Remember, girls, take your pills!

Birth Control pills, that is. If nothing else, Grandma Sarah Palin should be campaigning for safe sex practices, not the 2012 election. When daughter Bristol gave birth to a kid named Tripp, as in "I got tripped up by the idea of safe sex," there was no mention of how her life is a lesson for other teens: practice safe sex.

I once knew a woman who married a Catholic. He didn't believe in birth control. They practiced the rhythm method. That didn't work. She got pregnant. They had an abortion. Later, they got divorced, mainly because she thought he was stupid. 

This is what a lack of birth control gets you: unwanted pregnancies, unwanted abortions, and in at least one case, a much needed divorce! 

I know Gov. Palin has her hands full, being a new grandma, running for President in 2012 (she's like a serial killer who just got her first taste of blood with the last election) and trying to spin her in-laws incarceration, but seriously, wouldn't a public service announcement about birth control be timely about now? Maybe she can take her finger off the rifle trigger for a moment and do one.

5 Signs your job may be in jeopardy

I am amused by all the articles lately that boast giving "tell-tale signs your job is in jeopardy." As someone who thinks about the great unemployed, masses quite a bit, I have a few thoughts on the subject. Here are Binx's Five Signs You Are About to Get Laid Off:

1) You work for a company other than yourself.

2) You have survived a round of lay-offs. In fact, you've survived several rounds of layoffs. Don't fight the inevitable!

3) You work for anyone other than Obama, the only person who has some job security for the next four years as he has his work cut out for him.

4) You are the CEO of a financial institution or an automaker. Okay, you may actually be okay, but I wouldn't count on a bonus. I would count on bad PR.

5) You live in the USA. Actually, you live anywhere. Who's not at risk?

Sure, sure, we can't all get laid off, but when the hot new thing is Unemployment, you know the world is in a heap of trouble.

In a small victory for me, I would like to give an update to my quest that has been going on for the last four years. As you may have read before on this blog, I've been asking everyone who voted for George W. Bush to apologize to me for ruining this country. Just this week, I received another apology. That brings the total number of people who have apologized up to 2. What is the lesson learned? Evidently at least one group of people have a hard time taking responsibility.

Watch out, World

Madame Secretary is going to kick your butt if you misbehave!

I am nursing a cold today, or else I'd write more. But I decided that after months of lamenting Hillary not becoming President Hillary, I decided I should drag my rusty bones out of bed and say, Thank you, President Elect Obama. I can't wait for you guys to take over the world.

Okay, I'm going back to the couch now, but despite the aches and pains, and stuffy nose, there is a happy person in here somewhere.

Oh, and Bruce released his new video today, which in my drug-infused daze has something to do with "Lucky Day," which could sum up today. Hillary and Bruce news in one day. Be still my weak heart.
