Another Life Lesson
About 20 years ago, a group of us went to Las Vegas to help out the local economy. As with any group, getting a consensus to do anything is very much like herding cats or blogging.
Suzanne Somers was the IT girl at the time, so some of us wanted to go to her show one night. Many didn't want to go that night. So the ones that did, did and the ones that didn't, didn't. The next night same thing except the groups were now reversed. CRAZY! I'm really a getalong kinda guy, so I ended up going to see Ms Somers twice. Such punishment. Did you know she is a tiny thing? maybe 5'1" or 5'2" tops.
What was interesting to me on the first night, about ten minutes into her act, some Guy screams out "Ooooh Baby!! You make my ice cream melt !!! " and then another guy shouts out " Ohhhh Me Too !!!! " Somers said something Mae Westish and the crowd roars.
Next night the exact same thing happened. To think this Huckle Berry from Houston would have gone home thinking there are some really rabid Suzanne Somers fans out there, had I not gone to back to back shows and discovered these moaners were faking it. Hmmmm, moaners..... fakin' it...... ? Back to my story.
Yesterday one of the local talk radio guys was playing a sound byte (is it byte or bite, who cares deal with it, my dictionary is on the other side of the room.) of an incident when Obama was campaigning. An Obama acolyte swooned in the crowd. Barrocky made the call "Is There A Doctor In The House !?" " Make some room, medical people are on the way" "Give'em some air" ' We're All Right" ' They're Just A Little Over Come By The Situation " chuckle, chuckle.
Amazing right? Then the radio guy plays sound bytes from about 8 different Obama campaign venues, EXACT SAME THING. The Fainter was at all 8 spots. Probably not the exact same fainter. For $50 you can get a local Acorn person to do anything. Ahhhh the Messiah !
The New Obama Miranda Rights.
Las Vegas Shills at Gaming Tables, Lounge Acts, and Presidential Campaigns, can and will be used against You. You will not have the right to an Attorney. If you don't have the money for an Attorney, you're sooo screwed anyway. Do you understand any of these rights? Tough.
Thus Endth The Lesson.

Just a small observation of Obama's necktie worn at his speech. British Style (stripes left to right). Is this a dual citizenship "in your face"?
