Meritorious Melons

The first two Yubari melons of the season were auctioned Friday in northern Japan and fetched $5,200. Pricey? Certainly. But it's practically a steal if you consider last year's winning bid — a record 2.5 million yen, or about $26,000. In 2007 they sold for about $20,000.

I haven’t heard of anyone spending that much on a pair of melons since Eliot Spitzer.

I Am John Galt

And I'm not alone.
Atlas is shrugging.
You parasites, looters and moochers of society can find someone else to bleed.
We're going to sit back and watch you starve.
I used to feel bad that I didn't have a 401(k). Thanks to the Messiah, most 401(k)s a worth next to nothing. Change you can believe in !

Shivering Gore

An ice sculpture of Al Gore by local artist Steve Dean is on display Monday morning, Jan. 19, 2009, at the corner of Airport Way and Cushman Street. A recent cold spell led to the sculpture of the Nobel Peace Prize recipient recognized for raising awareness of the global warming hoax.
