Weekend Roundup

G'day Everyone from the wild and wet weather of PA!

Today, I start with a rant. The Bailout money, expected to be approved at any moment by Congress and sent for President Bush to sign, is generating OUTRAGE at this point. Especially for McCain and Obama who shouldn't have debated while this was going on. Obama might have "won" that debate as he pushed for it, but he could lose the whole election at this point if he insists on another one. But both senators had better be working with congress at this point because it's going to follow either man into the next Presidential life like a stone tied around their neck.

It's amazes me that we have a budget problem in this nation. We don't have ANY MONEY. Yet, Congress says "let's print $700 billion dollars and TAX THE PEOPLE!!" Will these political people be brave enough once they pass this "bill" and then go home to face the wrath of the voters? I think they might want to start looking for a NEW JOB this October. I wish them luck. Nobody is going to hire an EX-political person.

Even the same, I get picked on by friends of mine who want me to run for the Position of President (either Gallaudet University or the USA position). I turn them down. Thanks but NO THANKS. That job is a THANKLESS JOB. Who wants to mess with history? Not me, thank you!

All eyes will be glued on Wall Street and watching the first 10 minutes of the opening session. I don't want to say what will happen. Good or Bad, it will be an impact on our economic life.

Ok, rant over and back on track here. Whatever happens in the next few days, the political outrage will continue. The legacy of Bush grows more stinky.

Meanwhile, USA and USSR (Russia) have a new problem. China is fast setting up a SPACE RACE. China just completed it's first major space walk and if anything is possible, a SPACE STATION might be in the works next. I was going.. "Hey China, save your money. Join the International Space Station (ISS)". But you know, China loves to isolate itself. They're doing that so well, just like North Korea. So much for the Olympics of this past summer.

Hollywood Movie Star Paul Newman dies of cancer. Major Salute! That big blue eyed actor was my hero and my love struck crush when I was young. The favorite movies: Cool Hand Luke and The Sting. He was also a very gentle soul. God Bless you, Paul Newman. We'll miss you.

If you think football weekend's best game was the Michigan vs Wisconsin, think again! I salute Michgan for their preservance to STRIKE BACK at the Wisconsin badgers and send them packing back home and keeping them win less in Michigan stadium. But, the "BIG HOUSE" belongs to Penn State University!
Last night, on national prime time TV, PSU Lions and the Fighting Illini (Illinois) had a major slug fest in the first half, till a major penalty got hit on illini and the Lions didn't look back after that. At the second half, both teams kept going in full speed. It became clear that PSU was juicing the Juice (Illini QB Juice Williams) out of power plays. Poor Illini QB guy. He might want to drink a lot of Apple juice that we're sending him from the happy valley of PA. PSU wasn't in the mood of revenge on last year's defeat by illini. They stayed FOCUSED! Play smart and WIN! PSU went to 5-0. Illini dropped to 1-3.
Did you see beaver Stadium decked out in WHITE? That was cool! But for the illini fans, one suggestion: Plan your seating suggestion better. that "orange I" formation was a bad set up. It looked like an "8" to me in that illini student section!

As the leaves are changing, this should be the week that our beloved Gallaudet University Bisons get ready for another Road Trip to Becker College near Boston, MA. Will the Bisons learn the 3 lessons of losses and put together a first win? I hope we can salvage the season and start with a 1-3 win that will lead to other wins. Let's hope our herd is ready with Horns sharpened.

The weekend is over now. The busy week begins. Have a SEMPER FI week as we head into October 2008.
And to my Jewish readers, Happy Jewish new year that begins this week.
