A little piece of truth presented in a humorous way, to help you smile as you go about your day!
Welcome back and I am sure you have been counting down the hours waiting for today's "Random Bits of Truth" column. We survived day one without trauma and now it is onto day two!
I am sorry to say that George Carlin the comedian died yesterday in California. He is being remembered for seeing how much he could get away with before he was censored. I would like to say a few things about George in tribute but they would all be censored. So I will just say, @#$% ^%&* (*)&^ @#$% and #$@!
Hillary Clinton and Barrack Obama are joining forces and hands to unify the Democratic Party. I thought Hillary was just holding Barrack's hand as he crossed the street. It is good to have someone over 21 along in case Barrack gets carded trying to buy some beer. Oh, I am not bitter about Hillary's loss, I just don't trust anyone that looks younger than 30 and has an idea but no concrete plan on how to get there. It's like leaving home to travel to a place that you have never been before without MapQuest. Go Democrats!
Poor Celine Dion received the "worst cover song of all time" from Total Guitar Magazine for her "sacrilegious tune" of AC/DC's "You Shook Me All Night Long." The image of sweet Celine singing such a raunchy song is too much of a stretch for me. It would be like Donny Osmond singing Rod Stewart's,"Tonight's the Night." The song genre needs to match the style of the musician! After all, I wouldn't release, Mary Poppins singing "Rehab" either. That's a "No, no, no!" Some things just need to stay untainted. Check out this YouTube link of Celine doing a song she should never do again:
Good news about long-term oil prices is being reported on Yahoo. It seems that since the demand for oil is less, the prices may come down eventually. I said "may" of course. But the short-term might be dicey for a while as we all wait to see the damage to the corn/ethanol crop from the mid-western floods. Just so I never have to buy one of those ugly Prius cars, I can keep pushing my Escalade around town.
I am sorry if my honesty offends you. If I did not offend you I apologize and urge you to return to my column again tomorrow and I certainly will give it my best shot. You see sometimes, someone, somewhere has to stand up and speak the truth.
My friend "Bill", William Shakespeare once said "The world is a tragedy to those that feel and a comedy to those that think." I find humor to be painfully honest and so did George Carlin. R.I.P.
