Quote of the Day
Waiting for the uptown express, I was standing in front of two men.
Man one: "Did you see that article in that magazine last week?"
Man two: "Which magazine?"
Man one: "You know, the one with Obama on the cover."
Man two: "With Obama on the cover? Christ, they all have Obama on the cover. It's getting so the only place I want to see Obama's picture is on a milk carton."

Phoenix
It's too bad there isn't a good smiley for the flushing sound.
“Phoenix, Arizona has become the kidnapping capital of America, with more incidents than any other city in the world outside Mexico City, and over 370 cases last year alone.”
First runner up for kidnapping capital of the world. And the kidnappers aren't friendly.

Quote of the Day
"Well, if you want to have a close and meaningful relationship with your attacker, then you should probably forego the gun and carry a knife. Me, I want a self-defense event to be as impersonal as possible. Click, boom, cleanup in Aisle Five. Nothing personal, no hard feelings–just rejecting an unacceptably termed business proposition."

Doing it right
This is the kind of thing that restores your faith in humanity.
Read the rest. That's sportsmanship.
Thanks, Xavier.
It didn't matter that his DeKalb, Ill., High School basketball team had ridden a bus two and a half hours to get to Milwaukee, then waited another hour past game time to play. Didn't matter that the game was close, or that this was a chance to beat a big city team. Something else was on Dave Rohlman's mind when he asked for a volunteer to shoot two free throws awarded his team on a technical foul in the second quarter. His senior captain raised his hand, ready to go to the line as he had many times before.
Only this time it was different.
"You realize you're going to miss them, don't you?" Rohlman said.
Darius McNeal nodded his head. He understood what had to be done.
Read the rest. That's sportsmanship.
Thanks, Xavier.

WABASHA -- A Wabasha husband and wife, devoted to each other for 63 years, died within hours of each other last weekend.
Joe Ahlers, 91, of Wabasha, died Saturday at St. Elizabeth's Nursing Home, and his wife, Alta Ahlers, 88, died Sunday at St. Elizabeth's Medical Center in Wabasha.
The couple died within 12 hours of each other.
After 63 years, it is just right that this couple finds eternal peace together.
