BIFF, BAM, THINK SPAM
Just returned from three days in Las Vegas. No, I did not go to gamble. I look at all that construction there and I know where the money came from; it came from the pockets of millions of losers, losers, losers.

A friend who lived there passed away, another WWII veteran gone, a former Navy man who flew radar patrol along the Atlantic Coast searching out submarines. Long hours of lonely and dangerous patrol work in the PBY's, amphibious planes. He was 88. So, each day there are fewer of us left.

Upon my return home, I found 257 emails in my mailbox, and only ten were legit. What a waste of time each and every day to sort through all the crap!

Here they're so concerned about the telephone solicitors and I'd say I get maybe five or six calls a week, with nothing more offensive than well, telephone solicitors soliciting to switch my telephone. Congress has spent the time, money and effort now, and passed a law about what is essentially a minor problem. Yet, in all the calls I have received over the years, not one has mentioned penis enlargement pills or tricking young women into sexual acts and then photographing them while they're doing so, and although annoying, it really ain't that bad. Computer porn, nudity, scams and other forms of computer generated email is far, far more insidious, treacherous, and vile than the problem of telephone solicitors.

As much as I hate (yes, hate) Fidel Castro, at least by limiting the use of computers in Cuban homes and schools, he has kept that drivel out of the children's way, and Cubans out of harm's way. That is the only positive thing I can see about that s.o.b.'s administration. Everything else is negative.

One of these days I am going to get back to the subject of the benefits of Infirmative Action.

Supposing Sammy Sosa had had five runs added to his score, as part of Affirmative Action?
Supposing Jackie Robinson had had the benefit of a "free home run" each game he played?
Or Tiger Woods was given a six handicap, four for his father and two because his mother is from Korea?
