Good morning Teach.

I once read a medical publication
That described human pandiculation
In Congress you see the performa
When they bend over backwards for 0bama
Because they love their graft and corruption.

Ok, I'll go sit in the corner...where's the thermos?

There’s the joke I expected.

Anybody watch the TCU/Baylor game the other day? After, some numbskull on Twitter said “too bad it rained, it limited both offenses.”

I pointed out that if these teams had played another typical 70-63 Big 12 game, no one would remember 2 weeks from now.

Because both teams had to slug through a constant downpour, a battle against each other and the elements, these players will be telling their grandkids about this one.

Lonely Chinese males are occasionally found to engage in pandiculation.

I know. Melissa McCarthy is much heavier, but I think she’s more attractive, because she seems a nicer person.

Hillary’s pandiculation
Is really quite the art
That Bill began teaching
His wife from the start

How to parse and tell lies
Are Bill’s stock in trade
He instructed Hillary well-
Then she was able to evade

Questions about La Monica
As she lets the tears spill-
Now, years later she is able
To lie with consummate skill...

I don’t think she looks all that plump for someone who doesn’t do actual physical work, but she is not a nice person, and that makes her repulsive.

There is something wrong with those who elevated a person with socialist/communist ideals to the position of pope-their vetting process appears to be just as flawed as it was in the dark and middle ages-it needs serious reform...

The majority of the concave knew what they were doing, I think.

That’s the scary part.

And that is why the vetting process needs to be changed-maybe expand it to include where each nominee is from, what views they have absorbed in their upbringing, do they cater to secular government before church teaching-which Francis certainly does-he marches to the socialist/communist drumbeat of the Argentine government. And have a more through interview and fact checking process before sending that holy smoke up the chimney-with Francis, that chimney wasn’t the only place holy smoke was blown...
