Get Incensed

That’s big of you ….

The media hype machine is in full gear.

So far you’ve probably heard the upcoming Presidential election described as “historic,” “the most important election since 1980″ and “a third less filling than a regular election.”

Much has been made of how the Democratic Party will be represented by either a black man or a woman in the Presidential race.

Lost in all the hoopla has been the social breakthrough in the Republican Party. For the first time in the history of this great nation, people are forced to face the question: “Is America ready for a candidate whose wife is bigger than he is?”

Holy HGH, Batman! Janet Huckabee is not only three inches taller than her husband, she can bench 125 more pounds and is more of a force at outside linebacker.

Democrats like to point out that their party was the first to have a President with a taller wife but, to be fair, FDR was in a wheelchair a lot of the time so I don’t think we can count that.

As far as I can tell, the election boils down to a contest between those candidates who want to give everyone free health care and free housing and those who want to give everyone free housing and free health care.

The Friday Six isn’t some empty campaign promise. It’s a list of the six websites, articles or mission statements that made us laugh over the past week.

Not the same old alliterative Friday Five.

The Friday Six. A post you can believe in ….

Overheard at the Beach is just like being on vacation but without the couple having sex in the next room while you’re trying to sleep. This week’s personal fave:
Brunette: Okay, now that I have your number, I’ll just call you and then you’ll have mine.
Blonde: Oh! It’s ringing. Okay… I’m going to reject you, and then I’m going to save you… I’m just like Jesus.

Have a great weekend, everyone! And don’t watch too much election coverage … it’ll rot your brain.
