Album Review Band: Bad Company Album: Straight Shooter Year: 1975 Some people think that Bad Company’s second album, Straight Shooter, is better than their debut. They are wrong. First, like their debut, there only eight songs which is pretty weak from a "super group" such as this. On second thought, maybe they only had four four really good tracks and had to add four filler songs just to get to eight. Methinks they should have spent more time in the studio. Also, the lyrics are mostly garbage. Aside from that, Paul Rodgers is pretty awesome and there are a couple great songs. The rest are mostly decent tunes with a turd thrown in there (Anna). Bad Company's best songs have a heavy guitar crunch that is pure kick ass and there is enough of that here to say it is a nice sophomore outing. Here is the list: Good Lovin' Gone Bad ★★★★ Obvious classic and best song on the whole dang thing. Feel Like Makin' Love ★★★★ Who does not love a good powe...

Hillary Clinton has been telling America that she is the most qualified candidate for president based on her 'record,' which she says includes her eight years in the White House as First Lady (or 'co-president'), her seven years in the Senate, and time as the Secretary of State. Here is a reminder of what that record includes: As First Lady, Hillary assumed authority over Health Care Reform, a process that cost the taxpayers over $13 million.  She told both Bill Bradley and Pat Moynahan, key votes needed to pass her legislation, that she would 'demonize 'anyone who opposed it.  But it was opposed. She couldn't even get it to a vote in a Congress controlled by her own party. (And in the next election, her party lost control of both the House and Senate.) Hillary assumed authority over selecting a female Attorney General.  Her first two recommendations (Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood) were forced to withdraw their names fr...

Pregnant turkey  One year at Thanksgiving, my mom went to my sister's house for the traditional feast. Knowing how gullible my sister is, my mom decided to play a trick. She told my sister that she needed something from the store. When my sister left, my mom took the turkey out of the oven, removed the stuffing, stuffed a Cornish hen, inserted it into the turkey, and re-stuffed the turkey. She then placed the bird(s) back in the oven. When it was time for dinner, my sister pulled the turkey out of the oven and proceeded to remove the stuffing. When her serving spoon hit something, she reached in and pulled out the little bird. With a look of total shock on her face, my mother exclaimed, "Patricia, you've cooked a pregnant bird!" At the reality of this horrifying news, my sister started to cry. It took the family two hours to convince her that turkeys lay eggs! , Yep..................SHE'S BLONDE
