Roswell: Now I Understand..

Can't confirm veracity, but interesting none-the-less...

July 1947 historical event

I thought you would enjoy this little blurb of nonfiction:

Many will recall that on July 8, 1947 witnesses claimed that an unidentified object with five aliens
aboard crashed onto a sheep and cattle ranch outside Roswell, New Mexico.

This is a well known incident that many say has long been covered up by the U.S.Air Force and the Federal Government.

However, you may NOT know that in the month of March 1948 exactly nine months after that historic day.

Albert Arnold Gore, Jr., Hillary Rodham, John F. Kerry, William Jefferson Clinton, Howard Dean
Nancy Pelosi, Dianne Feinstein, Charles E. Schumer and Barbara Boxer were born.

See what happens when aliens breed with sheep. This piece of information may clear up a lot of
things.

Teenager in 1901 Made Uncanny Tech Predictions

A website, Paleo-Future, describes itself as "A look into the future that never was." Fascinating stuff on the site. Sample prediction from 1901:

You may go to Europe in six hours by "The Submarine Line." The House-keepers will have an easy time; the dishes will be washed by electricity. In the year 2001, you will not see a single horse on Broadway, New York and only autos will be seen.

You Think YOU Had a Tough Week?

ATHENS, Tenn. — After being struck by a car Sunday and beaten by an intruder Monday, Tony Hicks returned to a hospital a third consecutive day when police investigating a convenience store robbery shot him.

The unrelated sequence of hospitalizations was not the first time police have dealt with Hicks, whose criminal record includes a shootout with police, Detective Bill Matthews said.

A police statement said Hicks was shot after making "aggressive movements" toward officers who wanted to question him about the Tuesday night robbery near his apartment.

KARMA... It works! This guy has a bit of a rap sheet....

MY 4th of July: The Good The Bad and The Ugly

I was happily lazing my way thru the 4th when my son walks up to me and asks "Dad, can I set up a lemonade stand?" My heart leapt with joy... my son is picking up on my entrepreneurial legacy and wants to EARN his dough. I looked outside, at a bird who was hooked up to an IV machine getting a dose of fluids, in the 101 degree heat. It was 11 AM.
"Sure!" I said. Oh man... a hot day... but I gotta support this kind of initiative... We spent $9 on lemonade, ice and cups... picked a good spot, and two hours later, we'd made.. $9. But I'd had a very good time making the signs with him, and tossing out little educational terms like marketing, advertising and location, location, location.

We went and saw "Ratatouille" and I might have enjoyed it more than him, although he was often doubled over in laughter. VERY good job, Pixar. Thanks for making the movies I wanted to see when I was a kid.

Then we went to our strategically parked car on the roof of the Valencia Town Center Mall parking garage, to watch the fireworks. Perhaps next year, we'll get a little further away, as fireworks shows are too damn loud that close..I don't know what was worse: the bangs, or the BIKERS constantly using foul language even though they were surrounded by dozens of families with kids. They reinforced every negative stereotype I've EVER had about bikers, and started brand new ones for my kid to believe. Idiots. Left the parking lot behind a guy who had taken great pains to put a ghetto-like lift kit on.... a Chevy Corsica... a Corsica? There is still one on the road? That was one of the worst cars ever made... My town, Valencia.. is turning into frakkin' Los Angeles slowly, before my eyes.... I hope it slows down, because Valencia is still far better than anywhere else in this state to live.

You hear a song on the radio... it rocks... but the damn DJ doesn't tell you who it is.. Next time you hear it, press the button on this pocket device, it records a snippet of the music. Plug it into your PC when you get home, somehow it magically dials up Uncle Cliff, and he figures out the tune title/artist... Cheap at only $20!

Golf Cruiser Makes Me Want To Resume Golfing

The new 2007 Golf Cruiser is not your papa's golf cart, but more like Tiger Wood's kick-ass three-wheeler. It's electric, running on a 1000W engine with an upgraded 36 volts battery that gives you 8 to 10 hours of operation. And although the top speed is 9.3mph, it can carry 397 pounds of gear. I still prefer the strap-on beer cruiser, because anything with "beer" and "strap-on" in its name instantly gets my attention.
