    Ye gods -- you read that, and then consider that your average voter sheeple take heed of endorsements of politicians by sports stars and entertainment stars.

    Actually, it explains a lot.

    I like it.

    Not because it makes me smart but because it doesn't make me not smart.

    I know that when in public speaking you can get a little ahead of yourself and say things that don't make sense. I would suspect that even those persons who said these; would get a giggle out of it.


    The one that it outstanding for me is this one,

    "Your food stamps will be stopped effective March 1992 because we received notice that you passed away. May God bless you. You may reapply if there is a change in your circumstances."
    --Department of Social Services, Greenville , South Carolina

    It tells me that the Department of Social Services is putting in a just in case you have not passed away clause.

    Loved them all. But in all fairness to Mariah Carey, the quote cited was lifted in entirety from a satire, and was never voiced by Carey.

    There is crime in general that is just plain stupid.

    There isn't crime much dumber than carjacking. Well maybe carjacking from a place from where a telephone is just steps away. (i.e. A Petrol station)

    No it gets worse, really.

    Last night on the evening news there was a report of a carjacking attempt at a Petrol station. The carjacking was foiled by a local city bus driver leaning on his horn and . . .

    the car being carjacked was a stick shift and . . .

    the carjacking idiots couldn't drive a stick shift.


    If there were a crime for being stupid, this was it.
