Where did 9 Trillion Dollars go? Fed's Answer? HAHA, about that...

If you had 9 trillion dollars to account for, wouldn't you know where it went? Not if you're the fed... in fact, you're answer can be "I don't know." Knowing that you're not going to be audited anyways. Man, with this kind of oversight why don't they make all Americans Trillionaires (inflation aside :-P).

The below link has a fine video of a fed representative saying just that: I don't know.

Cops doing bad things

I think we can all attest to seeing police officers sleeping: http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/story?section=news/local&id=6808063

Police officers driving through red lights and making illegal U-Turns: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aD6AefB0uG8

Police officers illegally parking in front of a fire hydrant to have lunch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DytIyFgtvKI&feature=PlayList&p=A6C15716D2EAE690&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=23

On-duty police officers playing solitare in heir cruiser: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySxgcVinICU (blurry video) but here is a picture of another

But I really enjoy the end of the first published article where they make these kids who caught the cop, into bad guys with the following statement: "What may have started out as a joke could cost the officer his job." Shame on you kids for doing your civic duty and watching the watchers!! THE SHAME!!

Government Spending: Charlotte and The Amazing Technicolor Garbage Cans


In case you've ver looked at one of those awful brown garbage cans and thought "Man, this thing really needs expensive artwork plastered to it!" Charlotte may be the place for you. Charlotte plans to spend over $15,000.00 to make a bunch of garbage cans into garbage eating works of art. To make things worse, they are hideous and worthy of being tossed into, ironically enough, another garbage can. While this may seem completely ludicrous it is still better than the 2 trillion dollar federal initiative to stick tiny decorative American flags into all piles of animal feces throughout the country. Nothing screams America like a garbage can with a crappy mosaic on it.


Meanwhile on an unrelated note, hundreds of Charlotte teachers will be receiving their pink slips because of a lack of funding. It seems some clown stole a bunch of money and is attempting to decorate garbage cans with it! To get more on this story by clicking http://www.charlotteobserver.com/education/story/711716.html
