France Fixes Parking Problem

Parking can be a problem.  How can you get more cars into a limited amount of space?

french_parking

Well, France has a novel approach. Stackable cars.

Why not?  We have stackable washing machines, stackable wine glasses, stackable drawers, and of course stackable furniture.  The next step is obviously stackable cars.

The world has a limitless number of stackable, aka Jenga-like things.

So if you want to find more stackable items, check out this website:

Never Expected To See Trump and Brilliant In Same Sentence

And I still haven’t seen it.

trump_phd

We are not talking about PhD brilliant.  Just ordinary once in a while surprise brilliant.  It happens.  But not in this case.

Here is a great example. Just the other day somebody posted a website that said Jim Cramer had a brilliant idea.  Now that is a good example of once in a while surprise brilliant.

But for the Donald, it hasn’t happened yet.

Wait a minute.  Hold it…  Come on…..   You can hold it….

Nope, not yet.

Oshkosh By Gosh Gets Cash For Non-Posh Says Josh

Yes, Oshkosh will be providing the new Humvee replacement for the military.

Now I dare you to say the title fast three times!

This is a big deal for Oshkosh.  The contract is worth a potential $30 billion.

Over 50,000 of the new non-posh vehicles could be built if the entire contract is exercised.

And you thought they only made baby clothes.

Now you may be wondering who Josh is?  He is a family friend who lives in Colorado.  I am sure he would have said this if I asked him to.

Elizabeth Warren will be the next Vice President

Elizabeth says she is not running for President.  But how about Vice President?

elizabeth

Okay.  I will take that as a maybe.

Young voters of the Jon Stewart generation are clamoring for truth in politics.  And they know (cue the Carly Simon music) nobody does it better than Elizabeth.

The “quit screwing the consumer” Congresswoman, has high admiration from all members of generations x, y and z.

Therefore, Elizabeth is the obvious choice for clinching the Democratic primary.

So Bernie or Hillary, which of you will be the first to get her in your camp?

PS The Carly Simon song would make a great tune on the campaign trail.
