I noticed something recently: most of the folks with a "God is my Co-pilot" bumper sticker on their car should probably just let Him drive.
Also, have you noticed that the guys with the "Terrorist Hunting Permit" stickers don't seem to be throwing a very wide net? I mean, if a terrorist shows up at the farmer's market or the Super Walmart, he's a dead man - but otherwise I don't think these guys are gonna pull their limit.

A Good Set of Bumpers...

Get a bigger bumper
How has this escaped the public eye, especially in a political year? I just caught wind of Backjumping - the ultimate extreme sport (wink, wink).
I can see it now: candidates fighting each other to see who can be first to come out against this threat to the moral fiber of America:
Quick, call your local vinyl ribbon printer and claim a color for the new "Support People Against Backjumping" ribbon. They're gonna have to pull a double at ribbon magnet plants around the globe to get these to market on time. Oh well, eight year olds don't need much sleep.
See what happens when the Democrats take control of congress? First the original Wendy's closes, now it's not safe to walk down the street.

Repealin' the Double-Deuce
On behalf of comedy writers everywhere, I'd like to propose repealing the 22nd Amendment (you can find out what it is here - go ahead, I'll wait).
If a picture is worth a thousand words than a bumper sticker is worth...well, no that comparison kind of falls apart. Still, I think this one is priceless:

Another Special Interest Group?
Well, the elections are only a few weeks away, so the Democrats are trying to gain control and the Republicans are trying to distance themselves from the President and every page boy's #1 fan, Mark Foley.
With every vote needed, I'm sure the candidates are courting all the fringe voters, like this group:

I know, I know -- you're out there saying "that's mean." Hey, I'm just joking around; I really don't mean to offend anynoe.
Seriously, I'm just making a joke (it's what I do).
But you know what I think is offensive to people to with dyslexia...
...calling their condition DYSLEXIA. I mean, that's like a 28 point Scrabble word right there. They don't even use that word at spelling bees. Homeschooled kids spell it wrong.
All I can figure it's done to gather sympathy. You're there, reading about people who get the letters mixed up when reading and you come to it:
"d-y-l-s...no d-e-l-y-x...no d-i-c-l... damn this sucks!"
If there was ever a condition that needs an acronym, this is it. I suggest we rename dyslexia something like "Scrambled Syllable Simplex," you know, "SSS" for short.
That way, when someone with dyslexia has to read about it, they get to "SSS" and get it right on the first try. You know, kind of a confidence builder.

Here Kitty Kitty Kitty
There’s something I’ve been tempted to blog about, but I held back, so I wouldn’t look mean-spirited – until now. I'm not really ranting about this, but it does make me wonder.
Here’s what started it: The other day I was driving behind a car with one of those ribbon magnets on it. Now, I think the whole ribbon thing is a little over-played, but it’s a free country and I get it, you support something, you love old Tony Orlando songs, and you need something to cover that dent from when you backed into a parking meter.
I’m a big supporter of our troops, so I get the “Support our Troops” ribbon, the “Bring Our Troops Home Safe” ribbon, the somber “MIA” ribbons. I also get the Cure Cancer ribbons – even the Raise Autistic Awareness ribbons. Good causes, nice message.
But this ribbon wasn’t for any of those things.
This ribbon was to announce that the driver had,
get ready,
adopted a cat.
Don’t start bitching at me yet, I love animals – especially with a good sweet and sour sauce (just kidding…I prefer General Tso…anyway) – but I don’t think adopting a cat is worthy of it’s own ribbon magnet.
Now, if Fluffy wants to get together a few thousand of her feline friends and go help calm things down in Iraq, I’ll reconsider. But for now, if you get a cat, just let the smell and hair announce it to the world.
Which brings me to the topic I’ve been sitting on for a while…
This same driver had one of those license plates that features a special graphic and message for a particular cause. When you buy the plate, part of the money goes to the relevant cause.
This one was, of course, to support adopting pets.
Here’s my only problem with this. When you sign up for the plate, there are a few other choices you can support, you know things like Finding a Cure for Cancer or for Stopping Domestic Violence...
…and I’m pretty sure you get to see ALL of them when you sign up.
So, if you really think about it, isn't displaying a "adopt a pet" license plate the same as saying "Sorry about your Grandma's cancer -- if she were cute and fuzzy I'd care more?"
(Ok, I guess it was a rant after all.)
