Dizzy’s Ten Post Round-Up
by Dizzy Dezzi
It’s Monday and it’s April Fool’s Eve. I am currently planning what minor prank I shall play on my children. I’m also steeling myself for whatever pranks might be planned for me…
Rest assured, Uncle Jay has a run-down of the political hi-jinx of the past week: Uncle Jay Explains the News - March 31, 2008
Let’s take a gander at the hi-jinx in today’s Ten Post Round-Up:
1: If this is the free-market conservatives preach about, I’d say they’d got it all wrong…
Countrywide executives showered with even more money–AMERICAblog
2: Could we be on the verge of another “Big Bang”? Apparently, some scientists want to try out a new gizmo that creates black holes. Somehow, I think Mother Nature might have a problem with that…
Uh…maybe sometimes “Because we can” isn’t enough of a reason to do something–Brilliant at Breakfast
3: Keep your opinions to yourself if you encounter other shoppers at Best Buy…
Best Buy calls copper on unsatisfied shopper–Channel Register
4: Now, if only GWB and his minions could honestly get choked up about the things that hurt the rest of America and not just themselves…
5: The war in Afghanistan and the war on drugs has unintended consequences for Afghan famers…
Newsweek: Afghan Farmers Forced To Sell Their Daughters To Pay Loans–The Huffington Post
6: The NCLB rules must be really tough! Principal threatens to kill his science teachers and himself!…
7: Most times, fact is so much more interesting than fiction. Is that “The Sound of Music”, I hear?…
Movie vs. Reality: The Real Story of the von Trapp Family–The National Archives
8: I knew it! I knew it! The Gays do have an agenda!…
9: Very interesting article on “thanks” and “gratitude”. Should the oppressed be grateful to their oppressors and/or for their oppression?…
10: I have the sad, miserable feeling that GWB and his henchmen would rather see the world swallowed up into a black hole than admit defeat by withdrawing troops from Iraq…
I know, I know…all the April Fools are in the White House!
294 días hasta el final de un error…
Peace.
(On an up-note, if we get sucked into a black hole, we’ll likely never know what hit us…)

Eh. Mother Nature makes tons of black holes. I don’t think she’ll mind if we pop a few out.
The little ones evaporate rather quickly, anyhow …
*off to read*
You know the story of that little Afghani girl is sad, but at least we’re winning the War on Drug.
(April fools!!!)

I plan to bury my head under the covers for April Fools Day because there are so many fools about everyday these days.
Well said Pamela.
