Odds and Ends

I was cleaning my desk this long Memorial Day weekend and a few things came across my mind…

I went to D.C. this week to talk to the Federal Communications Commission about radio and TV issues. It’s amazing how people get to that city and lose all sense of common sense. And pollsters wonder why there is so much apathy about our leaders today? And then there is Senator Arlen “Single Bullet Theory” Specter (R-PA) who has nothing to do except worry about the Patriots and Spygate. Get on with governing, Senator!

My daughter turns 18 this week! Wow. How will my wife and I celebrate? Is crying allowed?

Did you see the article about Budweiser kicking in $21 million as part of settlement for the Station Nightclub fire? Okay, it was horrible that so many people died, but how do you justify suing the beer company any more than you can justify suing the radio station that promoted the event? I’ll answer that for you…they [Bud] have the deep pockets and that is what is wrong with the system today. We need tort reform and we need it now. Let’s start asking everyone who runs for office about capping rewards in lawsuits.

News flash for Mrs. Hilary Rodham Clinton…the fat lady has sung! It’s over. All you are doing now is hurting the party. Actually, forget I said that. Go right ahead keep on trucking. Go John McCain!

I trust you all had a great Memorial Day weekend and I hope you all took time out to think about the many men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

    Well, Al, once again we’re on the same page, except, of course, about John McCain.

    And did you see where the foam company also kicked in money for someone improperly using a product they made???

    That would be like someone suing me and Dart Foam company if they lit the cup on fire with a lighter in their car….

    Come on… Let’s get real….
