy Jackson to thug-it-out and grab that guitar and beat him over the head. That sound might be better than listening to him sing. What's with the numbers printed on the the shoulders of his shirt? Was he in prison? If he was, he took it up the ass A LOT. He probably sucked the biggest guy as soon as he entered the prison courtyard.





3. Scott MacIntyre: "But momma said, 'if you grow up tall, you just have to keep your head down, you may walk into something!'" He was horrible. Just as horrible as his pants. They looked a little 'tight'. Did he see that in the mirro... oh. Why is Randy Jackson dressed like a 1990 female high school teacher? Bye Bye Scott.





4. Megan Joy: Looks like Smokey got a stiffey. And so did I. Just dress like that and she'll go far and deeply penetrate the show. Don't worry, Megan, I got nothing but love for you. 10 seconds of love, but love. Scott stays, Megan goes. Damn!




Side Note: What is with all the damn commercials. I am losing my mojo. Now I know how a Super Bowl player feels, waiting through the commercial breaks and long halftime show.

5. Anoop Desai: He looks like he left his day job as IT Support... for Microsoft. We need the "Soul Patrol" back! Remember the "Soul Patrol"? What the fu$k were we thinking about back then? I mean, come on! All in all, Anoop is good. Is American Idol televised in India? Does Indian government, instead of commercials, inject long song and dance numbers with Bollywood actors in between performances? If so, Anoop has a 3 billion vote head start.





6. Michael Sarver: Why don't you 'take it to church' and swindle unsuspecting folks out of hard-earned money over the false premise that it will get you to an imaginary fairyland. Then I wouldn't have to see you on Fox... Only on FOX NEWS. He's the guy who goes to karaoke night at the local hotel bar in his best clothes to sing it up for 40-something women staying at the hotel. Sad, just SAD. Megan may be safe. Thank GOD!





7. Lil Rounds: FINALLY! A BLACK WOMAN SINGIN! Who looks less like a woman in the face?... Lil or Smokey? That's the soul I've been waiting for. Oh, wait! She sucks like the rest of them. I mistook screaming for soul. Kinda like a Southern Baptist... the more they scream, the more soul they have, the more closer to God they are. I think I am going to download some Tina. Then I can hear some talent for the evening. What is with Paula's ring? How much cocaine does she need to do between songs?





8. Adam Lambert: Twilight came out on DVD this week. There are a lot of wet 13 year-old girls out there ready, and willing, to vote for a vamp. What does he do? GO ELVIS! There isn't enough makeup in the world to fill in the holes in his skin. My earlier prediction may be correct... he may be the winner. Would I buy his CD. F$CK NO! I would change the channel on my Sirius Stiletto 2 if he was on it.






9. Danny Gokey: "Get Ready" for a Christian pop album disguised as 'mainstream'. If he were any safer he would be wearing a whole-body condom. He makes Middle America feel like Bush was in office again: Fun, carefree, no black guy telling me what to do, stem cell research is still outlawed, we are doing God's work in Iraq, evil-doers will be punished, abstinence-only education is the only way to stop the spread of HIV, ...





10. Allison Iraheta: Feel the Funk! I like her. She is original. Originality means you will be eliminated. Cause Middle America needs to feel snug at night, with the same shit that has been pumped into the music market for the past decade+. The same shit that makes them think things are not changing. Don't go to the new restaurant... go to McDonald's or Wendy's or Applebee's... order the same shit.... eat the same shit... don't try anything new... run back to the old shit... like they run back to the old ipod songs, instead of 'going forward' into the unknown...

Who I want to win... Allison Iraheta

Who will win... Danny Gokey

P.S. Barry Gordy is full of shit! I did like The Last Dragon, though. F-in' GREAT film... "Who's the Master?"

Another Reason to Hate Rupert Murdoch

Tonight, American Idol kicked off it's Final 12 with a Final 13. Do we really need one more shitty week of this show? And how fun for it to be "Michael Jackson Week" this week. Here, once again, is my American Idol Finals Review.



1. Lil Rounds:
"You make me feel" like changing the channel. She is as close as there is to a BBW on this year's finals. Where is BBW at this year? We need a BBW!






2. Scott MacIntyre:
Don't fall off the stage! Too bad he'll never see Paula's feathered dress.







3. Danny Gokey:
Jamira-gay. How many pairs of different colored glasses does he own?







4. Michael Sarver:
What the hell are you doing on this show! Your co-workers are making fun of you every night at the local bar where you all go after work.






5. Jasmine Murray:
Looks like her mom bought some new hair for the top 13 performances. Boring.






6. Kris Allen:
He sucks! His Wife's Hot! Why is he playing an acoustic guitar for a Michael Jackson song? That is like playing tambourine during a death metal song, it doesn't look right.






7. Allison Iraheta:
She's only 16? She sounds like a rock veteran who drinks a bottle of whiskey a night. Well, she dresses goth but she is not dark; she doesn't cut herself or anything.






8. Anoop Desai:
Kumar! Is there a part of Hollywood NOT invaded by BOLLYWOOD?! FIrst the Oscars, now American Idol. What's next... Bollywood actors on "Celebrity Rebah with Dr Drew"?






9. Jorge Nuñez:
Carnival Cruise Lines is calling... they want their headline act back.







10. Megan Joy:
I was waiting for Bob Hope to come walking out with a golf club over his shoulder. All she needed was a U.S.O. hat. Can't wait to see the rest of her tattoos in Penthouse in four years.






11. Adam Lambert:
When did Zac Efron turn SUPERgay? You go girl!







12. Matt Giraud:
Why, Why am I still watching this show. Paula's pills are wearing off.







13. Alexis Grace:
Her dad looks like somebody who shouldn't be around kids.






Where is the SUPER-SUPER Gay Sanjaya? Where is the BBW? Where is the weird looking back-up singer with her first shot at the front? Where is the crooning 15 year-old boy?

My prediction for American Idol winner? Adam Lambert

Just Some of Them

There are a few HUGE banks about to fold. Now, to suppress American panic, the names of these banks are not being exclaimed by the media, but I'll tell you who. They rhyme with: "Skank" of America and "Shitty" Bank.

Well, when you make your bed out of shit, you have to sleep in it. Tell me if you or someone you know have heard this or in some way like this, "It's the American Dream, to own a home. Sure, you have no money down. But, we at ___ Bank have an Adjustable Rate Mortgage that will give you the dream everyone else has. Yes, your mortgage rate will reset in 12/18 months, but don't worry.... I will re-finance with you when that time comes."

These banks, especially the C.E.O.'s... actually mostly the chief executives... made millions and millions off these Adjustable Rate Loans. The banks, though, were stuck with these volatile assets. So who came running to their aid? Like Mother Theresa to starving children? The Government. And what did the banks say? "Give us the money, and WE promise to start loaning again." What did the do? Gobbled up all the money like the Cookie Monster stumbled into a Tollhouse factory and bought private jets and continued Executive Bonuses.

How can we solve this problem? Be like China. We may be owned by China, but we do not act like China. When 2 businesses in China supplied, to school children, milk which was tainted with melamine, China sentenced the two company's C.E.O. to DEATH!

Now, am I saying that any person who took part in the SCAM perpetrated on the American people by DICKS who watched "Boiler Room" too many times, and thought they were smarter than they actually were should be put to death? No, not all of them.

Just a few of them. Just like the poem Beowulf, use some the antagonists body parts and place them all around the perimeter of the Wall Street sector. Just as a reminder that "this could be you." Otherwise, the banks will keep getting the bailout money, the jets will still be purchased, the exurbanite amount of raises will remain steady, cubicle-living-creeps will still con a Grandmother into a new predatory loan, and ...

Tax-Payer Money To Save Them For This?

Will downturn put brakes on Nascar?
By Kevin Connolly
BBC News, Daytona, Florida

Daytona International Speedway, Florida Across the states of the Old South, where the first hesitant warmth of spring is starting to make itself felt, the air is filling with the smell of barbecue smoke, burned tyres and brake-fluid.

America's favourite motorsport - Nascar - is back for another season powered as always by a rich cocktail of beer, testosterone and high-octane gasoline.

For 70 million or so Americans, this is car-racing as it should be - a world away from Formula One, which many Nascar enthusiasts find effete, over-regulated and out of touch with driving in the real world.

Nascar is tuned for the American palate.

Cars which are essentially over-muscled versions of the vehicles you drive yourself are packed together on to an oval track and raced over hundreds of miles until a winner emerges.

The speeds are dangerous (over 200mph), the spectacle gladiatorial and the passionate crowds extraordinary.

The Daytona International Speedway, where the season starts with a 500-mile challenge, holds nearly 170,000 - and millions more will watch the opening races of the season on TV.

Sponsors

It is a loyal, largely blue-collar demographic, concentrated in the sport's south-eastern heartland but found throughout the US.

No wonder that sponsors have always flocked to it - and not just the obvious sponsors like Ford and Chevrolet.

Advertisers like sports where it is easy to grasp the profile of the crowds; so they love Nascar. It is a vehicle for selling everything from whiskey and beer to cheese-flavoured crackers and indigestion tablets - at least it always has been until now.

Car sales have plummeted in the US in recent months and the leaders of the big three auto-makers (Ford, GM and Chrysler) have been exploring the chances of a federal bailout.

So can they afford to keep pumping dollars into this money-guzzling sport, when those dollars might come from the American tax-payer?

Jenna Fryer, who covers the sport for the Associated Press, says she doubts it. "It's very hard to justify spending $10m, $15m or $20m a year on a race car going round and round right now... they've got to be very careful how it's perceived in Nascar."

Ailing car industry

American sport in general, for all its astonishing capacity to generate and spend money, will not be exempt from the national downturn - the most serious economic crisis since either World War II or the Wall Street Crash (everyone has their own favourite historical benchmark to fit in at the end of that sentence).

The issue has already surfaced briefly here and there.

"I think the situation is hard on everybody, not just Nascar and F1, but every sport"
Juan Pablo Montoya


Alex Rodriguez, the big-hitting third baseman for the New York Yankees, is probably lucky he got the team's owners to sign his 10-year, $275m contract a few months before it became clear that the national economy was falling off a cliff. (And before it turned out he had been pumping up his batting average on steroids, back in 2003.)

And Citigroup, one of the now bail-out-funded family of humbled American banks, appeared to hesitate before confirming that its $400m sponsorship of the new home of the New York Mets would be going ahead.

But Nascar is particularly vulnerable to recession - its fortunes, after all, are inextricably linked to the fortunes of America's ailing car industry.

In the old days, when the cars you saw racing on the track were basically the same vehicles you saw in your local Ford or Chevy showroom, the link could not have been simpler: "Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday", the old-timers will tell you.

There are plenty of cars likes the Oldsmobile 88, the Ford Galaxie and the Chevy Impala 409 that got a flying start in the American imagination through their performances on the Nascar track - and racing success still makes a huge difference to sales. Hence the readiness of the Big Three - and their Japanese rivals - to spend big on Nascar.

But if those car makers aren't shifting product, and customers cannot afford to buy cars - will the flow of money into Nascar dry up?

Recession's impact

I went down to Daytona Beach, Florida, for the season's media launch and put that question to some of the drivers who were wheeled out to meet the media.


To be fair to the star racers, they were really there to answer questions like "Are you looking forward to this season?", but they were polite enough to answer.

Juan Pablo Montoya, who just made the transition from Formula 1 to Nascar, said simply: "I think the situation is hard on everybody, not just Nascar and F1, but every sport... you always hope the grandstands will be full and so far people have come."

Rising star Martin Truex Jr said the sport was resilient even though the economic situation was making itself felt: "I think it's changed drivers, sponsors and owners... but it's still going to be the elite racing series in the world, no matter what."

Those effects are real though. There are rumours that ticket-sales and prices for TV advertising slots are down.

And perhaps the biggest sign of how the economy is hurting is that the winter schedule of testing - a costly ritual that keeps the fans interested during the off-season - was scrapped.

Nascar president Brian France said that decision had been taken for the overall good of the sport - effectively acknowledging the impact of recession.

"Our decisions impact so many people - race fans, track operators, TV partners and sponsors - that has to be reflected," he explained.

As the season proper kicks off with the Daytona 500, how will the downturn affect this vibrantly American, cheerfully consumerist sport?

In the best recent movie about Nascar, Talladega Nights, Will Ferrell plays a down-on-his luck star driver whose team is struggling to attract sponsors - at one point in place of the usual oil company and soft drinks logos on his car, he is reduced to taking personal ads.

No-one is suggesting that Nascar is quite there in real life - but this is going to be a tough season around the oval theatres of dreams.

NYE, part deux

ok, i've gotten some action on the plans but not as much as i'd hoped; actually, only JHo and TheSteadman, and Chump might have to work. so, here's the dilly. i'm thinking mcfadden's ($100), but we need 1 or 5 more people (or 9 if we're feeling frisky) to round out the 4 person/table thing. if we don't get good numbers, i'll book whoever is down to go to FBWB. it doesn't seem they have a table minimum. no open bar :-( but i'll survive i'm sure, hah.

my plan is to give you guys a few days to think, (i'll email too) and i'll book reservations around the 22nd or 23rd. get back to me here, at my yahoo, or at my gmail account. TheGeneral address if you must, but i won't be checking it as often. i'll be available on my US phone as of 7PM EST on friday, the 19th. later.

internal dialogue

NYE

anyone interested in doing something different this news years? i've been talking to people to look into things and so far these are some decent ideas that seem cool. we'll taxi about, whatever, just have fun and get out.

1. The Lodge Bar - $15 advance tickets, $2 draft, $3 wells, we can reserve a table ahead of time, live music by Bling Crosbys


2. Frog Bear Wild Boar - platinum package is $40 per person, reserved table, dinner buffet 7-10pm, complimentary bottle of bubbly, live music by Introspect and DJ Nohbody


3. McFadden's - $100/person for table of 4, complimentary bottle of champagne, dinner buffet, live music and dancing, OPEN BAR!!! or if we didn't want a table, it is the same benefits without the table for $70/person ($65/person if we have more 10+ people)

i seriously think all of them look fun and affordable, it's something new for us to do. it'll be fun. i've only ever been to FBWB myself. anyone been to the others? reviews? plus, with the free bottle of champagne and open bar at McFadden's, i think whichever option we might choose, we'd end up saving money. i'm seriously up for any of those ideas, or let's try some other place. also, i invite anyone to come up with other suggestions. let me know.

the mosquito test - how old are your ears?

i found a link yesterday about how kids are using 17 Hz tones on their phones in school to alert them of text messages. this is because the older you get, the less likely you are to be able to hear tones of the frequency. the page has frequencies from 11-18 Hz programmed into it. i was using it at work the other day and it was hilarious. i started at 18 and worked my way down until i surreptitiously observed that everyone had noticed, and it was strikingly accurate. i could hear all the tones, and as i moved down, more and more people noticed. let us know how it works for you.

What Next?

It's going to be WAR. Probably with Pakistan.

When we have an Administration who will go to war with those who never attacked us (it's called "The Bush Doctrine" Mrs. Palin) what makes Bush or McCain NOT attack Pakistan? They house Osama bin Laden. The U.S.A. is currently launching missile attacks inside the sovereign nation of Pakistan, against Pakistan's wishes. Now there are reports of a suicide bombing of a Marriot Hotel in Pakistan. Is that the opening the govn't needs?

McCain will invade Pakistan...Hell, he wants to talk about attacking our allies.

Free LEVI !!!

FREE LEVI !!!

Just Days Away

a line from a September 20th N.Y. Times article:

"As Senator Christopher J. Dodd, Democrat of Connecticut and chairman of the Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs Committee, put it Friday morning on the ABC program “Good Morning America,” the congressional leaders were told “that we’re literally maybe days away from a complete meltdown of our financial system, with all the implications here at home and globally.”"

And, on another topic, what does John McCain have in his brain as to how to get more Americans health care?

John McCain’s article, "Better Health Care at Lower Cost for Every American", in the Sept./Oct. issue of Contingencies, the magazine of the American Academy of Actuaries. You might want to be seated before reading this.

Here’s what McCain has to say about the wonders of market-based health reform:

"Opening up the health insurance market to more vigorous nationwide competition, as we have done over the last decade in banking, would provide more choices of innovative products less burdened by the worst excesses of state-based regulation."

Yeah, let's make health care like the current banking system. If we do, then we will have Socialistic Health Care. Since a great deal of banks are now under government control (and as much as a trillion plus dollars more of our money will be used to run banks).

Why does the Oil Industry never get Socialized? Only the failing markets get controlled by the government. Why does the Conservatives NOT take over successful Oil Companies so WE (the taxpayers) can get a return on all our bad investments? That would be Liberal, to take over successful stuff. Let the fat cats get richer when they are turning a profit, but bail them out when they Fukk up royally.

And yes, They are the ones who Fukked up. Ben Bernake, the Fed Chairman, even admitted it to Congress.

What Does This Mean To US?

And what does THIS mean to US?

Good Point J Ho

With all those financial institutions shutting down, how does this one stay in business.

R.I.P.

Countrywide Financial: 1969-2008

IndyMac: 1985-2008

Bears Sterns: 1923-2008

Fannie Mae: 1923-2008

Freddie Mac: 1968-2008

Lehman Brothers: 1844-2008

Merrill Lynch: 1914-2008

American International Group (AIG): 1919-2008

Lehman Brothers survived WWI, WWII, and the Fukkin' Depression! But couldn't survive the housing crisis. Predatory Lending, the Housing Bubble Burst, and several other factors led to the demise of these and many more financial institutions. Many Americans were severely affected by this collapse.

But you don't see them getting bailed out by the Government. Except for a stimulus check that was gobbled up by Oil Companies who happened to increase gasoline prices during that time to $5.00/gallon; and grocery stores who raised basic food prices to record numbers during that time.

Really, It's Just Common Sence

The Farmer's Almanac Can Predict The Future...

Bullshit!

One of the examples of “the media being the message” is the annual release of the Farmers’ Almanac predictions of the coming winter. The mass media treat this as a story worthy of being reported. This is in spite of the fact that the Almanac’s predictions are — in the words of magician-comedians Penn & Teller — bullshit. Yet like so many other outlets, the Hartford Courant tells us:
___________________________________________________________
People worried about the high cost of keeping warm this winter will draw little comfort from the Farmers’ Almanac, which predicts below-average temperatures for most of the U.S.

“Numb’s the word,” says the 192-year-old publication, which claims an accuracy rate of 80 to 85 percent for its forecasts that are prepared two years in advance.

The almanac’s 2009 edition says at least two-thirds of the country can expect colder-than-average temperatures this winter, with only the Far West and Southeast in line for near-normal readings.
_________________________________________________________

Unfortunately the people who publish the Almanac either cannot or will not divulge their prediction method. But fortunately, we can test their predictions’ accuracy … and they fail. Meteorologists have taken on the Farmers’ Almanac (and the similarly-named and similarly-themed Old Farmer’s Almanac, which is in the same business of spewing baseless weather predictions) and have found them to be, well, "unimpressive" might be the kindest assessment.

Some of their predictions are too vague to be testable…others have been shown to be downright wrong. The bottom line is that the Almanac’s claim of 80 to 85 percent accuracy is exactly and only that — a claim. They can claim to be able to flap their arms and fly to the heavens, too, but that wouldn’t be any more correct.

Just the fact that the Almanac has been in print for so many years does not give it veracity. Lots of things are old, but that doesn’t make them right.?.?

An AP article consults an NOAA meteorologist on the matter, who also wouldn’t comment specifically on the almanac’s ability to forecast the weather two years from now, but said it’s generally impossible to come up with accurate forecasts more than a week in advance.

What is with the Almanac? You can't comment on it's actuality? Even experts are discouraged from talking about it. Is it "un-American" to be 'truthful' about an institution so ingrained in this country? I don't give a flying fuck, I speak the truth.

Is this talk of below average temps and above average precip a ploy to make Americans think that Global Climate Change is not happening? Before the election? To garner more support for McCain, who is in the pocket of Corporations and it's lobbyists (the Almanac is bought by companies who then give it away for free -- without the companies, no Almanac)? And without relevance, no power.

It would have been nice if the NOAA scientist had been a little more forceful and stated the truth more clearly: “The Almanac is bullshit!” But I guess someone in government can’t afford to be undiplomatic. The AP wraps up its advertisement story on the Almanac by giving it a fashionable “green” endorsement:
___________________________________________________
If there’s a theme to this year’s almanac, it’s environmental awareness, frugality and living a sustainable life. There are articles on water conservation, gas-sipping motor scooters, natural cures and preventions for colds and other illnesses, and on growing food without a yard.
___________________________________________________

Sorry, but I don’t buy bullshit, even if it meets the politically-correct standard of being “green”.

"Green" Bullshit is the same as Very Old, Stale, Hardened Bullshit.

Well It's About Damn Time...

the Big Reds got a win.
