In the name of God

Anybody heard of this? I hadn't, until now, which is not surprising I guess. It has a Wisconsin legislator's name attached to it (Sensenbrenner), which is not surprising considering what happened the other day. Beyond what your read, there's nothing more for me to say.

In other news, I went to a celebration on behalf of the TAA held at the capitol today. "100 years of civil service," was the title. Various supervisors of state agencies were recognized upon after the governor's short speach. It was quite ironic, considering our "Democratic" governor has proposed cutting 10,000 state jobs coupled with transforming positions into LTE (limited term employee) positions and shelling out money to a private agency to study the feasibility of cutting all state custodial work (to be sold to a corporation). That's where the money's at nowadays my friend - running a consulting agency where you get paid to tell people to cut jobs... very enticing... and evil... and non-accomplishing. "Continue your job as a consulter, and continue to produce life-saving results and lemonade for all of humanity." Lemonade? Okay.

Also, I was approached by some Latinos selling ice cream from push carts near my house. I've never seen that before, and if I had a dollar I would have bought one. Also, just a second ago, as I typed, a guy from "Perez Auto" tried to sell me some coupons or something. He said I could get FREE (free) oil changes, tire rotations, etc., all with one simple security deposit of $60. I didn't really get their scheme, but he did show me a handful of checks and money, which made me suspicious considering that's how most schemes start. Anyway, I told him that I already have a "plan," and a "palm" tree in my apartment. Also I have only underwear on, so if you come to my door, expect delays. Point 2: Mexicans are looking hard for money in Madison. I guess it's possible that the state is also taking action on illegal aliens, disallowing them from making money in traditional fashions. Signing off...

Repeal presidential term limits? Great! The other one that we need to repeal is the one that says that only native-born citizens can become president. Then the road will be clear for The Terminator to make real the plot of his films, which he has become convinced are true prophecy. Which they are.

It pays to buy their ice cream. Sometimes it's full of tequila.
