    Drug Testing for Welfare Recipients

    A popular subject with some here on EO a while back, when Florida Governor Rick Scott signed the legislation. Those welfare bums are all on drugs.

    Peace Through Pork, or, There's a Pig in the Paint!

    This sounds made up, reads like something you might find on "The Onion," or SNL, but it's not. Ya just can't make it up. It's real. A lot of Muslims, and certainly most Jihadists won't think this is funny, but I think it's hilarious. It's true, everything is better wrapped in bacon! What kind...

    Holy Dog Butt, Batman!

    I'll never look at Buttered Toast Jesus the same way again. Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase, "Holy S***!" Should make you think twice the next time you scoop it up, put in it a plastic bag, and send it the landfill. It's not a coincidence that "dog" spelled backwards is... well, you...

    Unbridled Exuberant Arrogance

    Unimopassioned Reporting?

    Here's an AP story that carefully crafts the narrative to be significantly slanted in favor of the gun control folks. Not only that, but they do it in such a way as to subliminally suggest to those same gun control folks that they should target a particular gun maker. Notice how the paragraphs...

    Do You Use Facebook?

    This started out as a reply in another thread, but as I began to write, it became something else. So I leave it here for your consideration and random pondering.

    And it's the lamest name ever. A123 Systems, the Obama-bailed-out but still failed battery maker, making batteries for Fisker Automotive and others, located in Livonia, Romulus and Ann Arbor, and bought out by Wanxiang North America, has changed their name from A123 to B456. What a hoot. :D

    Mobil 1 0W-40

    I found Mobile 1 0W-40 at Walmart today, in 5-quart jugs. First time I've seen it anywhere in quantity other than 1 quart bottles. The 5-quart jugs were priced at $24.97 each. That's five bucks a quart, considerably cheaper than the $9.47 at Autozone. I picked up 2 jugs.
