I'm so old, I can remember when...
I'm so old, I can remember when the cartoons in the New Yorker Magazine were funny...
Especially when Charles Barsotti was drawing them. Not so much laugh-out-loud funny as they were subtle and humorous.

And maybe the best single-panel cartoon ever created.
If you agree, then we have the same sense of
what's both funny and subtle. Good for us...

Tax the rich. Feed the poor. Till there are no rich no more...
This was written 52 years ago. Listen again.

Lawmakers in the land of fruits and nuts have latched on to yet another crazy idea. They're pushing legislation that would impose a new tax on the state’s wealthiest residents - even if they’ve already moved to another part of the country.
State Assemblyman Alex Lee, a progressive Democrat (like that's some kinda surprise), last week introduced a bill in the California Legislature that would impose an extra annual 1.5% tax on those with a “worldwide net worth” above $1 billion, starting as early as January 2024. As early as 2026, the threshold for being taxed would drop: Those with a worldwide net worth exceeding $50 million would be hit with a 1% annual tax on wealth, while billionaires would still be taxed 1.5%.
Worldwide wealth extends beyond annual income to include diverse holdings such as farm assets, arts and other collectibles, and stocks and hedge fund interest. Basically, what they want to tax is every single thing you own that has a value above the one cent threshhold. The legislation is a modified version of a wealth tax approved in the California Assembly in 2020, which - as impossible as it is to believe - the Democrat-led state Senate declined to pass.

This statue was known as 'Christ of the Caribbean' and was constructed back in 1956 on Peace Hill on the north shore of St John in the Virgin Islands. The statue was destroyed during Hurrican Marilyn back in 1995.

I had a friend of mine who was a big, fat funny New York born-and-raised Jew who used to love to go up and hang out under that statue and get high and just watch the sailboats go by for hours and hours on end. He called the statue Murray. After it was destroyed in the storm, he never went back up to - what was - his favorite place in the world. Interesting, huh?

Y'all know I'm a huge Hall & Oates fan, but I'm also a big fan of Styx - and especially Tommy Shaw. If you've never seen Live from Darryl's House, take this as you introduction.

must be. She sure as shit is screwing around big time with her face and starting to get really scary looking.
I just read a short blurb that Universal Studios was planning on doing a 'Bio-Pic of her life and the project got shit-canned for some reason or another. Meanwhile. they pissed away $ 12,000,000.00 in development for the project. How the fuck do they throw that kind of money and effort on a dipshit project like that?

Okay - we have a winner for the 'Stupid Sports Olympics'...
These are the men - and some pretty bad-ass women - in the business of making us cringe as they risk their lives en route to being crowned 'slap fighting' champion. Many are trained in other mixed martial arts sports, and have waded into unfamiliar territory with this 'up and coming' sport. The aim of the game is simple: slap your opponent hard enough that they aren't able to slap you back.
They are not allowed to move, flinch, or defend themselves. As a result, the injuries are often brutal. The sport is becoming monetised over time, but there's still not enough in the winnings for competitors to leave their day jobs, and one league still keeps earnings confidential.

If Florida Man does nothing else, he makes for great headlines - like this one...
This is what happens when you let the Seminole Indians name the rivers, but that's a story for another day...
Fort Myers, FL - A man's been arrested for robbing a restaurant and defecating on it's floor after police found him nude in a Southwest Florida river. On January 24th, the Fort Myers Police Marine Unit received a report of a naked man who had jumped in the Caloosahatchee River.
Upon arrival, officers found 43-year-old Nathan Long naked and waiting on a nearby abandoned vessel. Detectives linked Long to security footage from a recent burglary at Joe's Crab Shack on 2024 W. First Street.
The footage showed Long breaking into the restaurant on January 21st, wandering the closed building, stealing several items, then shitting on the floor before leaving. (A surveillance camera caught him climbing through a small window. He then stole multiple items and then shit on the floor prior to leaving the scene.) While being interviewed by police, Long confessed to being the person taking the dump in the footage.
Long faces charges of burglary, petit theft, and property damage.
He's being held in the Lee County jail without bond.

Okay - here's one 'drop-in' story that makes no sense...
A 29-year-old woman who allegedly enrolled in a New Jersey high school and posed as a student has been arrested. The woman – identified by police as Hyejeong Shin – faces a charge of providing a false government document with the intent to lie about her age in a case which again demonstrates that officials in real life do not respond kindly to the plots of movies such as 1999’s Never Been Kissed and 1987’s Hiding Out being carried out under their watch.
Investigators accuse Shin of providing a fake birth certificate meant to convince officials that she was eligible to enroll at New Brunswick high school. The local school district’s superintendent said at a public meeting on Tuesday that Shin had actually gone to classes for four days before she was caught.
Some days the morning news is stranger than others. Like this morning...
When you wake up hearing the earth is changing direction, it can be a bit unsettling...
As if we don't have enough stupid shit to worry about up here on the surface, what lies below could be really friggin' scary.
Planet Earth's inner core may have stopped turning and could go into reverse, according to a study published this week.
Earth is formed of three layers: the crust, the mantle, and the core.
Made almost entirely of metal – specifically, iron and nickel, its inner core rests 3,200 miles below the crust, separated from the mantle by the liquid outer core which allows the inner core to rotate at a different speed from the planet's rotation.
Researchers studied seismic waves from repeating earthquakes that have passed through the Earth’s inner core over the last six decades to infer how fast the inner core is spinning. The study's authors said they found that the inner core's rotation "came to near halt around 2009 and then turned in an opposite direction."

OnlyFans 'golf star' Grace Charis' nipples almost burst through her skin-tight bodysuit as she made her way around the course.
The 'social media influencer' can be seen out on the course in a video uploaded to her Instagram this week as she carried her bag of clubs and hit a drive whilst wearing a skimpy outfit. In the clip, which she captioned: "Ate with no crumbs," Charis' nipples can be seen poking through the front of her tight outfit as she amazed her fans with the footage.
