Sparta the Mean Kitty
The videos above are from YouTube, and feature Sparta. Click on them to watch these clever videos his owner has posted on YouTube. He is an Egyptian Mau, though he looks like a Bengal. (Bengals are a cross between an Asian Leopard cat and a domestic shorthair). In one video, you'll notice how Sparta fetches. (it's because they are VERY smart). I Hope you enjoy these short clips.
(PS. Sometimes weird videos will appear. Refresh the browser until the kitties show up).
The Huffington Post: Bill Maher's ninth stand-up special airs this Saturday on HBO, and we have an exclusive clip! In the special, Maher's going to address whether the "Great Recession" is really over; the fake patriotism of the right wing; what goes on in the mind of a terrorist; why Obama needs a posse instead of the secret service; the drug war; Michael Jackson; getting out of Iraq and Afghanistan; racism; the Teabagger movement; religion; the healthcare fight; why Gov. Mark Sanford will come out looking good, and how silly it is to ask "Why do men cheat?"; and why comedy most definitely didn't die when George Bush left office. As a sneak peek, check out Bill take on god and Rocky all in the same punchline. Video: Exclusive preview: Bill Maher
I don't know if you are familiar with Bill Maher, but I find him fascinating. He's had numerous specials on HBO, and I highly recommend you watch some of them. Though I don't agree with his outlook on God, he is right on so many levels.
Clark Howard tells about billions of dollars in unclaimed money.
I don't know if you are familiar with Clark Howard. I used to listen to his radio show, and he's a financial genius. He started when he was young, and is now a millionaire. His range of knowledge is vast, encompassing all aspects of finance, from loans, banks, investments, how to save, where to look etc. If you get a chance to listen to him, do. I have been fascinated by his devotion to being prudent when it comes to money.
Using Sarah Palin's defense of Rush Limbaugh against her, last night Stephen Colbert proudly pronounced that "Sarah Palin is a f--king retard." After mocking Palin's speech at the Tea Party Convention (taking the obligatory jabs at the notes on her hand) Colbert moved on to Palin's reaction to Rahm Emanuel's use of the word "retard." Palin not only called for his Emanuel's firing, but also defended Rush Limbaugh's use of the word, deeming it acceptable because it was satire...Read More and Watch the Video: Colbert/Palin Story and Video Comedy Central
I just can't help it. Anything that exposes Sarah Palin as the doofus that she is...well is fair game.
" I know most of you are dog lovers and will help. Our neighbor has lost her Chihuahua puppy and is desperate to find him. Yesterday, she was sitting on the couch watching TV and realized he was gone. She called out to him and he didn't respond. She then noticed the back door was open. She has been putting up signs everywhere in an effort to have him returned. Thanks for your help".
I apologize if this offends anyone, but get over it. It IS funny
