Over The Hump and Through The News

Welcome to a Wednesday...as we hurdle over the obstacles known as the news...This Hump Day edition is brought to you by the IRS, creators of a new 1040 EZ form where you stick the label on your wallet and mail it in, and by Immigrations R Us...the new system in place that allows millions of Illegal Aliens to gain resident status through loop holes in the Government's border fences. Today is Ash Wednesday, Feb. 18, the 49th day of 2015. There are 316 days left in the year. This is the First Day of Lent...a Six week period of giving up something just to over do it when the six weeks is up...in the Ground Hogs case, it's his Shadow.

Some History Stuff...

On Feb. 18, 1885, Mark Twain’s “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” was published in the U.S. for the first time (after already being published in Britain and Canada).

In 1930, photographic evidence of Pluto (now designated a “dwarf planet”) was discovered by Clyde W. Tombaugh at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona.

Politically correct back pages:  Five Years ago...President Barack Obama personally welcomed the Dalai Lama to the White House, but kept the get-together off camera and low key in an attempt to avoid inflaming tensions with China. Instead, he took a still photo graph at a Local KMART under tight security to send home with the Dalai Lama.

Happy Birthday wishes for Cybil Shepherd...blowing out 65 candles and John Travolta staying Alive at 61....Both are Aquarians, Water bearers...until they have to eliminate...

OKAY HAVE IT YOUR WAY..DON'T MOVE YOUR CAR...I WILL MOVE IT FOR YOU.

By 2016, there will likely be a 6-foot tall police robot patrolling the streets and handing out parking tickets. The Telebot, developed by Florida International University’s Discovery Lab, has been field-tested and is undergoing final tune up.

With a swiveling head and dexterous fingers, the humanoid robot is controlled remotely by a person wearing an Oculus Rift headset and motion-tracking vest, arm bands, and gloves. The voice of the remote operator is transmitted through the robot to the unfortunate citizen on the receiving end.

The menacing look of Telebot is no accident. Its design is one “…that can intimidate and display a sense of authority.”

According to David Axelrod, the President reads everything written about him. And whether it's good or bad, he reads it..which is probably why I haven't gotten a birthday card from him this year.

The White House is teeing off this year with the President Obama Synchronized Golfing Tournament, featuring the best Synchronized Golf Swing....Other activities will be the Congressional Mole in One event----(idea to putt the ball into a gopher hole), The White House Border Fence Slip Through Obstacle Course--where golfers will try to hit out of sand traps surrounded by barbed wire fencing and other fun stuff for Congressmen, lobbyists and others who need a fun day away from the rigors of running our country into the ground.
