Redneck Ramblins

  • After spending $ 1.4 trillion, the administration is now freezing federal spending?
  • You can start by eliminating all the earmarks (campaign promise) and not buying votes for your legislation.
  • Hearing that Favre’s retirement hinges on his endorsement deal with Waffle House.
  • Ford posted a $ 2.7 billion profit for 2009 and is the only domestic carmaker to not get a gummit bailout. Ummmmmmmm.
  • Bubba is trying to figure out how every insurance company can save you $300-$400 compared to the others. He is now switching from State Farm, to Progressive and then to Nationwide and then to Geico…….For long he be getting insurance for free!
  • Have you noticed all the tax services that are advertising to do your 1040-EZ filing for $39? Seriously, if you need help with the EZ form, then you really do need help.
  • Common sense is now an oxymoron. Ain’t too common anymore.
  • Mrs. Redneck’s vehicle just alerted her that she had low tire pressure. She was not impressed with the smartness of the vehicle. She said that it should just send a message directly to me to fix it.
  • Obama’s new budget axes the NASA moon missions. That’s okay, we can just climb the trillions of dollars in deficit and reach the moon anyway.
  • Although I agree with Obama that there should be a playoff system in the top tier of NCAA football, please keep yer dang hands off of our beloved sport. The gummit ain’t got no bidness messing with it. It’s messed up enough already. Don’t ya even think about NASCAR or you might get hurt.
  • Happy Groundhog’s Day!
  • Pray for the troops.

You Can’t Make This Stuff Up

JOPLIN, Mo. – Police in Missouri say a man accused of stealing a ring coughed up the evidence while officers were questioning him.

Pictures of the two-carat diamond ring worth about $20,000 were sent to jewelers in the Joplin area after it was reported stolen when someone took the owner’s purse from her car on Thursday.

The Joplin Globe reports that the owner of Newton’s Jewelry recognized the ring when a man and woman came to his store a few hours after the theft and said they wanted to sell it. L.T. Newton and his staff stalled them and called police.

Police say the man swallowed the ring when officers arrived. While being questioned, he began to cough uncontrollably and eventually coughed up the ring.

The man and woman are charged with receiving stolen property.

Ain’t True

An auto shop owner in Sanibel totaled his customer’s Porsche when he took it out for “diagnostics,” hitting speeds as high as 164 mph and flipping the car on a road shoulder, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

Kenneth R. Kasten, 50, escaped without injury from the crash, which occurred on a curve by the Sanibel Tollbooth around 6 a.m. The 2008 Porsche Boxster suffered $50,000 in damage. It came to rest upside-down on the shoulder of McGregor Boulevard, east of the toll booth.

Kasten was charged with willful and wreckless driving and leaving the scene of a crash.

According to reports, the car’s owner dropped the car at Kasten’s shop, Sanibel Shell, for service on Wednesday. She was aware he had driven the sportscar home for diagnostics, the report said. She didn’t know about the wreck until notified by at trooper.

When discovered, the car was thought to be stolen. Kasten was later found at the toll parking lot at 11:30 a.m., according to the report.

He was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash, according to the report. Alcohol was not believed to be a factor.

Ain’t true that alcohol was a factor, but stupidity or lack of talent surely was.
