The city of Atlanta (Motto: “Home of the airport where you changed planes last Christmas”) has installed a roundabout at a rather busy intersection near my house. This is highly entertaining if you’re watching from a safe distance, such as a nearby restaurant patio, or possibly South Carolina. But actually driving in this roundabout is the closest most Atlantans come every day to serious injury, or at least a rather large fender dent. We all know it’s true: Americans aren’t fond of roundabouts. In fact, a new survey says 93 percent of Americans would rather stub their toe on furniture...

Ever since he announced he was stepping down as Tonight Show host Jay Leno has seemingly been harder on Barack Obama. Well on Monday's Tonight Show with Jay Leno that trend continued as Leno featured a clip of schoolchildren peppering the President with the tough questions that the press should be hammering him with on a daily basis. The following bit was aired on the May 20 edition of NBC's The Tonight Show with Jay Leno: Watch Video Here JAY LENO: Actually President Obama made a surprise visit to a school in Baltimore on Friday.

To: Ted Cruz Date: May 6, 2013 My dear friend, I feel like we’ve started off on the wrong foot. Although there have been many times this Congress that I’ve longed to feel your soft face pressed helplessly against my knuckles, a lifetime of service has taught me that, with effort, I can forgive almost any slight for the good of the country. Please consider this note an olive branch, and realize that any suggestions come from a place a friendship.

My VA Medical Appointment I visited a VA physician last week who was quite enthusiastic. It was a “new” doctor in the practice, a young lady (at MY age, EVERYBODY is “young”! When I was born, the Dead Sea wasn‘t even sick!) She was obviously a liberal by her dress and manner. I was thinking of hitting on her, but I don’t like the phrase she used, “You remind me of my grandfather.” She asked me what was wrong, and I replied, “I have a cut on my leg; and I think it may be getting infected.” She said, “Before...

BOGOTA, Colombia - The nuns' habits didn't seem to be habitual garb for three young women so Colombian police asked them to step aside when they arrived on the Caribbean island of San Andres on a flight from Bogota. Police Capt. Oscar Davila says the three women appeared nervous, and the fabric didn't look right.

The Little Debbie Snacks logo for McKee Foods has received a new look, but the changes are so subtle the company is asking its Facebook (FB) fans to find the differences. The dessert-snack company announced the new look on May 2 and asked its 1.6 million fans to note the changes in the comments. So far, over 2,200 people have commented, and most have guessed right. Can you see the differences below? The changes include: Little Debbie is wearing a more modern plaid shirt with a different shade of blue and a “Peter Pan” collar instead of a pointed collar....

A guy is out walking in a field and spots a large hole in the ground. He walks over to it and peers over the edge. He can't see the bottom, so he looks around and spots a pebble. He tosses the pebble in the hole, cocks his head, and listens. Nothing. He looks around again, sees a large boulder, hefts it up and waddles over to the edge of the hole and heaves it it and cocks his head. Nothing. He looks around once more and spots a large railroad tie. With considerable effort, he drags it to the...

First day on the job… A young guy from North Dakota moves to Florida and goes to a big "everything under one roof" department store looking for a job. The Manager says, "Do you have any sales experience?" The kid says "Yeah. I was a vacuum salesman back in North Dakota." Well, the boss was unsure, but he liked the kid and figured he'd give him a shot, so he gave him the job. "You start tomorrow. I'll come down after we close and see how you did." His first day on the job was rough, but he got through...

According to a new report by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, everyone wants Michelle Obama's arms. That's right, while the rate of overall procedures has declined overall since 2000, the demand for upper arm lifts, or brachioplasty, has exploded, jumping a breathtaking 4,378 percent in the last decade.

With all of the horror that was inflicted on the city of Boston and the wider United States last week, some on the Left were actively savoring the chance to blame the bombings on a white Christian "Tea Partier." As it turned out, the brothers Tsarnaev were motivated by jihad and not by Sarah Palin. Still, what is a crisis to the Left without some moral equivalency? Of course, you have all sorts of questions still swirling around the bombings, but it could be used for any sort of political gain!

FNN Exclusive: FNN has learned that President Obama has called his National Security Organization directors into an emergency session following the Marathon Bombing and subsequent apprehension of alleged Tea Party Radicals. The pressing matter requiring the emergency meeting was the matter of performance bonuses. The President has determined that the DHS, DOJ, and other agencies have performed in an outstanding matter justifing 30% performance bonuses. Although they did not prevent the bombing and the subsequent carnage apprehending the perpetrators, the situation could have been worse had these agencies not been involved. Butch Napolitano reminded everyone present of the other 363...

North Korea has emphatically denied that they are responsible for the Marathon City of Boston Bombing. They have offered help using their advanced intelligence services. From Young Moon Son, of an unafilliated Nork Public Affairs office: Unsubstantiated accusations of The Peoples Glorious Republic of North Korea's involvement in the pusillanimous bombing attack on the Marathon City of Boston in the Capitalist Dictatorship of the USA are completely false. Any person can easily see that this is misdirection for another purpose. A PGRNK attack would be much more effective. We would kill many thousands, not just three and wound hundreds. This...

FNN Exclusive: FNN has learned that President Obama was not invited to MS. Thatcher's funeral. The Queen had advised the President that only A-list persons were invited. President Obama was initially demoted to the B-list when he returned the gift of the bust of Winston Churchill and replaced it with a bust of Joseph Stalin. He was later further demoted to the C-list because of the table manners of his wife Michelle (aka Moo) at a state dinner hosted by the British Embassy. Several observers (who wished to remain nameless) stated she resembled a starving Ethiopian at an all-you-can-eat buffet....

Having differences of opinion is one thing. But if you ask Meghan McCain, Ann Coulter's brand of over-the-top rhetoric went too far. The Daily Beast columnist took to Twitter to slam the conservative firebrand for jokingly suggesting she should be murdered in Coulter's latest online screed. " Apparently, Ann Coulter made a joke about me being killed in a recent column," she tweeted yesterday. "I should expect nothing less but disgusted regardless." The blog post in question titled, "Liberals Go Crazy for the Mentally Ill," focused on gun control and was originally published on the Fox Nation website. In it...

Senate Mulls Background Checks on Potential Victims April 10th, 2013 Scott Ott Potential mass-shooting victim background checks mulled by SenateSome senators worry that a bill to screen for potential mass-shooting victims could lead to empty classrooms and theaters, or worse, the specter of armed security personnel or even armed, law-abiding citizens depriving people of their natural right to remain defenseless. The U.S. Senate next week will reportedly take up debate on a bill to require background checks on potential victims of mass shootings. The alternative to increased gun-purchase background checks came out of closed-door negotiations among Senate leaders when they...

FNN Exclusive: FNN has learned that the Administration has "disappeared" 663,000 workers. Most of these are believed to be white males between 40 and 55 years of age.

Artist’s concept of a proposed new brand. San Jose-based branding firm Liquid Agency has been selected to update the Vatican’s marketing strategy. Rome officials are looking to the Silicon Valley agency to provide a contemporary and technology-friendly identity for the Church’s global outreach efforts. The papal rebranding will replace the current identity, which has been used since 1929, when Pope Pius IX signed the Lateran Treaty, creating the newly independent Vatican City.  Liquid, located in downtown San Jose’s SoFA district, is expected to produce a more iconic, streamlined look that will better enable the Church to hold its own against...

An informal survey showed us fully 75% of all postings were amateur attempts at parody." He went on "And it is a stretch to call these things parody. Parody isn't just making up crazy stuff and putting it into the mouths of people you don't like." A frequent poster on the web site, DManA approves of the move.

A bizarre case leaves an Arizona community questioning their perception of reality and a police department wondering if Glock is the right sidearm for its officers. Last week was a milestone for Arizona police officer Martin Walker. March 27 marked his twentieth year with the Dilbert Police Department and the day that he was first issued his Glock semi automatic pistol. “In 20 years, thousands of rounds, I never had a jam, malfunction, hell, any real problem with it until [that day],” Walker said and, on the verge of tears, added. “I don’t know I could trust a Glock again...
