Walking up to a department store’s fabric counter, the pretty girl said, “I would like to buy this material for a new dress. How much does it cost?” “Only one kiss per yard,” replied the male clerk with a smirk. “That’s fine,” said the girl. “I’ll take ten yards.” With expectation and anticipation written all over his face, the clerk quickly measured out the cloth, wrapped it up, then teasingly held it out.

Dear Comrades,

Young Socialists across the USSA are noticing that the Department of Education and Indoctrination’s new Communist International Core State Standards Initiative, known as ‘Comintern Core’ or ‘ComIn Core,’ is being implemented across all administrative districts.

As students gather for mandatory education programs, they are learning not only about reading and writing, but also about the value of community and the necessity of Socialism for the survival of mankind.    Continue reading “ComIn Core Being Implemented in All USSA Schools”

NEW YORK — Sometimes the bait is a small amount of cash in a stray wallet. Or a credit card. Even a pack of cigarettes can do the trick.

Police in New York City leave the items unattended – on subway platforms, on park benches, in cars – and wait to see if someone grabs them.   Continue reading “NYPD ‘Lucky Bag’ Tactic, Use To Fight Theft, Comes Under Criticism”

ORLANDO, Florida (Reuters) – South Florida is fighting a growing infestation of one of the world’s most destructive invasive species: the giant African land snail, which can grow as big as a rat and gnaw through stucco and plaster.

More than 1,000 of the mollusks are being caught each week in Miami-Dade and 117,000 in total since the first snail was spotted by a homeowner in September 2011, said Denise Feiber, a spokeswoman for the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.

Earlier in the week I posted on the New York man who had his firearm confiscated, purportedly for being on anti-depressant drugs (which I noted at the time is a treatment for a fairly common malady; making the confiscation akin to seizing someone’s broken arm for the crime of wearing a cast). As the story broke and started gaining narrative steam, NY state law enforcement (Erie) suggested that the whole thing had been an honest record-keeping mistake and that the mental health aspect of the story as it had been reported wasn’t true.   Continue reading “NY’s Cuomo and DHS lie, collude on gun confiscation gambit?”

It’s now being suggested that Google Glass, the computers worn over the eyes, can be used to catch rogue stock traders before they wander off the reservation and destroy the firms they work for.

Google Glass records everything the wearer sees and says. So if all brokers are ordered to have them, their every move can be observed by company spies. Wonderful, right?   Continue reading “Google Glass: obedience to the Matrix”

Clothing stores, like this one in Belfast, Northern Ireland, feature t-shirts with the image of Marxist freedom fighter Ernesto "Che" Guevara. Hollywood and counterculture hipsters romanticize the life of a man who executed thousands and said "the victory of Socialism is worth millions of atomic deaths." /Wikimedia CommonsThe Daily Cougar – by Sarah Backer

Next time you see someone sporting a shirt or anything with the visage of Marxist freedom fighter, Ernesto “Che” Guevara, stop and ask them what they know about this romanticized symbol of revolution.

Chances are it’s not too much.   Continue reading “Che: A revolution in pop culture misrepresentation”

In order for the US to permit citizens of a foreign country to enter the US without a visa, that country must agree to certain conditions. Chief among them is reciprocity: that country must allow Americans to enter without a visa as well. There are 37 countries which have been permitted entrance into America’s “visa waiver” program, and all of them – all 37 – reciprocate by allowing American citizens to enter their country without a visa.   Continue reading “Barbara Boxer, AIPAC seek to codify Israel’s right to discriminate against Americans”

There’s a dirty little secret in some organic fruit orchards.

A civil war looks likely to break out in America, and it will pit gun rights advocates (people who love liberty) against gun control zealots (people who hate freedom and love tyranny). The battle lines are being drawn right now as gun manufacturers are leaving anti-Constitution states like Connecticut and Colorado and relocating to pro-Constitution states like Texas and Arizona.   Continue reading “Civil war battle lines being drawn as Magpul, Colt, Beretta and other gun manufacturers relocate to pro-Constitution states”

LONDON – The ‘legacy thing’ is especially hard to manage when large swaths of the population feel that a former political puppet was completely on the wrong side of history.

Just ask Tony Blair, who is a shoe-in to grace the annals of history as one of most evil, money-orientated and unapologetic leaders in history. But this year’s fury has been reserved for the ‘The Iron Lady’, who many Britons believe laid the groundwork for the elitist, dysfunctional, closing society and greed-plagued political culture the country is unfortunately witnessing today.   Continue reading “BBC Shoot Themselves in Foot Again Trying to Preserve Thatcher’s Thorny Legacy”
