Sexual Deviance, Abuse and Sociopathic Behavior

Or in other words ... just a typical day among repugicans.

As yet another repugican - one of the most vocal anti-gay ones - is in caught in 'Glory-Hole' games.

Florida State Representative Bob Allen (repugican - Merritt Island) was arrested in Brevard county on charges of Solicitation For Prostitution.

He was observed entering and exiting the men's room at least three times and on the 'third time' he propositioned and undercover policeman ... offering to perform oral sex on him for $20.00.

*****

You know the economy is really that bad when even repugican sleazeballs are offering to pay you to let them perform oral sex on you instead of demanding you perform oral sex on them gratis ... just for the love of country and because you're a 'real American'.

'Meh': Apathetic expression enters dictionary

At least someone is excited about "meh."

The expression of indifference or boredom has gained a place in the Collins English Dictionary after generating a surprising amount of enthusiasm among lexicographers.
Publisher HarperCollins announced Monday the word had been chosen from terms suggested by the public for inclusion in the dictionary's 30th anniversary edition, to be published next year.

The origins of "meh" are murky, but the term grew in popularity after being used in a 2001 episode of "The Simpsons" in which Homer suggests a day trip to his children Bart and Lisa.
"They both just reply 'meh' and keep watching TV," said Cormac McKeown, head of content at Collins Dictionaries.

The dictionary defines "meh" as an expression of indifference or boredom, or an adjective meaning mediocre or boring.
Examples given by the dictionary include "the Canadian election was so meh."

The dictionary's compilers said the word originated in North America, spread through the Internet and was now entering British spoken English.
"This is a new interjection from the U.S. that seems to have inveigled its way into common speech over here," McKeown said.
"Internet forums and e-mail are playing a big part in formalizing the spellings of vocal interjections like these. A couple of other examples would be 'hmm' and 'heh.'"

"Meh" was selected by Collins after it asked people to submit words they use in conversation that are not in the dictionary.
Other suggestions included jargonaut, a fan of jargon; frenemy, an enemy disguised as a friend; and huggles, a hybrid of hugs and snuggles.

First Weekly Address from the President


President Obama will be speaking to the nation weekly on the net (or has plans to) and this is his first address to us.

Proof that the economy is bad - SPAM production up!

The economy is in tatters and, for millions of people, the future is uncertain. But for some employees at the Hormel Foods Corporation plant here, times have never been better. They are working at a furious pace and piling up all the overtime they want.

The workers make Spam, perhaps the emblematic hard-times food in the American pantry.

Through war and recession, Americans have turned to the glistening canned product from Hormel as a way to save money while still putting something that resembles meat on the table. Now, in a sign of the times, it is happening again, and Hormel is cranking out as much Spam as its workers can produce.

In a factory that abuts Interstate 90, two shifts of workers have been making Spam seven days a week since July, and they have been told that the relentless work schedule will continue indefinitely.
