Trip Preparation

I am getting excited about my vacation that starts on Friday afternoon.  I will be driving to Saguache, Colorado.  Part of my time in Colorado will be spent in Fort Garland for Blanca Fest the following weekend.  Hopefully I won’t break my ankle this time and I’ll be able to partake in the hike that precedes the Blanca Fest festival.

For those who are interested in meeting up, I will be in Cleveland on Friday, Chicago on Saturday, and Grand Rapids, Nebraska on Sunday before arriving at Saguache early Monday afternoon.  Driving means I won’t have many of the problems I had last year.  But it also means I won’t be tweeting as often or looking at as much porn as I normally do.  I already have my camping gear packed and will have the rest of my stuff packed Thursday evening.

It turns out that the vacation route is nowhere near route I will be taking for the Affordable Entertainment Awareness walk-a-thon I will be doing starting in October.  It’s  also nowhere near the walk-a-thon I held last year in Liechtenstein.

The workload this week is rather heavy through Wednesday.  Thursday and Friday should be light and I am hoping to hit the road by 2PM Friday.  I will be too busy to host the radio show this Tuesday, but the show will left in what I hope will be fine hands.  The next two shows following that (August 17 and 24) will be on location from Fort Collins, Colorado.

It’s off to bed.  I have a lot to do, but not a lot of time to do it.  See you in America!

Why Rio Won the Olympics

Don’t blame Chicago not getting the 2016 Summer Olympics on President Obama.  Although I am not a supporter of the President on many issues, he gave an inspiring speech as to why Chicago should host the Olympics.  Chicago has a lot going for it:  The Magnificent Mile, Wrigley Field, and Deep-Dish Pizza (for those of you who are into that – real pizza is flat) are just a few things Chicago has to offer.  Rio de Janeiro doesn’t have any of these things.  Rio has one thing that Chicago doesn’t have:  An overabundance of hotties.

Studies show that more people travel for hotties than for deep-dish pizza.

Congratulations to Rio de Janeiro and to Brazil for hosting the 2016 Summer Olympics.   Hopefully in 2020, the Olympic Committee will vote with their heads and not with their pants.

Chicago, D.C.

The following is an editorial written by Independent write-in candidate for President Ahmnodt Heare.

Senator Barack Obama promised change.  He promised change in how things were going to be done in Washington.  It appears there will be change in Washington after all.  He is in the process of turning Washington into another Chicago.

Chief-of-Staff designee Rham Emanuel ratted out Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich.  He did not do it because it was the right thing to do.  He did it because there was no promise that Obama would get his “cut.”

I know this is a strong allegation and I cannot prove this is what happened, but I can paint a picture without using lead paint.  Chicago has had a history of corruption that dates back to Prohibition.  Buying a politician in Illinois is as easy as waking up.  I think they might even teach classes on how to do it.

I was glad to hear Barack Obama call for Blagojevich’s resigination.  Many politicians call for corrupt politicians to resign until they become the corrupt politician.  Senator Ted Stevens did not resign.  He just missed being reelected in spite of the turmoil he put himself in by getting free renovations done on his home.

The economy is in recession.  People don’t have the money to buy off politicians.  The sooner they realize this in Chicago and Washington, the sooner we can spend money on reviving the economy and restore brothels so women won’t have to go to bed hungry.

We don’t need to change Washington into another Chicago.  Michael Jordan tried it when he played for the Washington Wizards.  Washington didn’t become Chicago then, and it won’t become Chicago now.
