What is relative value anymore? Gas at five bucks a gallon? Bread at four bucks a loaf?

Well, if you're making NFL or rock star money or have a government job, it really doesn't matter that much, does it... 

With fifty million dollars I can do a lot of good,
I never thought to win it, I never thought I would!
A golden day for certain, that will change my dreary life,
I’ll give some money to the poor, to help them in their strife… 

Fifty Million Dollars a year to play a game and 
I have to swing a hammer all day long just to keep 
bread on the table. Good for him, I guess...

 What science is capable of when artfully applied?

The brain of this 7-day-old zebra fish larva glows with fluorescent markers 
that were genetically engineered into it to illuminate its neural activity. 
Fish modified in this way were recently used in studies of memory formation. My only question is simple. How the fuck do these guy know if a fish can remember shit? This sounds like some kinda hocus-pocus bullshit to me, like they're making it up as they go along, bbut hey - good for them for having a silly-ass job like this. I hope they make NFL money doing it.

Was over a friend's house last night - cooking dinner for them of course. Friend's wife wants to start bringing the stuff to the table. Asks me for a pot holder. Didn't know which one to give her so I gave her the two I found in his kitchen drawer. Roach clip and a baggie.
Well played if I say so myself.

One day after the record for the average cost of gas nationwide was broken, prices at the pump continued to climb on Wednesday, jumping an average of 8 cents. 
The national average for a regular gallon of gas is now $4.25, according to AAA. On Tuesday, the cost was $4.17, breaking the July 2008 record of $4.11, which would be around $5.25 today when adjusted for inflation.

Growing up in Newark, we always thought 
Entenmann's was a local bakery.

Charles Entenmann, who propelled his family’s New York bakery into a national brand, died in Florida last month at the age of 92. 
 Entenmann, his brothers and mother expanded the Bay Shore business across the region and eventually the country, following the 1951 death of his father William Entenmann, a German immigrant who opened the bakery in Brooklyn in 1898, according to its website. His family sold its cakes-and-cookies enterprise to Bimbo Bakeries, a Mexican conglomerate, for $233 million in 1978 which is more than a billion dollars in today’s money. 
Entenmann’s still operates under new ownership, but closed their Bay Shore plant in 2014, the article said. Entenmann, a Korean War veteran, was a supporter and advocate for the Great South Bay YMCA, and funded research to improve water quality and habitats in the bay, which separates his hometown from Fire Island, according to his obituary.

Special occasion coming up soon? My
 wife's handmade jewelry is a great idea.

Baseball legend Ted Williams is shown in the cockpit 
of his jet fighter plane while taking a refresher course 
in 1952. Williams had forgone 5 MLB seasons to fight 
in WWII and Korea, flying 39 combat missions in Korea.

There's two things to consider here. One is that 7-year-old kids do not 
have to be talked to in their classrooms about what their options vis-a-vis sex change surgery is, and Two, nobody but the liberal media really gives a fuck what these LGBTQXYZ motherfuckers have to say about anything. Juss' sayin'...

    And I'll bet you can't afford to go watch him play that game in a stadium you're paying for.

  3. It's the "Anti-grooming Bill."
    Anyone who objects to NOT teaching pre-K through 3rd grade sex education deserves to be horsewhipped. Ever wonder the reason for pushing mandatory pre-K and K public education, besides just more jobs for union teachers? The younger they can get their hooks into them, the easier they are to manipulate.

    Given the propensity for public school teachers to engage in total nonsense and political and social indoctrination, every state should pass something similar. If they won't, I'd withdraw my younger children from the public school system.

Two great versions of the same song. Doesn't happen often...

The original is a time capsule by itself... And the version from Darryl's House...
