Ged Out! GED OUT NAAOOUUHH!!!



The gobernator has done it! It's "Hasta la Vista, Baby" for thousands of public employees in California. BBC has the info.

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger of California has moved to end a budget crisis by sacking 22,000 state workers and ordering pay cuts for 200,000.

The biggest state in the US faces a budget deficit of more than $15bn, and legislators are struggling to agree a spending plan.

The cuts, which will save $100m a month, are designed to put pressure on politicians to end the budget crisis.

But a leading official in the state challenged the decision to cut pay.

California has one of the largest economies in the world and it has no way to pay contractors for many of the services it provides.

Some 30 American states face budget deficits caused by rising costs and falling revenues in a slumping economy but California's is by far the largest.

Mr Schwarzenegger, the former Hollywood film star turned Republican politician, told reporters he had signed an executive order on the staff and pay cuts.

"Today I am exercising my executive authority to avoid a full-blown crisis and keep our state moving forward," he said.

"This is not an action I take lightly but we do not have a budget and, as governor, I have a responsibility to make sure our state has enough money to pay its bills."

California's state financial controller, John Chiang, a Democrat, has vowed not to implement the pay cuts, saying to do so could risk legal action.

He sent a letter to Mr Schwarzenegger on Thursday saying he would defy the order and issue employees their regular salaries.

The governor's executive order, he said, was based on "faulty legal and factual premises".

Asked whether his administration would sue the state financial controller's office if it did not comply with the executive order, Mr Schwarzenegger said:

"If that's what it takes. I'm here to make sure that our state functions, and whatever it takes, I will do it."


This is what happens when you elect a dumb, son of an SS officer, action hero as a governor. Where's your messiah now, see!

World's oldest joke revealed!


Can you believe that the worlds oldest joke is actually about toilet humor. Read on...

LONDON (Reuters) - The world's oldest recorded joke has been traced back to 1900 BC and suggests toilet humor was as popular with the ancients as it is today.

It is a saying of the Sumerians, who lived in what is now southern Iraq and goes: "Something which has never occurred since time immemorial; a young woman did not fart in her husband's lap."

It heads the world's oldest top 10 joke list published by the University of Wolverhampton Thursday.

A 1600 BC gag about a pharaoh, said to be King Snofru, comes second -- "How do you entertain a bored pharaoh? You sail a boatload of young women dressed only in fishing nets down the Nile and urge the pharaoh to go catch a fish."

The oldest British joke dates back to the 10th Century and reveals the bawdy face of the Anglo-Saxons -- "What hangs at a man's thigh and wants to poke the hole that it's often poked before? Answer: A key."

"Jokes have varied over the years, with some taking the question and answer format while others are witty proverbs or riddles,"
said the report's writer Dr Paul McDonald, senior lecturer at the university.

"What they all share however, is a willingness to deal with taboos and a degree of rebellion. Modern puns, Essex girl jokes and toilet humor can all be traced back to the very earliest jokes identified in this research."

The study was commissioned by television channel Dave. The top 10 oldest jokes can be viewed at www.dave-tv.co.uk.



So there you have it! Fart jokes have been around longer than all of us! So tell a bawdy joke to someone you like today!

A Lesbian is a LESBIAN! So shut up!


Ok...So the people of the greek island of Lesbos sued to stop women around the world from using the word "lesbian" from describing their sexual orientation...This is the court's decision.

ATHENS (Reuters) - A Greek court has dismissed a request by residents of the Aegean island of Lesbos to ban the use of the word lesbian to describe gay women, according to a court ruling made public on Tuesday.

Three residents of Lesbos, the birthplace of the ancient Greek poetess Sappho whose love poems inspired the term lesbian, brought a case last month arguing the use of the term in reference to gay women insulted their identity.

In a July 18 decision, the Athens court said the word did not define the identity of the residents of the island, and so it could be validly used by gay groups in Greece and abroad.

The ruling ordered the plaintiffs to pay court expenses of 230 euros ($366.2).

"This is a good decision for lesbians everywhere," Vassilis Chirdaris, lawyer for the Gay and Lesbian Union of Greece, told Reuters. "A court in Athens could not stop people around the world from using it. It was ridiculous."

He said the plaintiffs were free to appeal the decision in a higher court.

Lesbos, which lies just off the Turkish Coast, has become a gathering spot for gay women from around the world, especially at the village of Eressos which is regarded as the birthplace of the poet in the 7th century B.C.

Several residents testified during the trial that the use of the word lesbian had brought recognition to the island and boosted its tourist trade.

You see! Everyone wants to see lesbians! God bless them!

Leopoldo "Pucho" Fernandez dies.


It looks like the Grim Reaper has increased it's workload.

Leopoldo "Pucho" Fernandez, a well known and liked Cuban comedian that came to PR in the 1950's with his father Leopoldo Fernandez "Tres Patines", and worked in a number of comedies during the Sixties, Seventies, Eighties and well into the Nineties, died this morning from respiratory failure. The death was confirmed by his son Leo Fernandez the third, known as "El Paparazzi" in the local media. "Pucho" was 81 years old.

He was admitted to the UPR hospital in Carolina on Saturday after not feeling well in the nursing home he was living in since the year 2000.

His body will be cremated in a ceremony at Celestium on Thursday.

I had the pleasure of knowing Pucho since the 1970's when he used to work on Channel 11 here. A man of infinite jest, humor and wit, he always made fast friends with everyone he came in contact with. Last time I saw him was in a comedy documentary in 2001 when we interviewed him about the state of comedy in PR at that time. Even after all this years, he still recognized me and gave me a warm greeting.

Rest In Peace, my friend.

Three Children sentenced in Holdup.


Yeah...it gets better!

BEIJING (Reuters) - Three Hong Kong children have been sentenced to more than three years for the armed hold-up of a jewelery shop, a newspaper said on Thursday, with the court saying the stiff sentence was in the public interest.

Disguised with masks and caps, the two boys and one girl, all aged 14, threatened staff at the shop with knives in September last year, grabbing gold necklaces, bracelets and pendants valued at more than HK$1 million ($128,200).

Sentencing the three, now aged 15, the judge said the offence was too serious to warrant a training centre term despite the age of the three, the South China Morning Post said.

One boy, an apprentice to the mastermind goldsmith who had earlier been jailed for seven years, was sentenced to three years and seven months, while the other two, who are cousins, were jailed for three years and five months.

Earlier this week, a court heard that a nine-year-old Hong Kong girl traveled alone into mainland China to collect heroin and bring it back in her rucksack for a drug trafficker who paid her HK$1,200.

Man oh man...Hell in a hand basket...

Rush sucks at playing "Tom Sawyer" on Rock Band!

I can't believe it! The gods that are Rush can't play their own legendary rock song "Tom Sawyer" on the game Rock Band! Even Neal Perth has problems with the drum set! Man! I pass this song on expert! Playing the drums!!! And singing!!! Still, I'm a Rush fan. The video was shot for The Colbert Report. Try not to laugh too hard.

Man shoots it's own lawn mower.


Yup! You read it right. This is from AP;

MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin (AP) -- A 56-year-old Milwaukee man is accused of shooting his lawn mower because it wouldn't start.

Keith Walendowski has been charged with felony possession of a short-barreled shotgun or rifle and misdemeanor disorderly conduct while armed.

According to the criminal complaint, Walendowski says he was angry because his Lawn Boy wouldn't start Wednesday morning.

He told police: "I can do that, it's my lawn mower and my yard so I can shoot it if I want."

A woman who lives at Walendowski's house reported the incident. She says he was intoxicated.

Walendowski could face up to an $11,000 fine and six years and three months in prison if convicted.


After reading this...remember kids. Don't shoot you lawn mower while intoxicated with an illegal short barrel shot gun! Remember, be sober and use a heavy construction hammer!
It's much more fun!!!!

Prostitution Day, Colony Day and Martyrs Day


Today is Prostitution Day. Also is Non exsistent status day and Martyrs and fools day. The 25th of July is an infamous date in Puertorrican history.
On this date in 1898, the United States Army invaded us during the Spanish-American War,converting us into one of their colonies, doing something that they fought the British in 1776. The colonized became the colonizers.
In 1952 the government inaugurated the Estado Libre Asociado de PR (The Free Associated State of PR? Huh? Does that even exists?), some of them call them The Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Another name for a colony.
In 1978, two University of Puerto Rico students were stopped while attempting to "blow up" the antennas of WRIK TV in Maravilla Hill in Jayuya PR. Their weapons; lighter fluid and BBQ brisquets. Where did they get their brilliant idea? From a undercover cop who led them to that place. But the police instead of arresting them, executed them. That's right, they were brought to their knees and shot in their heads. Arnaldo Dario Rosado y Carlos Soto Arriví became two of the most famous martyrs in long fight for the independence of our island.

The 25th of July. For some a celebration of their US citizenship, for others a celebration of their non-existing status and for some a grim reminder that their struggle continues and that ideals means the shedding of blood, even if they want a bloodless independence, the fools.

Prostitution Day, Colony Day, Martyrs Day. Take your pick, and enjoy.

At last! Saw "The Dark Knight"...


WOW!

Words fail me...

WOW!

Can you say Best Movie Nominee at the academy awards...
Best supporting actor nod for Heath Ledger...

'Nuff said!

More on Christian Bale's legal woes.


It looks that the "Dark Knight" was ticked off when his mommy trash talked about his wife. Here is more of the story as reported by a friend of Bale's to Reuters...

"Christian was stressed, but he didn’t lay a finger on anyone. Instead, he flew off the handle and cussed his mother. He just got very loud because his mother was saying some very outrageous things about him, and his wife."

"Christian's attitude is that this was his mother's fault because she became very provocative in an argument they were having,’" the source said, adding: "Things got out of control and he now says he wishes he just left the room."

"Normally Christian would just call a friend and go out to a pub to cool off. But he was literally trapped into this confrontation with his mother and sister because there was an army of fans and paparazzi outside."

"They're going to need a "cooling off" period because his mother said some pretty outrageous things to him that really set him off."

"He regrets the way she treated him in their argument a lot more than having to talk to police about it. Christian has admitted that something just snapped, but he didn't threaten anyone with violence."


Bale is reportedly having marital problems as well.

The report goes on to say:

"He can have a terrible temper. Instead of lashing out at his wife, he sometimes lashes out at people around him."

"He's under a lot of pressure right now and simply got incredibly loud with members of his family around. I think his wife is going to be very important to him after all this is over because she does, at the end of the day, know how to calm him down."

He is also said to have become depressed over the death of close friend and co-star Heath Ledger. The two actors formed a friendship when they both played Bob Dylan in the flick I’m Not There.

The source said, "Without Ledger around, he's found it more and more difficult to communicate with those around him, especially his family."

Another Bale insider confirms that Ledger's death was a massive blow for the Welshman:

"They had become very close during the making of The Dark Knight and Christian went into virtual hiding for the six weeks after Heath was found dead."

"He wasn't returning phone calls and he wasn't a happy man. It's foolish to think that he's been able to completely shake off that grief just as Heath and his work is finally being seen by audiences."

"He expected to share this moment with his friend, and now he can't."


It was also reported that Bale found it hard to shake off the mental strains of Batman, and told an interviewer he was having trouble sleeping.

Maybe Bale is having the same kinds of problems Heath had while making the film.

Is therapy next for our caped crusader?

Or is it the accidental overdose route, like his friend, The Joker?

What will happen?

Tune in next time,
at the same Bat hour,
on the same Bat channel!

Mommy, Sis, I'm Batman...SO SHUT THE F... UP!


Here we go again! Actor Christian Bale, who's riding high with the success of "The Dark Knight" was questioned by Scotland Yard about an assault charge filed his own Mom & Sis. Allegedly, the incident happened in a London hotel where the actor assaulted them verbally. Christian, who was released after four hours of interrogation, has denied these accusations.

Maybe he should have played the Joker in the movie instead!

More Porta-baby news...just when you thought throwing your bathwater was safe...


EFE in Spain has this surprising news. In Warsaw, Poland, a Drunken couple threw their two week old baby out of the window of their apartment in their drunken stupor. Authorities said that the baby was still alive when the rescue services arrived, but the child died a few hours after the incident, due to the masive injuries sustained.
The Couple and the Grandmother(who was also in the house, drunk as a skunk), were arrested and charged with manslaughter in the 2nd. degree and child neglect and abuse.

How about a firing squad for these Einsteins?

Porta-Babies part 2- The Bag Strikes Back


A 14 year old girl in Mayagüez (A city at the western part of the island), had a secret. She was pregnant, but told no one about it. Unlike the indie movie "Juno", in which the teen confides in her parents and friends and has the baby, this story does not have a happy ending. She had the baby on Sunday morning in the bathroom and after cutting the umbilical cord, she stuffs the newborn into a plastic bag. The mom notices that something is wrong with her daughter and after discovering the awful and bloody truth, takes the daughter and baby to the hospital. Unfortunately, the baby suffocated in the bag and was DOA at the hospital. Now the mother has a dead grandchild in the morgue and a daughter in intensive care, after losing a lot of blood in the birthing process. Compounding this tragedy is that if the teen mother survives, she will be charged with the killing of the baby, be it first degree or a lesser manslaughter charge.

This is what happens when there is no sex education in the schools. And no Sex Ed for parents to recognize the dangers of teen pregnancy. Advocating only celibacy and denying that teens are having more sex than ever is not the solution. People that advocate that the right for a woman to choose be abolished,in my mind, are accomplices of this crime. They like to point out the right to life. Fine. But how about a right to a life! By denying that child the opportunity to learn about the changes in her body, how to protect herself and if she chose, take care of her baby, this whole sad tragedy would have never happened. We all lose from this baby's death. We lose a part of our collective soul every time this happens. And the Road to Oblivion, keeps getting wider.

Holy Money, Batman!


It's official! "Dark Knight", the second installment of the new Batman franchise, broke all expectations at the box office, pulling in more than 155.6 million dollars on it's first weekend. Estimates is putting the final tally at 400 million domestically, making this movie one of the top twenty moneymakers of all time.

It starts locally in PR on Wednesday, July 23. Get ready!

Early estimates from box office tallies across the US, say that on it's preview day, The Dark Knight, the new Batman story, directed by Christopher Nolan, broke records by collecting 18.5 million dollars in a single day, 66.7 Millon dollars by Friday. If this keeps up, it might break the record established by "Spiderman 3" in a single weekend.

Exit the Spider, enter the Bat!!!!

The Watchmen Cometh! Or "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?"

More info on the death of Glendaly Vigoreaux




This is the info published by AP;

Police in Glendale County, Arizona confirmed yesterday that 44-year-old Glendaly Vigoreaux Echevarría, daughter of the late [Puerto Rican] TV producer Luis Vigoreaux and actress Lydia Echevarría, was found dead by her husband Paul Hacker in their home on Frier Drive in Glendale, Arizona.

According to Glendale Police report PD 08-77459 signed by Sergeant Jim Toomey, agency detectives are investigating Glendaly Vigoreaux's death as a suicide, as confirmed by the autopsy performed by the Maricopa County Medical Examiner's Office.

The report indicated that officers responded to a call on Tuesday, July 15 at 9:58 AM from the residence of Glendaly Vigoreaux and Paul Hacker on Frier Drive.

Vigoreaux and Hacker were married, although the former kept her maiden name.

According to the report, Hacker told police officers that he left his house around 7:30 AM and returned shortly thereafter, finding Vigoreaux lifeless on the floor. The body had a bullet wound to the head. A semiautomatic caliber .380 revolver was found at the scene. Forensic and physical evidence is consistent with a self-inflicted shooting.

Officials with the Maricopa County Medical Examiner's Office performed an autopsy and concluded that the manner of death points to suicide.

The reason for Vigoreaux to take her life is unknown.

For his part, Vigoreaux's uncle and Lydia Echevarría's brother Rafael Miranda Rodríguez said yesterday that "at 4:00 PM, I spoke to Lydia from the airport in Houston - which means she has not arrived - and told me that [Glendaly's sister] Vanessa – who is in Glendale, in front of the house – told her that it was full of paparazzi, worse that here."

Miranda revealed that "it was finally confirmed to Lydia, after Glendaly's autopsy, that it was a suicide. Glenda's husband Paul had not told her due to all her health conditions such as diabetes, heart conditions, and thyroid. Seeing her so desperate about the illnesses, he made the decision not to say [anything] about the suicide. That is the scenario Lydia faced. And Vanessa is over there. Paul practices target shooting and had new-automobile dealerships."

Miranda indicated that "Paul is traumatized because he had never lived that experience among celebrities, and said that seeing all those photographers was a horrible thing. For now, the body will be brought home for a wake."

No comments at this time, people.

Sad, sad news...


I just received word that a good friend when we were in college, Glendalys Vigoreaux, killed herself inside her residence in Glendale, Arizona. It was rumored that she was battling cancer for some time. Glendalys was the daughter of murdered show host Luis Vigoreaux and the mastermind behind his murder Lydia Echevarria.

Glenda...Rest in peace. You were a cool kid.

Guy who dressed as a penis to ask for forgiveness.

From Saratoga Springs, NY we get this info...A judge has ordered a 19 year old man to publish a public apology to the city of Saratoga Springs for using an obscene costume in a high school Grduation.
Calvin Morett pleaded guilty to the charges of improper public conduct for appearing in the Saratoga theater where the ceremony was being performed dressed as a giant penis and shooting Silly String from the top. The scene was captured on video and posted on You Tube.
The Judge ordered that Calvin pays for the public apology in the local newspaper, court costs and perform 24 hours of community service.

Damn! Why didn't I thought of that in high school!!!

Way to go Calvin!!!!

Check out the video!!!

Coffee can intoxicate you!


A study by The University of Massachusetts published today indicated that more than 4,000 people last year became intoxicated by drinking too much coffee or caffeinated drinks like Red Bull, Jolt or Mountain Dew. The study cites that the Center for Poison Control received more that 4,000 calls, most of them from people under the age of 19. Symptoms of coffee intoxication includes headaches, upset stomach and vomiting. It is unknown how much caffeine you have to consume in order to be intoxicated, as each person develops a different tolerance to the substance.

Hey! Forget Miller time. It's Yaucono time!!!!!
Next, instead of a cop pulling you over for DUI it will be DUC (Driving Under Caffeine)!
This gives the 3'OClock coffee break a whole new meaning!

Why do we need better weapons training!


Bizarre stuff happens all the time in PR. Two childhood friends died when one of them accidentally killed the other with an illegal gun he purchased. The guy was playing at being a gangster when the gun discharged, hitting his friend in the neck killing him instantly. Then in the panic and the confusion of the moment, the guy put the gun in his mouth and pulled the trigger.
This makes two things clear, first, don't play with a weapon, guns are not toys! Second, we need a lighter gun law that requires that citizens can purchase a gun, but are required to take weapons training with it for your license. If the laws here weren't that draconian, This tragedy probably would have been averted, as that guy would have known what to do with a legal gun.

Man falls while praying, sues church for 2.5 million dollars


Seriously...I'm not making this up.

Quoth AP...
"A man has filed a $2.5 million lawsuit against Lakewind Church of Knoxville, Tennessee for failing to have catchers available during a church service. According to the lawsuit, Matthew Lincoln, a 58-year old recording engineer, was slain in the Spirit when touched on the forehead by a visiting preacher named Robert Lavala. Lincoln claims that the fall aggravated a degenerative disc condition that he had had in his neck and back.

The lawsuit claims that Lakewind negligently failed to provide catchers when it knew or should have known to do so."

The Crook says: "Have your ID...or else!"


As always our crook/governor Anibal Acevedo Vila will always try to do something for the American overlords that will send him to prison. This time is bringing the dreaded National ID card as a driver's license. "This is the new ID that the Americans, using the Patriot Act, want us to use."
Of course as a good lackey of "Das Amerikaner" he forgot to tell us that this is a new infringement of our civil liberties, which has almost disappeared under the rule of our esteemed "Fuhrer" George W. "I was AWOL in Vietnam" Bush, and continue to be eroded, while we the sheep, fight over "Objetivo Flema" and "American Idiot".
So get ready for those beautiful words when a law enforcement officer says:"Papiren Juden!" Those concentration camps and final solutions cannot be far behind!

Miss Universe madness


One thing that you can always count in this island of enchantment is the Miss Universe hoopla in the summer time. Puerto Rico becomes a mecca for pageant watchers everywhere. People that would not give you the time of day, become expert pageant-ologists overnight, discussing with you the beauty of a candidate, weighting in her chances, Is there any favoritism involved?. Is Donald Trump signaling who will be the next MU? PR becomes excited in the crap surrounding the competition.

Of course, we have something to be excited about. Puerto Rico has won the Miss Universe pageant an incredible 5 times, second only to the US. Venezuela has only won 4 times. Everybody here is rooting for Ingrid Marie Rivera, the actual Miss Universe Puerto Rico. This is the same lady that was unmasked as a professional pageant participant, and claimed that her dress was sabotaged with pepper spray during the final night of competition. Now it's said that she's the Donald favorite to win the competition, as he wants terrains in PR to be given to him to construct a millionaires gulf club. A little favor for a big one.

If she wins on Sunday, it will be the sixth win. If not she will come back home as the fake celebrity she truly is, maybe to become a doctor's trophy wife, an info-taiment anchorperson or worst yet, a politician! A good career choice they should consider is porn, since they are whores (attention and otherwise), and already dead in the soul.

What baffles me is that next year...it will be the same shit all over again!

What is this and why am I blogging?

Good question! I mean in this day and age of blogging, where everybody (and I do mean everybody!) blogs, here come my fetid mind to stir the pot and help push the hand cart to hell!
My blog is my take on Puertorrican society, from the perspective of a actual living in the island puertorrican! No crap about how we should have or could have. Just the cold reality of a society going through some tough changes. In this day and age of globalization and unbridled capitalism, being in one of the last colonies of a foreign power in the world, makes it for some interesting living and surviving.

So get ready! The ride is going to be bumpy. I would not have it any other way!
