Trade In Your Steering Wheel

…for a toilet seat:

As we enter our collective lunch breaks, we thought this number might make you think again before eating and driving: There are nearly nine times as many potentially harmful bugs on your steering wheel as there are on an average toilet seat.

This shouldn’t really be surprising. Toilet seats get cleaned occasionally.

But replacing my steering wheel with a toilet seat probably wouldn’t work out all that well. The rim of the seat is too big to get my fingers comfortably around.

Anyway, if it’s not news you can use, it’s at least news.

The New Holocaust

Democrat hysteria and hyperbole over modest budget cuts reaches new highs. Or lows:

“The mean-spirited bill, H.R. 1 … eliminates the National Endowment of the Humanities, National Endowment of the Arts,” said Reid. “These programs create jobs. The National Endowment of the Humanities is the reason we have in northern Nevada every January a cowboy poetry festival. Had that program not been around, the tens of thousands of people who come there every year would not exist.”

Who knew that these benighted cowboy poetry afficianados were not only dependent on Washington for their rodeo clown fix, but their very existence?

Yippi-ki-o, yipp-ki-a, cowboy poets on the dole.
