Woman Rebukes Robber in the Name of Jesus. . .

. . .and robber leaves.

Well, there really is power in the name of Jesus.

"The man in the hooded sweatshirt wore sunglasses and started pointing a gun. Chadwick remembers the exchange she had with the man. "We thought it was a joke," she said. "He comes in and says, 'Give me your money!' And I said, 'There's no money. It's all gone.' And he said, 'No, I'm serious. I want your money!' And I said, 'No.'"

The gunman became irate and started pounding on the glass counter with the gun, but Chadwick wasn't fazed. "I looked him straight in the eye and I said, 'In the name of Jesus, I command you to get out of my store. You are bound by the Holy Spirit and you are leaving.'"

As Chadwick argued with the gunman, her customer, Kathy Vereen, soon had attention pointed her way. "He started backing up and then he pointed the gun at me and said, 'Get down on the floor.' And I remember thinking, 'I don't think so,'" said Vereen.

The frustrated gunman turned and left the store with nothing. No shots were fired and no one was injured." SOURCE

Well, there you have it.

A Nerd We Can Believe In

Here is another one from Jay. Here Jay explains his take on the economic situation and why we should love nerds. lol

Chris Rock Calls Out Bill Clinton For His Non-Support of Obama

I happened to catch former President Bill Clinton on David Letterman last night and was utterly taken aback by his bitter nonsupport of Barack Obama. Even after, David Letterman gave him opportunity after opportunity to endorse our future President Barack Obama.

Let me just state that I am still angry at Bill Clinton for his affair with Monica Lewinsky. Why? Because that affair laid the foundation for the culture war that cost Al Gore the election. After all of the support African-Americans have shown the Clinton's, his enormous ego won't allow him to throw his support full-fledged behind Barack Obama.

This Is Scary.

A 2002 story for the Florida Sun-Sentinel, was "accidentally" republished as new on the internet. What was so damning about the article, you ask? Well, the article indicated that United Airlines had filed for bankruptcy, which it had, six years ago.

A reporter from Income Security Advisors picked up on the ill published article, sent it to Bloomberg, and inadvertently sent United Airlines stock into a freefall. The United Airlines stock fell 76%, NASDAQ halted trading, and when trading resumed, the stock rebounded. Yet it closed down about 10%.

So, now the blame game starts. No one wants to blame the reporter, the Tribune Company that owns the Sun Sentinel blames Google and Google blames the Tribune Company.

Couldn't someone send the stock market into disarray ON PURPOSE as a scam or some type of financial terrorism.

This is scary.

Snoopy Animator Dies

Bill Melendez, animator for Charles Schulz Peanut characters, died today at the age of 91. I always enjoyed the Charlie Brown holiday cartoons. That's one part of childhood that I think is universal to all of us.

For some reason, this news makes me think of the lyrics to one of my favorite songs by Brian McKnight. It's called, I Remember You. You ma not have heard of it unless you bought his second album by the same name.

I love poetry and this song lyrically is so beautiful. This is the chorus:

[b-sec]
You wore pigtails and hand-me downs
I banged the piano
Played the clown
And though time slips away
It can never replace
How you'll always be here in this heart of me

[chorus]
Lucy and Linus and Charlie Brown
Oh how Snoopy he never left the ground
Oh that is true
You remember me like I remember you

Carol McCain - The Other McCain Wife

Who is that lovely lady smiling as her husband returns home from five years imprisonment in a North Vietnamese prison? Why that is none other than Mrs. Carol McCain, the faithful first wife of the US Senator. The wife that is conveniently left out of the McCain narrative and commercial footage of him as a POW.

Normally, this kind of delving into someone's personal life does not interest me. As a woman, I have been personally offended by the numerous attacks on the character of Mrs. Michelle Obama. The ladies over at Michelle Obama Watch have got her back. So I have decided to cover the ladies McCain.

As the story goes Carol McCain (formerly Shepp) was the wife of John McCain's fellow midshipman at the Naval Academy. One year after her divorce, she married John McCain in 1965. Two years later, his plane was shot down over North Vietnam and he became a prisoner of war for five years. During that time, Carol raised their children and became active in the POW-MIA movement.

Unfortunately, during this time, she was involved in a car accident in 1969 that left her severely injured. Some reports state that as a result of her surgeries she lost 4-5 inches in height. According to the LA Times, John 'War Hero" McCain confided to his friends that she was not the woman he had married.

In 1979, five years after returning home from Vietnam and still married to Carol, John meets Cindy McCain (formerly Hensley) at a military reception. He actively pursues the young model 17 years his junior. One month after his divorce to the mother of his child, he marries the young heiress.

With a new wife, who was young, healthy and wealthy by his side John McCain embarked on his political career. And so began the narrative of the maverick.

More on Cindy McCain in the upcoming days. . .

My Interview With Insane Mccain *

Photo: Fark

Me: Hello Senator it's an honor to meet you.

McCain: Hello there youngun. Good to be here.

Me: A lot has been said about you. I would like you to define yourself. Describe a day in the life of John McCain.

McCain: Well, er uh, Cindy comes in from her wing of the house and resuscitates me, pops my Duracell into the old pacemaker and sits me on the lawn until noon. Then one of my campaign workers briefs me on what to say and I forget so he writes it on my hand.

Me: OOOKAAY. How do you feel about Obama?

McCain: I love her very much. She is 97 years old ya know.

Me: No Senator, Obama. I said Obama.

McCain: Oh, I thought you said yo' mama. I am hip to the lingo of these whipper snappers. Word to your momma.

Me: Wow. How do you respond to criticism over the war in Iraq. . . Senator? Senator? Hey somebody get some help over here!!!

Enters Cindy McCain with a defibrillator and jolts him back to life.

McCain: What was that question again?
