Greenpeace Banner on Mount Rushmore

The group has a message but no tact when it comes to delivering it. In fact, they are more likely to turn people off than bring people on board.

Their most recent stunt, dropping a banner down Mount Rushmore.

The message — “America honors leaders not politicians: Stop Global Warming.”

“Doing what it takes to solve global warming demands real political courage,” said a Greenpeace USA deputy in a statement.

“If President Obama intends to earn a place among this country’s true leaders, he needs to show that courage, and base his actions on the scientific reality rather than political convenience.”

Our message to Greenpeace. Grow up! You want respect, want people to listen and pay attention? Try not being so radical. It doesn’t work.

Here we have another violent episode of law enforcement excess, from last Friday (July 25), when a policeman kicked a cyclist off his bicycle at the curb at 46th street and Seventh Avenue. Why? No one knows, but we can only speculate. Maybe the guy didn’t have the required lights or maybe he crossed a red light? No!

A Times-up! representative said that the cyclist in the video, Christopher Long, was arrested and held for 26 hours for attempted assault. What am I missing? Who assaulted, who? Can you see the step back the policeman had to take, to “properly” pull the guy down?

Because of his recent behavior, the 22-year-old Patrick Pogan lost his badge and gun (relief!!), and was placed on “desk duty pending the outcome of a department investigation.”

I’m not a fan of crowds and I’m not sure if I would enjoy walking the streets when the mass comes by, but this is obviously the wrong way of law enforcement.

This guy is a Darwin Award Candidate if there ever was one. Wall-E would be proud, too, to know that the bugs survived but the man almost didn’t, nor his apartment. Some knucklehead who was trying to get rid of bugs in his apartment sprayed for the pests.

Warning! Warning!

Idiot has flammable spray in the kitchen. The spray blew up the guy’s apartment, blew out the apartment’s front windows and triggered a fire that destroyed 80% of it. The guy didn’t get hurt and the bugs are unaccounted for.

Good grief! Shouldn’t there be warning labels on bug spray? “Test user for Darwin Award Candidacy Before Allowing Purchase.”

In any event, the guy is still roaming to and for seeking whom else he might be able to destroy. Can you imagine living above this fellow?

(honey oozes out of the walls)

The knucklehead noticed something coming out of his walls and he realized it was honey after tasting the oozing liquid on the wall. Turns out there was a huge bee hive behind the wall. Don’t know about you, but I’m not tasting things that are coming out of my wall.

“I came over here and dipped my finger in it and tasted it. Sure enough, it was honey coming out of the wall,” Jones said.

The bees were removed with a vacuum. SSsssuuuuccckkkkk!!!

“There’s no hive,” beekeepers said. “There’s no queen bee, so they’ll find their way out.”

I guess Jones knew how not to get rid of bees but I really wonder does he know anything about animal rights ?

Yesterday I wrote about a guy who fell off a cliff into a beehive and was a whole lot worse for it.

There’s another couple that was killed when they fell off a cliff in PA. Are these folks the kind that Obama was talking about?

The couple was loaded up on cough syrup.

The cops investigated their deaths at first as a homicide thinking they were pushed, fell or jumped. Now, it’s been ruled an accident. The slip marks (not to be confused with skid marks that appeared in their pants on the way down) gave the cops a clue.

The girl fell 16 feet and fractured her skull. The fellow went after her but slipped and fell 39 feet and broke his neck. Missy had four times the normal dosage of cough syrup in her blood. Bubba had 30 times the normal dosage.

What I want to know is who’s going to clean up the mess these two left on the side of the cliff?

Yesterday I wrote How Not to Lower Gas Prices.

Today…part 2.

A couple in Dartmouth decided they would beat the system by hoarding some gasoline in their apartment.

Fumes ignited from the gasoline that was stored in a utility closet and sent residents from eight units fleeing for their lives.

Firemen were on it, and the sprinklers worked well to extinguish the jugs of gasoline that had been covered with cloth rags.

Are we sure Obama wasn’t talking about people in MA, too?

The whole apartment came dangerously close to a vapor explosion.

It wouldn’t have lowered the gas prices overall, there would just be a few less people lining up at the gas pimps, er, pumps.

Some knucklehead, in his 40s maybe, fell 85 feet off a cliff and landed in a bee hive.

Talk about crashing a party, or dropping in unexpectedly.

The bees didn’t take to the invasion.

They used him for a pin cushion. The swarm was strong enough to knock him over, then covered him completely.

The first thing that came to his mind “My God, I left my cell phone in the car.”

What was he going to do, call their mommies?

In his nose, his eyes, his mouth, his ears…and headed for other holes and crevices that in hindsight, I am sure he was glad he had covered.

Cops backed off for fear of being attacked.

The fellow has lots of time to pull out bee stingers while he heals from a shattered wrist, three broken ribs, a broken arm, a broken toe and 40 staples in his head to heal wounds from the bee stings.

Animal rights? I am not arguing with the bees. You tell the little buzzers they don’t have any rights!

There’s a goof ball lady up the street, relatively speaking, from me who has decided to protest the high gas prices here in California. Protesting is a hobby in these parts.

She decided she would make a statement by trying to set the restrooms of two gas stations on fire. The 64-year old woman told police, “I wanted to take a stand.”

The same woman was spotted at a McDonalds’ carrying eight logs. Presumably she was taking those logs to the restrooms, not bringing them out.

She did not cause damage to the gas stations; just caused a stink.

The grandma told police she woke up that morning and decided to do something about high gas prices.

That’ll do it. Deplete the supply. It lowers gas prices every time.

A swarm of bees was infesting his utility shed. So, he put a glass full of gasoline on some towels where the bees were hanging out.

He turned, walked away and “Whooosh!!” the shed caught fire.

Firemen, wife and one-year old kid rescues, and $80,000 worth of damage later, the bees were gone, most of them, and so was his utility shed.

The auto mechanic, who says he had been educated on gasoline flash points figures the pilot light on the hot-water heater was at fault. And, we are reminded that educated and learned are not the same thing, too!

The side of the rented house where they lived was burnt and the innards (we say that down south) was filled with soot.

When all was said and done, the surviving bees buzzed off to see what other mischief they might be able to cause elsewhere?

Mullen said, “Looking at all this, there might have been a better way.”

You don’t say?
