Well tonight I watched one of those cheesy low budget movies (Dilemma) from the early 90's and it was really a horrible cop show about this guy (on death row) is the only bone marrow match (in the whole world) for this little girl who is dying in the hospital. Well the Governor of California decides to take this guy off death row and has him transferred to the hospital to donate his bone marrow. Well anyway the guy ends up escaping because not one police officer in the whole movie could hit a broad side of a barn even if the bullets were the size of beach balls. I seen you tube videos that kids made that were better made than this movie. Saying this movie sucked would have been an understatement. Unfortunately with all bad movies you have to watch it to the end so you can crack jokes about how bad the movie is during the movie. One positive thing I would say there was some nudity (breasts) shown. So that almost helped me to want to continue to watch it. What can I say I am a guy and that is how we are wired.

Now onto other things.... I grilled some chicken that soaked in Italian dressing all day and made some mashed taters. I was proud of myself even though my wife kind of rolled her eyes at me because all I did was preheat and put the chicken on the grill and peeled and boiled the potatoes. I even mashed the potatoes well actually I used the electric beater. My wife said I should have used the hand masher but again I am a guy and that is not how we roll. I would have used the blender but my wife hid it from me. Damn she knows me way to well.

After dinner and that horrible movie I was reading a couple of articles on the internet and one article really just made me shake my head wondering if there is any politician in America that has at least a 6th grade math level. Well anyway here is a link to the article:

If this doesn't piss you off about how we Americans are being screwed (without petroleum or KY jelly) at the pump and our government is letting it happen then you must be brain dead. I never claim I have all the answers but it really doesn't take a math wiz to figure out that gas prices would go down if we just bought oil from ourselves at $83 a barrel instead of the $106 a barrel we pay now. WOW what a freaking concept, no wonder our government has us bankrupt and trillions of dollars in debt.

Another story I read that the North Korean government has been counterfeiting $50 & $100 bills:

Looks like our government has known about it for a few years, here is a link to a Congressional Research Service report by a guy named Dick K.Nanto that was done on June 12th 2009:  http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/row/RL33324.pdf

This guy reports directly to Congress and our elected politicians have done nothing to stop it !!
