Obama Perks

An alert listener sent this list, Top 10 perks of the UPCOMING Obama presidency to Jerry Agar last week, and the two of us had a blast coming up with our own. Here goes:

• After a time people figure out that the president DOESN"T solve all their problems and some of them actually work to fill their own gas tanks and pay their own mortgage.
  
  
• Jerimiah Wright can come out of retirement. Michelle can take off the duct tape and wear lipstick again.
  
  
• We now know that an empty suit can get up and walk and talk.
  
  
• No more whining about how the election was stolen. (Notice how all the machines were accurate this time? Apparently Diebold is no longer capable of rigging elections.)
  
  
• Children inspired to learn that they can grow up to win the highest office in the world without any actual accomplishments.
  
  
• Comedian Bias: An end to all the "Why can't we get a Brother in the White House Jokes. Oh look, he DIDN'T put spinners on Air Force One. Aunt Zetuni and Brother George are going back to the Glory days of Democrat families, like Billy Carter and Roger Clinton. Lots of fun stuff rhymes with Obama.
  
  
• America made even safer for unapologetic domestic terrorists.
  
  
• No more wood splitting, brush clearing or golfing. Joggiing track replaced with a basketball court.
  
  
• World finally learns that socialism fails no matter who runs it.
  
  
• Even I can afford to invest in the stock market now.
  

Incidentally, there will still be a Kidders show this Thursday, November 13th, at Zanies in the Pheasant Run Resort (sans Jerry & Maura). 8PM Tickets still just $8.90. 630-584-6342

Roasting Obama

Here's a great video news story, from the segment on the Barack Obama Show we did on WLS.

New Health Hazard

Those who have been following my intermittent threads, know that Second Hand Smoke Legislation is one of my major peeves. The risk from exposure is so minor that only the most paranoid should concern themselves.

In previous posts, I mentioned that the health risk from working in a smoky bar is less than the health risk from, a couple bags of microwave pop corn, or a can of pop every day.

In an Editorial for Jerry Agar's Blog over on the WLS website, I explore a new threat that needs to be banned from all workplaces:

Cell phones!
