Just Ask Me [Cool SOURCE]09.28.2008 | Don Surber
I’m 55, married and live in Poca, W.Va. My lone super power is the ability to put a song in your head. My favorite? “History shows again and again, how nature points up the folly of man — Godzilla!”
I’ve been with the Charleston Daily Mail for 24 years, the last 21 as an editorial writer and columnist. The National Society of Newspaper Columnists named me the best columnist in the land, under 100,000 circulation, in 2000.
In February 2005, I started a blog so I could comment on more breaking news. In January 2007, I moved the whole shebang over here.
Question: Is the United States the only place where the federal government fool enough to bail out foolish bankers?
Answer: Try Beligium. The Times of London reported on the woes of Fortis: “The Belgian central bank and the country’s regulator are paving the way for a bailout of the huge banking and insurance group, which has a £540 billion [$1 trillion] balance sheet and a market value of £12 billion [$25 billion].”
Question: So was a deal struck?
Answer: Yes, they decided to pat themselves on the back, hand you the bill and watch the economy tank after Election Day.
Question: What was the funniest moment in all this?
Answer: Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi confiscating the Blackberries of her staff so there would be no leaks, Politico reported. I see she’s surrounded herself with people she completely does not trust. Yea, there’s someone I want to work my heart out for.
Question: How far apart were they?
Answer: Republicans ate pizza, Democrats burgers. They never agree on anything. I wish they had kept it that way.
Question: What is “P is 43,112,609″?
Answer: A 13-million-digit prime number, which coincidentally, if you put a dollar sign in front of it, the number just happens to equal the federal debt.
Question: What does Republican Sarah Palin like to cook?
Answer: Moose stew. Also, her home is appraised at $552,100, she drives a Chevy Suburban and a VW Jetta, and her hobby is fishing.
Question: What is the craziest story of the day?
Answer: The Duck of Death. It has razor teeth. But I doubt it ever said, “You’re dethpicable.”
Question: What was the big story we all missed?
Answer: When Chloe Kondrich, 5, met Sarah Palin on Sept. 3. Chloe has Down Syndrome. KDKA has the story.

Reminds me of the Game Warden who caught the guy who was hunting Bald Eagles like they were any other bird in the sky.
"I finally caught you, killing those eagles, I wondered why and what's it like?" I asked.
The perpetrator replied "That's news for me,I wondered what they were called and they taste a lot like chicken."
M_P in no way condones or encourages hunting or killing animals, unless you are licensed to do so and can obtain said license, and intend to use the animal for food.
