Please forgive my woeful lack of research on that one.    I passed that 
one on from a conversation in a bar and didn't check it's accuracy,
so my apologies to Google and G-mail.    Thanks for correcting me on 
this one.   I do care about accuracy and the truth in my posts
and I got it wrong on this one.

I do have to say that I read Yahoo mail every day and they are just 
laughable in their very consistent and unwavering
dedication to the extreme right and the ultra convservative ethic in the 
US.........................all in the name of 'journalism'.

As Obama was delighting the entire world and the whole US,  they (and 
FOX news)  were running headlines on a daily basis 
saying that he was already making grave mistakes in his leading of the 
US people (this was before he was even sworn
in as president).    It was such a pathetic attempt to spin the news of 
his election that it was laughable.

I read the headlines from them because it is akin to reading a really 
stupid cartoon version of the news.
I find it entertaining.............................I mix it with things 
read in  the Guardian in the UK (for the doppleganger balancing effect);  
shake it;  stir it;   drink the mornings strong brew of french roast 
coffee and start trying to create some art to accomplish
something for the day................lol.

Okay, okay, okay........................................no more 
politics,  I promise.

looper out!
