Pork Prices May Soar - So The Media Is Finally Reporting It...

...but I blogged about it on June 25th. So not only do I blog about what the news media has already doled out, I sometimes beat them to the draw.

Media reports:

My blog report:

I beat the media by over 2 weeks with my prediction that pork prices may soar because of the virus. I must be some sort of a perspicacious pig predictor (too bad I did not buy pork belly futures two weeks ago). Next thing you know, they will report it is an Islamist plot to devastate the pork industry or a plot by Obama to do the same (but I just said that in other words did I not). Oh well...

Mantyhose - Please Tell Me This Just Ain't So...

...and if it is so, tell me - why weren't they named Pansyhose as I think the name would have been much more suited to most men who will wear them. Yeah, I know, the metrosexuals of today would say I am manty-phobic or something like that. The truth is I am not afraid to tell it like it should be: pantyhose and stockings are women's wear and what are Mantsyhose but pantyhose with a letter changed. After all, it sure as shit does not appear like the gender of those wearing them has changed because every guy in the pics on the Mantsyhose website and in the accompanying video looks like a wussie to me.



It was bad enough when my son bought me some tight Under Armor long-johns but at least they were in Realtree camo. What can I say, I have values and sensibilities of yesteryear.

All the best,
