Colorado Republican Delegates

This Republican delegate selection in Colorado is really suspect. The GOP Colorado Executive Committee in 2015 in a little publicized move voted to NOT let the voters decide which candidate should be supported at the convention.

To me this reeks of bad faith. You have a certain few who will be kingmakers instead of the people. And those kingmakers gave ALL the delegates to Cruz in Colorado even though the popular sentiment in Colorado was leaning toward Trump.

 If all states did this we would no longer have a say in the candidates and would be just given two that were crowned by the party elites to battle it out. This to me is not a good development. I don't agree with Trump on hardly anything but I have to say he got a raw deal in Colorado.

However this is funny.

If you believe this I've got a bridge to sell you....

Igor Oystacher has been accused of spoofing the futures market by placing orders and then canceling them in milliseconds to create demand or create sellers out of the rest of the market. His explanation is:

Outlining his defense for the first time in an April 1 court filing, lawyers said that Oystacher, a competitive speed chess player, has exceptional reaction-time skills and a customized computer mouse that make him faster than most humans at executing trades.

I'm not a computer genius but cancelling orders in milliseconds to me is not reaction time skills or some super mouse but most likely a planned computer algorithm. Reading further though it doesn't look like he used it in the correct way but then he might have been on fishing expedition to see if anyone was watching before he tried his real trades.

The Wall Street Journal is the tell.....

These CEOs are scary. I walk past a gang banger; I don't even flinch. But I see a white dude with a Wall Street Journal, I haul ass. Cutting through the projects, you might lose what you have on you that day, but I ain't never been mugged of my future. No thug ever said, "Give me your 401K. I want your college fund, your IRA. I want it all."

Look how happy they are...

... that they created Kim Kardashian's butt plug.

Good Idea or Bad Idea?

It looks like a cellphone but folds out to a two shot .380 caliber gun.

Any questions?

He asked if I had any questions. Apparently, "how thick is the stick up your ass" was not a correct question.

Trump Voters

Good read http://www.gq.com/story/trump-supporters-gop-campaign-iowa

From inside the article


“They constipated America!” Diane said, rocking a House of Blues t-shirt. “What we have had is politicians and lawyers who have constipated America. Let’s get a businessman in there and get things moving! We need our new MiraLAX!”

“You don’t have to be a brain to run a business,” Randy said. “Just an ass. Sometimes you can be nice and polite, but there’s sometimes you’ve just got to be a horse’s ass with somebody to get them to do what they’re supposed to be doing.”

So far, I’d heard Trump compared—favorably—to a horse’s ass and to a laxative, and I began to imagine a Trump campaign poster that was just a big horse’s butthole spewing hot diarrhea.

Funny, but mean.

I have never tried Vegemite/Marmite and I don't think I want to.

Standing with Brussels........ (sprouts, especially with a cheese sauce)

Why can't the terrorist leave our vegetables alone.
In all seriousness though, I believe this is directly related to the influx of refugees. They won't assimilate and then they think it is our fault that they didn't assimilate so they want to kill us. I don't know what the proper course of action is as you want to be kind to all human beings but I guess there comes a time when  you have to say these people are not human beings and do not deserve our kindness.

Before we go any further, I want my Ends....

I'm Not Sick, But I'm Not Well

Just got a subscription to XM radio in the new car for the long road trips and Lithium played this song that I had not heard in a while and now I can't get it out of my head.

Happy Leap Day......

.....but when you get right down to it, it is just a day every four years that salary people get to work for free. Why can't we just do it every 28 years and then get a week off with no pay but at least we can vacation for the week. Just my opinion I could be wrong.
