Please remember to vote tomorrow in the mid-term elections. If at all possible, vote for the zombie candidates.
They’re the candidates with braaaaaaaains.

Reason not to date nurses
If you’re dating a nurse, doctor or someone involved in the medical field, it night not be a good idea to make them angry. You could end up in a psych ward.
Big DUH Headline of the Day
In other related news, smoking hurts your lungs, being hit by an SUV could kill, and eating a donut may make your heart stop, especially if said donut is the fifty-third eaten in a row.
So, a naked couple runs into a Waffle House …
Stone Cold Genius of the Day
Apparently the requirements for “criminal mastermind” have sadly dipped lower and lower. Why, back in my day, inconspicuous meant looking a bush, not modern art.
And we walked fifteen miles, in the snow, to rob a bank.
The McBournie Minute: Ribbon magnets
They first started appearing in 2004. You would drive around and see a red, white and blue ribbon magnet with “Support Our Troops” or a yellow one with a similar message. It was the beginning of a new trend in automobile fashion.
The problem is, almost no one ever displays them in the proper manner. Most people tilt their ribbon magnets sideways to about 3 o’clock so that the text on the ribbon can more easily be read. Some people even tilt it completely over on its side like a Jesus fish.
People, the curvy part goes at 12 o’clock, the ends go at 6 o’clock. If you can’t display it properly, don’t display it at all. They look stupid on their sides.
What’s worse now is that every single cause out there has their own ribbon magnet. POW, cancer, puppies with diabetes, etc. Buying these things (in most cases) does nothing for the cause it advertises, since they are made by private companies that employ Chinese workers to make them.
You stick them to your car to make people think about how concerned you are about important issues, without actually being concerned. If the cause you advertise is so important to you it would be more about the cause and less about you.
