“Sex-Crazed Co-Eds Going Broke Buying Birth Control”
Now, here’s the story that started all this.
It’s by a guy name Craig Bannister at Cybercast News Service in a story on February 27th titled:
“Sex-Crazed Co-Eds Going Broke Buying Birth Control, Student Tells Pelosi Hearing Touting Freebie Mandate”:
“A Georgetown co-ed told Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s hearing that the women in her law school program are having so much sex that they’re going broke, so you and I should pay for their birth control. Speaking at a hearing held by Pelosi to tout Pres. Obama’s mandate that virtually every health insurance plan cover the full cost of contraception and abortion-inducing products, Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke said that it’s too expensive to have sex in law school without mandated insurance coverage. Apparently, four out of every ten co-eds are having so much sex that it’s hard to make ends meet if they have to pay for their own contraception, Fluke’s research shows.”
And of course what’s sex if the ends aren’t meeting?
Andrew Breitbart R.I.P.
I was so shocked to read that Breitbart had passed suddenly, that I went to his website to see if it was some sick hacker joke. But, there it was:
In Memoriam:
Andrew Breitbart
(1969-2012)
Andrew passed away unexpectedly from natural causes shortly after midnight this morning in Los Angeles.
We have lost a husband, a father, a son, a brother, a dear friend, a patriot and a happy warrior.
He was a crusading journalist, doing the job the biased MSM refuses to do. I will miss him and hope his organization continues his needed work.

Murmuration?
What? Murmuration?
Yes, it means the synchronous movement of living beings to move in the same direction or change direction in a way that’s faster than one could communicate even when far apart. In Portland we see the phenomenon at Chapman school each year as the Vaux’s swifts entertain with their swooping and turning and then disappear for the night down the tall chimney.
Recently James Dines has written of murmuration:
Dines headlines his just-published 2012 annual forecast issue “The Coming Worldwide Murmurations”.
He argues—as he has long done—that markets, and even social movements, are substantially driven by similar, little-understood principles of collective dynamics.
He thinks that these movements may be driven by fiat currencies and my be responsible for “Arab Springs,” possible revolution in China and even the U.S.!
You can listen to the latest from James Dines at King World News.

Happy Thanksgiving!
I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving and pause a moment to reflect on the blessings you’ve received. I hope you ask each around your table, “What are you thankful for?”
I am thankful for my health and my wife’s and our family’s health; for the love of my wife, Beverly, and Ralph the dog. I am thankful for my yellow bus job and the checks each month from social security. I am thankful for two great daughters and two great grandkids; that we all have a home that is warm and there is food enough for us all. I am thankful for over 23 years of sobriety. I am thankful for friends who put up with all my s–t and seem happy to have me around.
