West Nile Virus

 

The US is in the middle of it's worst outbreak of West Nile ever.

So I got to wondering where is all of this West nile anyways? On the internet I found west nile maps and stats The url is diseasemaps.usgs.gov The Number one state with West Nile
by a long shot, is Texas. Texas has 733 cases. Mississippi is next with 98 cases. But Texas? West Nile is spread by mosquitos. I thought Texas was in drought. Maybe God is punishing those texas republicans. Either that or they've got a pond behind the shack. Or too many old tires out back. Illinois was fourteenth on the list with 21 cases. But I live in Chicago. The Chicago Police have a ban on mosquitos. Last night I walked over to the farmers market and not a single bite. In Chicago we don't worry about mosquitos. Getting shot yes. Mosquitos no.

Chicago Gun Violence

On twitter this mornings I found these tribune headlines. 

Colorado shooting families blast fundraising charities. Cops wound gunman after fatal shooting in Gresham neighborhood. Yesterday Facebook friend Jerry posted. Afraid of Belfast on the 12th of July. "I'm from the South Side of Chicago -- I'll be safer in Belfast." So I got to thinking. How did we get here? In 1783 An american army comprised largely of militias chased the english back to england. In 1791 congress passed the Second amendment to the constitution. The second amendment guaranteed americans the right to bear arms in support of militias. In 1920 congress passed the eightheenth amendment starting prohibition. In 1933 To stem the lawlessness of prohibition the eighteenth amendment was repealed. In 1934 and 38 new federal firearms laws were enacted. In 2008 and 2010 new Supreme Court interpretations bolstered the second ammendment and dramatically diminished the authority of state and local governments to limit gun ownership. And here it 2012. Last weekend in Chicago 46 people were shot. Nine fatally. Congress has reacted to gangsterism in the past. History repeats itself.

Street Art Jumped The Shark



When street art started it was really cool.


Banksy was doing his thing in London. Space invader was plastering up his little tiles. Obey was posting little handbills on traffic poles. But then it started becoming comercial. Then the hats started coming out. And now street art has completely jumped the shark. Microsoft has a new add campaign for surface. It's their new tablet. Which looks pretty cool. I guess it makes sense. Advertisting is temporary. Exactly like street art.

Pink Slime


Your internet home for trending news and events. Oh, this is so sick. As if fast food wasn't bad enough  70 % of American ground beef contains pink slime What's pink slime. Pink slime is rendered fat. Pressure treated. Centrifuged. Then processed with gaseous ammonia. To kill the germs. It's a super cheap filler. They add the pink paste to ground beef to make it more colorful. It's added to 70 % of restaurant and supermarket ground beef. And guess what. The FDA signed off on this. Pink slime is considered beef, No special label no nothing. No more ground beef for me.

300 Million Year Old Forest



A 300 million year old fossilized forest has been found by miners in northern China. The forest was buried in a Pompei like volcanic eruption. Archeologist have unearthed intact specimines of 300 million year old fossilized trees. The trees are said to be very well preserved. Since the earths climate 300 million years ago was similar  to today's. Comparing the fossil record with that of modern flora and fauna. Provides an insite into the earth's climate cycles.

To give you an idea of how old 300 Million is: The earth was formed 4.5 billion years ago. Single cell organism's formed 3.8 billion years ago, hotosynthesis first occured 3 billion years ago. Simple animals first appeared 600 million years ago. Fish first appeared 500 million years ago Plants appeared 475 million years ago. 300 million years ago when the volcano errupted. Reptiles were just starting to walk on land. 65 million years ago the dinosaurs died out. 2.5 million years ago cavemen appeared. 200,000 years ago modern humans appeared. And a little over 2000 years ago christ died for our sins.

Avalanche Airbag - Mardi Gras Fat Tuesday


In Washington state three skiers got killed in an Avalanche. One lady didn't get killed. Cause she was wearing an Avalanche Airbag. So I got to thinking, why doesn't every skier wear an Airbag? Maybe they are too expensive. Hey. I could start an airbag rental store. But then I live in Chicago. Not many Avalanche's here.

Tommorrow is Fat Tuesday. Concluding the Mardi Gras season. Which includes weeks of parades. Balls. Beads. and Parties. After Mardi Gras people can hunker down for Lent.

Heart Attack Grill - Daytona 500


A man suffered a heart attack at the Heart Attack Grill in Las Vegas. He was chowing down a 6,000-calorie Triple Bypass Burger. The owner of the place refers 
to himself as Doctor. His servers are called nurses. Customers are refered to as patients. Orders are prescriptions. Maybe the cook is called the mortician!


This time of year sucks. Football is over. I don't watch college hoops. Pro basket ball heats up and the bulls are doing good.But it's not football. Nascar starts this weekend with the Daytona 500. Yawn. Not.

Jeremy Lin - Shakira Sea Lion



It's Linsane. It's Linsanity.Jeremy Lin is an overnight sensation. In Taiwan they are crazy for him. They're packing the bars at 8 in the morning to see him play. He's asian American. Grew up in North Carolina. Played college ball at Harvard, so he's pretty smart. He's a gym rat. He was dropped by both golden state and houston. before being picked up by the Knicks. Where he sat on the bench. Until the knicks coach said why not. And he put him in. Since then he's been on fire. He's averaged 27 points and 11 assists in the last 6 games. Those numbers are lincredibly good. The Knicks has been a Lincrease in attention. I think I'm getting Lindigestion.


Shakira was on vacation in South Africa. While visiting the ocean she came upon a group of Sea Lions. She tought they were cute. So she decided to go pet one. Not a good idea. She got about a foot away. When mama sealion shot out of the ocean and snapped our tourist. Shakira claims the sealion mistook her Blackberry for fish food. Ok hold on. Since when do blackberrys look like a fish? Shakira is a rock star. What's she doing with a Blackberry? Should'nt she have an iPhone?

Adele - Pinterest

Before the Grammy's people would mention Adele. And, I'd be like who? You know, Adele? And, I'd be like who? So last night I watched the Grammys. And Adelle was on. And guess what? I've heard her on the radio. And that's one of those songs that you hum along with.





















The Pinterest website. Oh my god. This is the best website. I'm a Pinterest junky. I've been pinning, creating boards. Repinning. Oh it's freaking amazing. But then I'm kind of a visual guy by nature. Let's see. I've got a YouTube board. A Chicago board. A hair board, don't ask. I've got a I work at a Tent Company board. And oh man, girls are repinning the tent pictures to the Wedding Boards like crazy. I've got a Rock and Roll board. An actors board. A food board and a Tattoo board. I must be forgeting something. Any way. When you first start up they want me to use the book mark pin deal. That didn't work at all. So I went to the Google app store and found an app that worked. Some people might not get past the config. It requires a little bit of configuration but it's worth it. So go out log onto Pinterest, NOW!  Wow it's that cool.
