Massive Development Set For Grand Canyon

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Conservatives, particularly in Utah, get pissed anytime Obama sets a parcel or two aside for a national monument. I wish he did that for the entire grand canyon. Now ,instead, we're going to have massive development there:

Official Al Qaeda Hit List & Black OPs 2 !!!

Posted By Rod Kaufman

CNN highlighted Al Qaeda's most wanted today and although I couldn't locate their link, I did come up with:
http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2015/01/who-are-inspires-10-other-most-wanted.html
Some on CNN's Al Qaeda hit parade haven't survived the onslaught but others have. I'm surprised to see Geert Wilders is still with us. I'm guessing his bodyguards are are pretty darn good at what they do. Anyhow, since Al Qaeda has their hit list, it's high time we have ours. This means we have a rare moment of camaraderie wherein we eavesdrop on a conversation between Rod and Rich discussing their plans for a black ops mission...
Rod: "Rich, did you say something about hunting Antelopes?"
Rich: "No, you twit, I said hunting Ayatollahs!"
Rod: "Oh, ok." "So what's that box you're carving?"
Rich: "It's a gift box for that special bearded one". "With a little something extra inside."
Rod: "What's in it?"
Rich: "Fifty kilos of Semtex!" "We ain't talking fifty shades of grey here, buddy!"
Rod: "Where'd you get it?"
Rich: "Army surplus!"
Rod: "Well, we do have to do our part to take-out state sponsored terrorism." "BTW, who's our sponsor?"
Rich: "Anacortes and Wild Bird!"
Rod: "Well, I know how to deliver it."
Rich: "I'm all ears, bro." And remember, it's got to be bipartisan!"
Rod: "I had the little woman hand knit two veils, one red and one blue."
"We'll let the bearded one decide what to do"... 8)
