The Intransitive Property

AITOOW hates it when sports talk show dips try and rate teams by the results of competitions between similar opponents? It has no useful application. Do you think a really good team gives as much effort against a cream puff? Or that the cream puff doesn't take the game twice as seriously? That means that, if the game were close, it is only because the better team sleep walked through the game. It doesn't mean they are close in talent. And it certainly doesn't mean that the mediocre team that took the cream puff seriously is nearly as good as the good team they are about to slaughtered by if the good team takes them seriously.

PC TV

AITOOW hates that political correctness means that one less hot chick will be on every new remake?

The Whoracle of Omaha

AITOOW who remembers when I told you that Warren "I Look Like I Ate The" Buffett only lent money to B of A because he had secret assurances from the gubment (Fed) that they would do something about toxic mortgages (Countrywide)? Well yesterday we had Ben Serve Bankies saying the Fed will buy toxic mortgages. Shocking! And then we hear that WB is going to host a fund raiser for BB's boss next month. I thought even the appearance of a quid pro quo was enough to imply a conflict of interest and should be avoided?

Glow Ball Initiative

AITOOW thinks Slick Willy's Jobs Initiative requires someone in the private sector discovering something as meaningful to the economy as the Internet? That or something involving the terms - hand or blow.

Snow Job

AITOOW notices that OBlah Blah's commercial drawn from his latest jobs speech states that "folks are living paycheck to paycheck"? Pardon me, but, if you have a paycheck don't you have a job by definition? Does his solution to unemployment require you to have a job before he can he steps in? Similar to his home mortgage solution.

Artiface Is Job 1

AITOOW would prefer that government try to get people careers instead of jobs? What good is a construction job a year from now? It will be back to same problem and we have to pay for the materials for a bridge that we can't afford. At least welfare (err unemployment checks) stops the bleeding at salaries. "Salaries" that I'm sure are paid at levels less than these jobs would pay. I can't believe I'm saying it, but, welfare may be preferable to OBrahmin's shovel ready jobs plan part deux.

Relativitly Speaking

AITOOW wonders how such a boring life can be going by so quickly?
