The weeks's oddities
Before I go for a while I wanted to scribe out for you some weird ones this week:
Candidate Romney fired his gardener due to someone complaining that some of them were illegal aliens. He had the same trouble last year but the company he had hired assured him they would fix the problem. He said that he had no way of knowing whether they were illegal or not since he had not ask them; therefore it wasn't his fault.
Somehow however he found out in a few hours that again there were illegals working for him (he must have asked them)and he fired them. He also said he never asked everyone in a restaurant where he ate if all there were legal or not. Now if he don't ask, and the feds don't ask, and the local cops don't ask, we ain't never going to find them, are we. I think we don't want to find them--we just don't want them getting any benefits, or send their kids to school, or have a bank account. Change that attitude or leave them alone!
I saw where Oprah Winfrey was going on the road with Barack Obama and I though how will she manage that out there on the road in Iowa, when a farmer asks her what she or Obama thinks about farm subsidies.
I found out later though that, "on the road" meant three domes full of supporters and Soap opera watchers
within a building!
Rudolph Guiliani indicated upon the occasion of his divorce (#2) that he couldn't give that wife much since he only had $700 in the bank and had nothing he could sell.
It was announced yesterday that he now has approximately $30 million dollars!
Wonder who issued that many contracts for his firm in the last 3-4 years? Anybody know? Also, who pays him 50,000 to $300,000 for a 20 minute speech? That would still be a lot of speeches.
Doesn't sound right. Bet Bernie Kerik also has a few million now that he may have brought back from Iraq when he set up their wonderful police force several years ago!
A high school girl fell off the Fox theater stage and she may die or be crippled. The fall was 12 feet the AJC said. OSHA (the one Ronald Reagan stripped all the resources away from) said they would investigate as soon as the local manager could find time to check it out--he is the only employee in Georgia. No wonder these deep ditches around here fall on people and kill them!
Today, the central federal bank decided it might be time to crack down on predator lenders (nearly all banks)who loan money to people based upon over assessed values, and little if any income. I thought bank examiners already did some of that? Guess not!
However, them that bought million dollar homes and find themselves having to cut back on dining out in order to pay the new interest rates, will have their loans shucked down to value and have the lower interest frozen. It is the bums who bought 1-300,000 dollar houses who will lose all they have paid.
Got to talk a little about our hyped up false positive world of today.
Georgia Tech hired the Navy coach for seven years at about - well several million, I don't remember) payable if fired anytime. He is already being touted as going to beat Georgia every year for sure. He also smiles and talks more better than did Chan Gailey.
It will surprise me if he does any better than Gailey as to games won since Tech doesn't take in half-idiots to play football. But he will be more impressive and have plenty of "potential."
Good luck to you.
