Thanks for Nothin’

     Who decided that dogs want to eat vegetables? Dogs have been meat-eaters since time began, but in the past few years some dog food makers have decided that dogs like vegetables. I want to know how they came to that conclusion ~ did a “Dog Whisperer” discover that idea from some spaced-out poodle.  They durn sure didn’t ask any of my dogs.  You lay a piece of broccoli or a carrot in front of my german shepard and he’ll look at you like you crawled out from under the chicken house.  In dog words ~ Thanks for Nothin’.

     Who decided that it was OK to leave all that space junk floating around up there around the earth?  Apparently all the guys in charge of the space program were kids whose parents never made them pick up their toys.  Ya’ll seen all that junk floating up there?  I saw it the last time my alien friends came to give me a ride.  Dang near hit a CIA Satellite when we were up there cruisin’ the Milky Way.  That would have been a real kick in the pants ~ Uncle Sam would’ve lost his eye in the sky for a while.  Thanks for Nothin’.

     Who decided that the guy who wants to do everything “first” needed to be on television with Jay Leno on the Tonight Show?  Does he not have enough to do trying to keep the country out of hock?  Is he going to do his “promise” routine, or something a little funnier?  Thanks for Nothin’.

     Why is it not alright for homeless people to sleep in an airport or bus terminal late at night?  Those chairs aren’t being used for anything else, and if the poor folks can actually sleep there, where’s the problem?  Just ’cause some fancy pants businessman/woman leaving the airport might have to walk in front of a dirty person ~ oooohhhhhhh ~ ’scuse me for livin’. Thanks for Nothin’.

     And finally, who decided it was OK for those dimwits at AIG to spend all our money by giving it away.  It don’t matter that it was “only 1/10th of the total package”.  Do you know how many homeless people that little ole 1/10th would have fed?   And now that the cat-is-out-of-the-bag, who says they’re going to give any of it back.  Thanks for Nothin’.

     I had to let the other half of my split personality out for a while and she managed to get this whole blog done before I could stop her.  Please excuse any southern slang or hillbilly thinking that escaped while I was away.  I do agree, however, with all the ideas expressed ~ especially that one about the dog food!
