Please Tell Me You're Kidding!

Hello People. Every day, in every way, you seem to get dumber and dumber. Why is that? Could it be yet another effect of global warming? Where to begin....
A New Jersey teacher had her 3rd grade students write get well cards to convicted cop killer Mumia Abu-Jamal. The teacher, Marylin Zuniga, tweeted that the letters were delivered to the former Black Panther by "comrade Johanna Fernandez". Fernandez, a professor at Baruch College in NYC, put on her Farcebook page that she and the cop killer "shared a touching moment". Charming. She went on to say that "it had been a long time since we saw Mumia smile". Heartwarming, really. I wonder how long it's been since anyone has seen Maureen Faulkner smile. Who? She is the widow of Philadelphia police officer Danny Faulkner, who was murdered by Abu-Jamal in 1981. Faulkner was first shot in the back, then, while he lay on the ground, was shot 4 more times at close range. The good news is that the "teacher" was given a paid vacation while school officials investigate her actions.
Here's an interesting tidbit I picked up this week! Did you know that hundreds of Puerto Ricans are collecting Federal Disability Benefits in the U.S. because they don't speak English? Yup! Because Puerto Rico is a US Territory, Puerto Ricans are free to work in the US, but, why should they? The Social Security Administration has ruled that not speaking English makes our cousins to the south "less employable" and, therefore, disabled! That's worth about $735 a month. Not bad for not working! It makes one wonder how people who don't speak English well enough to work can read English well enough to navigate our Federal benefit's system. Weird, huh?
SmartTouch Media, a Las Vegas based company, came out with a fun, new app called "Rescue the Anorexia Girl"! It's a Whack-A-Mole style game where the players throw food at a sickly young girl. When players miss, the girl loses weight and eventually dies. What fun! Amazon had the common sense to pull the app from it's store but it's still available elsewhere. Wouldn't you have loved to be in on the meeting when someone decided this was a good idea and others agreed?
Finally, let me leave you with this: With the 2016 Presidential election mayhem already underway, Google released it's search trend data, relating to Presidential hopefuls, for the month of March. The number one thing American's wanted to know about the candidates......their height and age. We're doomed people. We're doomed.
