Weekend remainders

A guy used an android app on his phone to prove he couldn’t have been going as fast as the officer claimed he was.  The cop claimed he was going 15 M.P.H. over the speed limit when, in fact, he had never exceeded the speed limit.  In court, the cop admitted he had never calibrated his radar.  So I wonder how many other people wrongfully received tickets. 

A couple of weeks ago it was reported that a married-with-children congressman had placed a personal ad of himself shirtless.  He abruptly resigned.  Many at the time scratched their heads because it just didn’t seem like that big of a deal.  Well, then came the news that was also soliciting a cross-dressing prostitute.  Oops.

Ever heard of the term "mope"?  Neither had I.  I'll save you clicking on the link:  It is a guy willing to do porn for as little as $50 and some food.  Giving him a place to crash is a real payday(money shot?).  If you're interested in the dark underbelly of porn click here.

A teacher blogged (negatively) about her students and she lost her job.  Not surprisingly, I have mixed feelings about this.

Friday's jobs numbers were good and maybe even better than they appear.

Rush Limbaugh has insinuated that Michelle Obama is fat.

And finally, Cedar Rapids has its own rap.

I’m not sure what to think of it except that I doubt the Chamber of Commerce will be using it in their promotions.
