30 years on air for David Letterman. He is an institution of comedy..

I’d be remiss if I didn’t say how important he has been in my life. I remember vaguely watching him as a kid (age 3 and 4 and maybe 5) .. I remember vividly watching him as a grade school kid and high schooler.. I repeated his jokes the next day because I knew no other kids stayed up that late …

I don’t watch much now,  though. Can’t say the show is nearly as imaginative as it once was.. or cutting edge. Or new and fresh. But 30 years on air in some capacity is meaningful and amazing. He is a legend of our time just as Carson was for the previous…

But I leave you tonight with this question.. did David Letterman perfect late night sarcasm or, by being so good at it, destroy the ability for anyone else to be sarcastic?

Earlier I posted a little story about a monkey boiled alive. Are people worthless too?

(Source: https://www.youtube.com/)

An inspection report from the United States Department of Agriculture has revealed that, back in July, New Jersey-based pharmaceutical company Bristol-Myers Squibb accidentally killed a crab-eating macaque monkey when it was left locked in its cage, which was run through the wash cycle

Ok I get it. Christians don’t think animals have souls and few people think that we are an interconnected species of life. While I disagree with the assertions just stated, I also say this: Regardless of whether an animal’s life is precious to you or not, is it not reprehensible to allow any life form to be boiled alive? That is a little more than acceptable, don’t you say?

Ayden really likes Teala

Just took Ayden's mind off of the Wiggles

I gave him a box of my OLDDDDD He-Man action figures. He is amazed with Teala. He ignored Skeletor. …

He-Man. Back when toys were not made in China, but instead Taiwan. 

I SWEAR THE WIGGLES ARE CONDITIONING MY SON'S BRAIN TO .. DO SOMETHING

Seriously, he’s been fixated on the TV for about 5 minutes—a record attention span for him.. Not sure what the deal is. I hope they are not planting messages in his brain to destroy something. It is scaring me..

Remember how the nation was outraged over ‘Jihad Jane’? .. she wasn’t real. It was a created actor used to generate terror fears.

…British media abuzz today with the prospects that global warming stopped. 

Really.

While we worried about global warming, did the earth begin cooling?
It’s an interesting thought, of course.. either way the globe paces a perilous future.

Don’t f&* with the peacemaker.. or hell reigns down?

Either way, this ‘peacemaker’ is the new surveillance truck Florida cops are going to use in Lauderdale.

"Warning: You are under video surveillance," reads the bold message on the side of the truck.

From the front bumper of the menacing vehicle, another sign taunts: “Whatcha gonna do when we come for you?”

Seriously? …

I thought we were going to use drones and just monitor people without them knowing! Now they are just going to monitor our every move and rub it in our face, too!?..  How anticlimactic. I was hoping for “MINORITY REPORT” in the future.. not TERMINATOR. Can’t they just have some class when they snip at our right to privacy? (hope my sarcasm translated in this text)..
