Guilty.

While Americans believe President Obama is using a teleprompter, Hilliary finds out that in reality it is a one way mirror so The Narcissist in Chief can continually gaze upon himself.

USA Today/Christine Brennan will be soon issuing an apology ala CNN/Ed Henry (for Henry asking a ‘hard’ question of Dear Leader last Tuesday.)

how long will it be before the administration issues an apology?

And honestly, I noticed this when all the hoo-hah was made over Obama's bracket..... "Brewing Tempest in a Teapot" was my comment, I believe. Wonder why it took this long to boil?

There is no Vegas Line on Women’s Basketball. Thus there are no brackets.

When I was in High School we had little cards with names and numbers on them that we got from Sonny Mercurio at the “bakery”. Google him.

Sonny Mercurio?

Wasn’t he the lead singer for the rock band Queen?

HEY! There's no room for rationality here! We're talking about a conspiracy of Blatant Discrimination on the part of our executive branch!

Never mind that watching women's hoops ranks somewhere between mowing the lawn and washing the windows, at least in the WBill household.

There was a tempest in a teapot locally...there was (maybe still is, I dunno) a WNBA team just down the road. They couldn't get anyone to come to their games. They tried giving tickets away...no one wanted them. Pretty bad, sez I, when a professional team can't even attract people with freebies.

Mowing the lawn? That’s exciting!

More like, “watching the grass grow”.

I actually enjoy watching the grass grow. I just put a back lawn in and have been rooting for it (get it? rooting! I crack myself up....) to grow.

I'm surprised it took this long for the sexists to accuse Big O of sexism.
I'm all for women playing college basketball. What bugs me is their being touted as being better than they really are. They simply don't deserve the amount of national press they get. I'd put my local boys high school team up against the ladies UConn team any day...and our guys didn't even make it past the Sweet 16. And they were never shown on ESPN, either.

I GET IT!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

You have a point, though.

A good cigar, a glass of good boubon, a sunny Saturday afternoon, a lawn chair...

...Whatcha doing?

...”Watchin’ the grass grow”
