Immigrants; President Obama; Youth; Happy Marriage; Women and Guns; Swimming Pools

Heavy rain and winds.. but temperature in the upper 40's.  Most of the snow is gone now.

Some more ramblings:

Home Town Sheriff riles the Ignorant

Southern Poverty Law Report:  Sheriff Thomas Hodgson (from my home area: Bristol County, Massachusetts) claims that 25 Americans a day are killed by undocumented immigrants... a claim that has been discredited... His claims caused 24 people to dress up in Revolutionary War garb and picket the White House. 

These cretins made up signs  condemning President Obama.. some said: "Hang the traitor!" and "We've got rope!"  and "Don't snap his neck, you watch him choke to death."  Come on, guys... this is the President of the United States of America.  Pay him some respect.  Also, check your facts before you vent your spleen.

Fountains of Youth

A woman observed a little old man rocking in a chair on his porch.  She asked him:  "I couldn't help noticing how happy you look.  What's your secret?"

"Well," he replied, "I smoke 4 packs of cigarettes a day, drink a case of whiskey each week, eat lots of fatty food, and never exercise."

"Wow!"   she said, and how old are you?"

He replied: "23."

Happy Wife, Happy Life

Funny Paper: David Martin lists some advice from the Toronto Globe and Mail:

"Men are beginning to understand that doing housework... unprompted goes a along way to creating marital happiness.. Intimacy is not just for the bedroom, in other words, Foreplay can begin with a dish towel."

Women Love Guns

In Texas.. women who observe the open carry law, can buy Bra Holsters and also "gentle magazine loaders."

In Arizona, at a store I believe is called "The Well Armed Woman", ladies can purchase the "hottest" item, "the concealed carry purse."

Time for a Nice Warm Dip in the Pool?

Mental Floss:  Shaunacy Ferro answers the question: "Why do my eyes turn red in the pool?"

She sez: "It's all the nasty stuff .. urine, feces, sweat, dirt mixed with the chlorine.  When someone pees in the pool, for instance, the nitrogen in the urine combines with chlorine to form a chemical irritant called chloramine.  That's what makes your eyes turn red."
