Cheerleader gets run over.
If only youtube had slow motion so you could see the expression on her face.
AREA SCHOOLS UNDER FIRE
There is a story that has long been overlooked in the metro that is finally getting some attention regarding area schools and their dropout rates. Take a bow KCMO & KCK school districts for achieving these amazing numbers.
KCMO
Southeast - 60% of the kids drop
Southwest Charter - 55% of the kids drop
Van Horn - Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner 66% drop
Central High - 58% drop
KCK
Harmon - 40% drop
Wyandotte - 56% drop
You almost have to try to be bad to hit these numbers
A WAY TO MAKE MONEY TODAY
A group of metro area orthodontists is offering a candy buy-back after Halloween.Orthodontists involved in Smiles Change Lives, a nonprofit organization that delivers medically-necessary orthodontic treatment to children from low-income families, are recognizing National Orthodontic Awareness Month by buying back kids' holiday loot for cash or other prizes.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So here is the scam.
1. Outsource your Trick or Treating to a bunch of illegal alien kids (if it works for farmers it can work for you too).
2. Pay them one piece of candy for every 5 that they gather.
3. Take the collected candy back to the orthodontist and collect tax free cash.
This is a no brainer.
JACK ASS OF THE WEEK
I don't think anyone is going to top this guy so I am safe in putting this up on Wednesday. Warren Buffett said that he SHOULD pay more in taxes yesterday in a press conference. Thanks Warren, I am glad that you say that NOW after you have made your billions and all of your money is protected in offshore accounts and investments that you come out and say that. Nothing makes me feel better than sending 40% of my pay to the government.
I would like to ask Warren one question. How are the rest of us suppose to achieve financial wealth in the current system? If this jackass wants to pay more in taxes then he can move to Canada.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS
But this morning on KMBZ Gary Lezak said that he was dressing his dogs up for Halloween. The costumes of choice, a nurse and a princess. You can come to your own conclusions.
THE LADY OF RAGE
Hillary has now turned the war machine on her rivals in the socialist party and is attacking them for questioning her qualifications and her checkered past. Her fellow communist need to remember the famous last words of Vince Foster("Please don't kill me") and proceed with caution.

REPUBLICAN IDIOT
Monday, October 29, 2007 By Catherine Donaldson-Evansfox news
Parents in Connecticut might be the ones getting the report cards if a proposed plan makes the grade at a Manchester public school district.
Steven Edwards, a Republican member of the Manchester Board of Education who’s up for re-election Nov. 6, wants parents to be evaluated on a handful of what he says are objective measures — including whether their children have done the homework and eaten a good breakfast.
"I tried to design something modest [measuring] things that virtually everybody would agree parents should do to help their kids," Edwards said. "We don't have our staff making any subjective evaluations."
The idea has angered parents, and the local PTA vows to fight the plan.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is one of the worst ideas I have ever heard. Teachers can barely take care of themselves yet they are going to be grading parents? I can not believe that it is a Republican that is pushing this through.
TERRORIST VIDEO BLOOPERS
IF YOU ARE OFFENDED BY WOMEN SHOWING ANKLE THEN PLEASE DO NOT VIEW THIS VIDEO
Weekend Notes
1. Craig's visit has come and gone. A few hours spread out over a couple of days are not enough to get caught up after 2 years but we had a good time. He took full advantage of our weak dollar and is going to need another suitcase to haul his loot back home. Hopefully it doesn't take 2 years for him to visit again.
2. The BBQ Saturday Night went off without a hitch and the food turned out better than I expected especially considering my attentions were split. I believe I am one batch of Ribs away before I can consider them competition ready. The trick is getting them out of the smoke and into the foil at just the right time.
3. My sister Wendy made some great caramel apples that might of been the most unhealthy food item I have ever seen. You had to eat through 3 layers of sugar before you took your first bite of apple.
4. Boston won the World Series! Living in KC you have to have other teams to cheer for and being a Celtics fan my whole life I have always been a fan of all teams Boston (especially since I hate all teams in NY and Cali).
5. I am starting to believe that the Nintendo Wii doesn't exist. Why Nintendo has upped production to meet demand is beyond me. This is their one last chance to recapture a bulk share of the gaming market and yet you can't find one to buy.
6. Pizza Shoppee has now moved into my top 3 Pizza Places in town.
7. I will be spending most of my work week finalizing my Christmas list. Remember when these things were due at Thanksgiving? We haven't even carved pumpkins for Halloween yet and I am working on this thing.
8. Why is it that Time Warner Cable boxes no longer support the HDMI input? I hate Time Warner.
9. My brother and sister are in a race to get my old BROKEN recliner. I hope they plan on moving out before Thanksgiving because that thing has to go before we get our Christmas tree.
10. Kerry was sick all weekend. I am writing this down because she always tells me that she NEVER gets sick. I think I nursed her back to health yesterday because she felt "better" today.

FINALLY A REASON TO LIKE THE FRENCH
I laughed when I saw the shocked look on the interviewers face when he left. The journalist in this country feel like they are above everyone in the world and have a holier than thou attitude. The new leader of France is aware of this and the liberal bias that our journalist have and basically told her to F off. Had this leader of been antiamerican then they would of treated that interview completely different.
DEMOCRATS SHORTEN THEIR WORK WEEK
I am not sure how to take this story.
1. The less time they spend trying to turn our country into something Karl Marx would be proud of the better.
2. Are they going to keep their pay the same? Don't we all wish that we could just cut our own hours with the same pay to spend time with our families. This action is nothing more that a flat out robbery of our tax dollars that are used to pay their salaries, flights and living expenses.
I don't want to hear another Democrat in office complain about the direction of our country, the tax system and entitlements. This is great work ethic.
ALL OF THIS THE SAME WEEK THEY SAY THEY ARE GOING TO RAISE TAXES!
