Our friends over at StillSpinning.net posted a pretty funny call into a customer service center regarding… ah, uhm… let's just say it wasn't a computer…
Don't worry, it's still funny regardless of which support center this actually occurred in — and really which center has this not occurred in…
Note: just ignore all the blue… I think they're playing with their site design
Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi was killed in a raid yesterday. I believe this is a huge blow to the Al Qaeda network. While figurehead Osama still eludes us in a hole somewhere, the top general for the terrorists in Iraq is gone.
The IRS pulled in record income tax revenues in April. The amount was second only to the final tech boom before the bust in 2001. Now if we had record income tax revenues that would certainly imply record incomes. Record incomes would point towards -gasp- a good economy.
This might also be used as proof that cutting tax RATES can actually increase tax REVENUES. Which is really what the big government guys are all about. Of course such economic theories don't really jive with trying to drum up class warefare.
That's right, the Democrats practically swept the November elections this -uh- coming November. Yeah.
Well the Dems are so sure of their chances this up coming election they are starting to call Nancy Pelosi as Speaker Pelosi. Some might call this arrogant or premature. Others, clairvoyant.
Well a grass effort to send a new kind of message to congress regarding illegal immigration and the need to secure our borders. Send-A-Brick.com is rallying people to send bricks to Congress as a statement about sealing the borders. Spokesmen for the organization say that they aren't necessarily desiring a huge brick wall – just a truely secure border.
You can send a brick to congress through their website for $11 or if you want to DIY: a brick stuffed in a priority mail envelope will cost you about $4 + the brick.
