Today is National Gummi Worm Day
Another in Dave's long line of Dumbass commercial promotions. Ohh, the inanity!
Proof that if you come up with a fool-proof solution, Mother Nature will come up with a bigger fool. Returning from a shopping trip just now, what did I see fluttering across 3 lanes of traffic, but a reusable shopping bag!
What did they do, put it on the roof of their car before driving off?
Well, this might put a crimp in Kent Thiry's political future: https://coloradosun.com/2021/07/15/kent-thiry-davita-indicted/
Didn't Rick Scott serve as CEO of a health care provider not only indicted but found guilty only to run successfully for governor and senator?
The story is clarified at PolitiFact
if you don't want to go read it, the short summary: The company under Scott billed various federal medical programs. The company was indicted. Scott stepped down. The company eventually settled: "Columbia/HCA agreed to pay $840 million in criminal fines, civil damages and penalties."
I did some super-quick googling, and also believe Scott was not indicted personally but the company of which he was the CEO was fined. From Wikipedia:
Just another day in America First land (and your daily reminder that Gaetz still sits on the House Judiciary Committee):
Matt Gaetz hired legal firm used by Jeffrey Epstein and El Chapo, campaign report shows
If I know El Chapo, he's trying to distance himself from any association with those two!
I'm thinking the Gaetz selection criteria focused less on El Chapo and [alleged] mobsters, more on the expertise developed with
Doubtful.
Gaetz is accused of sex with a minor and trafficing, because she was a minor.
But sex with a minor hardly ever results in criminal conviction or even end of career. It would appear his best defense is the Judge Moore non-defense defense.
BLOTD . . .
(biggest laugh of the day)
That huge I-76 nutter billboard (on the north side of the interstate about halfway between Wiggins and Fort Morgan) which now reads:
Someday I'd really like to thank that landowner for all the chuckles he's given me over the years! This one is by far the best.
This one?
With the eastand west facing signs?
If so, this is its latest iteration. It got vandalized so often that they were leaving the sign to deteriorate for a while. Last I saw a couple of years ago, it was “God bless the Americn flag”, which is fairly anodyne.
Not sure, dunno? Maybe.
This latest billboard is between Wiggins and Fort Morgan — probably 20ish miles east of Roggen?
The “god bless . . . the flag” billboards are down. Maybe god retired from the quilt-blessing business?
You’re right, Dio. A big belly laugh every time I drive by. They’re big enough you’d think they might be targets for MTG’s Jewish Space Laser villains?
I have a suggestion for their next version:
