Monday's Pun(s)!!!
Why do archers shoot arrows? Could it be they are trying to get a point across?
The magician got so mad he pulled his hare out.
One of the first things you'll notice at the Beijing airport is a whole lot of Chinese checkers.

Well, Looky Here... Seems the MSM's discovered that there is a problem at the site for the sailing venue at the Olympics. I got the tip originally from a friend who is sailing over thar. Well, he's not really sailing as the fotos of his fellow sailors show.
C'mon, you commie bastards...get this fixed!! Maybe they just need some olde "Yankee Ingenuity"!

Olympics! China...
Yeah.............
So the Olympic venue for sailing is Qingdao. (King daow). Seems that Qingdao is a green city. No literally. Seems an algae bloom has cropped up on the site of the sailing venue. You know that algae grows in polluted water. Well, let's see how they phrase it...
Blue-green algae blooms when nutrients, sometimes caused by excessive pollution, build up in water.
The country's three-decade economic boom has left its waterways and coastlines severely polluted by industrial and farm chemicals and domestic sewage.
About a quarter of the entire population lacks access to safe drinking water and, despite repeated government pledges of a cleanup, the situation is worsening.
Some algae can produce dangerous toxins and if ingested can cause vomiting, respiratory failure and, on rare occasions, death.
Ohhhhh that's it "...sometimes caused by excessive pollutants....". How delicate. Well how do ya get rid of it? If your a commie rat bastard you call up the peoples, around 3000 ought to do, and you send them in to the fetid mixture and they scoop it up in their arms.
I am not clear that they told the peoples about that last paragraph stuff...you the dangerous toxin part. Nevertheless, I am confident that our commie hosts will have everything shipshape by the time the Olympics begin. Not to sure if those 3000 will be around though.
"Drill Here. Drill Now. Pay Less."
Sign the petition here. Say it with me...
But wait Rumbear...drilling now will not provide any immediate benefit. Well, let's apply that logic across the board then.
My response to those who say that increased drilling is pointless because it won't yield immediate results -- like Arnold Schwarzenegger --is why worry about the greenhouse effect, then? Nothing we do will cool the planet immediately. Yet we're told immediate action there is vital. In fact, we're told that by none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger, in the very same speech.
Well....I'm waiting.....
No Ice At the North Pole!! Sub Title: Oh my Gawd!
In recent days the histrionics from the GlowBall Warming crowd have hit a crescendo over the prediction that there may be open water at the North Pole this year. "We're actually projecting this year that the North Pole may be free of ice for the first time [in history]," David Barber, of the University of Manitoba, told National Geographic News aboard the C.C.G.S. Amundsen, a Canadian research icebreaker.
You don't say? Well here's a statement from an article in 2000 wherein a similar concern was addressed.
Paleontologist Malcolm McKenna, of New York City's American Museum of Natural History, said, "I don't know if anybody in history ever got to 90[degrees] north to be greeted by water, not ice." Even more surprising, they saw ivory gulls soaring blithely overhead. The Times itself commented that the last time anyone could be certain the pole was awash in water was more than 50 million years ago.
".....First time in history...." "...50 million years ago..." Now I really hate to burst your hyperbole (not really) but take a look at to picture. Looks like water to me. Now, go read the truth.
Okay, here a snippet from the USS Skate which surfaced at the North Pole in 1959 and numerous other locations during Arctic cruises in 1958 and 1959:
"the Skate found open water both in the summer and following winter. We surfaced near the North Pole in the winter through thin ice less than 2 feet thick. The ice moves from Alaska to Iceland and the wind and tides causes open water as the ice breaks up. The Ice at the polar ice cap is an average of 6-8 feet thick, but with the wind and tides the ice will crack and open into large polynyas (areas of open water), these areas will refreeze over with thin ice. We had sonar equipment that would find these open or thin areas to come up through, thus limiting any damage to the submarine. The ice would also close in and cover these areas crushing together making large ice ridges both above and below the water. We came up through a very large opening in 1958 that was 1/2 mile long and 200 yards wide. The wind came up and closed the opening within 2 hours. On both trips we were able to find open water. We were not able to surface through ice thicker than 3 feet."
GlowBall Warming...enjoy the Kool-Aide.

Monday's Pun(s) !!!! I know road rage is an awful thing but when someone bumped my car I just couldn't help it. I got out my camera and snapped at the offender.
If you leave alphabet soup on the stove and go out, it could spell disaster.
Why are Italians so good at making coffee? Because they really know how to espresso themselves.
The king never let any of his personal musicians go swimming immediately after eating for fear that they would get minstrel cramps.
