Weekly Thought Bonaza Feb 8th


On Monday I produce a column called “The Weekly Thought Bonanza”. The column is based on all of the random thoughts that run through my head all week, and trust me there are a plethora of them. I will try to share as many of these thoughts as I can, so each one of my readers can think just a little bit extra over the coming week.


The Super Bowl did not disappoint yesterday. New Orleans not only won a championship they put a little bit of joy into a city that has endured so much in the past few years. A feel good story if I ever seen one.

Do people realize that getting a free credit report always has strings attached?

President Obama has invited Republican leaders to join their Democratic counterparts at a televised White House meeting on Feb. 25 to discuss possible compromises on health care legislation, promising to "go through systematically all the best ideas that are out there and move it forward." Do you think Obama and congressional Democrats will seriously consider Republican ideas on health care reform?

President Ronald Reagan would have been 99 years old today. Does anyone like me feel that the Reagan Revolution would have been just as good today as before? Does Obama equal Jimmy Carter?

I picked the wrong week to buy a Toyota truck, didn’t I?

Ellen on American Idol will certainly spice up the show a bit however; Howard Stern replacing Simon Cowell next season will put the ratings through the roof.

The Super Bowl commercials were a major disappointment this year except for the commercial with the killer whale that gets dropped back into the ocean after the bachelor party.

Hollywood stars at the Super Bowl makes me think that they are there to socialize not watch a game. Give the tickets to real fans.

Can global warming now be put to rest in Washington D.C.? The citizens of our nation’s capital are about to be hit with 50 inches of snow in a five day period.

Rep. John Murtha, the tall, gruff-mannered former Marine who became the de facto voice of veterans on Capitol Hill and later an outspoken and influential critic of the Iraq War, died Monday. He was 77. The Pennsylvania Democrat had been suffering from complications from gallbladder surgery. He died at Virginia Hospital Center in Arlington, Va., with his family at his bedside, the hospital said.

Murtha was a perennial target of critics of so-called pay-to-play politics. He routinely drew the attention of ethical watchdogs with off-the-floor activities, from his entanglement in the Abscam corruption probe three decades ago to the more recent scrutiny of the connection between special-interest spending known as earmarks and the raising of cash for campaigns.

Murtha defended the practice of earmarking. The money, he said, benefited his constituents.

The Weekly Thought Bonaza Thought of the week; - Authorities said a man accused of stealing a car then reporting it stolen remains in custody after telling police he was robbed at gunpoint while trying to buy crack cocaine with a credit card. Great move moron.
