More George Dubya Quotes

"Families is where we find hope, where wings take dream."

Remarks to the troops of Fort Stewart, Georgia, February 12, 2001:
"And America needs a military where our breast and brightest are proud to serve, and proud to stay."

"For every fatal shooting, there were roughly three non-fatal shootings. And folks, this is unacceptable in America. It's just unacceptable. And we're going to do something about it."

'The problem with the French,' Bush confided to Blair, 'is that they don't have a word for entrepreneur.'

"Education is my top priority. However, education is not my top priority."

"A low voter turnout is an indication of fewer people going to the polls."

I can't believe no one's said anything about this! I don't know what speech it was, but I was watching Bush's address to teachers in the nation on NBC with some friends, and this error was GLARING. He said, and I quote,
"First I'd like to spank all the teachers..."

Bananas? In the US this would have been donuts...

Police in Cambodia have been accused of extracting confessions from two teenagers by force-feeding them bananas until they felt sick. Local newspapers say the pair was subjected to the unorthodox interrogation after being arrested on suspicion of stealing five bags of soap powder from a car parked in the capital, Phnom Phen. A top Cambodian policeman has denied any official wrong-doing. He says the two were hungry and annoyed and refused to answer questions but they were more forthcoming after eating the bananas.

Dude, Get Broadband

When Mark Walters received a $2,500 bill from his long-distance carrier, Denver-based Qwest, he figured it had to be a mistake. It was, and it was his daughter's boo-boo.
Elissa Walters, 18, had gone home to Springfield, N.J., for Christmas break, turned on a new computer and called an America Online number in the 973 area code - the Walters' home area. Figuring it was a free local call carried by their local carrier, Verizon Communications, she left the computer on. And on. And on. But just because the area code was the same, it didn't mean the call was local.
[ Now that is the definition of AO Hell]

Change Your Clocks 1 Hour Ahead (on Friday at 11am)

Yes, this is the week that we change our clocks ahead one hour to daylight savings time. What is it we're saving the daylight for anyway? I hardly see the sun during work days as it is...Which brings me to my next thought:
We change th clocks on Sunday, actually Saturday night as far as I'm concerned. This means we lose an hour of sleep (or partying, or whatever) during the weekend. Frankly, I think that sucks.
I say from now on we change the clocks at 11am on the previous Friday. Think about it - it makes the work day shorter by an hour (always a good thing), and after you change the clocks - you go to lunch!

Brilliant, eh? Everyone who agrees, please write your congressman. I'm sure they're not so busy that they could not take some time out to address this important issue that affects all of us.

Thank you.

I'm glad they're not joining the US though -- because, then I would have nowhere to go when this country (US) goes to hell.
