Heard today that YOUR Tweets will become record at the Library of Congress.  Someone could use those Tweets and discover things of the Tweetie and put the puzzle pieces together.  Who has time to do that?  Criminals who don’t live a real life, don’t have a real job,…

This brought a good laugh - Well, at least I enjoyed it:

Little Johnny is not an Obama fan:

A teacher asked her 6th grade class how many of them were Obama fans.

Not really knowing what an Obama fan is, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, all the kids raised their hands except for Little Johnny.

The teacher asked Little Johnny why he has decided to be different… again.

Little Johnny said, “Because I’m not an Obama fan.”

The teacher asked, “Why aren’t you a fan of Obama?” Johnny said, “Because I’m a Republican.”

The teacher asked him why he’s a Republican.  Little Johnny answered, “Well, my Mom’s a Republican and my Dad’s a Republican, so I’m a Republican.”

Annoyed by this answer, the teacher asked, “If your mom were a moron and your dad were an idiot, what would that make you?”

With a big smile, Little Johnny replied, “That would make me an Obama fan.”
