Another Slow News Day
The BBC alerted me that the new baby’s great grandmother and great grandfather dropped by for a visit. With a two-year-old as well as the new baby, I get a feeling that her mom and dad would probably just as soon take a nap as deal with the visitors.
The death toll keeps climbing as they reach the more remote areas of Nepal. It is currently above 7,500.
In the provincial elections in Canada, the Liberals have maintained their hold on the government on Prince Edward Island, but the Conservative hold on Alberta is looking very shaky.
The UK is having national elections, but the real question appears to be will anyone bother to vote? That’s the reason the BBC has spent so much space on Princess Charlotte – no one is reading their election coverage, because voters apparently are ready for a “none of the above” election.
So a brain surgeon who has never held elected office, a woman with the same experience in public office but who trashed HP, and a current version of Elmer Gantry have joined the Republican Presidential comedy revue. “None of the above” is currently leading this race as well.

And to top it all off, one of the clowns running for President demanded of the Pentagon, “Are you planning to implement martial law over Texas using Special Forces as the vanguard for Chinese troops hidden in secret tunnels under Walmart stores?”
The pained expression on those generals’ faces had to be seen to be believed. It’s a wonder they managed to be polite.
Geez – everybody knows that the tunnels under the Malwarts are sweatshops filled with Chinese factory workers. They were built by the drug cartels as part of the deal to launder drug money through the Malwart financial system. 😉
