Free-Style Blogging: Let's Talk About ...........

Ok, take notes kids, this is how this works. We take some news items and political topics, such as climate change and Edward Snowden, and then mix them in with general things, such as Turkish Airlines (tonight's sponsor......yeah, that is a joke, but we hear they are great to fly with). And, then we make a complete blog entry out of them, which should get us noticed in Slovenia.

The topics will be marked with a single parenthesis.

Let's get rolling:

"Hmmmm..........I've noticed whenever I watch Fox News, they never seem to talk about 'climate change' even though all the glaciers in 'Iceland' are melting. Perhaps, this is because their average viewer lacks the attention span to read one 'Archie Comics.' But, they've been sooo brain-washed that at this point they would vote for 'Darth Vader' if he had an R by his name.

Of course, folks to the left of me (yes, there are always some of these people except in Provo, Utah), are focused on 'Bradley Manning' and the 'NSA.' My advice to 'Edward Snowden' would be to get on a 'Turkish Airlines' flight from Moscow to Istanbul where he can work at a tea house and inexplicably go unnoticed, but his narcissist ego may not like that.

There is also a lot of talk about the controversial 'Rolling Stone' cover, but no one mentions the fact that the cover story about the Boston Marathon bomber is quite well-written. And, in case, one is wondering, it's now 70 degrees and cloudy in 'Greensboro, NC'..........thanks for that info, Mr. Google.' 

Chicago Teenager Has Perfect NCAA Brackets!

Alex Hermann, 17, has made national headlines by somehow managing to pick every NCAA Tournament game correctly so far. (As we write this, Butler is beating Syracuse 5-0, so one more team from my Final Four could be gone. Georgetown and Villanova have biten the proverbial dust so far!).

Hermann, who is autistic and lives in the Chicago area, picked Northern Iowa to upset Kansas, Ohio to beat Georgetown and Cornell to whack Wisconsin.

The odds of such success is one in 13,460,000! Hermann has said that he was shocked by his success, but as he told various media outlets: "I am very good with math."

My other Final Four team West Virginia is in the Sweet 16, but one of the their star players was injured in practice this week.

We are picturing the Kansas State Wildcats cheerleaders in this entry because that team is set to face Xavier (Ohio) in the Sweet 16, and we think one of them should actually date a smart guy like Hermann.....but, we all know Archie always gets the girl over Jughead!
